Hoover Tempo Widepath Upright Vacuum, Bagged, U5140-900

I had low expectations with this inexpensive vacuum but I purchased it due to the low price, free shipping and the great Amazon reviews. We have had it for a year and it works much better than my old vacuum from Sears that cost $250. I tried a Dyson at one point but it was so bulky, difficult to clean my car with and expensive that I returned it to Sears. That was a total waste of money. This vacuum is relatively light and has great sucking power and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It is totally sufficent and it costs what a vacuum should cost.

Works very well for 2-bedroom apartament. Fits in the closet easily. Copletely satisfied with purchase. For a house, you may consider to buy more expensive model with extra features.

Like several others, I purchased this vacuum after reading all the positive reviews. For the most part, I agree with them. This is a fantastic vacuum cleaner that's a superior value. Unfortunately, the unit I purchased broke down after 20 months. I'm tempted to buy another one since it worked so well for those 20 months and the price is still a relative steal. That said, I will be mindful of the durability. While there's only so much you can expect for less than $70, I was hoping that my product would last at least three years.

Bottom line: brilliant when it worked and a tremendous value, but I worry about the durability.

We have been trying to find a vacuum cleaner for several years to pick up the dog hair in our apartment. This was a pleasant surprise and the shipping was so far.

My Riccar died and was irreparable so after reading the reviews on this vacuum I was sold.

I love it!

It is that beautiful blue you see in the Amazon photo.
I love having the attachments being attached to the machine so I can pull off whatever I need and use it immediately. It comes with:
2 extension wands
crevice tool
furniture nozzle
dusting brush

The vacuum has five settings from high carpet down to bare floor and the suction is fantastic. After a much needed vacuuming of the whole house after waiting between working vacuums, this one's bag filled in two days, so I know it was really doing a great job.

There is no light but I've never seen the real point to them anyway so it did not detract from the rating.
I like the stair cleaning handle on the front so I can haul it up the stairs vacuuming as I go. It is light enough to use on stairs.
It uses disposable bags.

I bought this particular vacuum because I wanted a cheap price but hard working and I got it with this one!
