Product Description
Hoover, Tempo Bagged Upright Vac, Headlight, Deluxe Stretch Hose, 15" Cleaning Width, Includes Deluxe Set Of Attachments.
Amazon.com Review
The Tempo WidePath features a 15-inch cleaning path for super fast vacuuming when you need it the most. Plus, the WidePath cleans indoor air while you vacuum, thanks to an innovative allergen filtration system that traps 100 percent of dust mites, 99.98 percent of ragweed, and common grass pollens for cleaner breathing and fresher air. A powerful, 12 amp motor provides ample suction and doesn't leave anything behind. A brilliant headlight illuminates the cleaning path to ensure thorough vacuuming. Onboard tool storage keeps attachments, such as a dusting brush, furniture nozzle, crevice tool, and two extension wands in close reach. A smaller profile (approximately 33-1/4 by 18-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches) and lighter overall weight makes the Tempo WidePath easy to push, and easier to maneuver around and under furniture, too. And, your purchase is covered by a Hoover one-year warranty. Get a Tempo WidePath, and never get behind on the housework again! --Brian Olson

 Great price, Great vacuum October 13, 2008
I hate all the new bagless vacuums, really! I have cats and none of the vacuums seem to work for long. I wanted an "old fashioned" upright vacuum with a bag. This had good reviews and a good price. Boy, does it having moving power. It practically vacuums on its own. You do have to be extra careful not to run over items that will be easily sucked into the vacuum! It has the power I wanted and actually picks up dirt. I can use it on floors and stairs. The bags aren't expensive and can be easily found at Target, Walmart or online. I use it a lot and it hasn't gotten clogged or lost sucking power as ALL my 4 other bagless vacuums have.
 So cheap you can buy one every year... October 13, 2008
To replace your broken vacuum! I bought this because of the consumer reports rating. It worked great, then it started failing to pick up pet hair and strings from my dogs' rope toys.
I took it apart to clean it as shown in the manual and I replaced the barely used bag and I was back in business.... For a day. I repeated the cleaning steps but my attempts of restoring its past greatness failed.
I'm on Amazon today looking for a new vacuum. This one lasted a little longer than a year.
There always has to be a catch October 12, 2008
Bought the item after reading reviews on Amazon. Our former vacuum (also a Hoover) was pretty old and noisy, so we really didn't notice this one being that much nosier. This vaccum works fine, lots of suction. But, the hose on it was not only too short, there was no wire reinforcements, so it easily collapses. This is obviously the area they scrimped on to be able to offer the unit at such a low price. Unfortunately, if you want the extended hose, which by the way has the wire inserts and is much higher quality, you have to buy from Hoover. It is around $40, almost half the price of the vacuum. Seems to me that they would have been better off including that better, longer hose on the original vacuum, even if it meant upping the price a bit to cover it. They would have had more happy customers. As it is, the hose experience left a bad taste and for the combined money spent, we probably could have purchased a superior product.
 Great suction, easy to assemble October 11, 2008
Ordered Wednesday, arrived the next day. Easy to assemble and has wonderful suction. My old Dirt Devil was easier to use with the attachments but I'm not complaining. This one cost half the price, shipped in a day, took me 5 minutes to assemble and go. I'm thrilled with it............
Great in the begining, then dead after 1.5 years! October 11, 2008
After 1.5 years of light usgage the switch to turn on vacuum started to spark and then nothing worked. Tried taking the entire vacuum apart and could not find the problem. So, if you want this vacuum, just realize that you might have to replace it within 2 years.
