Description of Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Electronic Bagless, S3765-040WindTunnel Technology uses computer designed air ducts to provide a powerful dual air stream to enhance dirt pick up capabilities. The WindTunnel design also reduces the scattering of debris, common to many ordinary canisters. The WindTunnel Bagless Power Nozzle Canister with Electronic finger-touch variable speed control and remote fingertip brush roll and power on/off switches picks up more dirt than any other canister...period! Hoover?s canister stands out for its design-savvy looks, not to mention the fact that it cleans with powerful WindTunnel technology. Dirt particles are cleverly ducted away from the spinning agitators to ensure they?re captured in the bagless dirt cup and not sent back out onto the carpet. The HEPA filter traps minute allergen particles and conveniently removes for cleaning. Large, soft wheels allow the compact 12-amp vacuum--which looks like it could play a robot extra in Star Wars--to maneuver easily. Best of all, the handgrip features electronic control buttons for power on and off, variable suction (allowing smooth transition from wood floors to area rugs), and agitator action speed for carpets. Tools are easily attached to the telescoping wand, making it a snap to switch from cleaning floors to using drape and upholstery tools. A one-year warranty covers this unique vacuum against defects.
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Electronic Bagless, S3765-040Customer Review: Another Winner from Hoover! (I th0ought, at first) Summary: 5 Stars
UPDATED REVIEW: AT FIRST I LIKED THIS VACUUM, BUT AFTER HAVING TO TAKE APART THE POWER HEAD AND PUT THE BELT BACK ON DOZENS OF TIMES EACH & EVERY TIME I USED IT, I CALLED HOOVER AND THEY SENT ME A REPLACEMENT MOTOR AND SOME NEW BELTS - APPARENTLY THEY HAD A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH BELTS COMING OFF, AND THE WAY THE MOTOR SHAFT WAS GROUND WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. WELL, I INSTALLED THE NEW MOTOR AND A NEW BELT AND IT SEEMED TO WORK OK FOR A SHORT TIME. (ABOUT 3 USES!) TODAY I TRIED TO VACUUM MY BEDROOM, AND NOTICED THAT THE BRUSH WASN'T TURNING EXCEPT WHEN I LIFTED IT FROM THE CARPET! THE BELT NO LONGER SLINGS OFF, IT JUST GETS BURNT UP BY THE MOTOR SHAFT SPINNING ALOT FASTER THAN THE BELT/BRUSH CAN MOVE. I AM GOING TO TRY TO REPAIR THE BEARINGS IN THE 30 YEAR OLD HOOVER THAT I STILL HAVE (THAT STILL RUNS REAL GOOD) SO I CAN VACUUM MY BEDROOM. BETWEEN HAVING TO EMPTY THE TINY DUST CUP EVERY 2 MINUTES (MAYBE) AND THE LOUSY, USELESS POWER HEAD, I REALLY WISH I WOULD HAVE SENT THIS STUPID & USELESS MACHINE BACK AND GOT A REFUND!THIS VACUUM IS OK EXCEPT FOR THE HALF-PINT DUST CUP, BUT THE POWER HEAD DESIGN IS TOTAL JUNK, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
I bought this Hoover to replace a Eureka upright bagless that did little but "wind up" dog fur around the brush bearings! I spent more time unwinding Queenie's fur from the brush than I did vacuuming. This Hoover cannister found dirt in my bedroom carpet that the Eureka never even thought about. I did have to unwind some Queenie fur from the brush, but not like the other one. I didn't have to completely disassemble the darn thing in order to get the fur off. Queenie's fur is about 4" to 6" long, so there's no vacuum with a rotating brush that isn't "hampered" by her hair. I also have an old Hoover Spirit bagger cannister vacuum that is at least 20 years old and still works great. I use it for small jobs like cleaning my window A/C filters and electronic equipment. This is why I went with another (reliable) Hoover. The only drawback that I can see with this new Hoover is that the "stalk" or "wand" has plastic parts which makes the thing feel kind of flexible when vacuuming. My old cannister is a "tank", but nobody makes things as tough as they used to 20 years ago! The dirt cup fills up fast, but I think that once I get the dirt out of my carpet that the other vacuums were missing, it will seem to be a lot bigger! I bet I got 10 pounds of dirt & sand out of my carpet, and that's only about a 20 square foot section, as I've yet to move all the furniture! I think that this vacuum is well worth the money, and hopefully, with careful use, it will provide as many years of service as my other Hoover has. I also like the variable suction feature. I have a vacuum attachment called a "Pet-Vac" that is kind of a fur trap with a real long hose that has a rubber fingered fur shedding brush. I use it to de-fur my doggies. When I tried to use it before, my other vacuum had too much suction and caused the "filter ball" inside the Pet-Vac to stick to the top and stop the air flow. The middle setting on this new Hoover is purr-fect, as it provides sufficient suction for the Pet-Vac to function, but doesn't make the ball suck to the top and mess things up! I say "BUY ONE"!! SEE REVISED REVIEW ABOVE - THE POWER HEAD IS USELESS!!!
