Forget the Dyson! September 24, 2008
I am in love with this vacuum. I wanted a Dyson but couldn't afford one so I searched on Consumer Reports and found this little gem. It works better than any Dyson I have ever used. It is so powerful, not too heavy, and works great on my wood floors! And I have pets too!

Ambivalence in vacuming September 22, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This vacume is my 4th in 36 years. It seems to have plenty of suction. Time will tell. Dumping the canister is rather messy; easier than the cloth bag on the old Kirby not as neat as the paper diposable on the last Hoover, but at least I don't have to buy bags anymore or try to find in the remote area we live in. Don't like the added weight of the auto drive or its action in small areas, tend to bang into stuff going forward and going backward is like when the power steering has gone out on a vehicle. The extra long hose is nice for our stairs but it's another part to find storage for.... Have 2 dogs, one a heavy shedder and it picks up that fine. Vacume came with a 2 year warrranty and filter is messy but easy to access and clean. Vacuming is a neccessary evil in my world hence the mixed review. If buying another I would look for one without the power drive. The assist in sterring doesn't make up for the added weight.

Hoover Turbo Power September 15, 2008
This is by far the best vaccuum that I've ever owned. With two rough collies, I needed something that would work well with dog hair and this product does it. Great power and suction. The attachment with the brush does tend to get a bit clogged with hair though, but its easy enough to clean out.

Never thought I'd be writing a review for a vacuum cleaner! September 12, 2008

This vacuum cleaner is amazing! I had the same hoover convertible (a cheap $50 vacuum) for almost a decade. I would've kept on vacuuming with the same old vacuum for another 10 years, but I lost all the attachments and really wanted to be able to clean in the nook and crannies. I bought this vacuum and it sat in its box for a few weeks - I was lazy and thought my old one was surviving. Then one day, half way through vacuuming the living room, I decided to swap them out and see if I could tell a difference - I was blown away!

My living room could have been a vacuum television commercial, it was night and day the difference that it made. Plus, the 6500 is so much easier to push and adjust, I couldn't believe I had been slaving away with that cheap vacuum cleaner for so long! And after it was all done, you could see in the canister just how much had been picked up. Absolutely happy with this cleaner and would buy it again in a heart beat.

On a side note, all the attachments are a joy to use too. My old collapsible hose was so stiff, made out of cheap plastic, it was a pain to use. The 6500's hose was noticeably of better quality, very flexible, that alone was surprising. All in all, I'm happy in every respect.

Do yourself a favor and buy this cleaner, don't suffer with a cheaper model!

Excellent vacuum! August 2, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I don't buy into the notion that a good vacuum should cost $400. This is an excellent vacuum. The first time I cleaned the house with it, I had to dump out the dirt chamber 4 times. It picks up a lot more than my old Hoover did. Sure, the bagless concept is a little less convenient than bagged, but the series of filters do a good job. Just keep them clean. As far as people complaining about the belts breaking, they need to read their manuals. The manual tells you that the brush bar will keep spinning when you are using the external tools, so you should be able to figure out that if you are using them, you need to change the height of the brush bar to the tallest setting to reduce the friction. Do this and you will save the belt. Bagless models need more maintenance than bagged, also. So, buy one Dyson or three or four of these and some belts? No comparison, the Dyson is a marketing success, not a better vacuum.
