great vacuum
My ~2005 upright Eureka recently died so I needed a replacement. I would’ve purchased the same one again, but of course it was discontinued, and I didn’t like the newer models as they seemed several steps down; so, I started a search for a replacement. I wanted something with about the same specs: ~12A motor for suction power, ~13″ cleaning path, manual wind up cord (retractable is great until it stops working), non-swivel upright portion (never had a need for this), brush roller turns off when using the hose, 15-20 lb weight (big motor and quality construction to stand up to use over time), uses a bag, and costs about $200. It seems that most of the top rated vacuums on Amazon are ~$100, 10 lbs, and many have 8A motors- if you search for the specs. I don’t think a vacuum will have enough suction power with an 8A motor (they compensate by a narrower cleaning path), or at 10 lbs have quality construction to last- unless maybe you just have a tiny apartment.Anyway, this vacuum has everything on my wanted list except for the bag. I’ve only used it a few times, so I can’t comment on durability over time, but I’m impressed with the power and what it picks up. The minor negatives are that the brush is odd shaped and the red bristles fall out- although it’s getting better over time. The power cord’s insulation isn’t as flexible as a high quality cord- this one holds its shape and the bends from the factory packaging haven’t relaxed out after two months. It has a headlight but isn’t very bright or useful. These are only minor negatives. I don’t have pets or kids so I don’t have to vacuum very often; if it lasts me 10+ years I’ll be happy.

update not as good as the old version, but still a good vacuum for the price
I loved few things as much as I loved my Max Performance Pet vacuum from Hoover. what a workhorse, and after 3-4 years, still has the suction of a hull breach in deep space. but Monday, it randomly shut off mid-clean, and remained dead.as amazing as my vacuum was, I wanted to replace it with the same model. Hoover has, unfortunately, made some….. “upgrades” to the model.first and foremost, you can no longer turn off the brush roller. I kind of hate that, because when you go over non-carpet floors, the roller has a tendency to spit particulate matter out behind the vacuum. I took a star off for that.secondly… reduced mumber of height positions. more variability is always desirable, but this change wasn’t impactful enough to cost it a start.but lastly… it is, sadly, not as strong as before. my old vacuum has such powerful suction that on its lowest bare floor position, it would become almost difficult to move. (maybe the always-on roller is affecting this) no such issue with this update. I genuinely feel like I’ve lost 20% of the cleaning power, which is disappointing, as my old vacuum deep cleaned my hall runners to the point they looked brand new. while I was able to get them satisfactorily clean, it did take a few more passes. not a deal breaker — so far — but I won’t be able to make a full assessment until one of my cats graciously provides me with some dried vomit.so in summation: Hoover has unfortunately away with some of the nice features of the older version, and suction is not quite as powerful as before. however, if you haven’t owned an older version, you won’t know to miss these features. still a solid choice, with enough suction to adequately clean up after the hair and dust generated by three cats (vomit performance, pending). can’t bring myself to give it 5 stars though, just because the older version was *so amazing*, and I do feel let down.HOOVER: IF IT AIN’T BROKE, DON’T FIX IT!!! ð

I like the vacuum its worked great for three years. I was vacuuming and machine shut off. I switched to different socket, still nothing. I need another vacuum machine.

Tenemos 18 gatos rescatados y la aspiradora anterior habÃa muerto por uso, tenÃa mis dudas sobre si esta podrÃa con todo el pelo que sueltan y debo decir que limpia excelente, retira todo el pelo de las camitas, tapetes y muebles (el cual es difÃcil de sacar) y tiene muy buena fuerza de succiÃ³n (incluso llega a adherirse al piso).Sin embargo, es muy ruidosa y algo pesada lo cual dificulta moverla entre los pisos de la casa pero vale la pena por lo bien que funciona.Lo Ãºnico que no me gustÃ³ es que el agarre del depÃ³sito (la pinza con la que se engancha al mango de la aspiradora) se safa con facilidad, pero no es como que se vaya a caer o algo mientras la usas, solo que si por error la agarras para moverla te vas a quedar con el depÃ³sito en la mano.No tiene cable retrÃ¡ctil para que lo consideren.

Si que el contenedor tiene solamente un pequeÃ±o ganchillo para sostenerse, sin embargo eso tiene soluciÃ³n haciendo presiÃ³n hacia dentro y listo. Que se me apago la primera vez que la use SI, eso pasÃ³ sin embargÃ³ la seguirÃ© usando para entrar en garantÃa. Y por Ãºltimo creo que le hacen falta mÃ¡s herramientas para limpiar, como otros modelos de Hoover los trae. Excelente succiÃ³n pero el sonido es fuerte, a eso yo no le veo problema.

Really Nice, Donât listen to the bad reviews.
Hoover wind tunnel 3, Max Pet has most all of the features I wanted in an upright vacuum. The most important features were: one that would fluff up the carpet, and was heavy enough it would stay in place when using the hose. A bagless that was easy to take apart and put back together. And a big enough dust bin that I didnât have to empty it after vacuuming every room. This one has 12 amps that gives it plenty of power and the suction doesnât diminish as the dirt tank fills up. Itâs got a pedal to turn off the roller/beater bar, so it will vacuum hard floors without spitting dust around the floor. I wanted to mention that it DIDNâT suck itself to the floor like a couple of reviews says it does. There is a dial to adjust the height. The 30 ft cord is the longest cord Iâve ever had on a vacuum. Itâs bagless with a large bin. 1.5 liter. Not the biggest bin Hoover makes. But the biggest one I could find with the roller/beater bar control pedal. We have 2 hairy dogs, I vacuumed 4 large rooms and still had room for more dirt. Itâs fairly easy to push, for what it is. Itâs a monster vacuum weighing 18lbs. Great news, it rolls easier than I expected it would. Again, it has adjustable height, so when it seemed hard to push, I raised it up one notch. Thereâs a 15â hose. With an extendable wand that disappointingly isnât quite long enough to use on the floor without bending over. But, Iâm using a longer wand from another vacuum. So, Itâs not a deal breaker for me. The clear plastic does show all the dirt though. Someone like me, going from a bagged version to a bagless version might not be used to seeing all the dirt and dog hair flying around. Although it was something we were all watching at first. Theres no bags to buy but the trade off is washing the dust bin. Itâs got a hepa and charcoal filter, that cannot be washed, but they donât need replaced very often according to the directions. And itâs got a washable dirt filter thatâs a flat sponge like thing. So it will be easy to wash, but It wasnât dirty at all, so I didnât have to wash it this time. The reviews said it was too loud? It sounds normal to me. Yes, itâs noisy, but not as loud as I thought it was going to be. The reviews said itâs hard to push the release pedal. But this one is so easy I was using it barefoot. The reviews said it was hard to take apart. But this is the easiest vacuum to take apart. A couple of reviews said they received s different model, so I double checked on the box before opening. I received exactly what I ordered. I believe the reviews must have been for a different vacuum even though they were shown under this model.
