Best Stick Vacuum Cleaners for Pet Hair

TL;DR: The Mohomo Nova V5 delivers 55,000 Pa suction with a 650 W motor and a 22,400 mAh battery, but its 8‑lb weight and premium price may give budget shoppers pause.

What really stands out is the suction power – 55,000 Pa paired with a 650 W motor gives the Nova V5 plenty of pull for pet hair on carpet and hard floors. The anti‑tangle V‑shaped brush keeps fur from wrapping around the roll, a feature many users flag as a lifesaver for households with shedding pets.

At $129.99, the Mohomo sits in the same price band as the Jellypig model, yet it weighs 8.0 pounds compared with Jellypig’s lighter 6.3 pounds and is a touch lighter than the Shark HV322’s 8.6 pounds. Its suction pressure also outmatches the Jellypig’s 50 KPa and the KARDV’s 40 KPa, positioning it toward the high‑performance end of the lineup.

Reviewers consistently praise the LED touch‑screen for clear mode selection and the reusable cyclone filter that maintains suction over time. The 1.8‑liter dust cup and 99.99 % HEPA filtration keep pet dander contained, while the included motorized floor brush, crevice nozzle, 2‑in‑1 brush, and mini brush give you the tools to tackle corners, upholstery, and tight spaces. Battery capacity of 22,400 mAh translates to up to 70 minutes of runtime on low mode, though the max‑suction setting drops to a 20‑minute window. Maximum‑suction mode lasts only 20 minutes, reducing high‑power cleaning time.

Best for: Budget‑conscious buyers seeking a reliable entry‑level option

Avoid if: You want the best value‑per‑dollar in its price range

TL;DR: The Shark HV322 Rocket Pet Plus delivers 500 W of corded suction, a 25‑ft power cord and a convertible stick‑to‑handheld design, making it a solid, pet‑focused vacuum for homes where an outlet is nearby.

The standout spec is its 500 W motor paired with an 80 dB noise level, giving the vacuum the punch of a full‑size upright while staying under 10 lb (8.6 lb). Its 0.68‑qt XL dust cup holds more debris than many stick models, and the 25‑ft cord lets you clean larger rooms without hunting for a charger. The convertible design lets you snap the head off for handheld use, and the brush‑roll switch lets you turn the motorized brush on or off depending on the surface.

Compared with the other ten contenders, the Shark sits toward the heavier end – it outweighs the Black+Decker (5.0 lb) and Levoit (6.17 lb) models and is a touch heavier than the Mohomo (8.0 lb) and Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal Plus (7.4 lb). Its 8.5‑in cleaning path is narrower than Black+Decker’s 10.75 in and Bissell’s 8.85 in, but it still covers enough ground for most rooms. Unlike most peers, which rely on batteries, the HV322’s corded power eliminates runtime anxiety, though it does mean you’re tethered to an outlet, a trade‑off many users note.

Reviewers consistently praise the lightweight feel when you carry it upstairs and the strong pet‑hair pickup, calling the suction “equivalent to a full‑size upright.” Professionals highlight the TruePet motorized brush’s ability to lift embedded fur from carpet and upholstery. On the downside, users mention the cord can be cumbersome in larger spaces, and the 80 dB noise level is louder than the sub‑58 dB figures reported for some competitors. The vacuum ships with a crevice tool, pet multi‑tool and upholstery tool, plus LED headlights for spotting dust in dim corners, and it’s backed by a five‑year limited warranty.

Best for: Buyers willing to invest in a proven, high‑quality option

Avoid if: You're on a tight budget or only need basic functionality

TL;DR: The Jellypig X100 delivers 50 kPa suction with a 600 W motor, 70 minutes of cordless run time, and a lightweight 6.3 lb body, making it a solid cordless pick for pet‑hair cleanup.

What really sets the Jellypig X100 apart is its 600 W brushless motor that produces 50 KPa of suction while staying under 6.3 lb. The 22,400 mAh battery fuels up to 70 minutes of runtime, and the LED touch screen lets you monitor power and adjust suction on the fly. A self‑standing design means the unit can perch upright without a wall mount, and the V‑shaped anti‑winding brush helps keep pet hair from tangling.

