If your have a small apartment with carpet only, this is great for the price. The suction is terrific. But that's about it. I mainly bought this for my second floor bedrooms with low pile carpet, baseboard and edge vacuuming along with bathroom floor vacuuming. The cord is short so look forward to lots of outlet plugging and unplugging. You are doing all the work pushing and pulling the unit: if you have any back issues, forget this unit. It's heavy. The handle is big for my small hands, fine for men. The attachments are worthless;it's way too short to do anything with it. You have to hold onto the main body while you use the attachment or else it will fall over, many time on your foot or leg. Ouch. You have to pick up the body if you want to reach the counter to use the attachments. Vacuuming a small bathroom with tile floors was frustrating as there is no adequate floor attachment. The roller is going the whole time you use the attachment: this will wear out the "hairs" and the belt. Oh, did I mention that it's very loud? Louder than my other Hoover vacuum. The whole experience was very exasperating and tiring. I am returning this...don't know what I will get instead. I give it two stars because I got what I paid for ($52.00 on sale). For this price you get great, aggressive suction, and that's it. I guess I need to spend more money for a decent vacuum.

I wish I had listened to the reviewer who said the vacuum did poorly on bare floors. This vacuum has been completly useless to us becasue most of floors are hard wood. It performed much better on our Persian style rug, but sucked up our heavy throw rugs (whereas our previous vacuum did not).
I wish we could return it.

you will be hard-pressed to get me to clean my house, let alone enjoy it. that said, i LOVE this thing! as a sane person you think, this is vacuum cleaner, how are earth could a vacuum cleaner elicit a declaration that effusive? this girl must be one of those crazy clorox-and-rubber-gloves-are-my-best-friends freaks. not so. my family, roommates and boyfriend have all gone to great lengths to coax, plead or trick me into cleaning. but there is something strangely satisfying about vacuuming my carpet with this thing because you see this clear line of demarcation of where you've been and where you haven't. it reminds me of that odd satisfaction i got as a kid when my mother had me polish the silver when half of it was super tarnished and the other half was super shiny. i have never had a vacuum with this much suction. the first time i vacuumed with this thing (RIGHT after vacuuming with my old, now retired vacuum cleaner), i filled an ENTIRE bag (and these suckers are pretty large, too). the bags are pretty cheap, too, and i can normally find a two-pack at my local Dollar Tree. now if only someone could trick me into enjoying cleaning the bathroom....
 Expensive Repairs April 16, 2006

This is a pretty powerful little vacuum; however, the least little thing breaks it down and then I have to pay money for repairs. If something gets caught, it stops working and I have to call the repair man.

First I was impress on how fast the vacuum arrive after I placed the order. I had a Hoover vacuum for 12 years and it finally broke down. I bought this Hoover vaccum and was very happy with the pickup suction that it has and the additiional tools which makes vacuum easier on both my carpet and bare tile floor. It has a light which makes it easier to see the carpet down a dark hallway. I am very pleased that Amazon offered vacuums and the fast shipment and I know I will having my new Hoover vacuum for another 12 years.
