Dirt Devil Purpose for pets M140000 Review

Dirt Devil should be ashamed to put such a bad product on the market. The vacuum claims to be the "perfect pet for pet owners." Well, maybe if you have a hairless dog or cat. I saw the claim and thought I found the solution to our dog's hair problem. We bought it at Wal-Mart for $85 and it was broken after 3 cleanings. The hair from our Sheltie got caught up in the shoddy-built floor roller and burned it up. Big chunks of plastic kept spitting out of the roller since it was froze up. Since it is a new model, the local vacuum repair store didn't have a replacement roller and needed to order one ($14.95).

Second problem with this thing is the absolutely way too small bagless container for dirt. We vacuum once a week and I had to empty the container before I was done vacuuming the living room.

Third problem is the HEPA filter between the floor suction unit and the bagless container. Again, after only 3 vacuumings, the HEPA filter was so clogged with dirt and dust that the vacuum had absolutely no suction at all.

We have a dog and two little kids, so yes, our house does get dirty. But, not more than any other average house.

This vacuum is one of the worst products I've ever owned.
