Good Vac
I've had this vac for about 3 weeks and so far I am very satisfied with it. I actually had purchased the model below this but soon returned it and exchanged it for this one. I'm sure glad I did. My biggest likes about this vac is that it uses bags instead of bagless which means no mess when you go to change it. I also like how I can flip a switch to turn off the rotating brush so I can vacuum my rugs without the edges being sucked up in the vac, and I can easily vac my hardwood floor. Not to mention that it is self propelled. It also has a feature where the brush stops spinning when you have the handle in the upright position. That makes it easy for you to use the hose and attachments without having to worry if you are running over your cord as you pull it around with you. the pet hair attachment is one of my favorite things. It fits on the end of your hose and is basically like having a mini dust buster with a rotating brush which works quite well for removing cat hair from my furniture. At first I thought it might be a cheesy option but it turned out to work great. I wish the hose was a little bit longer. I think it is 8 feet long but seems a little shorter. sometimes if I am using the hose with an attachment I have to be careful because if I pull on the hose a little too much the vac seems easy to tip over. This vac also has a dirt sensor that is red while you are vacuuming which indicates that it is picking up dirt but then the light turns green when it no longer detects dirt. That is one feature that I'm not really concerned with and I dont really pay attention to that light. This Vac has worked out great for me and I would recommend it to anyone. In fact, I am going to order one for my mom for christmas and have it sent to her.

Beware!!!
Beware of this machine!! It literally falls to pieces in your hands. The belt comes off continuously. The on/off switch fails and you can't turn the dang thing off!!! It is a piece of garbage!!! Don't buy it!!!.....

Upright Hoover Self Propelled Vac is the BEST!

I previously bought one of these from you many years ago. Had great use of it up until things started to wear out. I tried to repair by getting parts from online vacuum parts, but there were no instructions on how to remove some of the more difficult parts. Bought this new one to replacde the old one, and it works just as well if not better then the old one ever did. Only complaint is the weight of it. I guess it is because the motor is more powerful. Thank you for carrying Hoover...

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Hoover self-propelled Windtunnel

I have been purchasing Hoover vacuums for a long time. They are good vacuums. I like that this one is self-propelled. It has a hepa filter and traps dust and pollens. I have allergies and a dog.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

The worst

Loud, awkward, hose is too short, clunky, heavy, attachments don't stay put, cord gets in the way. I wish I had never bought this.

So far so good

Replaced similar model that was about 30 years old. That is no typo. 30 yrs ! I would have repaired it but could not find a parts source for a unit that old. The new one seems to be a bit more powerful and the self propelled feature works more smoothly. I like the extra filtering we did not have before. It handles lightly on hard floors even with the self propelled turned off. Also handles easily on carpet when propelled is on. The only thing I really miss is the self winding power cord on the old one. That feature still works perfectly even after all those years! Don't know why they changed. This cord is longer but it is more difficult to uncoil and re-coil. I would gladly sacrifice extra length for push button auto recoil. Old had two motor speeds, new only one but no big deal. We considered units costing two to three times as much but bought based on past experience with older version. Don't expect 30 yrs this time but so far so good.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Cleans well. Bit noisy and self-propelled action a bit jerky until you have become used to it.

GREAT VACUUM CLEANER!!

I recently had new carpeting put down throughout my house. The new carpet is thicker than my old one; and it was difficult to push my old vacuum cleaner over it. With this new Hoover "SELF-PROPELLED" its a breeze!!

I would recommend this product to a friend.

I thought it was one of the best, but...

We used to own a Kirby. I have a bad back, so I wanted a vacuum that propells somewhat. It's not too heavy, it doesn't seem to clean corners. I got the idea to buy this product from Consumer Reports. I am not blaming them, though.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

I owned this same cleaner before and my ex took it with her. I did my research and purchased the same unit again, at a better price.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
