A replacement for another Hoover vacuum. This is very similar, cleans well and has a retractable electrical cord, very convenient feature. The tools are easy to use. I miss the self propelled feature of my previous vacuum. For those with back problems, this vacuum maybe a little hard to maneuver due to its weight.

Arrived timely. Would definitely deal with again. The vacuum was very easy to put together. Suction power is very good. Can’t believe how much dog hair was in the carpet.

Amazing suction power on this vacuum! I wanted a retractable cord, bag less, HEPA vacuum. This is what I chose. As soon as I used it, I knew I chose right. In one pass, it picked up more than my old vacuum ever did. Hoover is a trusted name in vacuums and I should have gone back to Hoover long ago. I saw in the reviews that the bottom dirt hatch has a less than durable hinge. I’ll just have to be careful of it. If it breaks, Hoover can fix it on my warranty. The rest of the vacuum looks good and operates great. I am so happy I don’t have to wind up the cord by hand anymore. Awesome price for this vacuum!

He decidido probar con esta aspiradora (la primera que he usado) y me ha parecido de muy buena calidad, de una potencia bastante decente y de una facilidad extraordinaria. Mi espacio es pequeño y no tengo animales, por lo que realmente el uso que le doy es muy gentil y moderado pero después de varios meses sigue siendo igual de funcional que la primera vez, se calienta un poco después de un rato pero nada súper alarmante. Tiene varios accesorios que me facilitan la limpieza y recoge muy bien hasta el cabello que se me cae, es fácil desechar lo que acumula al finalizar cada limpieza.

I have had this new vacuum for over a month now and am still impressed by it.
I needed to replace my almost 10 year old Hoover UH70825 because small plastic parts started breaking and there is only so much you can fix with ducktape! I did a fair amount of research and landed on this one again. The PRICE is AWESOME! Kept all the things I liked about the old vac, and fixed most of the faults. Excellent suction on all floor types. Excellent performance on cat hair, and litter. You have to love the cord rewind. The hose stretches forever, great for overhead, along with the interesting swivel head brush (new). I am not a fan of the new rubber roller for the pet attachment (it stops too easily on upholstery), but I kept the older brush roller version which I DO LIKE. The carpet brush on/off foot switch is a great addition and the carpet brush turns off when you stand up the handle (the old vac did not have this and I almost ruined an area rug while using the hand tool).
The on/off switch is still a little low on the back of the handle, but then I already was used to that (less than ideal) location.HOOVER WindTunnel 2 Whole House Rewind Bagless Corded Upright Vacuum UH71250
This vac is easy to empty, and clean out. The whole vortex chamber is now extremely easy to take apart and clean out. I clean it out every time I use it because it is so easy. The times I cleaned out my older vac I had to get out my tools and electric screw driver.
A WORD OF WARNING: The dust chamber lid (on the bottom) has a plastic hinge! Be careful when handling the lid, it is easy to break the pins and sockets. The older vac had exactly the same hinge, which I broke the first year I had it – but I used it for years with a jerry-rigged ducktape hinge. It was not a deal breaker for me, just be aware and careful.
Overall this is still and excellent choice, especially for under $100!

This is now my 5th vacuum since we started trying to find a replacement for my old “Sears Canister” with a steel hose self propelling model, that was so blooming heavy my poor back required a day off after using. I am not joking that model weight 27lbs that had to be dragged behind. Not a good idea if you have serious back pain.
What we tried:
I tried battery powered vacuums that were great on weight, horrible on battery life that needed 18 hour charge to clean half of a 1250 square foot house (the charge only lasted 20 minutes). It went back.
I tried small cup vacuums that boasted easy cleaning, but literally having to dump the cup, which would drop all over the place when trying to empty requiring YOU to lift it out, carry it over to the garbage, etc. You get it. Messy and cleaned ONE room per dump. That went back.
We have laminate flooring which is difficult at best and close to impossible to keep clean. It can’t use beaters and even the wheels can cause floor scuffing. Don’t get on me about getting the floors actually “clean” since you can’t use water on them. If we had known, well hindsight is more 20/20 then prior. And when you have throw rugs down, even room size rugs are problematic because NO BEATERS can hit the flooring but required on the rugs to remove dirt, and my husband has severe eczema that runs in his family; he literally “snows” with skin.
Outside of a Rainbow, I have yet had a found a vacuum that I truly Love. And if we could have gotten a Rainbow (again, problematic due to laminate flooring, any wet equals ruin) we would have even with the cost factor. However, weight again is a huge consideration and again, having to drag a canister behind, isn’t what was needed.
This vacuum (The Wind Tunnel) has met our severe needs!
Why it works:
–It can clean up little piddly dust off of laminate flooring which is difficult to do. This floor creates static cling which makes everything stick. And it also can pick up bigger chunks without sending them across the floor (another vacuum flaw we encountered at a vacuum store). It cleans edges well which most uprights don’t do that well, but this one works well. And if you need your moulding clean, there’s an attachment that does it well.
–It has an “off” beater switch that you can turn off /on with your foot.
The attachments actually work and make sense for your needs. They aren’t cheaply built and the bristles on them also are strong enough to use on upholsteries to actually move and pick up hair and dust. And remember me saying about Moulding? It can “do an excellent job” on them as well.
–The self winding cord is amazing. It’s so much better than the ratcheted wind which sometimes work, but mostly what it did is crazily wind the cord and hit your feet, your legs in the process. The cord is more than sufficient for its length at 25 feet. It has a cord holder at the top of the back of the machine. It’s a easy fix to a lifelong problem of having to wrap the cord around your neck or shoulders in the process of vacuuming! And not dragging, having to move the cord all over the place in order to vacuum helps when you have body pain and energy requirements.
I emptied the barrel after 2 full vacuums. It was needed. It was one handed, after I removed the container. It was easy to do, and the no touch feature was okay. You still have to pull out any heavy pieces like hair, etc with your hands, but that’s okay when you don’t have to dump the whole thing trailing dust as you’re doing it.
What is missing:
It does NOT have a light. It would have been nice for Hoover to at least include a LED light on the machine for dark areas. It’s a personal pet peeve that many don’t include lights, because it is a weakness.
Outside of that point (and it’s not that lightweight), it is less stress on the back and less hard to wrestle with the vacuum to use, making it ideal for us. I hope this review helps others making up their mind. The brands we have had tried included both Bissell, and Shark. The decision to buy this one wasn’t because of its great price (which it is), but because it could do what we needed it to do which is vacuum the floor with less hassle and pain.
