Nice Vacuum for the Price September 24, 2008
I've only had the vacuum a few months, but so far I've been pleased with the performance. It works great on our carpets and pretty good on the hardwood floors. It does seem to miss stuff along the edge, especially along baseboards - I have to go over it a few times. And the attachments are a little too short - to clear the cobwebs in my ceiling corners, I actually have to pick up the vacuum for the attachment to reach.

4 out of 5 stars

Belt Broke September 24, 2008
Had two busted belts in less than a month. None since then (almost a year). Works great and picks up almost anything.

Functional and light September 22, 2008
The Hoover Tempo Widepath is exactly what I wanted to vacuum the carpeting and hall in my second-story home. This vacuum replaces a Phantom for which I could not get parts. Occasionally I take it downstairs to use on a living room carpet. I use a Sears canister vacuum for hardwood floors downstairs and usually for upstairs walls and ceilings.

The best features of the Hoover are:
-- lightweight (I can easily carry it up and down stairs and it moves easily across the floor)
-- great suction that picks up dog hair and other small items
-- price/performance is fantastic.

I agree with previous reviewers who found the configuration a bit awkward for attachments and the cord which is too short.

Agree with most reviewers - Best Choice September 21, 2008
Worth every penny.
I cannot think of anything bad about this vaccum cleaner for the price.

Brushes never turn off, poor for pet hair September 20, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

I was excited to get this vacuum based on all the great reviews it got. It's relatively light and my wife prefers uprights. On the second use I accidentally ran over a cord and the brushes pulled it in, locked up, and ended up breaking the vacuum's motor belt. Because of the awkward placement of the on/off switch (on the body and not the handle), I couldn't turn it off in time to prevent this. So I went to the vacuum parts store feeling like a fool because I just broke my brand new vacuum and bought a new belt which was very inexpensive. After completing an easy repair, everything seemed to be working fine. My wife noticed it made an unusual smell- kind of a burning smell whenever it was on and refused to use it. Also the brushes NEVER turn off. So when you are using the attachment tools, the brushes are continuously going which is frustrating because you feel like it's digging a hole in the carpet. I have thicker, nice carpeting downstairs, which it does an okay job on (although it leaves lots of cat hair behind), but is useless on my cheap, very short carpet upstairs or the tile floors- it won't really pick up anything. I've owned this thing for over a year and today went out and bought a new vacuum. I'm planning on tossing this thing in the trash after dinner. :)
