(Can the deep cleaner be used without the water as a regular vacuum?)
Any thoughts on the following vacuums? I have a dog that sheds A LOT.
Dirt Devil Reaction All-Surface Cyclonic; Bissell ProHeat Turbo; Bissll ProHeat 2X; Bissell Lift-Off Pet; Hoover Mach 5 Multi-Chamber Cyclonic; Hoover WindTunnel Deluxe Dirt Finder; Hoover Empower; Hoover WindTunnel Supreme; Eureka Capture w/ Spinduster; Eureka Boss Capture Plus; Eureka Boss 4D SpinDuster; Eureka Boss 4D; Eureka Boss SmartVac Ultra HEPA Deluxe; Eureka Boss SmartVac Ultra HEPA
I think deep cleaners are designed to work with water and NOT used as an EVERYDAY vacuum….
I would think that you would want a regular heavy duty vacuum to use on a daily basis…Especially, if you have a dog that sheds A LOT !
If you are looking for "ratings" and "opinions" of good/great vacuums try looking on epinions.com there they have TONS of opinions from regular people on all kinds of products/services.. That might help you MORE than Y/A !
*I’ve owned acouple dirt devils in the past and I think they SUCK and not in a good way….
Although, I don’t see it listed- I have a HOOVER SAVVY it retails for around $200 and I absolutely LOVE it…
*It’s an upright bagless
*Has onboard attachements for furniture,curtains,whatever, an extention wand and crevase tool
*It has 3 carpet level selections for high, med, and low pile carpet..
*It has a "push" assistance so it’s not heavy/hard to push
*It has a HEPA filter and an small little (?) filter
*Wide width head with rotating brush/light
*It has carpet/bare floors switch
*The service center is close to my house
However, the only thing(s) that I DO NOT like are:
*The cord is short so I use it with an extention- prob. solved
*The bagless feature can be messy- so I empty outside OR in the garage
*I’ve had to have it repaired….- I got the extended service warranty so for an extra 3 yrs. coverage ($100) it’s worth it ! I have an annual clean/check every 6 mnths. I just make up something is wrong and I get an almost brand new vacuum back !
*The filter(s) are EXPENSIVE if you buy them from an authorized HOOVER dealer they are around $40 for just the HEPA which can be replaced about every 2 yrs…. OR get them both for around $35 from AMAZON.com !
Grab a recent CONSUMER REPORTS they usually have a pretty good vacuum ratings system… OH about 4 yrs. ago the HOOVER SAVVY rated as GOOD or BETTER than the DYSON….
Good luck

Yes… you need a regular vacuum cleaner…. Get the best one you can afford. I love my Dyson, and have never regretted it…
