| I have been seeing this product in my Consumer's Report Magazine for the last three years. It is ranked with other vacuums that cost around $300. The only issue was it was only good on noise. They were correct. The suction power is excellent and the allergen filter bags are also very nice to have. It is worth it, especially due to its cheap price!!! |

| I purchased this vacuum through Amazon. This is something new for me to do since I usually just go to stores and buy what I need. But I went on Amazon and read some reviews for this vacuum and there were so many positive reviews and you couldn't beat the price so I decided to purchase it. I am extremely pleased with the vacuum - its very basic but that is what I wanted. Plus everything went extremely smooth purchasing it through Amazon. |

"good vacuum price - belt broke on 2nd use" | 2008-10-05 |

| On the 2nd time we used this vacuum, the belt broke and the brush, of course, wouldn't turn. Had to run out and buy a few new belts to keep in stock. but the pickup of the vacuum is great. |

| Excellent product! We were very impressed with the way it works on our carpeted floor. We have a small 2BR apt, and I finished vacuuming the whole place in 10-12 minutes. So far, it is working well. If it runs for a year, It will be worth the money I paid. I recommend this product to most starter vacuum seekers. |

"Nice Vacuum for the Price" | 2008-09-24 |

| I've only had the vacuum a few months, but so far I've been pleased with the performance. It works great on our carpets and pretty good on the hardwood floors. It does seem to miss stuff along the edge, especially along baseboards - I have to go over it a few times. And the attachments are a little too short - to clear the cobwebs in my ceiling corners, I actually have to pick up the vacuum for the attachment to reach. |

| The Hoover Tempo Widepath is exactly what I wanted to vacuum the carpeting and hall in my second-story home. This vacuum replaces a Phantom for which I could not get parts. Occasionally I take it downstairs to use on a living room carpet. I use a Sears canister vacuum for hardwood floors downstairs and usually for upstairs walls and ceilings.br /br /The best features of the Hoover are:br / -- lightweight (I can easily carry it up and down stairs and it moves easily across the floor)br / -- great suction that picks up dog hair and other small itemsbr / -- price/performance is fantastic.br /br /I agree with previous reviewers who found the configuration a bit awkward for attachments and the cord which is too short.br /br / |

"Brushes never turn off, poor for pet hair" | 2008-09-20 |
| - Reviewed By User: A3HOOFXAWM6JC6 |
| I was excited to get this vacuum based on all the great reviews it got. It's relatively light and my wife prefers uprights. On the second use I accidentally ran over a cord and the brushes pulled it in, locked up, and ended up breaking the vacuum's motor belt. Because of the awkward placement of the on/off switch (on the body and not the handle), I couldn't turn it off in time to prevent this. So I went to the vacuum parts store feeling like a fool because I just broke my brand new vacuum and bought a new belt which was very inexpensive. After completing an easy repair, everything seemed to be working fine. My wife noticed it made an unusual smell- kind of a burning smell whenever it was on and refused to use it. Also the brushes NEVER turn off. So when you are using the attachment tools, the brushes are continuously going which is frustrating because you feel like it's digging a hole in the carpet. I have thicker, nice carpeting downstairs, which it does an okay job on (although it leaves lots of cat hair behind), but is useless on my cheap, very short carpet upstairs or the tile floors- it won't really pick up anything. I've owned this thing for over a year and today went out and bought a new vacuum. I'm planning on tossing this thing in the trash after dinner. :) |
