Does it pick up Long hair? Does anyone know how this Eureka functions when presented with long hair to vaccum up?

So far I have not had any problems with it, and I had the same problem with my Oreck. My hair is about 2 inches past the shoulders, and I shed like a dog.

We have two Golden Labs, who are definitely "hairballs". You will have to empty the bin two or three times before the whole house is cleaned. We run the Neato daily between regular vacuuming. The answer to your question is YES the Neato does pick up pet hair.

While we have no real experience with long hairs, all I can say is that the Neato does extremely well picking up dirt from carpets and hardwood floors. In fact much better than the Roomba.

I own this vacuum,I also have a huge husky-lab that sheds unlike anything I have ever had in my house,this vacuum is excellent for picking up hair,it sucks better than any vacuum I have ever owned.I do my floors and furniture and car,it's not good for carpet.

It can't do much when its "bigger" objects. It's pretty much just a moving box with a wet tower tucked under its belly. Its a floor mop after all. If it is your first robotic cleaning device that you are looking for, I highly recommend buying a Roomba first, its a vacuum cleaner, can get 95% of the dirt sucked up. Another note: My mint just broke down after 3 months. Currently in the process of sending it back for repair/replacement. Let me tell you the process isn't super smooth so far.

Yes, it vacuums the carpet, and it will pull the yarn right out of an old carpet it is so strong, a powerful vacuum; also, has height adjustment to raise the roller for a bare-floor, the roller doesn't stop rolling when switched to bare-floor as in some more expensive models. In all the years, it is by far the best vacuum I have owned for the money.

It works well in area rugs,but once the brush becomes filled with hair, the vacuume will not suck up.

Oh my gosh, yes ! This gets EVERYTHING up off any surface ...great to do just before vacuuming. Unless the hair is from hairballs and has been wet..If it's embedded hair that had moisture...not sure...probably would with vigorous movement. If it's just dry hair, it will pick it up. It's an amazing product.

You are correct. It functions only as a "push" broom. But it seems to corral the hair better than a conventional broom.

yes it will cut hair but not vacuum it up. No point to get this unless you will connect. On the other hand it works fantastic. love it

Yes it picks up hair and fine dust,I tried cheaper versions first and wishI saved my money and bought this One first. If you need it for fine dust hair( we have dark hardwood floors) it reallyDoes a great job! And the cordless is great to go where you want however the head is small so it doesn't cover a large area. It may take longer to vacuum the same area

Has a lot of suction. With brush off it picks up all hair and everything else.

does an excelllant job pushing hair into pile-YOU have to pick it up! Seriously, I love this little thing, picks up just like a DYson-but again, you have to pick the pile up!

My machine picks up hair easily, but it can clog the "throat" of the head where the vacuumed material goes up into the cannister. It's easy to take the head off and run a bent coathanger through the hole to push out the blockage. YMMV, because I have long hair and dogs with heavy coats. You might not get a blockage at all.

No problem with long human hair, however make sure you clean the brushes on a regular basis. Loving my Roomba.

For the most part it does good. It does not pick up fine particles but everything else it seems to get. Its not the smartest robot vacuum. Place yourstation away from electronics. Be aware of three charging pins in back of vacuum. They have an issue of sticking and I had to return my first one twice till I got a new replacement.

I have had this cleaner for about a week. I have vacuumed and vacuumed prior to use and yes, I still get tons of pulled up hair into the machine. I have taken the covers off the base machine by removing the 5 screws and had to rinse and use a shop-vac to pull out any extra hair, put back together and then start using again. However, even with this hassle, the machine, both the upright and the detachable unit, have cleaned VERY well. I also have let the base unit dry well underneath and then shop vacuumed out any remaining hair. That helped with better functioning. I guess it may be the price we animal lovers pay for all the tiny hairs that a vacuum can't pull up but the shampooer does! Over all, the units have cleaned better than other brands we have had previously. Hope any of this response helps you!
