Our Verdict

Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal [Animal Pro, Multi Floor]

BISSELL Zing Bagless Canister

The Dyson Cinetic Big Ball Animal is better for pet owners than the BISSELL Zing Bagless Canister. The Dyson has an allergen-trapping HEPA filter, is easier to maintain, incurs practically no recurring costs, has a longer power cord, and comes with a much wider assortment of tools and brushes. However, the budget-friendly BISSELL weighs almost half as much, feels slightly better built, and clears coarse debris on high-pile carpets far more effectively.
