Ta. I'm glad you said that because I've got to that consumerist stage where I just want to buy one after having read so many rave reviews.
The hair getting wrapped up thing is what I read on Mumsnet but our house isn't even that hairy to be honest.
Would it be madness to go for the corded version? 22 minutes battery doesn't seem very long and a second battery makes it a bit pricey...
Fox-
didn't even know they made a pluggy inny version. depends how big your gaff is i spose. i tend to do the ground floor one day, the upper two floors the next. i fucking hate vaccing and spreading out the joy makes it seem a far less onerous task.
wires tho... they're never long enough and they always end up a tangled mess. most of these battery charged doohickeys have the battery integrated into the device, so when the battery goes, and they all do, you have either fork out for a replacement or buy a new unit. not so with Le Shork, as the battery slips out and you can charge the fucker to your hearts content.

It's a ruddy marvel I shit thee nay. I live in a house with a black cat and someone with long black hair that gets everywhere. The only issue we've had is maybe with the hairs getting wrapped up in the roly brushy wotnot at the front of the thing. You can always swap out the accessories, that said, it's no major ballache to de-hair the fucker when it gets a bit testy.
The vac, not the cat or her indoors.
