Furme Vs. Oneisall: The Anxious Dog Test (Noise, Suction & Clipper Showdown)

As a pet owner, my life was once ruled by tumbleweeds of fur. My couch, my clothes, and my floors were in a constant state of surrender. I was tired of the mess, the groomer bills, and the stress it caused my dog.

I decided to find a real solution and went straight to the two biggest names in the at-home pet grooming vacuum game: Furme and Oneisall. I’ve now spent countless hours with both, and in this article, I’m laying out my complete, hands-on analysis to help you decide which one truly solves the pet hair problem.

The Fur-pocalypse: Why I Needed A Change?

FurMe Professional Pet Grooming Vacuum Kit

Before I get into the technical breakdown, let me paint a picture for you.

I have a Golden Retriever, which is basically a 70-pound love machine that manufactures fur for a living.

My old routine was a frantic, multi-step disaster.

First, I’d try to brush him. Fur would go flying, creating a cloud that would settle on every surface I just dusted.

I’d be covered in it, sneezing, with my black shirt looking like a yeti costume.

Second, I’d attempt to use my old, traditional clippers for a trim. He hated the sound. The loud BZZZZT would send him scrambling, and the hot blades would irritate his skin. The entire process was stressful for him and infuriating for me.

Third, the cleanup. I’d have to get the full-sized household vacuum to clean up the mess from the brushing and clipping, which was also loud and just added another layer of stress to the ordeal.

I looked at professional grooming, but the cost—over $100 per session—was just not sustainable. More importantly, my dog would come back from the groomer stressed out and panting. I knew there had to be a better way.

That’s when I discovered the concept of a grooming vacuum, a machine that not only brushes and clips but sucks the hair away at the same time. The two brands that came up everywhere were Furme and Oneisall. I decided to test them head-to-head.

First Impressions: Unboxing The Contenders

When the boxes arrived, the difference in philosophy was immediately clear.

  • Unboxing the Furme

Opening the Furme (I tested the Pro Plus model) felt like unboxing a high-end kitchen appliance. Everything was packed securely, and the unit itself felt solid. The plastic was thick, the hose was robust, and the main vacuum unit had a satisfying weight to it. It looked sleek and modern.

The attachments—a de-shedding brush, grooming brush, clippers, and nozzle—felt durable and well-made. The clipper blades, in particular, looked sharp and professional. My immediate impression was: “This is a premium, specialized tool.”

  • Unboxing the Oneisall

Opening the Oneisall (I got my hands on the Cozy C1 8-in-1 kit) was a different kind of “wow.”

It felt a bit lighter, a little more utilitarian in its build, but my eyes went wide at the sheer number of attachments.

It was a complete grooming salon in a box.

It had the standard brushes and clippers, but it also had a nail grinder, a paw trimmer, and—what I thought was a gimmick at first—a pet dryer.

My first impression was: “This is the Swiss Army Knife of pet grooming. The value here is undeniable.”

The stage was set. One looked like the specialist, the other looked like the ultimate all-rounder. But how would they perform?

A Feature-by-Feature Analysis of Furme And Oneisall

I put both machines through a series of tests on my heavy-shedding, somewhat-anxious dog. Here is exactly what I found.

  • The Noise Test: Does “Whisper-Quiet” Actually Mean Quiet?

This, for me, was the most important test. If it scared my dog, it was useless.

The Furme went first. The brand advertises “whisper-quiet” operation, and I was skeptical.

I turned it on its lowest setting. It was… incredible. It was a low, gentle hum, quieter than my refrigerator.

My dog, who normally bolts at the sound of a vacuum, just lifted his head, looked at it, and then laid his head back down.

This was a game-changer.

Even at its highest suction setting, the sound was muffled and low-pitched, causing zero panic.

Then came the Oneisall.

I turned it on. It was noticeably louder than the Furme.

It was not, by any means, as loud as my household vacuum. It was more of a strong fan sound, what I would call “low-noise” rather than “whisper-quiet.”

My dog was more alert. He sat up and watched it, a little unsure. He wasn’t terrified, but he wasn’t as relaxed as he was with the Furme.

Winner: Furme, by a long shot. If your pet is a high-anxiety, noise-sensitive creature, the Furme is in a class of its own. The Oneisall is quiet for a vacuum, but the Furme is quiet for a library.

  • The Suction Battle: Does It Actually Capture the Fur?

