Hoover WindTunnel Air HEPA Bagless Upright Vacuum: Capture dirt, dust and allergens to create a healthy and clean living space thanks to this vacuum's WindTunnel technology and multicyclonic filtration. Reach tough spots with the telescopic handle.
This was the lightest upright vacuum cleaner I could find. I wanted a light weight cleaner as I have had heavier models in the past and dreaded carrying the item up and down stairs but I didn't want to compromise the cleaning power. Just the bulky nature of the machines makes moving them vertically a challenge, but Hoover eased that problem with this model. On this one, the conveniently placed carrying handle makes moving the vacuum up and down stairs much more efficient. I also love the fact that the filter doesn't need to be replaced, just washed and dried. It saves you some money and time to the store. Also, the debris canister opens from the bottom when emptying which ensures that the majority of debris in the canister is removed.
What's great about it: Easy to operate, lightweight, convenient carrying handle
