New Hoover Line-up

[eureka1998]

Im not really interested in the vacs of today, but sometimes, there is a new one that catches my eye. Has anyone used one of these yet? It is called the Hoover React and it looks pretty cool (albeit definite competition to the Sharks). This is what they look like.

I think the whole 'lift off' or 'lift away'

Started with bissell. Hello. I mean the mid to late 90s bissell plus and lift off

It's sad when a formerly innovative company like Hoover has to resort to copying products of other companies.

Because it isn't Hoover. Hoover US and Hoover UK are long gone, these Chinese companies just own the name.

That is sad but

absolutely true.

Looks like

A Re Badged Shark....Ill keep my 800, 63 or 150!

Hoover, Dirt Devil, Bissell, Sears, and Shark all have 'lift away' models. Now Hoover has an electric hose to be a Powered Lift Away (copying Shark). So glad to see Dyson still innovates and doesn't just copy.

They're not copyihg

They're "cherry Picking".

I could care less about a Shark copy. I would've rather seen the Hoover name go by the wayside completely than the garbage they're cranking out now with TTI at the helm. Sad that Oreck's good name will also be dragged through the dirt....

Now available at Walmart.

These new Hoovers intrigue me greatly. I quite like the clean look of them, especially the perforated chrome shroud at the top of the bin.

I wanted to open up the bin of one of the ones at Walmart to inspect the cyclone assembly, but unfortunately the store has permanently attached all of the bins to each of their respective cleaners!

Agreed. Although TTI has taken control of several companies and only now create garbage vacs, there will sometimes be a new one that catches my eye. I don't think this new React series has gotten bad reviews yet. They've been very positive. Hopefully I'll get the chance to try it someday.
