Hoover - Air Bagless Cordless 2-in-1 Handheld/Stick Vacuum - Gray

Bought this as a replacement for a mid-high level Electrolux Ergorapido (battery wouldn't hold charge after 5 years). The Electrolux had adequate suction, looked good, and similar 2 in 1 function (stick or handheld vac). The Hoover performs similarly to our old Electrolux, with some pros and cons of each below: Hoover Pros - bigger dust cup, can vacuum with the brush rollers on (carpet) or off (hardwoods, etc.) which means not having to remove dog hair out of the brush as frequently, good suction (maybe a little better than the Electro), replaceable battery, very maneuverable cleaning head. Electrox Pros - better looking, better construction (feels more solid than the hoover) Reviews that criticize the Hoover's design for getting clogged have a little merit as pet hair does quickly stick to the filter when using. However, suction is still fine for a quick job despite this. You will definitely want to empty the cup after each use if you have a long haired pet like I do, but that goes for the Electrolux as well. There are certainly parts of the Hoover that feel cheaply made and I'm more worried about long term durability than I was with the Electrolux. Time will tell on that.

I only had this for a little over couple of weeks. It's definitely not for a deep clean but more for a quick clean up. And for its purpose, it does its job. It's convenient and lightweight so it's easy to handle. I think the multi cyclone is fairly effective but the overall size of the bin capacity is small so expect to empty it often. Also, like any other cyclone designs, the mesh in the bin will get caked on with dust so that's a lil inconvenient. Overall, I'm satisfied with the product.

This Vacuum Cleaner is handy and useful either on carpet, Sofa and also it come handy to vaccum outdoor like cars or picnic spots. One vaccum serves multi purpose and battery backup is sufficient for 1 use for detailed vaccum at home and it has to be charged again. Only improvement what I think of is more sucking power will definitely makes this vaccum the top list.

My only complaint with this vac is that the battery life. It seems like every time I go to use it, the battery is near dead. Definitely more a function of the previous user forgetting to put the battery on the charger than anything else. It would be nice if the charging unit was integrated with the vac so the battery didn't have to be removed to charge.

We went into our local Best Buy expecting to buy another cordless vac that had been favorably reviewed online, but when we saw this one and took the display model for a spin, it compared favorably to the one we intended to buy--lighter, more maneuverable. Unfortunately, we couldn't test the actual vacuuming power because the display models weren't charged, so this one could be inferior to the one we planned to buy. But it seems sufficient for the spot-cleaning purpose we bought it for. It won't replace the more powerful full-sized vacuum cleaners, but for the usual small spills, it's sufficient and much easier than lugging the beast vac out of the closet, crawling under table to plug it in, etc. It's undoubtedly too soon to tell how well it, especially the battery, will last.

If you live in a big house I wouldn’t buy this simply because the battery won’t last you very long and it gets really annoying not to know how a lot much battery your battery has . Overall the cleaning it’s really good it performs grade again the only thing I don’t like about it is the fact that it doesn’t tell you how much battery there is left

Was not expecting a great vacuum, just something quicker than sweeping every day and not having to bend over with a dust pan or worry about cords. The charge is adequate to do whole house on a charge and it does a fantastic job.

Good run time with 20v Li-On battery, I would not even consider anything less than an 18v or 20v battery for this type of vacuum. Separate switch positions for bare floor or carpet, Hand-held feature another plus, along with the light. Also, the stand-on-its-own feature is nice. The frequent cleaning/washing of the filter may be an inconvenience for some users.
