Strengths: None - No strengths at all.
Weakness: HEPA filter clogs extremely easy and stops. This causes the suction power to decrease dramatically.
We have a very clean home with one cat. The hair and dust clogs the filter and causes it to stop spinning. This spinning feature is the "self-cleaning" feature the HEPA filter has. Unfortunately when it stops spinning the filter clogs and the suction power decreases. I have a commercial shop vacuum and we spent over 30 minutes cleaning the Hoover Windtunnel 2, cleaning the filter out and within...
Strengths: none
Weakness: blows out dirt from the front creating dust everywhere, filter wheel does not self clean but gets clogged with dirt which falls out all over when you empty the dirt canister, looses suction
This is the worst vacuum cleaner I've ever seen and I'm suprised that Hoover would market such a flawed design. The extra long hose and nozzle were great selling points, as was the supposedly self cleaning filter, but I would never buy a bagless or windtunnel machine again after this experience. Used it once and returned it.
Strengths: none
Weakness: everything
This is the most poorly designed machine I have ever seen. It is continually clogging both filters and the hepa filter becomes filled with dirt quickly causing loss of all suction. I replaced it with the dyson dc17, which is awesome. Do not buy this vacuum.
Strengths: Suction power and hose reach (extra hose section included).
Weakness: Pet hair remover tool slows if pressed too hard into carpet. No place to store the extra tool provided on the vacuum. Emptying the cup could get a little messy if you don't watch what you are doing.
This vacuum is fantastic! It was a breeze to assemble (just a few parts) and it was ready to go. This machine picked up things that our old Eureka couldn't think about. I tested a 3 X 4 area and saw what we weren't picking up with the old vacuum - disgusting! I did the carpeted stairs using the pet hair tool with the extended reach hose and was very pleased with the results. If you press too hard...
Strengths: none
Weakness: poor designe, very loud, on board attachments always falling off, looses suction.
This is the WORST vacuum. I have had all the problems that the other customers have posted. I have wood floors and this vacuum does not pick up anything other than dust bunnies and thats because they have no weight to them. Any other objects that any old hoover picked up are left behind. It is very frustrating. I would not recommend this vacuum. I am also very dissapointed in Hoover. I lost the...
Strengths: none
Weakness: can't suck up anything!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the most stupid design ever!!!!!!!! I can't believe it's still on the market!! It only shaves my carpet, not suck up anything, and also makes big mess too. My 10 years old traditional sweeper works sooo much better than this expensive piece of junk.
Strengths: powerful when working correctly
Weakness: Rarely working correctly
From early on I had a problem with the self-cleaning HEPA filter clogging. The long story short is when its working it is very powerful...but its never working because the suction is cut off due to the self-cleaning HEPA filter clogging...non-stop. And cleaning it makes an utter mess. Very disappointed... As a man I wanted more power...and I didn't get it with this thing :(
Strengths: If it works, it works well
Weakness: Poor quality build, parts continually breaking, have to clean the filter continuosly.
First the stepper motor for the hepa filter stopped working. The self cleaning function was affected. Then the suction direction plate that allows the handle to be used independently got stuck. The hepa filter jams every time we use the machine and everything has to be taken apart to clean it out. The last thing to break was the handle.
Strengths: It cleans nice when it works
Weakness: Big bulky breaks a lot.
I have own this vacuum for almost a year now and it has been in the shop to be repaired 3 times. The HEPA filter is completely clogged and Hoover will not replace since it is not covered by warrantee. The reason is t clogged is because the mechanism that is supposed to rotate it to clean it out has broken twice. Recently it would just not power up, so back to the shop again. Although when it...

How to fix the filter that doesn't spin
Strengths: Alright when it works
Weakness: Breaks down
This vacuum has a good cleaning system when it works. It seems the problem that I've had along with the problem most other people have is the filter stops spinning and gets clogged. This means the vacuum won't pick up anything and the hose won't work. I took the vacuum apart today and figured out how to fix it. 1. Take all the screws out of the top part of the vacuum to pull the white and orange(...
