Hoover Sensory Allergy TS2061

Advantages: Great cleaning quality for such a small compact machine
Disadvantages: Couple of design flaws that just irritate

...A Hoover is a Hoover, is a Hoover - Unless it's a vacuum cleaner of course! Well how many of us incorrectly talk about using a Hoover? When in fact we're just using another Vacuum cleaner - Just one of those idiosyncrasies of life today how a manufacturers name is somehow more associated with the task or appliance being used, rather than its accurate use. However, in this instance I do have a Hoover! A genuine one. A bright blue one! So, how about a little about the company: Hoover began in America, in Ohio. Eventually it established itself in the United Kingdom, and was a major player in the early and mid 1900's dominating the Vacuum cleaning industry.
