There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was originally leaning toward a Dyson because I wanted something high quality that was going to last. Their ads were pretty convincing. So I borrowed one from my sister that she bought last month. It was very nice and did a good job, but it is also 4-5x the cost. I decided to test them side by side. I vacuumed 2 bedrooms that are within 1 sq ft the same size that see about the same amount of use. I did one with my new Hoover and one with the Dyson. I couldn't tell a bit of difference between the results. Both rooms were cleaned with no bits of string or dirt left over. Then I switched and used each on the other room the other had just vacuumed. The hoover got a bit more out whereas the Dyson barely got any more out. Given the performance and the huge cost difference, I was very, very content with my purchase. When I told my sister the results, she said she may return hers and get this one given the cost difference.
I vacuumed the whole house with the new hoover and I was very happy with the quality and the weight. It was far easier to maneuver than my older heavier model, but about the same as the Dyson I had to test with. Also the noise was noticeably lower than my older machine. We have a cat and a dog inside and it was able to get the fur up in 1 normal pass (forward and back), which I was happy about.
Overall I have used this to clean the house carpets and bare floors and it worked excellently. I highly recommend this vacuum.
Pros:
1) Quality of cleaning was great. Afterwards the carpets looked clean and fresh.
2) Weight - very easy to get upstairs and use on stairs.
3) Noise - it was lower, but it is still a vacuum cleaner.
4) Cost - For $100 you can't beat this vacuum. Now the Dyson may last 10 years and this one 5, but I can buy 5 of these units for the cost of one Dyson.
Cons -
1) We have thicker carpet downstairs and it was a little difficult to push it forward. However, this was the same as my older model as well as the Dyson I tried. This was not a big deal, it was just something I noticed.
2) Plug location - the plug is at the bottom. I found I had to hold to cord in my hand while I vacuumed. Again, not a big deal to me as I'm used to doing that. However, I could see some folks not wanting to bend down to retract it. On the flip side, the retraction mechanism worked great.
The belt for mine broke within 3 months. Buy replacements from Target since they have real belts that are thick enough to handle the stretching. The thick belts will say they are genuine Hoover and not a generic like Walmart and Amazon carry. You have to pull very hard to get the belt on since it was designed to fit very snug. Don't be a sissy, imagine you are working out at the gym to get into shape to get an idea of how hard you will need to pull. I pull the large roller to get it on after I put the other side on and loop the belt around the roller. I think the belts tend to break if they start to rub against a non-moving part of the vacuum. The belts have to stretch at least an inch to get on.
This vacuum will pick up hair, including dog hair well. Hair will get stuck on the roller and in the interior of the canister, so expect to have to rip it off.
The suction is powerful. I had a metal spoon get stuck in the tubing. The green indicator signal starting turning red as a result. I had to unscrew and disassemble the vacuum in order to clean it out and all the dust balls that got stuck inside. One improvement would be to put a grate on the hose so it doesn't pick up large objects such as spoons or other objects that should be picked up by hand before vacuuming.
I very much like the bagless canister design since I can tell when I need to empty it, which is often. I don't mind getting my hands dirty to clean it. The connection between the canister and the hose is just a rubber grommet. It could be improved to make a better connection.
The hepa filter will need to be washed every so often to keep it somewhat clean. It is hidden from view, which is better than some other vacuums since it means a toddler will not be trying to poke a hole in it with their fingers.
The motor will get moderately hot with use. Some earlier models had issues where it could get too hot, but those are no longer sold and were subject to a recall.
The rewindable cord is a very nice feature since I dislike having to wrap cords by hand. The vacuum is powerful enough to rip the insulation on the wire, so you need to be careful about not running over the cord. I usually end up having to hold the cord in my other hand as a result.
Every once and a while you may need to wash parts of the vacuum to get rid of the dust and lint that will stick to it.
The vacuum is not very heavy and is not difficult to push. I would say it is average compared to most other vacuums for a weight comparison.
