Seems to do its job,
Pros:
– Good suction power.
– Long self retracting cord.
– Transparent dust canister makes it easy to see when it’s full.
– Motorized brush head.
– Easily detachable dust canister. Be sure to empty outside to minimize returning dust into the home.
– Pivot head on vacuum head works well allowing you to orient in almost any direction.
– Neck is adjustable in length.
– Weight is mostly in the base unit and not the head to facilitate maneuverability, though the head has some weight due to the electric motor that drives the brushes.
– Most of the switches can be operated with your foot. The only switch that is hand controlled is the switch for the spinning brush head.
Cons:
– Base unit is still pretty heavy for a vacuum and it is rather wide so you can’t sit it on a stair when you are trying to vacuum a flight of steps.

|Lots of pros and a few cons,
Overall, there is a lot to like in this vacuum cleaner, especially for the price. The pros outweigh the cons, and there are a few features that make it especially enjoyable to use.
PROS:
THE CORD REEL. I just love vacuums with a cord reel. All the vacuums seemed to have these when I was a kid, and now that most vacuums no longer have one, I find it very annoying to have to wind the cord up myself. I have a Dyson Animal vacuum with a 35′ cord, and the way it was designed, you can’t just unwind the amount of cord you need and leave the rest wound up; you always have to take the entire 35′ of cord off the hooks it is wound on, or you can’t use the wand, because the cord holds the wand down. Such a poor design. On this Hoover vacuum, there is a cord reel with an easy-to-reach button on the canister. Like with any cord reel, you have to have the cord fairly straight when you press the button. You can’t have a big knot of cord sitting there and expect the cord reel to untangle it for you; it won’t. But when you have an aching back and you’re tired from housework, you will be delighted to press that button and watch the cord put itself away. So much more convenient than having to rewind the cord by hand. This is an example of a machine doing what it’s supposed to–the time-wasting stuff you don’t want to do.
CORD LENGTH. This vacuum has a 25′ cord, which is plenty of cord, and thanks to the cord reel, you can pull out just the amount of it you need at any one time. You don’t have to have the whole 25 feet coiling up on your floor if you don’t need it all, like in a small room or a bathroom. If I’m going to be vacuuming several rooms, I just go ahead and pull it all the way out to the end mark, and I let the cord reel rewind it when I’m all done. You may be surprised at what a great advantage it is to have your cord under control. Of course, this also means that if you forget that you’ve only pulled out 10′ of cord and you start to walk into another room with the vac, the cord will pull out of the socket. You do need to pull the cord out farther if you realize you’re going to need more cord. I’m happy to pay that price in exchange for having the advantages of a cord reel. I love it!
MANEUVERABILITY. The power head on this vacuum swivels in multiple directions. Unlike all the other vacuums I’ve ever had, you can really maneuver it around corners and under furniture very easily. I love that, because there are spots I’ve never been able to reach that I can now vacuum without moving the furniture around.
THIN PROFILE. The power head is so thin that it fits underneath my refrigerator door; none of my other vacuums ever have. This makes it so much more useful for getting under furniture.
WEIGHT. If you pick up this entire vacuum, you’ll feel it, but unlike with an upright vac, you do not have to push around that whole weight with every pass. Instead, you have only the fairly lightweight hose and power head to deal with; the canister–the weightiest component–trails along behind you. This makes it less exhausting to vacuum.
ADJUSTABLE HEIGHT. If you’ve ever had a vacuum that was too tall or too short for your own height, you know what a backbreaker it can be. This one lets you pull it higher until it is the height you want. This makes it a perfect fit and therefore very comfortable to use. Now that I’ve done that, I realize I don’t know how to get it back down to a smaller height, so you might want to be careful not to pull it too far unless you figure that out first.
LOWER NOISE LEVEL. I’ve had vacuums that were really loud. My Dyson is pretty loud. This vacuum is not. The lower noise level means that it’s less annoying to use, and if the phone or the doorbell rings, I won’t miss it.
CONS:
THE MANUAL. The manual is the worst thing about this vacuum. It’s incomplete and inadequate. It simply does not have enough information to help you use the vacuum. It does not even tell you how to put the vacuum together; you have to look at the picture on the manual to figure that out. When I first put mine together and tried to use it, I had the exact same problem that the previous reviewer had. The brush roll would not turn on. I thought, “Oh, no. They must all be like that.” I looked at the troubleshooting section in the manual, and nothing in there helped. Finally, I just started exploring the vacuum and found that there is a button you have to turn on to turn the brush roll on, and then it came right on. The manual should explain this. You should not have to find it by experimentation. I would say that this is the worst manual I’ve ever seen, but it isn’t; the one for the Dyson was actually worse.
SUCTION. The suction on this vacuum is not bad, but it isn’t what I’m used to. Really, one of the few places the Dyson (costing hundreds more than this vacuum) outshines the…
