Excellent Cleaning Quality,

This review is from: Hoover U6454-900 Self Propelled Windtunnel Ultra Bagged Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
We had to purchase a vacuum for our plushy soft carpet that our Oreck XL couldn't handle. (Oreck's great for stairs, bare floors.) This summer is bad in terms of fleas and I needed something ASAP! I vacuumed the upstairs yesterday with the Oreck to put down flea powder in the bedrooms. I wanted a bagged vacuum because our experience with bagless is it just puts all the dust and dirt back in the air when you empty it.
After getting it home (bought at Costco) and very easy assembly, I started it right up and tested it out. The self-propelled feature is a must for those thick carpets. Otherwise, you would be burning some serious calories. It was easy to use and very manueverable around furniture, tables, and corners. I carried it upstairs with one arm. (It's heavy but has a handy opening/handle in the back.) I revacuumed the entire upstairs. Here's the best part: I took the bag out to see how much it collected. The bag was almost full from dust, carpet fiber, dirt, and most importantly, FLEAS! I was amazed at how much more this picked up compared to the Oreck. The dirt detection feature is nice but I didn't have time to vacuum my carpet all day to get the green light to stay on. It took 10 or more passes over a certain area before the green light would come on. It does a wonderful job. The tools are easy to get to and easy to use. Just pull the hose out from the floor beater bar. It comes with extension poles and an extension hose. The hand-held motor brush is good for furniture. The vacuum bags are made out of the same material that you would put on an air filtration system. There is no seperate filter to change. (Very nice.) I will still use my Oreck for the stairs since it is much lighter and compact. Very easy to use and very powerful and efficient. We bought from Costco in case we didn't like it and wanted to take it back. Costco has the best return policy.

Love, Love, Love IT!,

This review is from: Hoover U6454-900 Self Propelled Windtunnel Ultra Bagged Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
This is a great vacuum for the price. I have 3 cats and it picks up all their hair and I have 2 kids and it picks up all the crumbs they leave behind. I also love the onboard attachments and use them often since they are located right on the unit.
The only downside is that it's very heavy but it has rollers on the back so you can move around the house fairly easily. For the money, it's a great deal!

Hoover service is terrible,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hoover U6454-900 Self Propelled Windtunnel Ultra Bagged Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
After a few months the vacuum quit working. I've had Hoover vacs for over 40 years and stayed with them for their excellent warranty and service. That's not the case any more, Hoover was bought out. Before you buy, make sure that there is an authorized Hoover service center close by. I live outside in the Tampa, Fl area and the closest service center is 84 miles away. Mailing the vacuum, besides the hassle of packing it, costs about half what the product costs. I'm fairly handy, and I knew the problem was a faulty switch, but Hoover refused to mail the switch. I paid a local vac repair shop $45 to fix it. Forget Hoover, my next vac or cleaner will be Dirt Devil.
