I had the Philips one but after about a year it’s suction changed to the point where it’s hard for it to pick up cat litter now…

It must be able to deal with a lot of cat hair and litter… and preferably be under 500 euros.

Of course I think a corded one is better for my purposes, and I have mostly hard floors with a few small rugs.

    I have pets and bought a new vacuum just a couple years ago. I went with Sebo airbelt k3 after hearing Miele had gone down in quality and I love it. This vacuum fixes every single annoyance I’ve ever had with a vaccum:

    • the canister rolls easily on carpet
    • the cord retracts perfectly every time and rachets out as you pull the canister
    • it’s easy to take apart to clear clogs and even has a little spring flap behind the brushroller to quickly clear the most common place a clog will get stuck
    • the roller is trivial to remove and clean
    • the bags are easy to change and hold a lot of dust and pet hair before you need to change them

    The K3 is a little out of your price range but the K2 and E2 are a bit cheaper. I will say that if you’ve got a lot of thick carpet, it’s worth investing in a vaccuum with a powered brushroller like the K3.
