I have a cat and every day or so I feel like sweeping up a second cat with loose hair. The investment associated with the original purchase sometimes left its mark. So I was very happy to get the one that is just a brush. It was described as fitting the Dyson v7, the connector did not fit directly onto the head or onto the stick. I would be very disappointed, but I also ordered a crevice tool. Its connector is suitable for wooden floor tools, so the problem is solved. The tool works more like a broom BUT the suction prevents the wool from flying further. Acting more like a broom, he pushes small particles into one place for easy collection. When I'm done, I use another nozzle to remove any hair left on the nozzle. This means that the hair in the container does not yet fly into the wastebasket. Much more effective than a broom and won't scratch the floor.
