Satan's vacuum cleaner

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Where do I start ?!

...Hoover Dustmanager Cyclonic Bagless Cylinder Cleaner. Sometimes inanimate objects make me really angry. I kind of have a 'Basil Fawlty' moment where I have to shout, scream and kick it a bit in the hope that it will somehow make it work. This vacuum cleaner ladies and gents is one of those such objects. Never before have I been driven to the brink of insanity or felt such rage and fury against something. I can feel my blood boil as I think about this hoover even though it went to the great rubbish dump in the sky a good 3 months ago now. THE TECHNICAL STUFF • Model number TC5212. • 2100 watts. • 2.5 litre dust capacity. • Washable HEPA filtration. • Foot operated cord rewind and on/off control. • Includes floor brush, dusting brush and crevice tool. • On-board tool storage...

Review of Hoover TC5212 Cylinder

Damn good Hoover . . .

Advantages: Light, efficient etc
Disadvantages: None

...Right, those members remembering Hoover Juniors, will know they are a bog standard little vaccuum, correct so far. What has changed is the design, gone is the functional practical austere look, this is the new Doctor Who of cleaners. This is the new improved "Hoover with attitude" It looks modern, stylish even, and I dare say designers have been briefed to give it a sort of "In your face image". While I have absolutely nothing against the idea of a household appliance being trendy, or even cool, I just think that we should keep out feet on the ground. "It is only a vaccuum cleaner" nothing more, nothing less. Weight is only 3.8 Kgs, very light for this type of appliance. Availability is good, you will find them everywhere. As for the price, do not pay more than £35, this seems an enormous amount of money to me, but...

hoover vision HD 862

Advantages: NUMEROUS! PLEASE READ ON......
Disadvantages: none significant, but more than 1 yr guarantee would be nice, at the price

...young teen took to it easily, always a good thing!! It has one year guarantee, with an extra 4 years on parts, but you pay labour (has to be repaired by Hoover at Hoover prices). They also offer you 4 years labour insurance at about £180, to be arranged within 30 days. What I like best is the big drum size, quick 15 minute wash, very high spin, and fact that the drum is quite high so loading isn't such a strain on the back. The porthole is very wide and the door opens wide, although not to a full 180. All in all I think it was a sound buy. I paid £359 from a local dealer including delivery and installation and taking away all packing. I could have probably got it cheaper from a big online store but I like to support local firms and knew they would give a trustworthy service as I have bought from them before. The small neat manual...

Hoover makes washing machines???

Advantages: fits in a king size duvet
Disadvantages: onlly 1200 spin

...My last washing machine broke down a few weeks ago and after a painful 13 days my new Hoover was delivered, no it is a washing machine just made by Hoover. I bought it from Littlewoods catalogue and it cost me £299. Setting up and installation First I had to remove all the plastic packaging and polystyrene and place the washing machine near its permanent position. Next I cut the cable tie that was holding the hose in place. Then I removed four big long fixing screws in the back of the washing machine and covered them with a cap that was provided. Next to fix a bit of insulation sheet to the bottom of the machine with some double sided sticky pads and a couple of plastic caps. I did not need to adjust the feet as the washing machine was stable and did not hop across the floor. It only has a cold fill so only one hose to fit...

Proaction Vacuum Cleaner

Advantages: cheap and compact
Disadvantages: none really

...Proaction SL208 Bag-Less Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner After moving in to my new built flat and having limited space for things such as Vacuum Cleaners and such like the idea to get rid of the oversized old cleaner was of course my own and not the thinking of my rather thrifty boyfriend. We did however come to a compromise and instead of my idea to get a compact Dyson for a large amount of money we settled on a compact cheap vacuum cleaner from Argos instead. The idea of getting a bag less vacuum cleaner was really mine as I find the whole idea of having to spend money on bags, which seem to fill up in our house pretty quickly, only to throw away seems such a waste. The cheapest bag less vacuum cleaner available in Argos is indeed the very one we bought, this Proaction SL208. It set us back a mere £24.99p a price that I find...

Lets Hoover up?

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...

Review of Hoover TFS7209

Hoover washing machine

Advantages: Energy efficient, can handle big loads
Disadvantages: Can make a few noises some times, but nothing mager at all.

...Not quite a year ago me and my family needed to purchase a new washing machine, so we ended up looking through quite a few brands, as you do. We wanted one that was energy efficient, not to complicated and could handle a vaste amount of washing, as are other one gave out the ghost from over loading and living in a hard water area. So in the end after swaying from one brand to another we ended up on this Hoover brand and i have to say it really has fulfilled all our washing needs. First of all most importantly it can handle a good 6kg to 7kg of washing, which is great where my family is concerned! It doesn't have a fancy LCD display which is actualy a good thing as the controls are less likely to go wrong because you've got less technical things to deal with, it also features a handy balancing mechanism...

When is a Hoover not a Hoover? When its a Vacuum

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

...20 years after she bought it new! Now, I don't expect the TW 1550 Sprint to give us anything like as much life, and to be honest, I've been rather wary of Hoovers for a few years now because I've known a number of people have problems with them. Having said that, they are all Upright Cleaners that I was aware of, and this is a cylinder style machine so that stood it in good stead. And I was desperate for a vacuum cleaner. I had given up on the Upright I had got because I suffer with arthritis and I was just finding it far too heavy to move around the house, because it was just too clumsy. And as usual, I didn't have much money to spend and a house with 2 dogs meant we needed something and fairly urgently. I also wanted to ensure that we had either a bag-less machine or something that had a re-useable bag, partly on grounds...
