this vacuum doesn't suck, it's the other "S" word!

 

this vacuum doesn't suck, it's the other "S" word!

We purchased this new in 2007 and it is the biggest piece of crap I have ever spent money on!. The self cleaning filter doesn't self clean so the vacuum gets cloggged. The pet hair removal tool is a joke as it quickly plugs up with pet hair and you...

Built to bust

 

Built to bust

The self cleaning HEPA filter motor is built to break after a period of time. I just spent the past two hours cleaning out the entire vacuum and decided to fix the filter as well. The motor for the filter still spins, but the filter does not. The...

bummer

Bought this vacuum lasted a whole 6 months! The only good thing I can think of is that 1) looks like a transformer 2) while it was working had great suction. The thing just died one day but what was a bigger bummer was that the "double reach" coil...

"Self-cleaning" filter failed

 

"Self-cleaning" filter failed

The self-cleaning filter quit working, after which the vacuum clogs. I had to junk the vacuum.

Seriously, don't even think about buying this vacuum.

 

Seriously, don't even think about buying this vacuum.

So, my old vacuum broke and we needed an emergency replacement because we had company coming over. After buying it, I read Consumer Reports rating and it was favorable, so I was relieved. Well, that did last long. The first couple times I used it I...

Poor quality parts

 

Poor quality parts

This vacuum cleans well but the quality of the materials used are suspect. The plastic on the body of the machine broke where the bottomplate screws into. This is my fifth Hoover and it is the only one that is so poorly made. I still have two older...

Yes, all the reviews are true. This TRULY is a flawed design in more ways than one

 

Yes, all the reviews are true. This TRULY is a flawed design in more ways than one

This thing sucks for these reasons... 1. The self cleaning filter doesn't work AT ALL. It clogs after only a few uses, and turns this thing into a nasty smelling, dust spewing beast. I think this thing actually creates more dust than it picks up. 2....

love the suction power

 

love the suction power

I really can not say that this is the best vacuum for the price on the market because I haven't tried all of them, but it does do a very good job. It is true that the vacuum is hard to push, but only on the low carpet setting. However, I don't mind...

Faulty HEPA filter design

 

Faulty HEPA filter design

When this vacuum was brand new, it performed very well. However, as others have pointed out, eventually the self-cleaning HEPA filter stops working. It our case it was because the transmission that's responsible for turning the HEPA filter isn't...

This is junk

 

This is junk

Don't buy this. The Hepa filter jams with dirt and you will spend a very messy hour cleaning it for every hour you spend vacuuming. After warranty expired the filter rotating mechanism broke due dirt getting in the gears. Repair cost is $150. Also,...
