    Hoover Platinum Bagged Upright

    Platinum Bagless I have the Platinum bagless and it is surprisingly quiet. In fact, shockingly so. I thought it would be a real scream machine. Though it's made of plastic, I think its build quality is pretty decent. The dirt chamber slides in and out with no effort or forcing at all (unlike...

    Electrolux user manual
