Product Reviews

Removing more dirt from carpet in a single pass than other bagless and cyclonic uprights, this powerful vacuum cleaner combines Windtunnel Technology and multi-stage cyclonic filtration to ensure fast, efficient results. More specifically, the unit's Windtunnel Technology supplies three distinct air tunnels to lift and remove dirt from carpets, preventing it from scattering back onto clean floors, while its advanced multi-cyclonic filtration system helps maintain a clean-air intake for longer filter life and consistent suction when cleaning. Its filter also provides HEPA media that traps 99.97-percent of dirt, dust, pollens, and other airborne allergens down to 0.3 microns in size for cleaner indoor air. Furthermore, the thoughtfully designed vacuum cleaner comes equipped with intuitive LED controls located in the handle for simple one-touch height adjustment or for turning the unit on or off. Onboard tools consist of a stretch hose, extension wand, crevice tool, dusting brush, and an upholstery tool for thorough above-floor cleaning throughout the house. Other highlights include a comfortable D-shaped handle, a long power cord for uninterrupted cleaning, and a built-in reminder for when the lifetime washable filter needs cleaning. The bagless upright vacuum cleaner measures 15-8/9 by 13-8/9 by 43-1/2 inches and carries a six-year limited warranty.

This vacuum sucks!!
Pardon the vacuum pun, but really, this vacuum sucks... in the best way possible!

I ordered this vacuum on the recommendation of a friend who raved about the "sucking power" of this vacuum. I was in the market for a vacuum but never planned to spend quite so much, but her raving testimonial was quite compelling. I am thrilled that I took her advice because this vacuum is amazing!

I bought this vacuum to replace the two other dinosaur vacuums in my house. One was an old upright that used those old fashioned bags. Hair always tangled up in the belt. It was awful. The other was a bagless upright. Both did an OK job of picking up small surface debris, but I could pass that vacuum over and over and over again and still miss stubborn clingy lint or the small scoopable kitty litter granules. I had all but given up on ever having clean carpet again near the litterbox.

One of the first areas I used the Hoover UH70010 Platinum Collection Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum was on that stubborn litterbox area, and without sounding mellow-dramatic, it was absolutely amazing to see how well it picked up those small granules! One pass got 95% of them, and by the second or third pass, my carpet looked brand new again. I would go over that area 10 times with my old vacs and maybe pick up 25% of the litter, so the performance of this vacuum FAR surpassed my expectations!

In addition to the cat and her aforementioned litterbox, I have two shedding dogs in my house, and when I emptied the container, I had what seemed like an entire extra animal's worth of hair collected. Gross, I know, but it seems there is no challenge too big for this vacuum.

I will note that there are two very similar models to this vacuum: the UH70010 and the UH70015. They are the exact same vacuum in terms of power and appearance, but the UH70015 has an "clean/dirty" indicator light that uses some kind of sensor technology to tell you if your carpet is actually clean. My friend purchased that model and told me she drives herself crazy going over and over and over an area to get the "clean" light to appear. This UH70010 model does not have that indicator light. At Amazon.com, it appears the prices of these two models is about equal at around $399, but I found a steal on the UH70010 for $320 at another online retail site. To me, that light was not worth the extra $80, but if it is important to you, be careful about which model you order.

Regardless of which model you choose, I am certain you will be pleased with this vacuum's performance. It really is an outstanding vacuum.

If cost is a concern, I urge you to consider the value of the lifetime filters and the manufacturer's 6 year warranty. If you have to replace your lesser costing vaccums more frequently, you really might as well spring for a better performing and longer lasting vacuum. Your carpets will look better, and you may even save money in the long run.

Best Vaccum I've Ever Owned
The title of my review says it all. Glad I didn't go with Dyson.
