Hoover MaxLife Pro Pet Swivel Vacuum Cleaner, Bagless Upright Vac | HEPA Media Filtration, WindTunnel Technology, Corded Vacuum Cleaners for Home Use, For Carpet and Hard Floors
Best for
This vacuum suits pet-rich homes with a mix of carpet and hard floors that need deep cleaning and a generous range, but skip it if a featherweight push or rugged durability is a top priority.
What buyers say
Most owners agree this vacuum delivers powerful suction that picks up pet hair other machines leave behind, and the long cord and attachments make whole-room cleaning less of a chore. The trade-off is a heavier push and a risk of cracked handles or hose tears after heavy use, so it isn't built for light handling or infrequent maintenance.
Loved by buyers
- •Strong suction that rivals more expensive vacuums, pulling embedded hair out of carpets and brightening rugs in one pass
- •The rubber pet tool grabs hair from stairs and upholstery without tangling, a feature pet owners consistently celebrate
- •A long power cord plus swivel steering and LED headlights let you clean multiple rooms and spot hidden dirt without constantly replugging
Buyer concerns
- •Cracks tend to form in the plastic handle and wand, eventually making the wand pop loose and disrupting cleaning
- •The hose can tear at the bends after a year of heavy daily use, and finding a replacement part is difficult
- •It feels heavy to push on some carpets, demanding more effort than lighter uprights

Can the pet attachment clean upholstery?+
The rubber pet tool lifts hair from couches and chairs in one pass, and the suction control prevents it from grabbing fabric.
