The vacuum cleaner that would sweep you: Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum Review

A vacuum cleaner is the best cleaning tool for homes. It is highly convenient, especially if you have work. However, the price of vacuum cleaners is slowly rising. Hence, it is becoming a challenge to acquire a vacuum cleaner that is both of high quality and affordable price.

But worry no more since the Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum is now here for you. This vacuum cleaner will surely amaze you not only because of its affordable price but also because of its superior cleaning performance and exceptional features.

What is a Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum?

Hoover is an established brand when it comes to the cleaning industry. They have been present for a lot of years. Through these years, they continuously reinvented themselves to stay relevant. Through constant innovation and research, they managed to conquer every nook and cranny of every home. As part of their development, they produced the Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum.

The Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum, or more specifically, the Tempo model, is a budget-friendly upright vacuum. This vacuum cleaner could be your next cleaning companion if you are looking to have an amazing upright, but you have a limited budget. Why? Because despite its lower price, its performance is still exceptionally great on bare floors. It is also flexible as it also has a reliable performance on both low and high carpets.

Design and Features

This upright Vacuum comes in a cool shade and design. All in all, the design is great. It is simple yet sleek. It is made of plastic construction, so it might appear as something less sturdy, but in actuality, it feels solid except for the minute parts, which appear to be too flimsy, like the cover of the dust bin. It is relatively easy to assemble as well since users only need to attach the handle to the main body by using only one screw and then attach the dirtbag compartment.

This vacuum cleaner prioritized usability above aesthetics, so naturally, other models are more beautiful. Still, it is not to be scoffed at despite that. Furthermore, the simple design of the Hoover WindTunnel bagged Vacuum makes it easier to maintain, hence, a lower expense. However, costs will be higher on the side of parts since they require frequent replacement.

In addition, the features of this upright cleaning tool are also reliable. They are not the most advanced features, which are highly reasonable given the budget-friendly price. However, they are good enough for cleaning bare floors, pet hairs, stairs, and carpets. Some of the features present in Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum are a HEPA filter, multi-floor adjustment capability, powerful suction, long cord, and a variety of accessories and extra tools.

Functions

This upright Vacuum is what you can say the Vacuum that is not the best but enough to clean your mess. The affordability, therefore, made it a little hard for great functions to be added. Hence, its functions are identical to the ones in the market, albeit with stronger suction and better design.

As stated in the first part of the article, Hoover WindTunnel bagged Vacuum (Tempo) can be used on different floor types except for cleaning your cars. So, let's see how it fares on these surfaces.

1. Bare floors

The strong suction of Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum helped it to have a good performance on bare floors. On this surface, it can clean both small and large debris, from dust to cereals. Its HEPA filter also makes dealing with the bulky pet hair caused by the shedding of our pets easier. And while doing its job, the dirtbag will be slowly filled up without any issue.

2. Hardwood

The brushroll of this upright Vacuum can be turned off when you are cleaning hardwood floors. This feature is highly commendable as it lets you clean the hardwood surface without worrying that you might scratch it.

3. Carpets (Low pile and High pile)

Hoover WindTunnel bagged Vacuum has a great performance on carpeted surfaces. The pet hairs are easily dealt with. Moreover, it has a satisfactory performance when it comes to cleaning finer particles like dust though   it struggles a little bit when it comes to bigger debris as they sometimes get stuck on the inside of the hose.

4. Stairs

Uprights are never suited for stair cleaning and the Hoover WindTunnel bagged Vacuum is not an exception to that. Its weight and size make it hard for the user to carry and maneuver it while cleaning the stairs. Despite this, its semi-detachable feature (semi-handheld configuration) could somewhat solve this though the user will suffer a little bit with its short hose length.

Review of Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum (Tempo)

Here are some of the feedback and review from some customers who bought the Hoover WindTunnel Bagged Vacuum (Tempo)

• "It's not the fanciest nor the most satisfying vacuum cleaner since you don't see the dirt flowing through clear plastic, but this thing is undoubtedly a rockstar. Considering the price and the features, people will have a hard time finding equivalent or superior to this one."

• "So glad someone finally made a reliable, versatile, upright bagged vacuum. It is such an easy tool to use. The suction power is equally amazing; it just sucks everything off, be it dirt or dog fur."

• Very Happy with my new vacuum cleaner. I am glad to have picked this one. It is not only affordable but actually does a pretty decent job of cleaning my place.

• I must say, I am very impressed with this new Hoover. I have owned this now for several months, and I am so glad I bought this model. I looked at quite a few and went with this due to the bagged feature and the mention of minimizing BLOWBACK while vacuuming. I loved the idea of filters that can be washed and re-used and the HEPA bags. This is lightweight and has strong suction, and does a fantastic job of cleaning my rugs.
