Hoover UH30010COM Features & Functionality

(Back to Top)

If your house is full of furniture that’s taller than you are, or possessed of a spectacular staircase chandelier or four, then the Hoover Platinum Collection™ Lightweight Bagged Upright with Canister Vacuum is just what you’ve been looking for. It has all the power and functionality of a normal bagged upright Hoover with a few extra special additions. This particular little Hoover comes with an extra lightweight handheld canister with a hose attachment and shoulder strap to make those finicky top-of-the-cupboard cleaning jobs as easy for you as possible. The vacuum also comes with a nifty extension wand, a crevice tool, and a dusting brush to help you keep your home in pristine condition.

Hoover UH30010COM, like all others in its family, makes use of patented WindTunnel technology to suck up dirt using three separate channels of suction. This ensures that you could the very best clean for your surfaces as well as a drastic reduction in the amount of dirt being blown back onto your floors. There’s nowhere it can hide from the powerful suction of this upright vacuum, driven by an impressive 12 amps of motor power. This also cuts cleaning time substantially so you can get on with other tasks of importance.

Tired of having to randomly check your vacuum bag every few minutes because you’re worried it might overfill? Worry no more. The Hoover UH30010COM has a useful full bag indicator to let you know exactly when the dirt bag needs emptying. No more guesswork! Ideal for those worried A-types who can never be sure whether the bag is half-full or half-empty! The bags are also made of HEPA media, which needs to meet very strict filtration specifications (picking up 99.97% of all particles bigger than 0.3 microns) so you needn’t worry about dust affecting your family’s health. The bag is also easily replaceable.

The Hoover UH30010COM weighs a sum total of 12 pounds – light enough for the stairs and light on your back too. Hear that? It’s the sound of your spine sighing in relief! The vacuum cord itself is an incredible 35 feet long, letting you clean whole rooms without having to constantly unplug and lug around the vacuum itself to reach those difficult spots. No need to worry about the efficiency of the suction either – height adjustment is automatic to suit all your flooring needs. The Bagged Upright also has bristle-edged channels to specifically target the finicky edges of your flooring.

The Hoover UH30010COM comes with a particularly useful LED headlight to help you reach even the most evasive dirt underneath or behind furniture. The Hoover UH30010COM also has a Scuff Guard bumper to prevent damage to your furniture surfaces or walls.

The Hoover UH30010COM is also relatively easy to put together – all you need is a screwdriver to assemble it, and you’re that much closer to a clean, dirt-free home.

Lightweight , maneuverability, power, and quality are the top things we looked for. This vacuum has them all. It has a high quality feel, picks up anything we throw at it including tons of dog hair, and is easy to move around the house.

Transitions from hard floors to carpet without a hitch. The canister is also excellent, makes it easy for small jobs, touch up after main vacuuming, and makes stairs a cake-walk.

The bags are quality as well, seem to filter really well as there is no sneezing going on, or funny air smell while we vaccum...(read more here: Hoover UH30010COM Review)”

I have had lots of vacuums in my life, uprights, cannisters, inexpensive and pricey. This vacuum beats them all.  This Hoover is lightweight and powerful, and surprisingly very quiet for how much it is picking up. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase and would recommend this machine to anyone looking for an upright vacuum…(read more here: Hoover UH30010COM Review)”

Hoover Tempo Widepath Features & Functionality

(Back to Top)

Big families require big houses – and a big house means a big floor space to clean. Nobody wants to spend ages continually vacuuming over spots they’ve missed because of the lack of a decent-sized vacuum head. The Hoover Tempo Widepath’s solution to this particular problem is simple – an amazing 15 inches of suction width, ideal for larger rooms.

The Hoover Widepath also has a lengthy cord size of 25 feet, to help you clean entire rooms without having to keep unplugging and plugging the unit when you reach the limit of the cord a scant inch or two away from that irritating clump of detritus underneath the couch.

The Widepath also features a five-level floor height adjustment to ensure that long-haired carpeting doesn’t become snagged or pulled up into the rollers. Incidentally, these are motor powered to give the suction an extra kick. The Widepath also slips neatly under tables and chairs without you having to bend to extreme depths to get it to go so far.

