Details

Pet hair makes any vacuum cleaner’s job much harder than normal. Pets tend to get everywhere and leave their fluff all over the house, building up in clumps, floating onto higher surfaces and sticking to fabrics like curtains and furniture to stress out the vacuum’s head and filters. Then there’s the mud, their food chewed all over the place and the inevitable accidents from excited puppy tails or catfights. 

Cleaning with an Air Stretch Pet Max is easier thanks to the massive 17m hose that can get into every corner, up and down the stairs, and to the top of curtains or shelves to really attack dust and pet hair that can float almost anywhere in a warm home. 

With all that fluff, there’s a full-size bin capacity for up to 1.5 litres of dust, so you can clean for longer and a turbo pet tool that helps remove stubborn pet hair with ease. The HEPA filter is key here, helping those with allergy issues by trapping small particles and pet dander, making it excellent for allergy sufferers. 

Even with the long hose, this VAX model is pretty light at only 5kg, making it easy enough to cart around the home in pursuit of all that pet hair. And the 13 metre power cord means you won’t be unplugging it to move between rooms. 

Summary
