According to the majority of reviewers, the BISSELL CleanView Max Tangle-Free Vacuum performs well at picking up pet hair. Two-thirds of users report that it effectively removes pet hair from carpets and upholstery.

Most customers find the BISSELL CleanView Max Tangle-Free Vacuum easy to maneuver, thanks to its swivel steering and lightweight design. Reviewers note that it navigates well around furniture and in tight spaces.

The BISSELL CleanView Max Tangle-Free Vacuum features a tangle-free brush roll, which helps prevent hair and debris from getting tangled. This helps maintain consistent suction power and reduces the need for manual cleaning of the brush roll.

For pet hair, look for strong suction (roughly 20,000 Pa or more on a robot vacuum, 150 AW or more on a cordless), a tangle-resistant brush roll, a dedicated pet tool, and HEPA filtration, which by definition captures 99.97% of particles at 0.3 microns. Dyson, Shark and Bissell all make well-reviewed pet models. Use the Pet Hair Specialist filter on our comparison table to see which ones are in stock and what they cost right now.

Most manufacturers suggest replacing filters every 3 to 6 months, depending on how often you vacuum and whether you have pets. HEPA filters usually last 12 to 18 months if you clean them regularly. Washable foam filters on bagless models should be rinsed every 1 to 2 weeks and dried fully before going back in. Replacements typically run $15 to $50. A clogged filter chokes airflow, so suction drops noticeably well before the filter looks dirty.
