    My wife really loves this vacuum. We had the earlier version with was super light but did a great job. We upgraded to this model after 4 years and it seem to be very dependable as the last one.

    I have three cats, a teenaged boy and a 50/50 mix of carpet/hard floors. I needed an affordable vac that could do it all. This one handles everything from the little pieces of cat litter that always seem to get out of the litter box to "OMG what was under his bed? It would be nice if the canister were bigger but maybe we are just that messy. Love the steering. Took a minute to get used to but its great. I do recommend you take the time to read the information that comes with the vac. You can learn alot.

    The swivel feature makes it much easier to vacuum than with our old one. Cleans carpet and hardwood floors very nicely. It's also relatively lightweight and includes a turbo tool for cleaning soft surfaces other than floors. It would be nice if there was a place to store the turbo tool on the vacuum. Overall, a great value.

    Great lightweight and powerful vac. Easy to menuever and use. Emptying the container is easy also. Only fault is it has so much suction, it will clamp down on hard floor like a suction cup. You have to keep at the right angle to keep from this happening. Also the hose had a permanent kink in the hose right out of the box. Hose did not leak so I did not return. I was a little shortchanged from a brand new product having this flaw. Even so I do love this vac and would recommend to anyone, because it cleans great.

    I love my new vacuum. I gets everything in the carpet and I like how you can turn on and off the spin brush. The suction from the pull is amazing and makes me feel so much better about cleaning my vacuum. After I bought it I couldn't wait to get home and try it out and I was not disappointed. I would recommend this to everyone who is looking for a new vacuum. I have enjoyed everything about it.

    Hoover wind tunnel 3 has an amazing suction power. Starting from the bare floor up to the heavy carpet the vacuum provides different suction power operated through a knob. When cleaning a rug it tends to clean it precisely without twining it. The hand tools are easy to access and the length is good enough to reach higher grounds.One feature that i did not like is that it didn't have a retractable cord thus it tends to get on the way sometimes. Overall it has a sleek design that pivots around tight areas. On the long run I would definitely recommend this product.

    Good performance but a couple of issues

    We found the ability to pick up dirt on the wall edge to be very good if not excellent. However, as other reviewers have noted, the automatic depth detector gets too close to our vinyl floor and sticks the vacuum to the floor. Only fix is to move the Floor/hose dial toward the hose position to block some of the suction and break the seal. Without that dial, there would be no using this vacuum on vinyl floors. On the other hand, that floor/hose dial is an annoyance. Most vacuums we have had previously switch to hose mode as soon as you connect a hose. You don't have to remember to switch positions on a dial. Also, this is our second unit. After only two weeks, the first unit failed to turn on. Best Buy exchanged it with no issues. We considered changing to a different vacuum, but decided that the annoyance for having to switch the dial didn't outweigh the good performance.

    This vacuum works great for my all tile floor home. Very strong Vacuum in my opinion. I have area rugs and the Vacuum sometimes picks them up and gets stuck to them but I can live with that since they are after all only small area rugs. No heating issues as other have mentioned but then again my whole house has hard tile so it doesn't force the vacuum much when compared to carpet. Love how easy to maneuver it is. Just twist the handle and it'll turn in the that direction almost effortlessly.

    Replaced a Dyson that I was never that thrilled with. This machine has as much suction at less than half the price. The maneuverability is better also. I like the length on the suction hose for doing stairs. The only drawback may be that the stair attachment loses power.

      Thank you for the thoughtful review. We're so happy that you like your Air Pro.

      The stair attachment should have very strong suction. If you're not feeling strong suction from the hose, the air valve may not be clicked quite all the way. We put together a quick video to show you:

    I had just threw out my old vacuum and just happened to be in Best Buy and saw this on sale. I checked it out, took down the display and rolled it around the floor. It was light to carry and easy to use. The price was great and compared to Dyson, seemed like a comparable alternative. When I got it home, put it together and used it, I couldn't believe the power it had. I had just used my old vacuum and this got up so much dirt, it was astounding. The hose is long enough to get up in the ceiling and has great reach. The transition from carpet to hardwood is easy with the turn of a switch. I've been very pleased with this purchase.

    This vacuum works great on dog hair, dirt, or anything my husband , kids and dogs bring in. It doesn't matter if its hard floor or carpet. You can turn easy and get under furniture. It is simple to empty the canister,and it is the quietest vacuumed have ever had. I actually love this vacuum.

    The highlights regarding this product are around style and performance. It is super lightweight compared to other similar priced vacuums. It has a sharp turning radius and narrow base. It is very compact and holds a few attachments. It has a lot of suction power for the size. It has the performance and style of high end models for a reasonable price.

    I use to have an overly expensive vacuum that I really liked till it broke and it was going to cost me $500 to replace. I bought this one and was pleasantly surprised! It is light weight but is very powerful. Turns great, long hose and extra attachments. Very pleased with this purchase overall. Only con I have is that I had to unscrew 8 screws to detangle the roller maybe there is a better way that I haven't found yet.

    Vacuum is powerful & light weight. Glad I purchased the geek squad warranty though. Within 1 week a plastic piece on front of canister cracked. Vacuum still worked great but emptying was,problematic. Fortunately with the Geek Squad warranty they replaced no questions with a new vacuum. Going on one month now & it's still great.

    This llittle vaccuum is so easy to manuever around and under things and the suction is good too. I really like that it is an all in one because the attachments are pretty easy to put on and take off. Very easy to clean also. The swivel head makes vaccuuming a breeze.

    I bought this to replace an older, bagged version of the Windtunnel. I'm really not that impressed. While the suction is good, the roller bar isn't wide enough to provide enough stability. It tips over easily. Also, there isn't on board storage for the included tool. This also isn't a true self- propelled vacuum. It's light enough to maneuver easily, buy you're doing the pushing. There's also no foot release - you have to put your foot on part of the roller bar to release it. This isn't exactly what I was looking for and if I had had more time, I'm not sure this is what I would have purchased. It does what it's supposed to do and I'm trying to overlook the rest.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
