Vacuum Cleaner

Perfect for deep cleaning without excessive strain, the self-propelled Hoover WindTunnel Ultra upright takes charge of its own locomotion both coming and going. In addition, Hoovers WindTunnel technology creates a powerful double air path for maximum suction and cleaning. The vacuum even provides feedback on cleaning progress with the Embedded Dirt Finder--a feature that scans the floor for debris, signaling you if theres still dirt to be picked up. You can operate the Dirt Finder on a regular setting for your routine cleaning or on a high setting for your deep-cleaning sprees. The WindTunnel Ultra is designed for both bare floors and carpets, with a 15-inch cleaning path and three adjustable nozzle heights to accommodate variation in carpet depth. Dirt collection is bagged using Hoovers Microfiltration system, and a helpful indicator signal keeps you posted on the bags status. A HEPA filter assists the bag, trapping 100 percent of dust mites and 99.98 percent of ragweed and common grass pollens. The vacuum comes handsomely equipped for attachment cleaning with a stretch hose, two extension wands, a crevice tool, an upholstery tool, and a dusting brush all on board. (The Dirt Finder does not work with the attachments.) The most rigorous attachment is a powered hand tool with its own rotating brush roll--great for carpeted stairs and durable upholstery. Other useful elements include quick-release cord hooks, a carrying handle, a headlight, and a view window over the brush roll. Hoover covers the machine with a one-year warranty.

User Reviews about Hoover U6476-900 Self-Propelled WindTunnel Ultra Upright Vacuum Cleaner

I've only had this vacuum for about 2 weeks now. So I can't comment on longevity and durability. But for ease of use, this vacuum is the best. With the self-propelled on it easily glides across the carpet with no effort at all. It is, as others have stated, a bit heavy...I'm guessing mainly because of the extra self-propelled motor. So if you're going to be lugging this up and down steps it may get old. But I assure you once you get it up the steps it's worth the extra weight because of how easy it is to use. -- Short time....but great so far