The whole point of these machines is to eliminate the fur-nado. Both brands claim to capture 99% of shed hair.

I started with the de-shedding tool on both. With the Furme, I was pulling out clumps of undercoat, and all of it was getting sucked straight down the hose. There were no stragglers, no floating hairs. The 10,500Pa of suction on the Pro Plus model was more than enough.

My only complaint?

The 2-liter canister on my model filled up fast. With a Golden Retriever in shedding season, I had to empty it two or three times per session. The Furme Ultra model, with its 4.5L tank and even stronger 14,000Pa suction, is clearly aimed at owners of large, heavy-shedding breeds.1

The Oneisall was up next. Its 12,000Pa of suction felt right on par with the Furme. I was just as impressed. I’d brush, and the fur would vanish into the hose. No mess, no cleanup. It performed its core job perfectly.

The 2.5L canister on my model gave me a little more room to work with than the Furme Pro Plus, which was a nice bonus.

Winner: It’s a tie. Both machines have incredible suction and capture virtually 100% of the loose fur you brush out. The only variable is canister size, and both brands offer multiple options, so you just need to buy the size that’s right for your pet.

  • The Clipper Challenge: A Smooth Cut or a Hacking Mess?

This is where I found the second biggest difference.

I use clippers to trim my dog’s paws, sanitary areas, and the fluffy “grinch feet” fur that grows between his pads.

The Furme clippers were fantastic.

They were sharp, and the ceramic blades stayed cool to the touch.

The built-in vacuum suction pulled the hair up as I clipped, which made for a much more even and professional-looking cut.

It glided through his fur without any pulling or snagging. This feature alone cut my paw-trimming time in half.

The Oneisall clippers were… good, but not great. They felt less sharp. On the fine paw fur, they worked well enough, but when I tried to trim a thicker, slightly matted area behind his ear, it snagged. It required more passes to get a clean cut, which my dog didn’t appreciate.

It’s perfectly adequate for light trims, but I wouldn’t want to do a full-body clip on a thick-coated dog with it. I’ve also seen some scattered user reports about the Furme clippers being dull, but my personal experience was the opposite—my Furme was significantly sharper.

Winner: Furme. The clippers felt more professional, cut more smoothly, and handled thicker fur with ease.

  • The Attachment Arsenal: Who Gives You More Tools?

This is where the battle swings back in the other direction.

Furme gives you the high-quality essentials. The de-shedder is aggressive (in a good way) on the undercoat, the grooming brush is great for finishing, and the clippers are top-notch. It’s a focused, premium kit.

Oneisall gives you everything. The de-shedder and grooming brush work just as well as Furme’s. The clippers are a step down, but then you get the extras.

  1. The Nail Grinder: This was a huge win. It attaches to the vacuum hose, so as you grind the nail, the dust is sucked away. No more nail dust all over my pants!
  2. The Paw Trimmer: A smaller, more precise clipper for getting right between the pads.
  3. The Dryer: This was the biggest surprise. After a rainy walk, I attached the dryer nozzle. It’s a gentle, warm (not hot) stream of air. My dog, who hates the high-velocity professional dryer, actually tolerated this. It’s not powerful enough to dry a soaked Golden Retriever quickly, but for drying paws or a damp belly, it was incredibly useful.

Winner: Oneisall. The value here is just off the charts. Getting a vacuum, brushes, clippers, a nail grinder, and a dryer in one purchase is an amazing deal.

The Furme Analysis: Pros and Cons

After weeks of testing, here is my detailed breakdown of the premium contender.

Pros:

furMe Professional PLUS Pet Grooming Vacuum
  • Unmatched Quietness: This is its number one selling point. The low-frequency hum is non-threatening, making it the clear choice for pets with noise anxiety.
  • Superior Clipper Quality: The clippers are sharp, stay cool, and cut through thick fur smoothly. The vacuum-assisted clipping is a revelation for getting an even cut.
  • Premium Build Quality: The unit feels durable, the hose is flexible but tough, and the attachments click into place with a satisfying, solid feel.
  • Excellent Suction: On all models, the suction is fantastic and easily manages heavy shedding, capturing all loose fur before it can escape.

