I just recently purchased thos Hoover after I saw the infomercial. My husband said we live in an apartment and I said I don't care. They forgot to do my rugs when I moved in and they needed to be done. We did the living room first and I was so amazed. I have never walked barefooted in our apartment and now I do. You would be amazed to see how much dirt it pulled up. It made me feel so much better. Also, the fact that my kids are asthmatic and it got rid if all that dirt. The Hoover also sucks up excess water so it dries quickly. That is also a great feature because of my kids breathing. Thank you Hoover you have a loyal customer forever!!!
