I have had this vacuum for a while now. The price was a little bit high, but I am hoping to have it for a long time. That will make up the price. The machine works well. All of he pieces are easy to use with it. I hate using vacuum bags, because I was alway filling them up too quickly and it seemed like my hardware store never had the right size. I don't have to worry about that with this vacuum. Overall I really like this vacuum cleaner, because it does a good job. I mostly have to vacuum up kids crumbs and kitty cat fur. A lot of place sell hoover vacuums, so it is easy to find and I would buy it again. The machine is not too heavy to carry around the house either. Also, it is not too loud.

We got the Hoover as a replacement to our old vacuum which was just not working as well as we'd like. My main concern was getting something that was light-weight to carry since we have stairs (and they are carpeted too!). I also was originally on the hunt for one of those bagless vacuums, but saw this model on sale and so because of the Hoover brand reputation decided to give it a try. It is not the lightest vacuum that I've ever used (the Shark we had previously was lighter), but it is still highly maneauverable, and I can handle the stairs although not with the greatest of ease. There are multiple settings, and it comes with multiple attachments which come in handy. While it works better than the old vacuum, I still have to chek the bottom after a couple of uses and get scissors to cut out the hair that is wrapped around the brush. Not sure if I'll ever find a vacuum where I can avoid that since I have very long hair.

Hoover certainly lived up to its reputation with this vacuum. It isn't too heavy, easy to manuver and I've only been through one belt in the nearly six years of owning one. We got this as a wedding present and it has been through the messes of three children so far, and it never quits. I havn't noticed it losing suction power, and I love that I can simply dump the contents of the vacuum, rather than having to change bags, or throw them away- how wasteful! I do recommend this vacuum to everyone. The pieces attach so simply that they are easy to keep up with and even easier to use. This made a perfect first vacuum cleaner. I also like to take it outside and vacuum out my vehicles with it rather than take them to town to do it.

This is great for dirt, grime, and big loose articles of anything that has spilled. The attachments are much better than anything I have ever owned. It does ok with liquids but obviously wouldn't recommend it. Overall very satisfied, although it's a bit too noisey.

I love this vacuum!! I love how it goes from hard floor to carpet without having to adjust anything. I love everything about this vacuum. I originally wanted to get something bagless but this has an allergin indicator on it and it has really helped!

We bought this vacuum about 3 years ago, after our older model vacuum gave out. It was recommended to us by a friend. The roller can be set from hardwood to carpet settings and we have not yet had to replace the brush. The bags are supposed to be "allergen filtration bags" and there is an indicator on the machine that lets you know when the bag is full.  But the indicator is on the front of the machine and only works when the machine is on, and if you don't think to stop and look down at the front of it after turning it on you may not realize the bag is full until your floor just is not getting cleaned. I have 2 small boys, a dog, and 4 cats. My house is anything but spotless and clean. But this vacuum can keep up with all the dust, food crums and pet hair. I clean it out after every use and it has yet to give me any problems. It works great on hardwood floors also. I recommend this vacuum to anybody with a full house.

We got this vacuum for our wedding about 3 & 1/2 years ago.  The roller can be set from hardwood to carpet settings and we have not yet had to replace the brush.  The bags are supposed to be "allergen filtration bags" and there is an indicator on the machine that lets you know when the bag is full.  However, the indicator is on the front of the machine and only works when the machine is on, so if you don't think to stop and look down at the front of it after turning it on you may not realize the bag is full until your floor just is not getting cleaned.  Today I spent about an hour cleaning out the hose because huge masses of dirt and carpet fibers were clogging the intake hole.  Somehow, the mess did not get into the bag and just sat in the hose.  It was very difficult to clean out but, happily, the machine was very easy to take apart and put back together again and it works great again.
