I purchased this as a replacement for a failing Hoover Windtunnel that was about ten years old. Since it was an emergency purchase, the price was very attractive and reasonable. Because of the durability of my previous model as well as Consumer Reports ratings I had to have another Hoover. I have mixed feelings about this model. First I'll say that what it can clean it cleans very well. It is lighter than my other vacuum and easy to use. Since I have all the parts from my old vacuum and they are compatible I am able to adapt and deal with the limitations of this model. However, if you don't have Hoover extras lying around or this is your first vacuum purchase, be aware of some things.

The power tool is ok, but inferior to the power hand tool on my previous model that has bristles. I am finding it takes more effort and time to achieve the same cleaning results with this power tool. It does eventually get the job done. As others have noted, the stretch hose is unmanageable with the vacuum turned on. Since only one extension wand is included I have to use the ones from my old vacuum to be able to clean without breaking my back. There is no dusting tool, dirt sensor or edge cleaning on this model. Considering this is supposed to be their latest product I find this disappointing.You would think their latest offering would include at least one model with all the bells and whistles some of us have come to rely on. The pet hair tool is ok, but doesn't seem to work any better than the upholstery tool on my old vac. Love the cord rewind! It is fabulous.

Then there is the dust bin. Bagged or bagless? It's a hard choice to make. Each has it's benefits and disadvantages. I tried my best, but would often forget to change the bag on my previous model until it was overfilled. Even with bagged models there is some dust when changing the bags. That is why I said the heck with it and decided to try the bagless model. I do think the bagless vacuum is helping me clean better because I can see the dirt. I think the dirt cup has much less capacity than a bag, but having to empty it several times just to complete one house cleaning has made me realize I didn't empty the bag nearly enough before. I'm still perfecting the bin dump technique but do have some suggestions. If possible do the emptying outside. The dust plume is unavoidable. Use a bag or can that has a wide opening you don't have to hold to avoid spills. Wear disposable gloves because you will have to pull the dirt out by hand. That is especially true if you have pets. I am considering purchasing an extra dust bin and filter to make maintenance easier. Also be aware that the filter needs to be changed about every two years.

I would plan to purchase extra accessories not included with this model in order to achieve thorough cleaning unless you already have extras. The cleaning is excellent. The vacuum is good overall not great. I would like to see a full featured version in the future and would choose to buy it. For the money I think it is a very good buy. Make sure to read the instruction manual. Some of the problems other reviewers had are addressed in the manual. I followed all the instructions and did not have problems.