Compared with the other ten stick vacuums in this roundup, the X100 sits in the middle of the weight range—lighter than the Mohomo (8.0 lb) and Shark (8.6 lb) but a touch heavier than the Eureka RapidClean Pro (5.3 lb) and Black+Decker Powerseries Extreme (5.0 lb). Its 70‑minute runtime outlasts the Eureka (40 min) and Black+Decker (55 min) models, matching the Mohomo’s battery life while exceeding the KARDV’s 60 minutes. At 600 W, its motor power tops the KARDV’s 500 W and far exceeds the Eureka’s 250 W, and the 50 KPa suction beats the KARDV’s 40 KPa, giving it a clear edge for pulling pet hair from carpets.

Professional reviewers have praised the X100’s “excellent” suction for pet hair and its light handling at 6.3 lb, while everyday users echo the sentiment, noting how easily the unit tackles fur on both carpet and hard floors. The main complaints revolve around a four‑hour recharge time and occasional confusion over motor‑power figures that appear inconsistently in different listings. The vacuum’s 8‑layer HEPA filtration and quiet operation (around 58 dB) round out a package that feels premium without the premium price tag.

Best for: Pet owners and households that want strong suction, long cordless runtime, and easy handling in a mid‑priced stick vacuum.

Avoid if: You need rapid successive cleaning cycles due to the four‑hour charge time, or you require ultra‑high suction beyond 50 KPa.

TL;DR: The Bissell PowerClean FurFinder offers a 200W motor, 40‑minute eco runtime and pet‑focused FurFinder LEDs, but its 0.4 L dirt cup and 13‑minute turbo limit longer deep‑clean sessions.

The standout spec is the 200W motor paired with a variable suction control that lets you switch between eco (40 minutes) and turbo (13 minutes) modes. At 7.1 lbs, the vacuum feels light enough for quick trips up stairs while still delivering the power needed for stubborn pet hair.

Compared with the other ten stick vacuums, the Bissell sits near the middle of the weight range—lighter than the Shark HV322 Rocket Pet Plus (8.6 lbs) but heavier than the Black+Decker Powerseries Extreme Pet Hair (5.0 lbs). Its 40‑minute eco battery life trails the Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal Plus (50 minutes) and the Jellypig Cordless (70 minutes), yet it still outlasts many entry‑level models. The 8.85 in cleaning path is narrower than the Shark Flex’s 10.4 in and Black+Decker’s 10.75 in, but a bit wider than the Shark HV322’s 8.5 in width, giving it a balanced reach for apartment‑size floors.

Users repeatedly praise the FurFinder LED headlights for exposing hidden fur on carpets and car interiors, a feature highlighted by professional reviewers as a genuine pet‑hair advantage. The HEPA Allergen System, which captures 99.97 % of particles down to 0.3 µm, also relieves allergy sufferers. However, the 0.4 L dirt tank fills quickly during larger clean‑ups, and the short turbo runtime forces frequent recharges if you need sustained high suction.

Best for: Pet owners in small to medium homes or apartments who need a cordless, high‑suction vacuum with LED assistance for quick fur pick‑ups.

Avoid if: You have a large house that demands long turbo runtime, or you prefer a larger dirt cup and a broader accessory set.

TL;DR: The Levoit LVAC-200 weighs 6.17 lb, offers a tangle‑resistant brush and 5‑stage filtration, but its 0.75 L dust bin and 12‑minute Turbo run may feel limiting for large‑area pet‑hair clean‑ups.

The LVAC-200’s most eye‑catching spec is its lightweight design at just 6.17 lb, making it easy to carry up stairs or around furniture. Its 43.3‑in height keeps the handle comfortably within reach, while the 7.7‑in width lets it slide under most beds. A one‑click empty dust bin and washable filters add convenience for busy pet owners.

