We gave our new Hoover High Performances Swivel XL Vacuum a real workout today. Our lanai is where our 78 pound lab mix hangs it most of the time so there is a constant barrage of her shedded hair and the dirt and grass she tracks in on the floor. It was super easy to assemble and it was ready to roar right out of the box. We ran the vacuum back and forth over the tiles and in no time the bag less (thankfully) reservoir was half full. We emptied it and started again to another almost full reservoir. The attachments worked just as well on the furniture cushions and behind and underneath the furniture so we didn't need to move anything. Very easy to maneuver on caret or tile. We currently have a Dyson and the Hoover outperformed it. The Hoover XL is highly recommended to pet owners or to anyone wanting a highly efficient vacuum for the areas of your home that seem to attract dirt or dust.
