 good vaccum April 29, 2006
R. Law (New York, NY)
50 out of 51 found this review helpful
I bought this after my bagless needed the filter changed. After checking the price of the replacement of 2 filter. i decided to buy a new bagged vaccum as the 2 filters will cost up to $50. It's about the price of a new one!!! Then i checked the consumer report and found this U5140-900. It is light and powerful. a decent vaccum which is exactly what i want. It is even quieter than my old one. After i tried the bagless' messy way of emptying the waste bucket. i far prefect to go back to bagged vaccum. I will never use bagless again.
 DOES NOT WORK ON BARE FLOORS! July 17, 2007

If you are buying this to use on carpet than it does an OK job. If you are buying this to use on wood floors or any other type of bare floors, it DOES NOT WORK! I've tried contacting Hoover and they don't care and will do nothing to help me. I am stuck with a vacuum that doesn't do what it says it's supposed to do. I took it in for service and there is nothing wrong with it. It just doesn't do what it is advertised to do! False advertisement. After dealing with the people at the Hoover service center, I can honestly say that I will NEVER purchase another Hoover product again! Customer service alone helped me make that decision. Don't buy Hoover.
 Good vacuum, great value January 24, 2007

I bought this vacuum for my wife to replace an aging no frills machine. I didn't want to go with a bag-less model, as I have heard too many negative things about these. For around $70, this is an excellent, brand name (Hoover)(presumably American made, but now days, who knows? It has a powerful suction motor, which can be used as a blower by reversing the hose configuration. Comes with all the commonly used attachments. It also has a non-HEPA, washable secondary filter, a good alternative for the models with expensive disposable HEPA filters. Height adjustments easy and satisfactory. Easy to replace "Y" type bag (not hard to find at many retail stores). Headlight a plus. Comes with built in "bag full" indicator, a nice convenience that saves having to take the front hatch off frequently to check the bag. (The bag hatch, BTY, is easily removed and replaced.) The motor could be a little quieter, but I do not consider this to be a major flaw. Overall, a well made machine, with just the right number of frills, and a good value for the price.
Why I chose this model March 15, 2006

In chosing this model I had to keep in mind that living in Florida I would need an inexpensive enough product to deal with daily tracking in of sandy dirt. I find this model able to care for this task exceptionally well. It is used daily and my slightly soiled carpets look as though I've had them cleaned. I chose a bagged model because I did not mind changing bags and I believe by using a bagless daily I would be spending more replacing filters than buying bags. In daily vacuuming I would be constantly emptying the container. I would highly recommend this product and will replace with an identical model as the need arises.
Great Vacuum for the Price! July 18, 2006

I read the Consumer Reports for the Tempo and also the Amazon.com reviews first and then tried to buy from a store in a big city but could not find it. Bought thru amazon.com for a total of $70.00. After an easy installation of the handle to the base of the vacuum I was set to go! This puppy is a little louder but it sucks so good on the carpet that the machine almost seems like a Self-Propelled model I used to have. On shorter pile carpet like Berber, it easily moves forward with little pushing. It comes with 2 allergy Type 'Y' bags. But I bought the cheaper type 'A' bag which is longer than the Y bag. All I did was fold over the top and bottom of the A bag and staple it to be the same size as the Y bag. Save some $$ this way as 2 Y bags cost $9.99 I think.
Highly recommend. Hoover Tempo Widepath.