Compared with the other ten stick vacuums, the Levoit sits in the middle of the weight range: it’s heavier than the 5.0‑lb Black+Decker and 5.3‑lb Eureka models, but lighter than the 8.0‑lb Mohomo and 8.6‑lb Shark units. Its height matches the Eureka’s 43.3 in but is a few inches shorter than the 45‑in tall Black+Decker and 45.5‑in tall Black+Decker, giving it a slightly more compact profile than those taller rivals.

Reviewers consistently praise the tangle‑resistant brush for keeping pet hair from wrapping around the roller, which helps maintain suction over time. The five‑stage filtration system captures 99.9 % of particles, earning high marks from allergy‑sensitive users. However, many note that the 0.75 L dust bin fills quickly during extensive cleaning, and the Turbo mode’s 12‑minute runtime can feel short when tackling heavily soiled carpets.

Additional technical highlights include an easy‑empty dust bin that empties with a single click, a lightweight construction that reduces arm fatigue, and washable filters that lower long‑term maintenance costs. The vacuum also features LED lights on the head for better visibility under furniture and a 180° flat‑lying capability that reaches tight spaces.

Best for: Pet owners who need a well‑reviewed, lightweight stick vacuum with strong hair‑capture performance and allergy‑friendly filtration.

Avoid if: You regularly clean large areas in Turbo mode or need a larger dust bin for extended sessions.

TL;DR: The Dyson V11 Origin delivers class‑leading 185 AW suction and up to 60 minutes of runtime, but its premium $469.99 price and small dust bin make it best for dedicated pet‑hair enthusiasts willing to invest.

What really sets the V11 Origin apart is its 185 AW of fade‑free suction, powered by a Hyperdymium motor that spins at 125,000 rpm. Combined with an LCD screen that reports real‑time performance, the vacuum tackles pet hair on carpets and hard floors without losing power. The included Motorbar cleaner head actively de‑tangles fur, a feature that professional reviewers highlight as superior for pet owners.

In the context of this 11‑product roundup, the V11 sits at the higher end of the price spectrum and offers more suction than the Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal Plus, Bissell PowerClean FurFinder, and Black+Decker Extreme Pet Hair models. Weighing 6.6 lb (2992 g), it weighs less than the Shark HV322 Rocket Pet Plus (8.6 lb) and the Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal Plus (7.4 lb), yet a bit more than the Black+Decker (5.0 lb) and the Jellypig Cordless Vacuum (6.3 lb). Its 60‑minute runtime exceeds the Black+Decker's 55‑minute runtime and the Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal Plus's 50‑minute runtime, giving it a runtime advantage over most peers.

Consumers repeatedly praise the V11’s strong suction and the Motorbar head’s ability to lift stubborn pet hair, noting that whole‑home clean‑ups feel faster. Reviews note the 0.2‑gallon (0.76 L) dust bin fills quickly during larger jobs, and a recharge period of roughly 4.5 hours can interrupt longer cleaning sessions. The 6.6‑lb weight stays manageable for most rooms, but it can cause fatigue if you clean back‑to‑back without a spare battery.

Best for: Buyers willing to invest in a proven, high‑quality option

Avoid if: You're shopping on a tight budget — it's priced at $469.99

TL;DR: The Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal Plus offers a 10.4‑in cleaning path, 50‑minute cordless run time and a blue LED Dirt‑Reveal light, but its premium $279.99 price may deter budget‑focused shoppers.

The standout feature is the 10.4‑in cleaning path, which lets you cover more floor in each pass while the 0.8‑quart dust cup holds up to 0.8 quart of pet hair before emptying. Its 50‑minute battery life and 181 W motor give you enough power for a full‑home clean without plugging in.

Compared with the other ten stick vacuums, this model sits toward the higher end of the price range and is slightly heavier than the 7.1‑lb Bissell PowerClean FurFinder, but lighter than the 8.0‑lb Mohomo. The 50‑minute runtime is longer than the Bissell’s 40‑minute Eco mode yet shorter than the 70‑minute runs of Jellypig and Mohomo. Its 10.4‑in cleaning width outpaces most peers, matching the Black+Decker’s 10.75‑in width and exceeding the narrower 8.5‑in path of the Shark HV322 Rocket Pet Plus.

