Hoover - Fold Away Vacuum Reviews

I was somewhat disappointed by the Hoover Fold-Away Vacuum mostly because I am familiar with the Hoover name and have come to expect great things from this brand.  While the vacuum is very conveniently sized and folds up to fit neatly in a closet just as advertised, the filter clogs constantly and we have lost count of how many belts we have had to replace.  You can tell it is vacuuming day  at our house by the scent of scorching rubber that comes to permeate the rooms if you do not stop the vacuum in time each time it picks up the odd something that does not agree with it, sometimes no more...

I was disapointed in this vacum, because I'm so used to Hoover being top quality.  All my Hoovers out last their cases.  I needed a new one, because my old Hoover's case broke and I had to tie it together.  This new Hoover is very pretty, but does have it's faults.  The bigest fault that I have found is that the air exhaust is too big.  The exhaust is a narrow strip along both sides of the waste compartment, which means that the dirt to your left and right gets blown all over the place.  The good part is that the cord is extra long, so you can go from room to room without having to unplug...

I love that you can fold it away and tuck it into the closet, however after the first couple of uses it loses suction due to the clogged filter.  Very disappointing! I'm going back to the old fashioned bagged vacuum.
