Hoover WindTunnel Cyclonic 900 – Many Pros but Review Your Options,
The Hoover U5780-900 Windtunnel Cyclonic Bagless Upright has a lot going for it. I wanted something with suction as close to Dyson as I could get. At the same time I didn’t want to spend Dyson prices on a vacuum or settle for a used one to save money. It won’t satisfy everybody but review your options. Depending on your needs this may be a strong contender for you.
I have used many vacuums, including the usual suspects (Hoover, Bissel, Eureka, Oreck, Kenmore, etc) and newer models like the Dyson. I will openly admit I tend to clean a lot and I am perhaps more demanding on a vacuum than the casual user. Overall, I am willing to accept the shortcomings of this vacuum because it performs good enough for the money.
Pros
+ The vacuum does capture plenty of dirt and will perform well with regular emptying, cleaning and maintenance
+ Even though it is made of plastic, it feels more solid than the Dyson DC07; perhaps it is stronger plastic or includes more heavy internals to hold it together
+ The cord has a nice rewind button to tuck it away when not in use
+ The cord also has a cool hook near the handle to keep it out of the way when pulling it in reverse during use
+ The price is relatively less than similar performing vacuums, including every Dyson model except for some low-end refurbished units, making this Hoover a better value
+ The colors of the unit are more conservative than many bright models being sold today
+ The motor is less noisy than many other vacuums I have tried, despite the strong suction
+ The power button is located conveniently on the handle, unlike some older Hoovers
+ The included accessories allow you to detail around edges and furniture, although you must handle with care for the vacuum’s stability
Cons
– Has a small bin and the aggressive brush, so you will have to empty the bin frequently
– Emptying the dust bin is messy and will require you to get your hands dirty to clean the bottom of the bin
– Cleaning the inside of the bin is also messy and requires partial disassembly; people with OCD will DEFINITELY be a little frustrated by those hard to reach areas 🙂
– The wheels and base are designed like an old-fashioned vacuum, so it won’t turn as easily as newer units like the Dyson ball models
– The vacuum may feel heavy to some people and can be a slight workout when moving in tight spaces; Self propelled versions are easier to move around
– The vacuum will capture tons of carpet fibers, especially on the lowest setting; this is a minor con that will diminish over time with use
– Even the internal HEPA filters and gaskets will require maintenance and cleaning to keep this at top performance (not so much a negative as it is a consideration)
No it is not perfect. Like all bag-less vacuums, it is messier to empty and will require some cleaning and maintenance. Yes, the internal filters need to be periodically rinsed and dried, and the HEPA filter needs to be surface cleaned at least 3 times a year.
It also may be too heavy and hard to maneuver for some people. This vacuum does perform pretty well for those who don’t mind the old-fashioned style maneuvering of a traditional wheel base and the heavy lifting that comes along with a unit that isn’t *self-propelled*. While the price isn’t a steal, all decent units are expensive these days and this is relatively better value than many other competing models.
Those who want to turn on a dime may want to look at the newer Dyson ball models, and those who want effortless maneuvering may want to test the self-propelled models. However, if you are price-sensitive you may still opt to put up with the small shortcomings of this unit to save a few bucks.
Enjoy.