User reviews consistently praise the lightweight feel, automatic FloorDetect™ technology that adjusts brushroll speed, and the Dirt‑Reveal LED that highlights hidden dust on dark surfaces. Pet owners especially like the self‑cleaning brushroll that prevents hair wrap. However, several reviewers note that the vacuum struggles to reach deep‑pile carpet fibers and that battery runtime can drop when the boost trigger is used heavily.

Technically, the unit runs on a 21.6 V lithium‑ion battery, draws 8.37 A, and includes a HEPA post‑motor filter that captures 99.97 % of particles down to 0.3 µm. The combination of hypervelocity suction and LED headlights makes it a solid choice for hard‑floor households with pets.

Best for: Pet owners who need strong hair pickup, households with mainly hard floors, and users who value automatic floor detection and LED dirt‑reveal technology.

Avoid if: You have deep‑pile carpets that require deep suction or you need a low‑cost entry‑level stick vacuum.

TL;DR: The KARDV V06 delivers 40 kPa suction with a 500 W motor and up to 60 minutes of runtime, all in a 5.0 lb, blue stick vacuum that’s geared toward pet‑hair cleanup on a budget.

The standout spec is its 40 kPa suction power, driven by a 500 W brushless motor, which professional reviewers call “shockingly powerful” for a budget stick vacuum. Combined with a smart LED display that shows mode and battery status, the V06 offers a clear view of performance while you clean. Its 60‑minute low‑mode runtime lets you tackle an entire apartment without stopping to recharge, and the V‑shaped anti‑tangle brush keeps pet hair from wrapping around the roller.

Compared with the other contenders, the KARDV runs longer than the Eureka RapidClean Pro’s 40‑minute runtime, yet it’s lighter than the Mohomo model’s 8.0 lb weight. It also weighs less than the Eureka NES100’s 2.8 lb unit, making it easy to carry up stairs, while still offering more suction than the NES100’s unspecified level. The KARDV’s motor power of 500 W exceeds the RapidClean Pro’s 250 W, positioning it near the top of the power spectrum in this group.

Users frequently praise the vacuum’s 40 kPa suction on both hard floors and carpets, noting that it pulls pet hair clean without frequent brush clogs. Reviewers highlight the LED‑illuminated roller head and anti‑tangle design as practical upgrades that improve visibility under furniture. However, several owners point out that the high‑power mode cuts runtime to roughly 20‑25 minutes, which can feel limiting for deep‑carpet sessions. A few reviews also mention occasional brush‑winding alerts and a dust‑bin seal that may loosen under heavy use.

Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking a reliable entry‑level option

Avoid if: You want the best value‑per‑dollar in its price range

TL;DR: The Eureka NES100 is a ultra‑light 2.8‑lb corded stick vacuum with a 9.6‑in cleaning path, 0.7 L dust cup and 3‑in‑1 convertible design, ideal for quick clean‑ups on hard floors and low‑pile carpet.

The standout feature is its 3‑in‑1 versatility: a handheld mode, a stick configuration and a removable motorized floor nozzle, all powered by a 240–248 W motor at 120 V. Weighing just 2.8 lbs and measuring 13.28 in tall, 44.0 in long and 13.78 in wide, it feels almost weightless in the hand, and the 9.6 in cleaning path reaches into tight spaces while the 0.7 L bagless dust cup empties with a single press.

At $49.99 it lands at the budget end of the eleven‑product lineup. Compared with the KARDV cordless (5.0 lb) and the other cordless options that range from 5.3 lb to 8.0 lb, the NES100 weighs significantly less, though its 44.0‑in length is longer than the typical sub‑12‑in profiles of those rivals. Its cord wraps around rear hooks for tidy storage, a feature many of the cordless models lack.

Professional reviewers highlight the vacuum’s lightweight build and continuous corded suction as major wins for apartment dwellers and pet owners who need instant power without charging pauses. Everyday users echo this, praising how easy it's to lift onto stairs, into a car trunk, or store vertically thanks to its self‑standing base. The washable foam filter and included crevice tool also score points for low‑maintenance cleaning. On the flip side, several owners note that the 240–248 W motor can feel under‑powered on thicker carpets, and the plastic housing contributes to a “budget‑grade” perception. A few reviews even mention inconsistent weight listings, which can be confusing during purchase.

