My Newest Acquisition... Let the Bashing Begin!!

Alright, alright... I know it's reputation and I know most people hate it, but I love it because it is so hated as well as because it's innovative. I picked this one up from Goodwill for $5 and using a parts machine from my local vacuum shop who's owner "Would never sell another one of those pieces of s&*t so get it the f%#k out of my store!", I took two mediocre and made one good one. It works perfectly and actually cleans OK, not great, but pretty good.

Not bad

But certainly not the best, but for $5 you can't beat that.

Hoover had a recall

on the Brush Rolls for this model . The replaceable brush rollers have metal end caps instead of plastic , solved the melting problem.I have two Brand new Turbo Power Top of the line Vacuum Shop models left over from when I owned my store. I love the choice that they included a Bagged container an a bagless container with the vacuum .

Bagged or Bagless

That's interesting. I also just picked up a Bosch upright BUH11700 (I think) and it has a bagless or bagged bin so I can use either or which is cool.

Nice find

I used to have one until the switch broke. It cleaned very well, though!

I have one in silver, its both, it also works pretty well, Im actually surprised its lasted 3 years lol. When I had the dog Id use it bagless in the spring and fall when she would shed ALOT, and the bag the rest of the year. Im not a fan of bagless at all but i did like having the option of having either or in the same vacuum.

i own

the recalled plastic end cap on the brushroll model,it works well but it's missing the bag cup lid and of course the brushroll end caps have melted .

I have some parts from one if you'd like, including the dust bin lid and three good brush rolls.

Bagged/Bagless mode

Neat idea! I have the new style Savvy & LOVE the way you can choose to clean bagged or bagless.
