Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Anniversary Edition, Bagged, S3670

Product Description

Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Anniversary Edition, Bagged, S3670 Product Description The Hoover® WindTunnel® bagged canister vacuum is easy to use and flexible enough to clean any surface in your home! Powerful suction cleans carpeting, upholstery, hardwood, tile, and more. For a powerful, deep-down clean, this bagged canister vacuum features a 15-inch power nozzle with WindTunnel technology. Three distinct air channels lift and trap dirt, keeping it from scattering back into the carpet, so dirt ends up trapped in the bag and not on the floor. Fingertip controls turn the brushroll on and off for transitioning from carpets to bare floors, while variable speed control with illuminated LEDs makes it easy to control the suction power. The unit also traps 99.97-percent of dust and pollens down to 0.3 microns in size thanks to the HEPA media bag. On-board tools clean hard-to-reach nooks and crannies. The long cord and hose let you reach high corners and under furniture without having to re-plug, while the 360-degree swivel connection on the hose gives you the flexibility to move around corners and into all areas of your house with ease. A 25' cord rewind means no more winding—just gently tap the pedal with your foot to retract the cord neatly inside. With the 14" wide power nozzle brushroll you’ll quickly and easily loosen and lift out deep down dirt1, dust, hair and allergens. Other thoughtful details include edge-cleaning bristles, a quick-release telescopic wand, and an ergonomic D-grip handle for comfort and control, as well as an electronic full-bag indicator, ultra-smooth rolling casters, a headlight, and a 25-foot cord with automatic rewind. The vacuum cleaner measures 6 by 20 by 45-1/2 inches with the wand and nozzle and carries a three-year limited warranty.

This review is from: Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Anniversary Edition, Bagged, S3670 (Kitchen)
I was a fan of Hoover vacuums to begin with, but this one is the best I've ever used. I recently had all of my carpet replaced with Pergo laminate, and I am very concerned about keeping it clean without damaging it with the brush roll on a vacuum. I also have two cats, one of which is very long-haired.

The power on this vacuum is great. At full power, I don't even have to get near something for it to pick it up. The first day I got the vacuum, I picked a room with the least furniture in it and vacuumed it. I then went behind it with a Swiffer sweeper and checked the cloth. The cloth was almost completely clean, and the room had been very dirty and sandy from cat litter prior to that.

It is very easy to use. The video on the product page for this vacuum shows it well. Changing to one of the attachments is very easy, as is extending the handle/wand. For me, it is not simply a vacuum, but it is now my duster as well. There is no reason for me to ever use a duster that can re-spread the dust around again.

Also, I saw someone complain about the power head being too powerful and damaging a rug or coming off the floor. I did find that vacuuming a throw-rug on the floor at full power was not useful. However, turning the power down to the lowest setting and turning the brush roll on got all my rugs cleaner than my previous upright Hoover did.

I read a couple of reviews before buying this that talked about a few of the pieces being made of plastic, which concerned them. If I inspect the vacuum, I realized it has some (very thick) plastic parts. However, none of it seems the least bit flimsy or easily breakable to me.

I've only had this for a couple of weeks, but I will update this review if anything changes or I notice anything else.
