What can I say? The machine arrived well within the specified time. I took it out of the box, put the handle on it, and plugged it in. Every thing is doing a great job, plenty of suction, and the self propelled part is a blessing.

My son needed a vacuum and I decided to treat myself to a new Windtunnel and gift him with the old one. In 10 years the changes are subtle but welcomed. The cord is longer, softer and easier to wind, there are less crevices on the vacuum body to capture dirt, the machine is quieter but the same power that made me a fan of Hoover Windtunnel is still there. I am so glad I bought another Hoover.

Excellent Vacuum! This product picks up wonderfully and leaves the carpet looking clean and fresh, not frayed and grooved by the beater-bar like some cheaper vacuums out on the market today.

I had this vacuum cleaner for 1 week and the carpet/floor switch broke off when I was turning it from floor to carpet. I liked the way the vacuum picked up items from hardwood floors, but now the switch is broken. My husband thought he might be able to take the vacuum apart and try and fix it, but after a quick assessment, he decided that it wouldn’t be easy. I could have used the vacuum on the floors in the carpet mode I suppose, but I decided to return it and look for another vacuum. It needs to have a better switch design.

The vacuum seemed like it would fit my needs, but I will never know. It’s sitting, repacked with all the parts and screws and paperwork inside the box – along with the extra bags I purchased – waiting for UPS to pick it up and deliver it back to AMAZON. The vacuum did not work. It has a beater brush – agitator – which is supposed to spin when the vacuum is in carpet position. Guess what? You got it. The bar did not spin. When I followed the directions to see if perhaps it wasn’t set up right, the belt – which was supplied and in the machine when I got it – didn’t connect with the rest of the machine. The machine also rattled like crazy and did not feel solid. I would have let that go if the machine worked. Big disappointment. So now I wait for UPS to pick up, Amazon to get it, and credits to come back to me. What an unnecessary hassle. Surprised because Amazon usually is a lot better than this.
