Advantages: large load and easy to load
Disadvantages: long cycles and no seperate fast spin

...i Bought this washing machine to replace a hoover quattro 1100spin that i had used nearly every day for 6 years. The HNF2137 has a large load capacity of 7.5kg but only on certain cycles some cycles can only take 3.5kg which is a big difference. The door is wide opening and much easier to load or unload and to keep the inside clean. It has a countdown timer but this is only divided into 60mins, 30 mins and 15mins so you never now how long over an hour is left. There is also a door lock indicater light so you don't try to open the door before its ready to open. There is a variable temperature control and the machine feeds only from the cold water supply and then heats to the required temperature. This is probably the main reason the wash cycles take so long. The 40 degree coloured cycle takes 2 hours + 15 mins to complete. Although... Read review

Advantages: plenty of wash programmes
Disadvantages: expensive

...i recently purchases a Hoover Quattro 1300 as my old washer was only a cheapie and on its last legs!! The thing that attracted me to this apart from hoover being a good make, was the amount of wash programmes and spin speed is 1300. It also has a jet clean system to help circulate the water, the god thing is you can choose any programme number and alter the spin speed and /or Temperature to suit your clothes. it also has an express wash for normal stains or a longer wash if needed, plus the usual creaseguard etc. The main thing i did notice is how quiet it is when it spins and also how little water it uses!! A good washer allround but not cheap!... Read review

Advantages: Fast, fun, solid build, reliable engine, and very safe
Disadvantages: Not very pratical, more of a posers car then a serious sports car

...Test model Audi TT 225 Quattro Reg No. X665 NLB Imported model LHD Mileage 73,100 Actual 0-60: 5.5 secs Obtained MPH: 147mph The Audi TT since its release has been a highly successful coupe. Released in 1998 in Europe the baby Audi has certainly proved it is not a baby under the skin. Our model we purchased is a 2000 X plated imported model (registered UK in 2002) has got just over 73,000 miles and is the metallic denim blue, with the RS4 18" alloys. A truly stunning car. We bought our TT for £9495 not bad considering the mileage and the fact it's a 225 Quattro with 18" alloys, full blue inside, and a 10 CD changer. I live in Birmingham and picked up the car from the Bucks town of Chesham so had to quickly find my bearings in a town I had never been in a LHD car. It was interesting. After a few payment issues...

Advantages: complete pram package
Disadvantages: heavy, bulky

...The dreaded choice of which pram to buy and which one is best was mind boggling with all that is available today, after much thought I decided to buy the Graco Quattro because of the different functions suitable for different age ranges and the addition of the carry cot, as I walk alot I thought this would be more comfortable for my baby. The things I like about this pram are its suitability from birth, it seems to be very comfy for the baby, the main pram as head support , the large shopping basket, the pram bar has space for a bottle/beaker good for when baby is older so its easy for them to help themselves, the extra storage by the handle, brill for mobile, keys, dummies etc, nice colours available, true lie flat pram, 4 seat positions, large hood, handy for the sunny weather, it looks good. My dislikes are its heavy, quite... Read review

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. As I've already hinted at, the Hoover became synonymous for vacuum cleaners here in the UK. Although the company is no longer the major seller of Vacuums in the country... Read review

Advantages: BAGS CAN EASILY BE OBTAINED,LONG LASTING IF REPAIRS ARE CARRIED OUT
Disadvantages: ITS ALL TO AVERAGE!!!

...A Hoover is a very important household piece of equipment, which is why it’s always wise to carry a spare. I was given a Hoover Turbo Power 2 hoover cleaner due to my Dad upgrading to an electro contour 500 with enough suction to take your hand off! My First impression of the Hoover was “ what a heap… but it don’t cost me anything”. I gave it a whiz round the house. I was now way impressed by its performance but it had a good enough excuse… I t was nearly 9 years of age. It has served my Dad well over the 9 years of use with at least one cat about all of the time so its obviously been well used. Appearance. Well behind the various scratches and a bash where the poor thing has collided with the wallpaper was a very dark blue Hoover. The general appearance is dull and it’s obvious... Read review

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Everything about it

...After the sad death of my Dyson and three days without a hoover I was very pleased when a large cardboard box arrived containing my replacement - a Hoover Hurricane 350 series. I couldn't wait to get it open and get at my carpets, so out of the box it came ... eventually! It was quite large, heavy, and black (though at this point my enthusiasm was not to be dampened - I had a new hoover and I was going to like it). A quick read of the instructions - an upright bagless hoover that's easy to empty, a few filters that would need cleaning every so often, but other than that all seemed straightfoward. It has four different settings depending on the length of your carpet, a detachable hose for round the edges and stairs with a selection of brushes that fit into the back of the hoover and can be used on the hose attachment. It also had... Read review

Advantages: Good Suction, lightweight
Disadvantages: none

...I bought this hoover after a secondhand upright electrolux of my Grandma's erupted in smoke. To be honest I was pleased that it had finally died as it was too heavy for me to use easily. So taking into consideration that I wanted a lightweight hoover, that was powerful enough to get the job done quickly I did some research on the web and finally selected the Telios 1600 (T5603). I have so far been very impressed with it. Appearance The Telios 1600 comes in two lovely colours; the Cyber Green (T5610) and blue (T5603). My hoover is the blue. It is a fairly compact size, nicely rounded, almost 'bug like' looking in my opinion. The chrome tubes are adjustable, so you can set it to the right length for your height, and make it shorter for easier storage. The most ingenious part of the design is in my opinion an internal storage... Read review

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Cheap

...We bought this hoover for about £40 which is relatively cheap as far as a hoover goes. Being cheap suited us quite well as we didn't have the money and still don't to get a good one. At first it seemed a good buy with the following specifications ... Style : Cylinder Power : 1600 Watts Filtration system : Microfiltration Capacity : 2.2/2.5 litres (depends on what website you get stats from) Bag : Washable Dust bag Weight : 4.2kg Power type : Mains Automatic Cable Rewind Speed settings : Variable speed settings Various hoover attachments With 1600 watts it was powerful with good cleaning power, the small bag meant a lot of emptying but that was ok. The cable rewind was good as it kept cable tidy and the variable speed settings, to be honest were not used. It is small and light and very easy to use... Read review
