I am getting only one Christmas gift this year, a vacuum. Mine is on its last legs and with my animals and the need to keep the house spotless for Elliott, I will need a good vacuum. What is the best for pet hair? And it needs to be self propelled and hopefully with a retractable cord

The best vacuum in the world is one that comes with a person who is willing to vacuum every day. We have 1 dog and 4 cats and believe me, doesn't make much difference what type of vacuum cleaner you own...by the time you are done vacuuming the last room, the first room has pet hair again! It seems like a losing battle.

We have a Dyson, and it is the best vacuum that I have ever had. It is great on pet hair.

We also have a Dyson (specifically for pet hair) and we love it. It does a great job on the bare floors as well as on the carpeted areas. Also, you don't have to deal with vacuum bags.

I have an electrolux. Big mistake.

It has great suction, but the bags are expensive and way, way too small. With two dogs in the house I fill one bag entirely with one pass through the house. Also it's beater bar has broken three times in two years. It just cant handle the one little 6x9 shag rug under the kitchen table. All the rest of the carpets are short pile, and it does great there, but not on the long pile.

I would not buy it again.
