Should I get an anti-tangle brush for my vacuum?

Anti-tangle brushes trade a sliver of deep-carpet performance for zero maintenance, making them worth it for most households, especially those with pets or long hair. Traditional bristle brushes might claw out slightly more dirt from deep-pile carpet, but the difference is marginal — and you’re paying for it by regularly cutting hair off the brush roll with scissors. For almost everyone, the convenience of never having to unclog the brush wins.
