This is perhaps the highest rated vacuum cleaner we have had the opportunity to review it is also a pretty recent addition to the vacuum cleaner market. It should be noted however that at this time we found only 23 reviews. But even so, the average review was 5 stars out of 5 with the machine getting high marks for power, maneuverability, lightweight construction, and a 6-year warranty. There is very little negative written about the Hoover UH30010COM. [REF Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2009]
What are Consumer's Saying? Pros Cons
The Hoover UH30010COM is a bagged vacuum cleaner. It does not use a dirt-container like many of the bagless machines today, but instead uses a disposable bag. There is a long standing debate about bagged or bagless vacuum cleaners being better bagged tend to make it easier to dispose of the collected dirt and it is cleaner to throw away the bag and put a new one in. Bagless do not require purchasing and throwing away bags but it should be noted that they often have filters that need to be maintained or replaced and they rely on seals to prevent the dirt-container from leaking.
HEPA The Hoover UH30010COM Platinum also utlizes a HEPA filter. What is a HEPA filter? HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air and is a filter that removes 99.97% of all airborne particulates of 0.3 microns or larger that pass through it. When considering a HEPA vacuum cleaner it is important that the unit passes ALL intake air through the HEPA filter prior to exhausting it otherwise particulate matter is bypassing the filter and being introduced back into the surrounding environment. HEPA filtration is particularly popular with allergy sufferers. This vacuum cleaner has a Type Q upright HEPA bag (for the upright), and a Type I portable canister HEPA bag (for the included canister).
Features & Accessories This vacuum cleaner features a respectably powerful 12 amp motor (many of the vacuums today have a 12 amp motor but some do not). It uses the Hoover Windtunnel Technology which, according to Hoover, means that it lifts and traps dirt very efficiently without any scattering. There are illuminated fingertip controls for on and off as well as two different speed settings. There is also a light to indicate when the bag needs to be changed. It also has a 14 inch wide nozzle and automatic height adjustment. It weighs less than 12 lbs and measures 15.5 x 13 x 45 inches. In addition, this machine has a supplementary canister with a carrying strap and a 25 foot cord. The canister carries the crevice and brush attachments on board. There are quite a few more features on this vacuum as well. See total list below: Accessories:
