I've seen infomercials for the shark... so would think you can get it here, but wouldn't know where...

I recently bought a Vax, I LOVE it =) (a little too much). but we don't have carpet, only hard floors, and no inside pets. But it keeps up with all the dust, and my hair (which sheds bucketloads). and I vacuum EVERYTHING =P cost me less than $300. I basically walked into a Godfreys store and said I need one that does this, this and this and not this, and he showed me a couple and I picked it out.

Dyson has one specifically made for pet hair, but they are more than 300 I think.
