Dyson all the way. In our first 2 years of marriage we burned through 6 vaccuums before finally getting a Dyson. We would have saved so much had we bought the Dyson in the first place. 3 years and still works as well as the day we bought it. My parents have had the Dyson Amimal for probably 7-8 years and they love it. They're dog people and it's great with pet hair.

Shark Navigator!!! DH and I LOVE this thing. We almost broke down and got a dyson, but had a few ppl that we know who have the navigator that raved about it. It is about $150, depending on where you buy it. We have been very happy with it so far, the suction power is amazing. I also like that it is lighter than our old vacuums (bissell and hoover) and that it is a LOT quieter than any other vacuum we have ever used. My kids (two of them) were deathly scared of our other vacuums, with this one, the noise is not as loud, so they are fine with it. DH was a total skeptic, but loves it.

For a very affordable option, I love, love, love my Bissel Cleanview Helix; only $90 at Target. Consumer Reports recommends it and rates it "excellent" for pet hair. I have 2 cats and carpeting, and it's a dream. I hate spending hundreds on vacuums that ultimately break, so this one is fabuolous. HEPA filter and everything.

another fan of Shark Navigator! Totally worth it, and it's reasonably priced. I love how it's quiet yet effectively cleans our carpets, and it doesn't scare the kids.
