After very light use (maybe 8 to 10 times in a 900 sq.ft. home, it has no suction. I even used duct tape to try to seal it up, but it didn't work. I am ready to throw it away, I can't even say you get what you pay for, because this isn't worth $5 in gas to take it to the dump!

Consumer Reports Rates 33 Out of 33 Tested Vacs March 12, 2005
9 out of 14 found this review helpful

Very Good at "Cleaning Carpets" & "Cleaning Bare Floors." Poor "Cleaning with Tools." Poor "Noise Level" rating. Good "Ease of Use" and "Emissions" ratings. 300 D-o-l-l-a-r Hoover 6439-900 top-rated. Eureka Boss Smart Vac 4870DT was rated best-buy (129 to 139 C-l-a-m-s on Amazon). Hoover Tempo 5146-900 was highest rated cheap vacuum (Ninth overall). 5146 is also noisy but has excellent ratings for "Emissions," "Cleaning Carpets," and "Cleaning Bare Floors." Very Good "Cleaning with Tools" and Good "Ease of Use" ratings. Of course Consumer Reports did top rate JVC DVD players for several months only to move them to the bottom of ratings. Similar flip for paint sold at Lowes.

It doesn't suck, and that sucks! February 26, 2005

Don't bother buying this, not worth ten dollars if you want a clean house. About the only thing it does is make noise and weighs a ton. It acts like it's clogged half the time. I even contacted Hoover and they said to "make sure the hose isn't clogged." This was brand new, so it shouldn't have a clog. So, I came to the conclusion that it doesn't suck, which sucks! I'm done with Hoover. They should recall this piece of sh@t for the inconvenience it causes.

Works like a charm January 18, 2005

I don't know about the other reviews, but we purchased this "inexpensive" vaccum and just love it. Like everyone else our older vacuum stopped working and we needed a replacement. We have two kids and company that come over several times a week, so there is always cleaning that needs to be done. Putting the vacuum together was a snap, only two screws and we were off cleaning. The first thing I noticed was how much power the unit had, even when using the hose and accessories. The second thing we noticed was that cleaning the "trap" was very easy. One point that we were concerned about was that the unit had three filters. However, every one of them can be cleaned or replaced if necessary. If I had anything negative to say about this unit is that the hose could have been longer, but then again I don't dealing with 10' of hose when its not in use. In conclusion, we would highly recommend this vacuum to anyone looking for a good, inexpensive option for getting your whole house clean the first time through.

No suction, pain in the rear January 17, 2005
10 out of 11 found this review helpful

I haven't seemed to have any luck with ANY vacuums from Hoover lately. This is my third in three years (the least expensive too) and short of the $400 one catching on fire in less than 2 months, this is the worst. Poor suction, tools are not helpful at all, the dustbin is clumsy to take off and reinstall and the filter throws dust everywhere when you yank it out.

Don't buy this vaccuum!
