 Hoover WindTunnel Bagless Canister Vacuum July 6, 2008
I purchased this vacuum to use on laminate, tile and cement floors so I have not been using the carpet attachment much. I like this vacuum. I like the convenient telescoping wand, and the fact that you have 3 different levels of suction that you can choose among. The one thing I miss is a long bristled round attachment for dusting ledges, etc. The shorter bristled combo furniture attachment just doesn't work as well, in my opinion. The retracting cord is nice, the vacuum is not too heavy to carry from place to place, self storage of the smaller attachments is convenient, and being able to clean the filters is a plus. I would not hesitate to recommend this vacuum for persons using it on hard floors, I cannot speak to its performance on carpet.
 No more bagless for me! July 5, 2008

I bought this vacuum cleaner more than a year ago and here are my pros:
- does a great job getting up the dirt
- is lightweight and easy to carry from room to room
- the hose wraps itself up
- the controls are easy to access and use
- the head is flat enough to slip under low chairs
- and all the other stuff people have said is great about it.
My one con is that it is bagless. So, as someone else said, it makes quite a dust bowl when it gets dumped, and even worse, the filter is a bear to clean. It takes me a good 30 minutes just to get most (not all) of the dust and cat hair out of the filter after one use (and, yes, I do vacuum regularly). If I decide to wash the filter then I can not use the vacuum for at least a day waiting for the filter to dry out. The filter is not something you can replace cheaply like a bag would be so you have to either clean it or else let it get REALLY clogged up with dust. I am very sorry I bought the bagless model and I will never do so again.
This vacuum sucks! :-) July 3, 2008
I'm very much a canister-type vacuum person, having used both that and uprights before. I've had this model for a month now. It works extremely well in my 4-pet house. The hard floor/rug attachment is easy on/easy off and the extending handle helps greatly for cleaning reach, my height, and not having to bend over to clean my floors. The dirt canister is a bit small but with 4 pets and a large house, nearly anything would be. I love the touch controls at my fingertips -- again, helps with the bending. It also runs fairly quiet for a vacuum.
I haven't used many of the accessories; the stair attachment seems to work just fine. It's bit awkward trying to manage both vacuum and angle the brush to the right degree, and I hope more practice will let me figure out the optimum way to use it.
Best Vacuum I've owned! July 1, 2008
I love this vacuum! It has great features, is easy to clean, and does a great job! We have a cat who, of course, sheds like crazy and this does a good job of picking up the fur and everything else. Great suction power on the tools. They include this little filter cleaning brush which is extremely handy. This is lightweight and has a strong handle to lift the canister by. The long retractable cord is wonderful, no more winding and winding...you get the idea. The bagless container is very easy to take out dump and put back in. It's a little noisy but it's quieter than others I've owned so it isn't bad...doesn't even scare the cat. The head is flat enough to easily fit under furniture. It was very easy to put together. We've had it for a few months and really, really love it. It's a great buy!
 A very disappointing piece of equipment July 1, 2008

Impossible to clean filter every time you use the bloody vaccum, to empty the canister creats another dust bowl not a good thing.