Cons:

  • The Price: It is a premium product with a premium price tag. It’s an investment.
  • Fewer Attachments: The standard kits focus on the essentials. You don’t get the “extras” like a nail grinder or dryer that come standard with many Oneisall kits.
  • Model-Dependent Canister: The “Original” 1L canister is just too small for medium or large dogs. You really need to spring for the Pro Plus (2L) or Ultra (4.5L) if you have a serious shedder, which adds to the cost.

The Oneisall Analysis: Pros and Cons

And here is my detailed breakdown of the high-value all-rounder.

Pros:

  • Incredible Value: This is the brand’s biggest strength. For a very reasonable price, you get a complete, salon-level grooming system.
  • The “All-in-One” King: The inclusion of a nail grinder, paw trimmer, and a dryer in one kit is amazing. The fact that the nail grinder suctions the dust away is worth the price of admission alone.
  • Great Suction Power: I found no meaningful difference in the effectiveness of the vacuum suction between Oneisall and Furme. Both get the job done perfectly.
  • Wide Range of Models: Oneisall offers corded models, cordless models, and specialty models (like the dryer combo), giving you a ton of options to fit your specific needs and budget.

Cons:

  • The Noise: It’s just plain louder than the Furme. For a calm dog, it’s fine. For a skittish dog, that extra 15-20 decibels could be the difference between a calm groom and a stressful one.
  • Average Clipper Quality: The clippers are not its strong suit. They work for light trims but can struggle with thick, matted, or curly hair, requiring multiple passes.
  • Build Feel: It feels less “premium” than the Furme. The plastic is a bit lighter, and the attachments don’t feel as robust. This is a minor complaint, as nothing broke or felt flimsy.

Who Should Buy Which?

After all this testing, my conclusion is that there isn’t one “best” machine. There is only the machine that is “best for you.”

You should buy the Furme if:

  • Your pet is extremely anxious, skittish, or terrified of noises. The whisper-quiet motor is the single biggest reason to choose this brand.
  • You have a dog with a very thick, curly, or difficult double coat (like a Bernese Mountain Dog, a Poodle, or a Doodle) who needs a full-body clip. The superior clipper quality will save you a lot of time and frustration.
  • You subscribe to the “buy nice or buy twice” philosophy and are willing to pay a premium for a tool that feels solid and specializes in doing its core job perfectly.

You should buy the Oneisall if:

  • You are on a budget but want a complete, effective solution. The value for money is unmatched.
  • Your pet is relatively calm and isn’t bothered by the sound of a fan or a small vacuum.
  • You want the maximum number of tools in one box. If you want to brush, de-shed, clip, and grind nails or dry paws, the Oneisall 7-in-1 or 8-in-1 kits are the obvious choice.
  • You like having options, such as choosing between a portable cordless model or a more powerful corded one.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Which is better, Oneisall or Furme?

It depends on your needs. Furme is generally better for noise-sensitive, anxious pets and for those needing heavy-duty clippers for thick coats. Oneisall offers better value and more versatility, with all-in-one kits that often include a nail grinder and dryer, making it a great choice if your pet isn’t overly anxious.2

Are Oneisall dog clippers good?

They are good for light-to-medium grooming, like trimming paws or light body work. However, for very thick, matted, or curly coats, they can struggle and may require more passes than a premium, professional-grade clipper.

Is Oneisall a Chinese company?

Oneisall is an international brand whose products, like most small electronics, are manufactured in China.3 They are sold globally on major platforms like Amazon and through their own direct website, and are a very popular, established brand in the pet-grooming space.

What is better than the furminator?

The FURminator is a specific brand of de-shedding blade, which can sometimes be harsh on a dog’s skin if used incorrectly. Many groomers and owners prefer an undercoat rake for double-coated dogs, as it’s often gentler while still being highly effective at removing loose undercoat. For other coats, a slicker brush is a great all-around tool for removing tangles and loose fur.

Conclusion: My Grooming Life is Changed

For me, this experiment was a complete success. I’ve gone from a 2-hour-long, high-stress, fur-covered battle to a 30-minute, calm, and clean grooming session that my dog actually enjoys.

Both the Furme and the Oneisall solved my primary problem: they captured the fur at the source, eliminating the mess. But they did it in different ways. The Furme won my dog’s trust with its silence, while the Oneisall won me over with its incredible versatility.

Ultimately, you have to make the call. Are you prioritizing the experience for a nervous pet, or are you prioritizing the utility of an all-in-one system? Once you answer that, your choice between these two fantastic brands will be clear.

Happy grooming!
