Pretty much every vacuum brand sold at big box stores seems to have some variety of pet-owner specific vacuums for sale. The only difference I see between them and normal vacuums is 1., neon colors, 2., a wacky set of attachments, and 3., a different set of filters. I've thought and still think that they're cool, but are they really necessary? I mean, pet hair isn't that hard to clean up on carpets to begin with. The only thing that I see as beneficial from them that can't just be bought from a normal vacuum is the unique filters, which are usually in the anti-odor variety. I've had Black Lab, and currently have a Pitbull. I've used nothing but non-pet vacuums, and they've worked good at cleaning up pet-hair.
I think the most guilty of companies that make these weird pet machines is Bissell. As far as I've been aware, they've been making these machines since the original Pet Hair Eraser. Like, do you really need that Pet Contour Tool, lint roller tool, and turbo brush with rubber beaters instead of regular bristles? Me personally, the perfect pet vacuum is one that's bagged, has a set of electric or air driven power brushes, and a charcoal filter of some kind. Everything else is unnecessary.
