I love this Hoover! I was hoping this vaccum would work as well as it says it does and let me tell you, it does! I loved how powerful it felt when I would use it on thicker carpet. I found that it works great on bare floors as well. I run it down my hallways everyday and it saves me time in doing my daily housework. I would very highly reccomend this Hoover. Try it you will not be let down.