With an impressive 12-amp motor, the dirt on your floors doesn’t stand much of a chance, and the Side Dirt path makes quick work of any escaping muck. No need to fuss about pet hair or dander ever again – the allergen filtration system picks up those pesky particles that trigger the sniffles quick as a flash, as well as dust mites, ragweed and most common pollens. Maybe Fluffy might actually get to spend some time inside the house instead of being banished outside for his luscious locks!

Concerned about vacuum-cleaner blowout? Relax! The rinsable air filters trap dust and stop it from leaving the Widepath once it’s gone in, so the air being expelled from the vacuum is much cleaner. Emptying the vacuum bag is a breeze too – much simpler than tipping out a canister and risking a mouthful of dust.

The Hoover Tempo Widepath is a solid piece of cleaning equipment, sturdy enough to tackle even your most frightening carpet. Yes, this means the one in the guestroom which you haven’t seen since you started storing things in there! This Hoover isn’t likely to flake out on you, some customers having used theirs every other day for periods longer than three years with a constant level of cleaning power. Say what you like about bagless vacuums with endless amounts of attachments and fiddly bits, this Hoover U5140-900n is beautiful in its simplicity. It covers more space in less time, which is more than can be said for many of the shinier, more aesthetically orientated vacuum models out there. Sure, they look good, but since when can good looks get a carpet clean?

Backs, vacuums and stairs have never been the healthiest of combinations – luckily for you, the Widepath weighs only a little over 19 pounds, making it the ideal vacuum for wider stairs and large second floor rooms. The Widepath also has a ready-to-use hose for those trickier spots, as well as a crevice tool, dusting brush, upholstery brush and wand, to make your cleaning that extra bit more efficient. Who said you can’t enjoy the experience?

I put it together, spent 2 minutes vacuuming, and was so impressed that I turned it off to go write a review. At first I was disappointed… some dog hairs remained embedded in the carpet. Then I checked the suction power… it came set on “high,” but out of curiosity I switched it to “bare floor.” The difference was positively ASTOUNDING. The suction was, in fact, so strong that it was harder to push than before (was it gripping the carpet?), and left a ridiculously clean rug. Also impressively, it didn’t suck in the tassels on my rug! (read more here: Hoover Tempo Widepath Review)”

“This is the best vacuum I’ve ever owned. It sucks up everything, is a breeze to use and is self-propelled, making it easy on your back. Be careful as it does have intense suction–I got to close to my curtains and sucked them up so make sure nothing is in it’s path. I truly could not recommend a product more highly–love this vacuum!  (read more here: Hoover Tempo Widepath Review)”

Hoover UH70210 Features & Functionality

(Back to Top)

No need to panic if Fido’s put dirty paw prints on Gran’s Persian carpet   – The Hoover Pet Rewind UH70210 makes use of WindTunnel technology to remove deeply embedded dirt, as well as preventing it from being blown around by the vacuum itself. WindTunnel technology makes use of three separate suction channels to ensure maximum dirt removal. But what if Gran’s carpet and the luxury plush in your bedroom aren’t of the same height or fiber make-up? Simple. The Hoover UH70210 allows you to adjust the height of the vacuum to suit the floor you’re cleaning. There are five different levels to choose from, so you’ll never have to worry about missing any dirt due to height issues. This vacuum gets right into the middle of the mess instead of hovering above it.

If a hair clog should occur when vacuuming bigger carpets with the main vacuum head, simply open the brushroll window to remove it. The easier you can reach it, the easier it is to remove it!

Worried about your expensive hardwood flooring? Simply tap the Suction Only Mode foot pedal and vacuum away, assured that you aren’t risking any damage to your floors by the brushroll.

To save you time, and effort, the Hoover UH70210 features a dual-stage cyclonic filtration system which separates dirt with ease. This means that the filter does not have to be changed as often, and even then it’s incredibly easy. Both the primary and secondary filters are washable – and you needn’t guess when to clean them either. This little vacuum has a green to red indicator to let you know exactly when its time to give the filters a quick rinse.

As mentioned in previous reviews, many Hoover vacuums contain high quality HEPA air filters – and the Hoover UH70210 is no exception. The carbon filter also traps all those permeating pet odors and allergy-causing dander, saving you money and the occasional embarrassing explanation as to why your guest room carpet smells distinctly of dog.

Storage is a breeze with the Hoover UH70210 – its unique Folding Handle reduces its height and allows you to store it in relatively small spaces. The 27-foot long cable and 96 inch hose enable you to clean entire rooms without having to unplug cables or strain to reach small spaces. The Hoover UH70210 also has a headlight so you can scope out any possible mess in darker spaces.

