Product Description

Amazon.com Review
Strong suction and surprisingly quiet operation make this heavy-duty steel vacuum the ideal tool for keeping garages and workshops spick and span. Powered by a 10 amp motor, robust airflow inside the tank keeps dirt from adhering to the Airwash self-cleaning filter. Combined with Hoover’s unique E-Z Empty design, this means no messy cleanup, and no bags and filters to buy or replace. The rugged, crush-proof hose is 30-feet long, easily reaching across a garage and into cars, while the wall-mount tank stays in place. No special exhaust vents or electrical lines are needed for this vacuum, so installation is a snap: simply mount on the included storage bracket and start cleaning. The six-foot power cord is designed to stay safely plugged in, and the five-gallon tank features enough capacity to clean up the toughest mess. A set of seven attachments serves every possible cleaning need, including two extension wands, two crevice tools, a floor nozzle, upholstery nozzle for car seats, and dusting brush for dashboards and dusty workbenches. A canvas organizer hangs from the hose storage rack to keep attachments neatly stored away. --Mary Park

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Garage Vacuum, July 7, 2006

By	IndyDon (Indiana) - See all my reviews

I had never heard of this product until I saw it on sale for half-price at a major retail chain. I decided to buy it after doing some quick online searching for info. I have had it for less than a week but I am utterly giddy with the purchase. It only took about 10 minutes to install but I had to use my own screws as Hoover provides four screws and anchors for drywall. Mine is mounted on a stud that is in back of pegboard and I needed longer screws because of the way I mounted it. I would have preferred to have the vacuum mounted elsewhere but the 5 foot cord leaves few options.

I then used the vacuum to clean the garage and two cars. My garage was dirty with small debris, leaves, dirt, cottonwood seeds, sand, some chipmunk droppings, and scattered other small items. The vacuum has several attachments and I employed about half of them to help with cleaning different parts of the garage. I did not have to move items since the vacuum provides enough suction and small attachments to get under shelving, workbenches and standing cabinets. Wow, this thing is great. I used it to remove spider webs from the ceiling and it was no problem with the long hose and long set of attachments. There is NO WAY I can do that with a typical garage vacuum. It took about an hour to get the garage cleaned and it looked great. I then quickly vacuumed two cars.

The product is really helpful and I know that my garage is going to remain clean going forward. It is so easy to attach the hose to the unit and vacuum up a mess. Suction is excellent and the noise produced by the machine is low. Attachments and the 30' hose round out the great things about the machine. The hose and attachments are easily stored near the vacuum. I did not find an issue with dust being blown out the top of the machine. I assume one has to keep the filter clean to prevent this from happening. The one negative about the vacuum is the 5 foot power cord. Knowing what I do about the vacuum I would recommend that someone pay an electrician to put an outlet in the preferred spot if your current outlet is not suitable.

Update: It has now been a month since I purchased this product and after a number of uses have the following additional comments. It continues to work great and is still worthy of 5-stars. Attaching and then detaching the hose and storing it after use takes about 90 seconds so that is no big deal. My garage is still clean. I have cleaned the filter once. Wow, it was dirty. You have to be careful in removing the filter or dust/dirt will spew everywhere. I would recommend taking the unit off the wall when removing the filter. The filter istelf is pretty nifty and is easy to get out and put back in. The ease in cleaning the garage now just blows me away. This machine is nothing like a typical garage utility vac. It is well worth the money.

3.0 out of 5 stars guv, October 16, 2005

By	Roy Marques - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I like the vacuum but I feel it is underpowered for a garage. When you have a 30 ft hose, additional power should be available. The concept is great, it hangs neatly, and is easy to empty, clean and put back together. I have a woodshop in my garage and it does great on the sawdust, but small pieces are harder to pick up. Extra power would be great.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good vac with a few caveats, August 21, 2005

By	JLG - See all my reviews

My vac arrived quickly but the lower cannister was dented pretty bad on the bottom edge, enough to flake the paint; looks like it was dropped. There was no visible damage to the outside of the box, so maybe Hoover's quality control inspectors could use some improvement. I was pleased it was made in N. America and not you know where and I was able rotate the dent to the backside and it did not affect functionality, so it was not worth the hassle of sending back.

One warning mentioned briefly in the manual: "do not use an extension cord under any circumstances", presumably due to the high current, so make sure you have an outlet close to where you plan to mount it; the cord is not very long.

The unit is easy to mount and does provide good suction. As another buyer pointed out, it does get quite hot on top.

Both the hose wall bracket and the included accessory pouch are hany for storage. Overall, a good buy with free shipping.
