Shop For Hoover U5140-900 Tempo Widepath Bagged Upright Vacuum


This was a value at $68. I too read all the reviews before making a purchase. I agree with critics who site loudness, belt breakage and short hose as issues. 1) This is the loudest vacuum I've ever heard. However, for the price, I can live with it. 2). Belt breaks every single time I accidentally suck up a sock or the corner of a rug. Again, for the value, I'm willing to replace the belt every so often. It is not hard and belts are about $1.50 each. 3). The hose is the part that pisses me off. It is so short that in order to do the ceiling corners, I have to lift it off the ground with one hand and vacuum with the other. Also, the connector at the base of the vacuum to the hose is ridiculous. Get some duct tape out and affix the hose, or else you will be popping that thing off all the time. Also, the attachments do not stay attached to the machine. I keep mine on the closet shelf.

I would buy this again. The price can't be beat and for that price, I could afford a vacuum for all three levels of our house. The value goes beyond the price in that the machine really picks up well. It really SUCKS! And in the case of your vacuum, that's a good thing.