No need to spend ages rewinding the lead – simply tap the cable pedal and it will gently retract itself into a neat storage compartment. The manufacturers also included a No-Scuff bumper to protect your floors and furniture when you’re in a rush to clean before important meetings or Great-Auntie’s unexpected visit.

Pet hair on furniture is a nightmare – let the air-powered pet hair hand tool ease your fears! The rubber blades gather up the hair quickly and suction carries it away. This means that you’ll spend less time cleaning the blades and more time ridding the furniture of your pooch’s latest hair deposits. The Hoover UH70210 also comes with a 12″ extension wand, crevice tool and pet upholstery tool to give your cleaning spree an extra kick.

The first time I used this vacuum it found so much pet hair and dust that I had to empty it a couple of times.

I’m able to vacuum my entire apartment in about half the time it took me with my old vacuum. It also cleans better so you don’t have to go over the same spot a million times.

I’ve been impressed with how well this vacuum picks stuff up close to the wall- including cat litter. The hand tools are a joy to use I love the pet tools- this is the first time my couch has EVER been free of pet hair outside of taking the covers off all the cushions and washing them…(read more here: Hoover UH70210 Review)”

Hoover UH70210 Features Overview:

 

alt tagThose of us who live in apartments or small houses know how frustrating it can be to clean floors in awkward spaces. We don’t need bulky vacuums taking up what little space w e have. What we need is a vacuum that is lightweight, compact and easy to store. The Dirt Devil Dynamite M084650RED is exactly what you’ve been looking for – a 7-amp motor with all the power and attitude of a 12-amp. With more than 100 five star ratings on amazon, it’s definitely worth the few minutes you’ll spend checking out the rest of this page!

Dirt Devil Dynamite M084650RED Features & Functionality

(Back to Top)

Let’s take a look at some of the reasons why the Dirt Devil Dynamite M084650RED is so popular

The Dirt Devil Dynamite M084650RED weighs shockingly little for such a powerful little vacuum – just under nine pounds! Definitely enough to make vacuuming easy instead of a back-breaking chore. This minimal carrying weight makes this particular vacuum ideal for those who don’t want to spend their time lugging huge pieces of cleaning equipment around the house. The Dynamite’s nifty little handle also telescopes down to 31 inches inches in height, making storage even more of a breeze.

No need to constantly adjust height settings with this dynamo – it does it automatically, ensuring the most efficient clean for all your floors, regardless of their surface. The Dynamite’s unique scuff guard also ensures that your more delicate hardwood flooring isn’t at risk of being scratched or abraded during those rushed cleans before guests or mother in law arrives!

Another great feature of the Dirt Devil Dynamite M084650RED is the HEPA filtration system – and for a filter system to qualify as such it needs to be able to catch 99.97 % of all particles bigger than 3 micrometers – that’s a lot of dirt and pet dander, folks. Ideal for those of us with allergies or companions of the four-legged variety, not so? And what’s even more phenomenal is that the bagless dirt management system does away with the need for pesky paper filters that explode in miasma of dirt at the most inopportune times – let’s be honest, nobody wants a faceful of dust while trying to clean a floor. Simply empty the plastic receptacle, give the reusable air filters a quick rinse and reattach. No fuss, no mess – total vacuuming nirvana.

The Dynamite’s powerful suction and motorized brushroll lift away deeply ingrained dirt with ease, and the 48 inch stretch hose allows you to reach those awkward little corners without breaking a sweat – and with an ideal cord length of 25 feet, one could easily clean an entire room without having to repeatedly unplug the unit itself. There’s also a drastically reduced chance that you’ll trip over a suspended cord with this amount of cable available to you.

The people at Dirt Devil were clearly keeping you in mind when discussing the actual assembly of the Dynamite – absolutely no tools necessary when putting together the vacuum itself. Not only is the Dynamite easy to use and powerful for its size – it also comes with an extension wand, which increases the hose length to a whopping 60 inches -  and the dust brush and crevice tool ensure the greatest cleaning efficiency when it comes to making your home look great, without skimping out on the difficult bits.

Hoover asked their customers what they wanted in a vacuum cleaner and the Windtunnel T-series were designed to meet these needs and wants.  The customers wanted a vacuum cleaner that’s lightweight,  easy to store, good-looking, affordable, low maintenance with superior cleaning power.

