The Vax UCUESHV1 Air Lift Steerable Pet Pro Vacuum Cleaner brings innovation to vacuuming with its removable cylinder compartment; once removed, this nifty part of the vacuum cleaner becomes its own handheld device which is designed to reach the more awkward places. We found this innovation more than useful, but it is worth noting that the cylinder is fairly heavy to hold and you would struggle to use it separately from the main body for long. Other benefits of this design worth mentioning include the washable filters and the easy-to-empty dust canister. The Air Lift Steerable Pet includes a 3-in-1 tool, which has a brush, crevice and upholstery head. Conveniently, this clips to the side of the Air Lift when not in use, meaning it’s easily accessible. A Turbo Tool is also included, which is a bear-claw like head designed for getting-up more heavily embedded mess such as pet hair. The rubbery claws do well at digging into upholstery to release stubborn dirt.

Use of the content you supply does not violate these Terms of Use and will not cause injury to any person or entity.This power switch is the reason I’d recommend the V12 to people with pets, ahead of Dyson’s other vacuums. It takes away the need to constantly hold down a button. This makes it easier to swap hands and navigate obstacles like sofas, dog toys and feeding bowls. All this is especially effective with the hair screw attachment which comes included in the price. (Standard cleaning heads are often defeated by long pet hairs.) The Vax UCUESHV1 Air Lift Steerable Pet Pro Vacuum Cleaner would suit those who endure the difficulties of pet hair removal. It's a great performer on the carpet, but not so much on floorboards, so perhaps seek out alternative options if you have hard floors. The Air Lift uses multi-cyclonic technology, which ensures there’s no loss of suction regardless of the contents of the bin. Using our suction meter, I found that the Air Lift had 19.5kPa of suction when empty and indeed this was maintained when the bin was at capacity. It’s not the highest score we’ve seen, especially from a corded vacuum but, in testing, it proved more than adequate. A good pet vacuum needs special attachments for removing pet hair, which can be finer than human hair, making it more likely to cling to fabrics due to static electricity. Hair can also easily clog the bristles of a standard vacuum cleaner head, reducing its ability to sweep up dirt. That is, or may reasonably be considered to be, defamatory, libelous, hateful, racially or religiously biased or offensive, unlawfully threatening or unlawfully harassing to any individual, partnership or corporation;

Our buyer’s guide to the best vacuum cleaners explains the complicated matter of measuring suction, but as a rough guide, look for a 600W motor or higher. And, very importantly, remember to empty the receptacle as regularly as possible: a bag or cyclone cylinder filled to the brim with pet hair will drastically reduce the vacuum’s suction power. I used the hair-capturing EcoBrush head on my carpets, which uses the suction of the vacuum to spin the brush, scooping pet hairs into an aperture that’s narrower than on the standard Henry head so that the suction power is more focused. It’s very noisy and not quite as good as the motorised brushes on costlier pet vacs, but did a decent job of lifting hairs and was easy to push around.

The Vax Air Lift Pet Pro's steerable technology allows you to navigate smoothly around furniture and other obstacles with ease. That violates any law, statute, ordinance or regulation (including, but not limited to, those governing export control, consumer protection, unfair competition, anti-discrimination or false advertising); That’s where the Air Lift’s stretch hose will come in handy. You can detach it from the main brush head and attach one of the accessories, such as the crevice tool, to reach otherwise unreachable areas. The extendable hose stretches about 1.5m. The release is located at about ankle-height on the main unit, meaning transitioning isn’t the most seamless and you’ll have to bend down to unclip it. Additionally, the handle grip can also be detached from the upright unit and reattached to the hose to provide a better grip and additional, extendible, reach. The upholstery head is even smaller, for terrific suction, and has a lint brush ahead of the aperture. It’s best used in repeated, pulling-towards-you motions and took quite a bit of elbow grease, but achieved proper deep-clean results. The USP here is a flexible wand that bends in the middle, with a light on the end to allow you to clean under furniture more easily. It also means the cleaner folds in half for convenient storage. Another unique feature is Shark’s “DuoClean” floorhead which contains two motorised brush rolls – one of stiff bristles, the other of rubber fins that dig deep into carpets to release more pet dirt.