Best for: Shoppers on a tight budget who want the most for their money

Avoid if: You have a large home with thick carpets or need deep‑carpet cleaning power

TL;DR: The Black+Decker Powerseries Extreme Pet Hair offers a 10.75‑in cleaning path, 55‑minute cordless runtime and a pet‑focused anti‑tangle brush for $169.99, but its five‑hour charge and modest 3.9‑star rating may give pause.

This stick vacuum’s standout spec is the 10.75 in cleaning path, which lets you cover more floor with each pass. Combined with a 750 ml dustbin and three‑speed control, it tackles pet hair on carpets, rugs and hard floors without frequent emptying.

Compared with the other ten models, the Black+Decker is lighter than the Levoit LVAC‑200 (6.17 lb) and the Shark HV322 Rocket Pet Plus (8.6 lb), while its path is wider than Shark’s 8.5 in. Its 55‑minute runtime sits between the Eureka RapidClean Pro’s 40 minutes and the Jellypig’s 70 minutes, and it charges in 300 minutes—longer than the Mohomo’s four‑hour cycle but similar to many mid‑range cordless sticks.

Professional reviewers note the rubber‑bristle anti‑tangle brush bar, which manufacturers claim captures pet hair up to 75 % better on carpets. Users appreciate the built‑in LED lights that illuminate debris under furniture, but some comment that the unit feels heavier than expected for a cordless stick, and the five‑hour charge can be inconvenient for quick turnarounds.

Additional technical details include a 2000 mAh (40 Wh) 20V MAX lithium‑ion battery, three speed settings, a low‑profile pet tool, and a wall‑mountable 3‑in‑1 charger. It's bagless, features a washable filter and comes with an accessory holder, flip‑out crevice brush and handheld conversion for versatile cleaning.

Best for: Pet owners who want cordless flexibility and a wide cleaning path for multi‑surface pickup.

Avoid if: You prioritize ultra‑lightweight design or ultra‑fast charging cycles.

TL;DR: The Eureka RapidClean Pro offers 40 minutes of cordless run time, a lightweight 5.3‑lb design, and a 5‑stage filter, but its modest 0.6 L bin and 78 dB noise may limit longer deep‑clean sessions.

The standout spec is its 40‑minute battery runtime, which a 250 W brushless motor powers, while the 5‑stage filtration system captures fine dust and allergens. Weighing just 5.3 lb and standing 43.3 in tall, it stays easy to carry up stairs or into a car, and the 0.6 L dust cup empties with a single push of the easy‑rest storage.

Compared with the other ten models, the RapidClean Pro is a touch heavier than the KARDV (5.0 lb) but lighter than the Mohomo (8.0 lb) and Levoit (6.17 lb). Its 40‑minute runtime is shorter than KARDV’s 60 minutes and far below the 70‑minute runs of Mohomo and Jellypig, though it matches the Black+Decker’s 55‑minute claim. Height‑wise it rivals the Levoit at 43.3 in, while the KARDV is markedly shorter at 16 in. In weight terms it sits between the ultra‑light Eureka NES100 (2.8 lb) and the bulkier Black+Decker (5.0 lb), offering a middle ground for portable power.

User sentiment repeatedly praises the vacuum’s light feel and the convenience of a 40‑minute cordless span for quick apartment clean‑ups or car interiors. Professional reviewers note the low weight and 25.2 V battery as strong portability factors, yet they also point out the lack of a dedicated brush‑on/off switch, which can limit control on delicate fabrics. Reviewers describe the 78 dB noise level as moderate, noticeable on quiet evenings.

Beyond runtime and weight, the model includes a TurboSpin brush for pet hair, 180° swivel steering for tight corners, and built‑in LED headlights that illuminate under‑furniture debris. It converts to handheld mode, comes with a crevice tool, a 2‑in‑1 dusting brush, and a wall‑mount for tidy storage.

Best for: Entry-level buyers or those on a tight budget

Avoid if: You need advanced features or professional‑grade performance
