While it’s true that a dustpan is much more effective on hard floors, they can still be used on carpet if you have no other options.

As you may know, Shark also has a system to prevent hair from getting caught around the brush bars.They call this “anti-hair wrap”, and it’s available on most of Shark’s newer vacuum cleaners..

The system is similar to Dyson’s, although it works in a slightly different way.There’s still a comb, but this removes hair from the brush bar rather than migrating it towards the entrance of the floorhead.. Shark is quite tight-lipped about how their comb actually removes hair.It seems that the comb separates both long and short hair, before removing it from the brush bar so it can enter the bin..

In our experience, the Shark system does a decent job, but it doesn’t prevent all hair from getting caught around the brush.We think Dyson’s system is a bit more effective, although both options are great for reducing how often you need to cut away hair from the brush.. Summary.

During our testing, we’ve found that Dyson’s detangling technology is more than just a gimmick..

It really does prevent hair from getting caught around the brush bar.Vacuum before cleaning to remove surface dirt and keep it looking fresh..

If your vacuum has hard floor settings, then make sure to use these when cleaning vinyl.Hard floor modes typically switch off the brush bar and adjust the floorhead height, which increases performance and reduces the risk of damage..

You can sweep if you prefer, but vacuuming does a more thorough job of picking up fine dust..Step 2: Choose a Cleaning Solution.