Hoover UH70120 Features & Functionality

The Hoover UH70120 vacuum cleaner makes use of patented WindTunnel technology, which removes the grime embedded into your carpet by utilizing three individual suction channels to lift deeply ingrained dirt. This little marvel of engineering minimizes the amount of dirt being thrown back onto your carpet by means of these three separate channels.  This ensures that you needn’t vacuum any particular section of carpet over and over again.  The dirt and debris ends up in the dirt cup, not scattered back onto the carpet.  Any vacuum can suck dirt out of your carpet, but the Hoover UH70120 vacuum actually scrubs it out of the very fibers.

Sound good?

It gets better.

The folks at Hoover positioned the On/Off button of the T-series at your fingertips. No more scrabbling frantically to find the power switch when the phone starts to ring.

The Hoover UH70120 also has a system check indicator, so you know exactly when it’s time to give your vacuum filter a quick clean.  And the best part about cleaning the filter?  It’s so simple!  All you have to do is run the filter through water and air dry it. Not difficult in the slightest.

Pets? Pollen? No need to worry about those – the permanent HEPA filtration system (or High-Efficiency Particulate Air filter to those of us without the complex degrees) traps these pesky allergens within the filter. Incidentally, to qualify as a HEPA filter system, an air filter must be able to trap 99.97% of all particles bigger than 3 micrometers from the air flowing through it. Impressive, not so? The Dual-Stage Cyclonic Filtration also ensures that dirt is separated more efficiently. The air that is passing through the vacuum is therefore made cleaner, cutting your filter maintenance time considerably.  This is also good news for those of us who suffer from allergies.

The Hoover UH70120 has a 5-level adjustable carpet height setting, to ensure you don’t run the risk of pulling threads in any of your carpets, including the Persian mum gave you last Christmas. This means that the Hoover UH70120 is able to get up close and personal with the dirt on your more compact carpets instead of hovering just above it. It also means that your Hoover UH70120 will clean effectively on all floor types.

Tired of fishing in the vacuum head for those annoying clumps of unidentifiable detritus that always seem to be winding themselves around the rollers? Worry no further. The Easy Belt Change System lets you access the brush roll with a simple flip of two levers.  And you needn’t cringe at the thought of feeling blindly for stray hairs and unknown fibers, because the Hoover UH70120 T-series has a Brush View Window that enables you to see what you’re cleaning out the rollers before you reach for them.

The Hoover UH70120 vacuum head also has a useful scuff-preventing bumper to protect your walls and furniture when you’re on a vacuuming marathon.

You needn’t ever break a sweat rolling up the vacuum lead, either. The 27-foot-long cord retracts at the gentle tap of a pedal, rewinding inside its own little compartment, eliminating the need to wrap it around any part of the vacuum itself.

Do your back a huge favour and let it enjoy the ease with which you can carry the T-series up your stairs. The Hoover’s lightweight, 44”H by 13.5”W frame ensures that you don’t put unnecessary stress on your spine, and the handle is conveniently located on top of the dirt cup, making it easy to carry around.

Talking about the dirt cup.  The Hoover UH70120 uses bagless technology which means no bags to buy and low maintenance as emptying out the dirt cup  up is quick and easy.

I did a test and used my old vacuum on a rug we just bought 5 months ago, and then used this new Hoover.  Vacuumed with the old one, with a brand new bag in it…ok. Vacuumed with the Hoover, OMG!!! Where was all that dirt/dust/hair hiding??? It had half a canister full of who knows what.

I have never been so excited to vacuum before! Oh and the retracable cord is super. I didn’t think I’d really care about it, but you literally have the cord put away in about 5 seconds, no more winding!..(read more here: Hoover UH70120 Review)”

The Neato XV-11 is a new generation robotic vacuum cleaner that was released towards the end of 2009.  It boasts the most powerful vacuum with the strongest suction as well as the largest dustbin of all robotic vacuums on the market today. It was designed to be a true vacuum, not a floor sweeping robot or a “sweeper-vac” and its suction power can be compared to that of any upright vacuum. The XV-11 cleans with a rotating silicon brush ensuring that hair strands end up in the dustbin and not around the brush.

Using the Neato is as simple as 123.  Once fully charged, simply put it on the floor, press the orange start button twice and off it goes.

