    I have an air ram, great, use on carpets, Riga and wood floor. You can also get a hand held addition for stairs etc. Costly but works a treat.

    Hated my dyson- the most I have ever paid for a vac and after a while the suction really dropped off despite cleaning filters.

    Thanks all, that gives me somewhere to start :).
    I'll do a bit of research based on the suggestions and see what's around for Black Friday deals.

  • Miele cat & dog keeps mine spotless.
  • My Dyson V6 is just right for my mix of wooden floors downstairs and small areas of carpet upstairs. My daughter had one first and I thought it was a huge extravagence until I used it, and was converted! Difficult to empty though and horrifying to see how much dust and fluff it picks up in just a few minutes of use. I still have an upright hoover and you would need this if you had a big expanse of carpet.

    I have the Gtech airram and love it, but you say you have long hair, I think that could end up getting wound round the rollers and need pulling out, so I'd avoid it in your circumstances.
