Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hoover U8371-900 WindTunnel 2 Complete Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner

Customer Review: DON'T BUY IT!
Summary: 1 Stars

Wow! Never wrote a review before, but would like to lend a helping hand for the next person considering buying this unit. DON'T BUY IT! My last vacuum was a Hoover Windtunnel self-propelled vacuum. I loved it with the exception of the self-propelled function breaking twice. I figured I would purchase the newest and best Wind Tunnel 2 Complete Bagless Upright w/o self propelled. I'm strong...I don't need it, I thought. Well, that would soon prove to be the stupidest choice I ever made. It is hard to push this vacuum at times. I vacuum daily. I have a daycare business with children here every day. I like my floors clean. I have babies that crawl on it. I have many pets also. Most do not cause a problem with pet hair. The dog is a non-shedding bred. The parakeets scatter bird seed and small feathers each day that need to be picked up. The other pets do not have issues with pet hair/debris. Therefore, pet hair was not the reason I really purchased this vacuum. I just like clean rugs! Well, I wish I came here first to read the reviews. I wouldn't have done it. I have the EXACT problems the other review-er's have! The dirt finder light does not work! It turns on the "dirty" signal upon turning on the power to let you know its lamp is working. That's it. I purposely run the vacuum over small, but plenty of debris, and NOTHING! Says it's "Clean" all the time. I can hear the debris being picked up, but no "Dirty" signal. They're right. Within the first week of purchasing...the so-called HEPA filter was not turning, clogged with dust and being blown EVERYWHERE while I choked trying to clear it. It makes a loud "popping" sound which I cannot figure out where it's coming from. It comes and goes. I think it has something to do with the motor of this vacuum. It has moments when it sucks really hard and other times when there is no suction at all with the hoses. I am a fanatic! I clean this unit after each vacuuming. There's little dirt to empty. It all seems to be trapped in the HEPA filter which I cannot clean. I have resorted to taking my old Wind Tunnel to vacuum the HEPA filter as best as I can. Then it worked for a little bit, and happened again 1 week later. Hoover claims they have no complaints from other customers regarding these identical problems! Who are they kidding? This is the first time I purchased a vacuum through an on-line site (another mistake I will never make). They were a great company, but don't take the vacuum's back. You have to have it serviced at the closest repair center (thankfully, for me, is 5 miles away.) Now, tell me why I should have to take a month old vacuum for service? It's not going to fix these problems....it's the terrible design of the unit! I will never buy another one of these again! Lisa Ranzino, Sewell, NJ
