After warranty expired the filter rotating mechanism broke due dirt getting in the gears. Repair cost is $150. Also, the so called "powered" brush for use on the upholstery wand is "powered" by suction through the hose. It is worthless for cleaning crumbs or pet hair, as the slightest pressure on the brush causes it to stop spinning. from Amazon.com Dumping it is definitely a two-handed operation, and since I also have to hold open the lid on the dumpster while emptying the cup, that's a big PITB. When I pull the cup out, it always spills a little bit. It's not a bunch, but then I feel the need to vacuum up the little spill after I dump the cup. I've started taking the whole vacuum outside when I empty it! from Amazon.com If all of the other reviews don't convince you not to buy this product maybe this one will. I owned my Hoover for 7 months before I experienced the infamous self-cleaning HEPA filter malfunction. This must be a record based on the other reviews. from Amazon.com Wow, all this for 239.00 at CC. There should be a class action lawsuit to give the owners of this piece of junk something. I will never buy another Hoover product again. How in God's name could you give this 5 stars. from Amazon.com The HEPA "Self cleaning" filter isn't. It will load up and jam, and then the drive mechanism gears will strip. This happened in less than 15 months. from Amazon.com I really wanted to like this vacuum. It looks great, has incredible suction and all the great features really work well. However, I took it back after using it twice and now own an Eureka Boss. Like most of the other reviewers, I immediately found that large amounts of dust fell down from the Hepa filter when emptying the plastic container which catches all the dirt, hair and dust and when I restarted the machine, this dust blew all over the room. from Amazon.com The suction power on the handle is absolutely non existant. The filter gets clogged with the dirt that does not make it to the bottom of the dirt cup. I have never gotten to the point where the dirt cup was full, before I had to stop to unclog the filter. Then there is the HEPA filter. from Amazon.com I also had to take my windtunnel 2 in for repair with a clogged filter as the spring inside had broken soon after purchase and I waited FOUR weeks to get it back. When calling in to customers service the second time a man who spoke to me was not understanding at all and was argumentative when I told him that the filter still clogs and the filth and mess I get from emptying the thing is so disgusting that the hole unit has to be cleaned before putting it all back together again. The emptying has to be done out in the garden or the house has to be cleaned all over again with the dirt that falls out on to the unit everywhere and fine dust floats in the air. from Amazon.com I started having problems with the Hoover U8351-900 Windtunnel from the start. THe self-cleaning,(yea, right, what a joke) Hepa filler clogs, and then loses suction. from Amazon.com Ok, I haven't used every vacuum ever made, so I can't make that claim. But this one has to be close. from Amazon.com