Despite some of these issues, the cost is one fourth that of a Dyson and the functionality is good. So I gave it 5 stars since it will perform better than most vacuums. It could have some improvements, but I will not complain given it is inexpensive.

This vacuum itself is shipped in two pieces in which can be put together in a matter of seconds. The canister, and tools are all fully assembled so it is pretty much ready to use in a couple of minutes.
The vacuum has a lot of suction and has never had a problem picking up anything whether using attachments or the main unit. It has a height switch to adjust the brushes to varying carpet levels as well as bare floor which it also excels at. It also has a mechanical gauge on the side of the canister that will tell you when the vacuum canister needs to be emptied which can come in handy if you are doing large rooms or not paying attention to the contents of the canister. Granted this gauge still requires you to look down so it still requires the user to be mindful of this. The cord rewind system is great and I have had no problems with it in the three months I have used it. Basically, it is a spring loaded system that loads when you pull the cord out and when you are done with the cord you can pull a lever and the cord winds back up within the unit. The lever to cause the cord to rewind is located on the base of the vacuum near the bottom of the canister and may be intended to use your foot to operate it. I personally use a hand as I feel there will be less chance of breaking it this way. I can see how if this feature was to break it would defeat the point of this model of vacuum and the user would have to find somewhere to store the cord.
The build quality of the vacuum is what is probably expected in most vacuums in the price range, plastic, plastic and more plastic. The vacuum is very light but it does not seem to be structurally rigid and you can feel this especially when you pick it up to take it up stairs. If someone was to be pretty rough with this product I do not know if problems would arise.
Having the HEPA filter and the washable filter is a nice touch as you can have the benefits of both. The washable filter collects a lot of the dirt and can clearly be seen on the underside of the filter when you take it out, and whatever gets through this filter is caught by the HEPA. The advantage here is if you keep the washable filter clean, the HEPA should not have to be changed very often. A cautionary note would be when you wash the filter it can take a long time to dry and you should not plan to vacuum again that day. I live with allergies and I have to say they are not made worse by using this vacuum and I would only look at vacuums with HEPA filters in the future.
I will update in the future describing how the vacuum and the cord rewind system has held up.
Pros
-good price
-lots of suction
-HEPA and washable filters
-cord rewind
-lightweight
Cons
-plastic construction (long term durability questions?)
-durability of cord rewind system remains to be determined
The vacuum itself has great suction and cleans carpets well. Too bad the tools don't include a couple of extension wands and a floor brush for hard floors and getting under furniture. The included suction powered tool is only moderately useful as quite a small amount of force to push the brush on furniture etc. will stall the rotating brush.
Bagless is all well and good, but this is messy to empty. Static electricity makes dust stick inside and outside of the container. Fluffy waste has to be pulled out by hand and/or by removing the top of the container in addition to opening the bottom hatch. Definitely have to empty the vacuum outside and into a large bag to try to contain try to contain the dust. Take a soft brush along to sweep off the dust that sticks to the dirt container.
Being able to rinse the filter clean is a good feature. It will clog up with fine dust (more than you want to admit came from your home!) And reduce the suction of the vacuum. It takes about a day to dry the filter, but then the vacuum is back to full power.
This is a decent machine for the price, but my review is made lukewarm by the difficulty in emptying the dirt container.
- The attachment hose is very short to be useful except in the immediate vicinity of the vacuum. However we have a canister vacuum for that. This is a replacement for an upright, so the short hose is OK.
- The inability to turn off the beater would be a shortcoming if we wanted to use the attachments. I understand there is an upgrade model where the beater can be turned off. If you want to use the attachments, that feature would be necessary (otherwise the beater beats the floor/rug all the time you are using the attachments).
- The cord rewind feels insubstantial and I expect it will be the first thing to go.
- The easy clean and replace filter system is nicely designed.
- After all that, it is a very good and powerful upright vacuum!
