This vacuum broke within several months after I bought it this spring--the on switch would not turn off. The manager of the store where I bought it said they had returned this model, as well. I will not buy Hoover vacuums again. This is the third Hoover vacuum cleaner that has been poorly made that I've bought in the past five years. from Amazon.com I thought it would have the light that tells me when the carpet is cleaned. My last windtunnel did, and I miss that. Other than that, it is working great. from Amazon.com We purchased the windtunnel vacuum when we decided that the acres of carpet in our basement family room needed more attention. We had the powerdrive function in a Hoover vacuum we received as a wedding gift 30 years ago and decided to persue that again. from Amazon.com This vacuum picks up everything. It's as good as the torpedo vacuums we have had previously. from Amazon.com My family has purchased Windtunnels for years and they have always proved to be a good vacuum overall. They are not the most reliable, but most problems are typical of an upright. from Amazon.com What happens is as soon as one belt goes bad, it causes the other to go bad. You will be having to replace the belts, at least once a year, if not more. One other problem is when customers pick up the machine by the handle (lets face it, this is the most convienent way to carry) it causes the self propelled actuator arm to break. There's too much tension on the arm, and it will rip the screw right out of the plastic actuator arm. from Amazon.com I'm very pleased with this purchase. I bought it for a friend who has a labrador that stays in the house, and this keeps all the doghair in the bag where it belongs. from Amazon.com I purchased it after reading consumer reviews. However, after two weeks, the plastic switch that changes the vacuum from carpet to bare floor broke--this was fixed for free at the vacuum cleaner shop where I purchased the item. Now that I am no longer under warranty, the on/off switch does not work and neither does the self-propelled switch. An employee at the vacuum cleaner shop says that happens frequently because the switches are plasitc and it's between 40 and 50 dollars to get it fixed. from Amazon.com We were very much delighted to receive the Hoover and it was a replacement for a older self propelled Hoover that was still in good working order. Really liked the close to wall on both sides as well as the additional width of the area it covers since our home has quite a bit of area to cover and we do have a dog that is a house dog, (Oh his name is, Dee-O-Gee too!) The hepa filtration works great with very adequate power to do our cleaning needs. from Amazon.com I had a Hoover for twenty years prior to this purchase, which is why I decided to buy another. This model has great suction, so much so that scatter rugs are all but devoured and the smell of burning motor belts drifts through the air. from Amazon.com
