Miele S516 Cat & Dog Canister Vacuum Cleaneradmin2010-09-01 17:15:31Miele S516 Cat & Dog canister vacuum cleaners are specifically designed for pets. They use activated charcoal filters to remove the smell, and strong suction and tools to remove the pet hair from stairs & unholstery, etc.
Having done my homework pretty thoroughly and found that the Miele S516 is the best dog and cat hair vacuum for mostly hard-surface floors, I discover that it has been discontinued! Two different local Miele dealers said I wanted a canister –NOT an upright — and showed me that this model had shorter brush hairs that would not constantly clog with pet hair.
Let’s pressure Miele to bring back a decent pet hair CANISTER vacuum!
