Excellent value

Several hundred 5-star reviews say it all. There's little I can add to what has already been said. But this is such a great vacuum, at such a great price, that it deserved another 5-star review. The motor is surprisingly powerful and although not self-propelled, it does have a bit of a pull, making it easy to use over carpets of all thickness. Another plus is that this vacuum doesn't produce lots of dust and odor, like some cheaper vacuums. This is great for someone with allergies, like myself. My previous vacuum (Hoover supreme soft and light) was so bad that I would periodically have to clean the exhaust vents at the bottom of the vacuum because they'd be so covered in dust.

Love it!!

I really like this machine. It cleans well, has great suction, and is fairly quiet. The attachments aren't that great, but for the price it really is a good machine. Love it!

Great Product for the Price

This purchase replaced a different brand product that had lost its oomph and whose hose ripped open.
Negatives: (1)The power cord is a bit shorter than I'd like, but no big deal. (2)The hose is short, so if you are going to use the onboard tools, you may want to invest in the longer hose that is available as an option. I didn't and don't regret it.
Positives: (1)This machine REALLY cleans carpets well. Its power is...well, it brings a smile to my face as I realize that I have made a wise investment. (2)I read that this vacuum cleaner doesn't clean up mess from a bare floor. My experience is just the opposite. (3)I read that the plastic parts are shoddy. Well, if you want a vacuum cleaner that is made from stainless steel, be prepared to push around the extra heft. Frankly, if this cleaner breaks, replacing it with the same model will still cost less than buying a much more expensive model (for which there is no guarantee that it will be much better built).
In sum, I'm happy with the purchase. I've used the machine for over a month and if I had to buy a vacuum cleaner knowing what I know now, I'd buy the Hoover U5-140-900 Tempo Widepath bagged upright.

Happy at first, disappointed now

Was very happy when I first received the vacuum. Worked great. They were right about it being loud. Be prepared. The suctioning power seemed to die off relatively quickly. Now its been a year and it doesn't seem to pick up much. I took it to a Hoover store and was told it is working fine. They suggested I play with the carpet height setting. But doesn't seem to make a huge difference. Plus it seems to be getting harder to move. Sort of pulled itself along at first. I guess the brushes were new, but now is very hard to push in certein spots. Cannot understand how the store indicated it is working properly. Was cheap vacuum but it only lasted a year. I have an old red Hoover that is close to 10 years old and it works so much better than the new one. Had good expectations becuase this vacuum was given a positive review by Consumer Reports.
