Someone on here told be Dyson was overrated, what cordless stick vacuum has worked well for you as a multi-cat household

I generally trust Wirecutter and they recommend the Black+Decker 20V Max Dustbuster AdvancedClean+ Cordless Pet Hand Vacuum HHVK515JP0

2 cat l, 2 dog house: I have the Ryobi dual roller from this list and if you're in the US, the $250 sale price is a bargain with the 4ah battery and charger (don't be fooled by the single roller variant).

Then you have a battery that can run all kinds of other tools or gadgets you might want in the future.

I will say that if your primary use is handheld, then it is a bit awkward. But it's way better than the Dyson v8 we have upstairs.

Got the Dyson v10 just now, and its perfect! It has somesthing in the brush, which keeps the Cat Hair from tangeling up and it really works great, not a single Hair there! Not even one. We had a Miele before, spend 800 € on it and its complete trash. No power, loud, bad haptics, short runtime, and the brush is full of hair after 5 Minutes, it was unusable.
We spend 270€ on a used dyson on refurbed.de, local german web shop for used things. I seems like dyson has a own program, where they sell used refurbished devices. So the device is from dyson, but used. Very good condition.

Another thing fir me is, they sell every induviual Part of the vacuum seperatly, if something breaky, just buy that part new.

It is a bit loud, but mave that is just our house, the floor resonates 🙈

Whatever vacuum wars says.
