"Super Vacuum" | 2008-10-08 |

| This review is based on one month of ownership.The Hoover Electronic WindTunnel Bagless Canister is very quiet. The variable speed is a good feature, different speed for different surfaces. It fits under all of our wooden furniture easily. The canister is reasonable sized, with 5 cats, we have to empty it while using it, but it REALLY picks up the hair. The cord is long enough for us to do any room in our medium sized house. The only design feature that should be changed is that it is too easy to hit the "carpet/floor" button by accident and turn off the rollers. The attachments work well. |

| I purchased this vacuum because I had read so many good reviews. Unfortunately it did not work out of the box. I returned it to Amazon (as suggested by the Hoover representative I spoke with) for a replacement . My replacement was at my home 3 days later - a very quick process without any problems. It picks up dirt and dog hair better than ANYTHING I have ever seen. I vacuumed with our Oreck vacuum and steam cleaned the week before and was amazed at how much dirt was left behind by both of those items. I do have to agree with quite a few reviews on here that the dirt cup is very small, but it IS a compact vacuum and will be used in a new apartment within the month. Definitely a GREAT purchase! |

| I've had this vacuum for a couple weeks now and like it a lot. It has great suction power and does a very nice job. The tubes come apart nicely for changing the different heads and it's nice and quiet. It's also lightweight and easy to handle. And hooray! No more bags to buy.br /On the not-so-convenient side: It has no way to set the height control of the brush. The manual just says that it automatically adjusts to the different rug heights. But, I find that it's too strong on my rugs and pulls the vacuum head forward with quite a bit of strength, as if it was on auto-pilot. When I try to vacuum the 6-foot strip rug it pulls it up so fiercely that I need two people: one to stand on the other side and hold it down and one to vacuum. This is with the suction set at the lowest setting. Ordinarily, I would adjust the roller height to be more gentle.br /Because of it's light weight, the different attachments do not store in the main vacuum. So when you want to change to the crevice tool, you have to find it wherever you have it stored. |

| I love this vacuum cleaner. I have two Huskies that shed continiously and this vacuum cleaner makes short work of all the hair. No smell left lingering because of the hepa filter and best of all NO BAG to replace. Be careful of the cord connected on the power head. Mine shorted out and burned the carpet. 1 week later, the on/off button on the handle quit working. I'm glad these things decided to go out before the 1 year warranty was up, otherwise I would be out $140.00. After warranty, a different machine. |

This is a great vacuum for the money. I would highly recommend it.
If you have a golden retriever dog - then just know this in advance....... It's not meant for dogs with a lot of hair. It just means you have to clean the masses of hair which wraps itself around the filter after each room you vaccum. Anyone with a Golden knows how much hair they spread. It can get frustrating. Of course, her hair used to fill up my expensive Electrolux bags really quickly too which cost money.
The worst thing, however, is carpet cleaner. You know that sprinkly, smelly stuff you shake onto carpets to get them to smell nice or clean them. Well, those fine particles get into the filter and you have to spend quite a bit of time using a little brush to get them out of your filter. I would not recommend using this vacuum with those types of carpet cleaners. Their instruction book also cautions on this.
Otherwise, this vacuum is wonderful for the money. It doesn't glide over carpets like an electrolux because of the suction but it works great.

After much reading and a bit of frustration in not finding one I could actually get my hands on at a local outlet, I went ahead and ordered the Hoover S3765. Having had an old Rainbow and Meile in a 'previous life', I wanted something that could be a real work horse...carpeted stairs, carpeting, area rugs, tile floors, furniture, and tough-to-reach spots. I've now been using this vacuum for about a month and am, for the most part, extremely satisfied...
PROs: It has great suction, the controls in the handle for suction, the power head, and to turn it off are great. It's a good size, and dealing with the dust cup and filters isn't really all that bad. The telescoping wand is fantastic (I can vacuum all under our king bed from one side). The small suction-powered power head works great on the stairs.
CONs: There is no swivel for the hose on either the power head or the handle which is just a bit inconvenient at times. I haven't had a canister in some time so it seems somewhat cumbersome with the hose - BUT PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE. While the dust cup is easy to empty, it doesn't hold much - with 2 dogs, I usually empty it a few times (not a bad idea anyway, as I think it helps to keep the odor down.) Lastly, there is no height adjustment for the big power head so the brush slows down alot on a couple of my area rugs - I end up pulling the head toward me rather than pushing and pull in...but it works great on my normal carpeting.
If I wanted to spend another $200 or so, I'm sure I could have gotten everything I wanted. Nevertheless, after everything is said and done, this vacuum is a great value. If I had it to do all over, I would buy it again. |

Having used my Hoover Sweeper over a month, I am more amd more pleased with its performance and ease of use. I bought it to use on hardwood floors , upholstery and carpeted stairs; however, I am using it on carpet and area rugs as well. It has exceptional suction which is so helpful because we are home remoldeling and plaster and saw dust are every where. The dust and dirt are thrown away after each use. I wash the plastic receptacle and dry it. This may be an extra step that busy working moms may find disagreeable, but I like to do it because I know that I'll always start out with a clean , fresh vacuum cleaner. |
