Advantages: none Disadvantages: Not really a vacuum cleaner, more like an electric heater!
I have had the same problems with this model as the previous reviewer and I am now sending it back!
After the first week of use the suction decreased dramatically and has been non-existent ever since. I also have a one bedroom flat and have to empty the dust chamber halfway through if I wish to vacuum all the rooms. It won't pick up even small bits of fluff and dust with the main attachment. The vacuum also heats up to such a degree that the outer case is almost untouchable, whilst the air valve inside continues to make a deafening noise.
The Hoover helpline (once you can get through to the right section) were helpful, sending out a replacement filter, promptly. However, I had already washed the original filter several times to no avail and the new filter just had a momentary effect, up until the point some dust actually made it ...
Advantages: Looks good Disadvantages: Doesn't 'hoover' well
I totally agree with the two previous reviewers who have given this only one star. We bought this product because we thought that 'If anyone knows how to make a vacuum cleaner then Hoover will'. We were wrong. Straight out of the box, the suction seemed very good and worthy of the 2000w rating. Trouble is, after using it a few times the suction power dropped badly. The problem seems to be that whenever the filter gets a little dirty (as it will), then the suction disappears. Cleaning the filter is awkward and messy and only improves matters for a short time. Also It needs to be emptied constantly. (another messy task). I also find the 'nanopack storage system' just makes the nozzle bulkier & more awkward to use than a conventional cleaner. So yes, this has been a waste of money. In the meantime, the little Durabrand vacuum which we ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Hoover TFS7209
Advantages: Has it all! ... its very tiny! Disadvantages: Nothing major really!
This bagless Hoover, vacuum cleaner (weird saying that as I always call a vacuum cleaner a Hoover anyway) comes with loads of gadgets specially for the very accetable price of £60!
The list is:
A massive "2000W Max Motor Power"- so you know is going to pick up dust well!
A "Hepa Filtration" - which filters the air, ideal for all you allergy sufferers out there!
A "Pets Turbo Brush" - designed to pick up all pet hairs (really good as a lot of vacuum cleaners dont come with this and you have to purchase this seperately from the supplier)
Its "Nanopack Feature" - basically its super time and can be stored in a 45cm cube!
"Rubber Rotowheels" - which will protect your laminate flooring when it moves across.
All "Tools on Board" - so you dont lose them or waste time looking for the one you need!
The pros--- other than ...
