Henry definitely for me. Last one was about 20yrs old when he finally pegged it. Have used a Dyson upright and not impressed.

We have two dogs and two semi long haired cats and we use a Dyson DC14 animal and it is very, very good.

we had a dyson - it was pants, sorry but it was. we have a henry now and he's lovely. he gets excercised twice a day every day and is very good at his job!!!!!!

the dyson was not good at getting into corners and then you have to take it apart every 2 mins. don't have time for that - got dogs to walk!!

I had this dilema a couple of months ago too. I used to use an upright, then went on to a Henry, then recently decided I needed an upright again.

I looked around, and was amazed at the selection not to mention the price tag!!!

I chose one in Currys then to be told they don't take cheques!!!!!!!!!!
Ended up in Tesco and bought a Morphy Richards upright for under £70........ really pleased with it too. It's bagless and has an incredible suction on it, so for the money I would say that was a super buy!!

p.s i still have the Henry and it's years old but it stops me having to lug it upstairs.

OMG! No wonder mine lasted so long

irish setters have an awful lot of fur - most of which gos in to henry when hes hungry!!

i love my dogs but the dog hair drives my nuts, its no joke!

So do Lapphunds

yes i know, dog fur hey!!

I think I must be the only Dyson hater in the world.....mine lasted about 4 months before having to go back for the 1st time!

We had a Miele before the Dyson and so went back to the Cat and Dog one after ceremoniously dumping the Dyson in a skip

The only vac for me is a MIELE with a turbo brush. I currently have the 600 which has a 1600 motor, but will replace it with a 2200 shortly. They can be a bit pricey but are excellent and I wouldn't have anything else.

The bags are quite pricey too, about £8 for 5
