3.0 out of 5 stars Average Vacuum - Better choices out there!, December 20, 2003

This review is from: Hoover U5162-900 Fold Away Bagless Upright Vacuum with Fold Down Handle (Kitchen)

I had one of these vacuums for a very short time. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats, along with various other small critters (ferrets, rats, hedgehogs) and 2 horses. So my house tends to get pretty dusty and pet hair is all over the place. This vacuum might work better for someone who is a little easier on their carpet than I am.

Mine constantly clogged with pet hair and human hair (up until 7 months ago I had very long hair), and it would lose suction easily. I found myself having to clean out the roller ALL the time, and it became more work to clean out the vacuum all the time than it was to vacuum the house!

I invested in a Dyson vacuum, and I haven't looked back since. While the price is much higher, the Dyson is MUCH better for pet owners! This hoover would be decent maybe for a petless person living in an apartment, or someone with no kids. Anyone who has to use their vacuum a LOT will probably not be happy, but if you're looking for a fairly inexpensive bagless vacuum, this is a decent choice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't suck after only a few uses, November 22, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Hoover U5162-900 Fold Away Bagless Upright Vacuum with Fold Down Handle (Kitchen)

Purchased the vacuum in June and used it a total of 5 times. Then it stopped sucking anything up. Am currently in the process of trying to get it repaired but there are very few repair places around.

If I had known what this vacuum was like I would not have purchased it. Buy a nicer vacuum; I am regretting not paying a little bit more for a much better quality vacuum. I used to be a big Hoover fan but I will never buy another Hoover vacuum again.

When it arrived, I took it out of the box, pulled up the handle, plugged it in, and it loves to vacuum. It is not a noisy machine. What I appreciate about it, is the fact it is bagless. It has the filter, and just a nice machine. The only little draw back is, the placement of the hose into the body. There is a cap that swings in, than you place the hose into its cavity. If that is the only draw back, that is very very minor. The price is right, and just perfect.
