Pet hair can be a major problem for pet owners. It can get all over your home, making it difficult to keep clean. It can also be a nuisance for people with allergies.
A recent survey among 2,000 U.S. pet owners revealed just how much they love their pets. On average, respondents take over 400 pictures of their furry friends every year with a third of them having more photos of their pets on their phones than of their kids or partner.
While the photos capture the love, they don’t capture the shedding in real life. Nearly 60% of the pet owners agree that shedding pet hair is a problem (59%) and they are spending more time and energy cleaning up pet hair than they want to – averaging about four hours a week (57%).
To help alleviate the problem of pet hair at home, Maytag designed the Maytag Pet Pro System – a new laundry pair designed to visibly remove pet hair.
The Maytag Pet Pro System works as a complete laundry solution to help pet parents tackle the burden of pet hair. In the washer, the Pet Pro option unleashes additional water and a deep rinse to activate the Pet Pro Filter, the industry’s first pet hair filter in the washer, removing 5X more pet hair1 from clothes. In the dryer, the Pet Pro option lifts and traps loads of pet hair with an XL lint trap.
When it comes to pet hair, Maytag found that 53% of pet parents’ current laundry routine requires multiple steps with nearly 50% even going to a laundromat to avoid using their machines at home. The new Maytag Pet Pro System eliminates the need for those extra steps to help save time and reduce stress.
“We recognize the majority of pet owners struggle with pet hair,” said Lauren Bigger, Maytag Senior Brand Manager. “As a pet parent, I’m personally thrilled to see a laundry solution to help manage the daily challenge of pet hair. And professionally, we’re incredibly excited to deliver the first laundry pair that is engineered for homes with pets so consumers can conquer pet hair like a pro.”
Jason Horst, Director of Marketing at Famous Tate Appliance, added, “With over 70% of US households owning a pet, having a washer & dryer designed to help with pet hair makes so much sense! The Maytag brand has always been know for dependability and innovation, so the Pet Pro system is a welcome addition to our showrooms here in the Tampa Bay Area.”
