Any experience with long hair getting tangled/stuck in vacuum?

No. The things that clog the vacuum filter are powdery substances. Be prepared to clean the filter after every use.

no.. There are no moving brushes in the vacuum. The only time hair became a problem is when I used a vacuum with moving brushes. You must clean out all vacuums regularly.

Have not experinced any problems. My hair is thick and full, so the clips stay right on.

I have had no problems with any length of animal hair or human hair. Only problem is with long strings from some dog toys or children's toys.

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!

I have never had that problem. I've only had to clear long hair off of the rollers.

I had the same problem initially but found it was just tangled. Once untangled it was fine.

No I never had any problems with that. I did have problems last year (bought this several years ago) with wires breaking in the head. Best vacuum I ever had. Beat my friend's Dyson! Picked up more dirt

I use to have long hair and I never had a problem with the hair. When you vaccumn and clean the filter all the hair is in one place.

what do you mean by hair? Like does my hair get stuck onto the seat cover? If so, then the answer is no. I have long hair and never have a problem with hair being stuck on the car seat cover. I do notice however that after @ 6 mos of having these covers, the threading is starting to become worn in high pressure areas, but hey, it was only $50 right? Hope this helps.

didnt for me.. I tease my hair at the roots it makes it hold on better.. guess it just depends on hair type or how you place it clips just arent for some people and if thats the only problem just take them out and use hair glue it does the trick (:

I have waist-length hair and have had this vacuum for 2 years with no problems like I had with our Hoover. I am so thankful! I had to unwind the hair at least once a month with the Hoover but the Eureka does great with the hair from: 1. my 5-year old daughter with waist-length hair 2. my hair 3. my australian shepherd's fluffy dog hair and 4. the hair from my two cats!

I have really long and fine hair. It is breaking all of the time, and getting everywhere. This vacuum has no trouble picking up what I should be vacuuming up more often. I recommend this vacuum for even the longest hair cat.

No, and you wouldn't want it to! My hair is to my shoulders and layered. I roll my hair up on the barrel and turn the heat to high, then to cool and the style is set. I've used the ones that spin and I've never been able to use them without getting my hair all tangled up.

Yes catching on the pool ladder is definitely a problem with most automatic vacuums and above ground pools. There are days I'm out there every 20 minutes to move it away from the ladder and then there are weeks I don't have any problems. Removing the ladder while running it is probably the only way to guarantee it won't get tangled up but that is not always feasible. My ladder can easily lift out so if I need to I can do that.

I have always had 3 gals with long hair in my house hold...Learned real fast about cleaning vaccum roller brushes...Acquire a pair of very small fisscar sissors or the equilivent with a very sharp point...Slide the point along the roller brushes and cut the hair into small pieces and then use a long stiff brissel hair brush to remove the hair pieces...I have tried many other methods and this works best for me...We love the vaccum

Yes. But if you only take about 1" peice of your hair at a time and make sure your hair is free of knots then your hair shouldn't get tangled.
