Product Components and Specifications
AIRROBO PG100 Pet Grooming Vacuum has the following:
- PG100 pet vacuum
- Flexible hose
- Electric clipper with 3 guard combs
- Grooming Brush
- Deshedding tool
- Cleaning brush
- Aperture tool
- Storage bag for attachments

- User Manual
The PG100 pet vacuum has up to 12,000 Pa of suction power with three different levels and is relatively quiet at just 50 dB. The device can vacuum up 99.9% of loose pet hair, pet dander, mites, and allergens. The flexible hose is about 5 feet long (1.5 meters) so you can keep the vacuum away from the pet you’re grooming to minimize noise. The hose is magnetic at the ends so you can wrap it around the base of the vacuum motor for storage. The vacuum also has a leather handle on top for easy portability and the attachments all fit in the storage bag. The large 2.0 liter dustbin in the vacuum allows you to groom a pet without constantly emptying it. The electric clipper comes with 3 reversible guard combs that each come in two lengths: 3mm and 6mm, 9mm and 12mm, 18mm and 24mm. Therefore you can use them with different lengths of fur. The hose carries power to the clipper so you don’t have to plug it in separately. Both the grooming brush and the deshedding tool have moving parts to remove the stuck fur so that it can be vacuumed up.
How to Use the AIRROBO PG100 Pet Grooming Vacuum
The AIRROBO PG100 Pet Grooming Vacuum is easy to use. Plug the vacuum into an outlet and connect the hose to the vacuum motor. Then choose which attachment you want to use and connect it to the other end of the hose. Press the power button on the back of the vacuum motor. Then press the Min or Max buttons to increase or decrease the suction power respectively. When using an electric clipper, select the desired guard comb for the length you want to cut the fur. The clipper has a power button on the bottom for turning the clipper on and off separately from the vacuum.
When using the grooming brush, use it to brush with the fur and not against it as you would normally brush your pet. As the tines of the brush begin to collect lint, press the release button and retract the tines to release the lint so that the vacuum can suck up the lint. The deshedding tool also has a release button to push the feather out of the tines.
To empty the dustbin, turn off the vacuum and simply slide the dustbin out of the vacuum motor and release the latch to open the screen to dispose of the lint. The smooth surface of the dustbin allows the fur to slide out. Once the dustbin is removed, the HEPA filter and sponge filter are easily accessible. The sponge filter helps prevent large particles from reaching the HEPA filter, thereby extending its life. The sponge filter is also water washable, and it is suggested to rinse it regularly.
Why You Should Get the AIRROBO PG100 Pet Grooming Vacuum
I had the opportunity to test the AIRROBO PG100 Pet Grooming Vacuum for a few months. We have two dogs with medium length straight fur and two with curly hair. This product is not designed for the latter. It is designed for animals with medium to long straight fur. For this purpose, it works well. Although our dogs love to be brushed, one of the two with straight fur doesn’t listen to the sound of regular clippers and we have to distract him during grooming. The first time the PG100 was used on him, we started with just the brush and no vacuum to get him used to it. Next we turn on the vacuum and move it away from the length of the hose so that the motor noise is not next to him. That was fine because he was used to the noise, which wasn’t too loud. Finally, we tried the clippers. The clippers themselves are not very loud and the sound absorption tends to drown out the sound of the clipper. My daughter and I were able to trim her fur without resorting to bribes and distractions.
I had the opportunity to review several AIRROBO products and continue to use them in our home. My husband even ordered some for our grown children to use in their homes. Therefore, I had some high expectations when I received the PG100, but some reservations at the same time as we have not always liked some of the other companies’ pet grooming products we have purchased in the past. . However, when I unboxed the product, I found the build quality to be good. Once we started using it, I really liked how the grooming brush and deshed tool worked, especially the ability to remove the fur with a press release and the fur all went into the dustbin without me having to pull it out from the tines. and throw it away. However, I was even more impressed when we started using scissors. The plug fits easily into the hose and the clear plastic covers the top where the suction pulls the fluff. I could actually see the fur being pulled into the attachment, right above the scissor blades. While the detachable combs let you choose the length of the trim, the suction pulls the fur away from the pet, aligns it with the clippers, and then once cut, puts it in the bin. While my husband usually grooms for our dogs, my daughter and I find it pretty easy. So if we can do it, almost anyone can. My son and daughter in law who own a black lab would like to get one to help reduce the fur shed around their apartment.
If you have dogs or cats with medium to long hair shedding, and they are good at grooming them, then I recommend the AIRROBO PG100 Pet Grooming Vacuum. Even if you just want to use it for brushing and deshedding, the ability to pick up fur while brushing is a great feature and when done regularly, will reduce the amount of fur that falls around your home. And once your pet gets used to the PG100, you can also use the clippers for trimming. See the AIRROBO page for more information and to purchase. The current price of $109.99 is great, and you get free shipping. However, if you take advantage of the AIRROBO Amazon store sale and coupon, your total price is only $79.99. The PG100 also makes a great gift for the pet owners in your life.
