| The Rechargeable Stick-Vacs Just Can't Compete.: Rating: 5/5 |
I originally wanted to purchase a rechargeable stick vacuum, but after doing a couple hours of research, it seemed that every vacuum contained a review that said it sometimes did not pick up everything, like a "Cheerio" on the kitchen floor for example. So I figured what's the point of having the convenience of a rechargeable vacuum if it isn't going to vacuum well. (?)
Therefore, I did some more research and went with this plug-in vacuum... and I am glad that I did. The suction power is excellent and it picks up everything that a light vacuum should. Last week it even picked-up a small metal screw that was sitting in the corner of my kitchen floor (with the rotating brush turned OFF). *Cheerios beware!* The fact that you can turn off the rotating brush to vacuum hard floors is a great feature as well. Bottom line is, that if you want excellent suction power, you're just going to have to bite-the-bullet go with a plug-in version. No battery pack in the world is going to compete with the power of a 110-Volt outlet. This Hoover stick vacuum is a perfect choice and I highly recommend it.

| Does what it's supposed to do: Rating: 4/5 |
| This is quite a powerful stick vacuum. I especially like the second motor in the head for use on small rugs. The only negative is that I wish it had about 6 -8 more feet of cord. I would certainly buy it again. |

| Super Suction For a Small Vac!: Rating: 5/5 |
| This is an AWESOME vacuum! Buying these little versions can be a pain because you don't want to end up with a vac that does not have any suction, but this one has phenomenal power. I use it on tile, carpet, and wood flooring and it picks up everything. You can actually see the dirt get sucked into the vac before the head even rolls over it, which makes it great to use against the baseboards. Transitioning from carpet to floor is very easy as you just push a button to switch from each. It does not scratch up my wood floors. It does feel hot after a while, but I have not had any problems with it overheating and kicking off. The container is easy to empty. I highly recommend this vacuum! |

| Motor broken in 10 months: Rating: 1/5 |
| I thought Hoover was a good name. Wrong. This Flair vacuum lasted 10 months. The brush motor is broken and costs as much as the original vac to replace. This is a waste of money. I'm staying away from Hoover products. |

| Hoover Flair Bagless Upright Stick vacuum S2220: Rating: 5/5 |
| After thoroughly reviewing all brands, makes and models online, in consumer reports magazine, in customer reviews and physically looking at them in the stores, I chose this lightweight bagless upright and have not been disappointed. The value for the money is top-notch. It is not a cheap looking product either, as I looked at others in the stores that looked like they had so many bells and whistles that would break off or crack upon any real usage. I highly recommend this product. Since I recently replaced most of the carpet in my home with hard surface flooring, such as 16" ceramic tile and wood laminate flooring, I love the fact that I can zip through and clean the entire house in under an hour without having to lug my heavy regular upright around with the cumbersome hose attachment that kept coming detached from the base. Good product, good purchase, happy customer! |