Unlike all its predecessors, the Neato XV-11 is not a round robot vacuum.  It’s round at the back but flat in the front.  It is 13 in (33 cm) wide, 12.5 in (31.8 cm) long and 4 in (10.2 cm) high and weighs 9 pounds (5.9 kg).

Pros & Cons

The Neato XV-11 uses a technology called Room Positioning System, RPS, to navigate its way around the house.  It has a laser that rotates 360 degrees and rapidly scans the room.  It measures precise distances to the walls and any objects in the room.  The Neato then creates a detailed and very accurate map of the room.  It now knows the exact position and dimensions of all obstacles as well as any doorways.

The Neato cleans one room at a time.  Once a room is scanned and mapped, it starts off cleaning the perimeter.  It then continues to clean in methodical straight overlapping lines, similar to how a human would vacuum.  It knows precisely where every obstacle is and will not bump into it but will carefully clean around it.  It also knows where the doorway is but won’t leave the room until the cleaning is complete.

The Neato won’t fall down stairways.  It has cliff sensors that detect the stairs.  It will clean up to the ledge and then back away.

If the XV-11′s power runs low, it will return to the docking station, dock itself and recharge.  Once fully charged, it knows exactly where it left off and will return to that position and resume cleaning.

The Neato XV-11 will continue in this fashion cleaning one room after the next until it has cleaned the whole house.  When the job is done, it will return to its docking station to recharge.

(Back to Top)

2. Neato XV-11 Scheduling

The Neato XV-11 can be operated manually or it can be scheduled to start cleaning every day at a designated time.  This implies that you can schedule it to clean when you are at work, coming home to a freshly vacuumed house.

(Back to Top)

3. Neato XV-11 Maintenance

The Neato is a very low maintence robotic vacuum.  With its strong suction, the Neato gets all the dust, debris and hair in the dusbin and not around the brush.  The only maintenance required is to empty the dustbin when it is full.

Overall, this is the best investment I’ve made in cleaning my house. I have two cats who shed a lot and I hadn’t run the vacuum in 6-8 weeks before I bought this thing. After 3 passes it looked as good as if I had used a real vacuum. If I run it daily which I do, it looks fresh everyday. This thing does a great job getting the lose cat hair on the hardwoods as well (not blowing it around like some vacs do)…(read more here: Neato XV-11 Review)”

In all the Neato XV-11 definitely deserves a five star rating. It performs as promised and is fascinating to watch as it goes through its paces. Once you tire of this, it’s a workhorse suited to independently clean a home. It sounds like several other reviewers may have had QC-related issues early on, but my unit bought about a month after release seems problem-free. While somewhat expensive, if it can continue working as it has, the Neato XV-11 will provide a lot of value by independently keeping my apartment clean…(read more here: Neato XV-11 Review)”

Neato XV-11 Pros & Cons

(Back to Top)

product name prosPros:

Suction Powerful suction with amazing cleaning ability; Able to clean a ridiculous amount of pet hair and dust from a carpet.

Pet & Human Hair  – NO Problem Hair ends up in the dustbin, not around the brushes.

Low Maintenance Zero maintenance apart from cleaning out the dustbin when it is full.  This is fairly easy, although a bit messy and should be done over a bigger bin.

Scheduling The onboard display is easy to use and scheduling takes about a minute.

Battery Life Is about 60 to 80 minutes depending on the surface it is cleaning; Fully charged it will complete about 600 sq ft floors with thick carpet and about 800 sq ft of floors with wood or rugs; Will dock itself when it runs out of power, recharge and resume and complete the job where left off.

Efficiency It quickly cleans in straight lines according to a floor plan and does not wander randomly around; Although it misses very small parts of the room, coverage is very good; It avoids bumping into furniture; Most reviewers reported that it had no problem returning to the docking station.

product name consCons:

Reflective Surfaces The Neato won’t work if there are any low – less than 4 inches above the floor – reflective surfaces.  Any low windows or mirrors will confuse the Neato’s laser and it will stop working.

Noise There were some complaints about the noise.  The noise level seems to be acceptable when cleaning a carpet but very loud when cleaning hard wood.  The scheduling could be a solution – either schedule it when you go out or schedule it to clean downstairs while the family is sleeping upstairs.

Scheduling Can only schedule 1 cleaning per day for 7 days in advance.

Boundary Marker Some reviewers preferred the Roomba’s lighthouse to the Neato’s magnetic strips.
