Hoover LINX

Product Description

Hoover Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum , Hoover Turbopower Windtunnel Anniversary Upright Vacuum , Product Description Equipped with Hoover's patented WindTunnel technology, this cordless and bagless stick vacuum cleaner uses the power of rotating brushes and three suction tunnels to lift and trap dirt. The unit's motorized power brush picks up even deep-down dirt in the thickest plush carpeting, while the one-touch switch on the handle turns off the brushroll, making it easy to transition from carpets to hard-floor surfaces. Move effortlessly throughout the house thanks to the cleaner's cordless design--no more having to stop to re-plug the power cord when moving from room to room. The machine runs on an interchangeable 18-volt Lithium Ion battery, which ensures maximum "fade-free" power right up until the battery is completely drained. Its battery-fuel gauge clearly indicates the amount of battery life remaining, and the included Energy Star battery charger quickly and efficiently powers it back up to a full charge. Other details include an 11-inch-wide nozzle with a wide-mouth opening, automatic height adjustment, edge cleaning bristles for closer access along baseboards and corners, soft non-marring rear wheels, and a low-profile base and reclining handle for access under furniture, as well as a comfort-grip handle and the ability to stand upright on its own without needing to lean against a wall for convenience and storage. Lightweight at just over 7-1/4 pounds, this cordless stick vac measures approximately 11 by 8 by 42 inches and carries a two-year limited warranty on the vacuum and a two-year limited warranty on the battery and charger. To maximize the life of your battery, do not store it on your charger unless the charging unit is unplugged. The Hoover Platinum Series The Hoover Platinum Series allows you to step up to a new level up luxury while you clean. The entire collection features a sleek and contemporary design scheme, as well as cutting edge cleaning technology. The LINX stick vac combines two modern conveniences—a bagless design means there is no need to continually buy replacements, and the cordless feature means you can travel from room to room with no worries about cord length or outlets. The Lithium Ion battery included allows you to monitor your charge while constantly delivering full power with “fade-free” technology. The included battery charger features a blue LED indicator strip so you can monitor the charging process, which is usually fully complete in less than four hours.

FIVE STARS. THE PERFECT VACUUM HAS ARRIVED.(Hoover Platinum Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum) I am a male homeowner (engineer) with a wife and 4 children and am a vacuuming nut. I actually modified TWO 7 year old eureka "theboss cordlesss upright vacuum" to use sears lithium batteries because the nickel cadmium batteries all other vacuums use are so poor. Then I found the hoover vac with linx or lithium batteries. WOW!!! I now have one of these on all 3 floors of our house. Talk about convenient and easy to use. The recharger is plugged in and ready and sits nearby. My wife and I love being able to just grab a lightweight vac whenever we want and just clean a spill made by our active toddler or vacuum a room when it needs it. No more winding and unwinding cords and pulled back muscles and scraped hands struggling to bend over furniture to plug and unplug and remove baby protectors and wasted trips back and forth to the outlets hidden behind sofa's etc. No more backbreaking trips up and down the stairs with a 20 pound vacuum in and out of the closet. I know people will say I am a nut, but YES I actually ENJOY vacuuming now. It is like the difference between a gas pushmower and driving my green riding tractor around the yard. This vac saves hours of time, because you spend your time vacuuming rather than plugging and unplugging 12 times and dragging a heavy vacuum up and down 2 flights of stairs and back and forth. AND BONUS!!! the carpet is cleaner because we vacuum more often and the AIR is cleaner with less dust in the air. You can pick these up new for just around $120 on the internet and they are worth every penny! I also got a Lithium hand vac! Awesome as well. You see how much dirt Both of these units pick up and it is amazing. Our family loves to snack(ie drop crumbs all over from pizza, toast, etc) and we keep the upright in the kitchen/family room and we use it every day to keep the area looking great after meals and snacks. And yes, it works great on carpet also! The other area we clean all the time is by the door. We are in and out a lot and it is great for picking up the sand and leaves etc each day. Our house always looks clean. If you want to vacuum 4500 square feet in one pass, this may not be the vac for you, but we do a room here and there as needed and we generally recharge the battery once a week. Only a lithium battery is going to allow you to do that. I hope Hoover does well with this item and that we see lots of competition follow suit. I would like to see a high end dual 24volt battery model with upholstery brush. Our regular vac went in the garbage can this week. While others are making giant expensive vac's that look like spaceships and are self propelled monsters, Hoover is on the right track. Light, powerful and easy to use! And way more convenient then a central vac which costs hundreds more! I could go on and on...did I mention the 6 year warranty? And NO , I don't work for Hoover or know anyone that does. MY VOTE FOR PRODUCT OF THE YEAR 2009.
