I have gone through about 5 vacuums in the past 7 years. I have a combo of hard wood floors, tile, and carpet and rugs. I was nicely suprised that it had so much sucking power! Low pile rugs are a problem with this vacuum because it just sucks the rug up. Great on carpets and high pile rugs though. Not good on hard surfaced floors. As I was vacuuming the hard floors debris start to fly under the vacuum and hit me in the leg…ouch! I even adjusted the floor setting to bare floors and in between to see if it would help…nope. Using the attachments work better for sucking up things on the hard floors. Cord is a bit short and the vacuum in heavy. The main hose is a bit tough and doesn’t reach to far without the vacuum falling over. So far, I like the vacuum for the carpets but not for the hard floors. I have mixed reviews about this one…not completely happy but not completely dissapointed. If I were to give hoover advice I would say make the cord longer, the vacuum less heavy, the hose more flexible, and make it better on hard floors. I would give hoover kudos on the price and the suction power that it has. If you ONLY have carpet and high pile rugs I would highly suggest this vacuum!
