By far this is the WORST vacuum I've ever used! Yes it's very powerful, however you can't use it as it just sticks to the floor. On lino it'll just suck it up off the floor it's stuck to, the head is so badly designed it's impossible to use on carpet as it just skips across it. The only thing it's ok on is wood or laminate flooring.Do not buy this unless your house has completely wooden or laminate flooring. It's rubbish!
Jason painHaving put up with this awful hoover for 2 years, I've decided it's time to write it off as a waste of money and get something else.As the good "testing" reviews will confirm, this cleaner is initially extremely powerful. However, after a handful of uses the suction power drops off a cliff and no amount of cleaning of the various filters has remedied this. In short, I could probably suck up more dust through a didgeridoo myself.Will steer clear of Hoover as a result. May look at the more expensive Miele as previous experience was excellent.
ThomasUtter Crap, good for one hoover before loss of suction due to poor filter system. Avoid
Kindle CustomerI stupidly let a friend choose the hoover as he wanted a new one for the house, so he picked this. It looked okay, although I don't particularly like cylinder, prefer upright.Cheap, flimsy construction, the lid latch was snapped quickly, rendering it even more useless than it already was, poor build, a hassle to clean, have to use gloves, over-complicated mess.Does a poor job and soon loses all power, had a variety of celaners come and use it and none of them liked it, until it soon broke within 6 months, glad to get rid of it. will never buy Hoover again. Money is tight so I bought a Karcher WD2 which honestly was 40 quid cheaper and is much better.
LAmazing product powerful
RacheleLooks nice, but that’s about it. Suction power at the beginning was ok, but after a few weeks stopped working. Even when cleaning all filters and parts after EVERY use the suction power just stopped. Money not worth.
L’ArtThe worst vacuum cleaner I have ever used.The suction is just too weak.It looks ok, and is not too heavy to move about. We thought it would be ideal for stairs or using to hoover out the car but it is not worthwhile
elsie purdonLightweight and powerful. Great value for money.
DaveThis is easily the most powerful vacuum cleaner I have EVER used. Unfortunately, you cannot adjust the power level. It may not be the best choice if you need a machine for the whole family and day to day cleaning. However, if you need a super strong option due to allergies etc, this machine is outstanding and very good value for money. It's significantly stronger than machines 7 times as expensive.
DJ DormannGood suction power,not heavy but space occupying.Becos of rate A in carpet bought though reviews are not that great.So far happy with the product,Hope will last.

Bought this as wedding gift & they same happy with it. Do like hoover make myself as my old vacuum I have for years is same make.
Amazon CustomerSuction power started off good, but after a week of use, the power dropped off significantly. Emptying the bin is very fiddly, requiring you to remove 3 sections of the bin before you can actually empty the dust, by that time, your hands are full of dust. The cleaner is quite heavy.Do not buy.

suction power is ok, it's not very noisy, I don't like the cleaning system, emptying the container because it is always in contact with dust. Not very easy to empty it
mirkoThe best suction power from a Hoover and I've been using mine for a whole year now, i also have a cat and two kids. So good that I'm looking for another before i cant get hold of a replacement. I honestly have no idea why I see lots of bad reviews , may be they aren't emptying the filter traps regularly?
Caroline RobinsonPoor! Only had two months and lost most of its suction.
alisIt does not collect hair or dirt from carpets i gave up using it after 2 attempts and used a dustpan and brush. Suction dreadful
ms sjsmithThis vacum is a waste of money, the tools are almost impossible to remove or put onto the tube. At first suction was great, I cleaned the filters as suggested by Hoover to improve the suction, but it did not work, suction still very poor. I do not recommend this cleaner and I would like to know how Hoover has the cheek to rate it AAAA?
Alice B.No suction, clumsy cleaning, parts break...
