Great Vacuum! Doesn't eat carpet!

Date:February 9, 2011

"I will admit the review that says that it ate carpet scared me since we have what i call new age shag, but i figured that since it had 5 "power settings" for the suction, I would just turn the suction down. Even on the STRONGEST of suction, it didn't eat my carpet! This leaves me to believe the carpet that did get eaten was not high quality carpet, or was old.
The SUCTION IS AMAZING! I absolutely love the little mini power head, and i'm surprised at the bags! I've only had a bagless before but I hated the dumping and banging of the filter, so i figured I'd try bags this time. My only worry was that the bags would fill up really quick! NOT SO! Our old vacuum broke about 2 months back, so we haven't had a good vacuum through the house since then. I just went through three floors (3 large carpeted bedrooms and a carpeted hallway, large carpeted basement, two carpeted stairways, and a floor of hardwood with rugs), and the bag isn't even half full! And we have a cat! So most of it is car fur and it still isn't full! I expected to go through at least one full bag vacuuming this house today, but not so!
The suction is so great on the highest setting that on the large head, if you don't have the head properly locked into the handle, it will actually take off and unplug itself from the handle! WOW! Really got that cat fur off the carpet!
The wheels are a bit tiny, and the canister can be a bit annoying to pull, but i find it follows fine unless it gets caught on a chair or something.
The cord length is AWESOME! I got all the way up the stairs and down the bedroom hallway with the cord plugged in on the main floor (plug is about 10 feet away from the stairs).
My only real annoyance is the hose. It's a good quality thick hose, but it doesn't really bend or have very much mobility. If you need to change directions, you kinda have to readjust or twist it back around you or over your head.
I think that's about all i have to say. Don't let the review saying it eats carpet scare you, like it almost did me, into not buying this vacuum. If you have decent carpet the only thing it will suck up is the dirt and dander and fur!"

Not a lightweight... be prepared

Date:January 28, 2012

"I did a lot of checking on various vacuums before I finally purchased this Hoover. The reviews on it on this website and others were mixed, but I always consider that someone who doesn't like a product is more likely to review it than someone who merrily goes on using it happily and doesn't feel compelled to comment.

I think this is a good vacuum, but you should be aware of what you are getting before purchasing. It's big, its fairly heavy, and it doesn't move all that easily. I wanted something with cleaning power and those negatives didn't mean as much to me.

The cons-- as I said, large, heavy, awkward. It would be an ideal vacuum for a commercial space with a lot of ground to cover and not a lot of nooks and crannies. The hose is about 2' too long to be comfortable in a home, and tends to threaten to kink. Both ends swivel, which is great, but you have to use care to anticipate a kink coming and give things a twist. I wouldn't want to pull hard on a kink and possibly collapse the hose and weaken it at that point. The little wheels under it are too small, tends to hang it up even trying to cross its own cord. With the too long hose, it tends to be around a corner behind you and doesn't follow as well as it could. Perhaps Hoover felt this long hose is an asset, but in a home, it's a little too long. An odd thing is it puts out a lot of heat! Not sure how it will be on a hot summer day.

The Good Stuff: It has power. Good suction, and the power bar pulls against you so it digs in well (doesn't grab carpet and unravel in my experience... those users must have shags from the 60's). There is an on/off switch in the handle to turn off the power bar if needed. The wand adjusts to what is ideal for your height or comfort. The power head is wide.. maybe 15"? Seems to suck well along the edges.

They suggest you can kill the power bar and run over tile floors, but I don't like that (ceramic tile). It comes with a floor brush, but this has little wheels on the edges... perhaps great to keep an ideal height, but I didn't like the noise on the tile floors, so I foung the wand and floor brush from my tossed Panasonic vac fit the hose nicely, so I use that for smooth floors. The elec cord is quite long, ideal really, and winds back in nicely, far better than our former vac. It takes bags (Type S Hoover), but I don't mind that at all. Also has a couple of filters to be occasionally replaced, not sure on their cost. Suction strength can be adjusted on the main unit, haven't used that reduction much... would appreciate it more on the handle in an emergency of sucking in drapes or the like, but hasn't been much of an issue.

Overall... haven't had it long, but I like it. My wife probably wouldn't because of the size and weight. Be aware of what you are getting... bit of a tank, but that comes with power and ability that the little sticks just don't have."

Good but stopped working within 90 days

Date:October 8, 2011

"I bought this product in July'11 when it was on sale.
I didn't realize the drawbacks of using bag based vacuum as I never used one before. It comes with 2 bags and they get fill very soon. Initially I was very impressed with performance of this vacuum but yesterday, the lower portion stopped working. Seems like some internal wiring or motor is dead. Called Canadian Tire and they are exchanging it with new one. Product is nice but good name has issues too.
I would advice to keep purchase receipt at safe place. You never know you end up having same experience as I have."

carpet destroyer

Date:June 10, 2010

"I had one of these vacs and it had alot of power, actually too much power. I vac'd one of my clients carpets with it and before I was finished the job the bag was full of carpet fiber, had to change it. Funny thing when I returned to the store in Orleans, Ont where i purchased it and mentioned to the owner that I had a hoover windtunnel he replied with "oh that piece of junk, it is hard on the carpet fibres" and then I replied "yes, you sold it to me" should have seen his face. He had forgotten me and my purchase. Now that's a review from the horses mouth!!!buy a Miele, you won't regret it."

Good product, pain to use though !

Date:March 20, 2010

"I agree with the other reviews, this product is solid, its suction is great, long cord, does the job.

Problem is although the little wheels do move around they don't really go that straight or follow you straight so bump into a lot of things. Also my biggest pet peeve is the hose, its a quality product but man it has no give after 6 months of use, its still extremely rigid and doesn't spin around when you are using it so it pinches and knocks things over. I often have to stop and twist it so it straightens out."

Good purchase - awkward to maneuvre

Date:December 29, 2009

"I purchased the prior model to this one - it has many of the same parts and features. It has very good suction, and the beater is powerful. We have two large dogs, and with frequent emptying of the canister, it does a good job.

I agree with the prior reviewer that it needs better maneuverability - sometimes it tips over sideways rather than turning to follow me.

Good value for money."

Sucks well, moves poorly

Date:October 23, 2009

"Accessories work very well and exceptional suction. Good airflow to tools. I haven't tried the mini power head, but it is powered by airflow so it will probably not have much powerhead power.

It is really too bad they put such small wheels on this vaccuum. It is hard to pull around behind you and can't even run over its own cord (which is nice and long) Air coming out of the exhaust port is clean. I don't know why you would turn down the suction (I don't want to pick up all the dirt...) but the suction controls work as advertised."

Answer:

It comes with two bags in the box (one installed, one spare). I couldn't find the refill bags at my local canadian tire, but i can't imagine they're hard to find.
