Amazon.com Review
The Tempo WidePath features a 15-inch cleaning path for super fast vacuuming when you need it the most. Plus, the WidePath cleans indoor air while you vacuum, thanks to an innovative allergen filtration system that traps 100 percent of dust mites, 99.98 percent of ragweed, and common grass pollens for cleaner breathing and fresher air. A powerful, 12 amp motor provides ample suction and doesn’t leave anything behind. A brilliant headlight illuminates the cleaning path to ensure thorough vacuuming. Onboard tool storage keeps attachments, such as a dusting brush, furniture nozzle, crevice tool, and two extension wands in close reach. A smaller profile (approximately 33-1/4 by 18-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches) and lighter overall weight makes the Tempo WidePath easy to push, and easier to maneuver around and under furniture, too. And, your purchase is covered by a Hoover one-year warranty. Get a Tempo WidePath, and never get behind on the housework again! –Brian Olson

Lots of power, great value!
This vacuum has really powerful suction…wouldn’t recommend using it on hooked rugs since it tends to pull up the fibers. It’s easy to maneuver. The only cons being the on/off switch and the short extension hose. The switch is not located on the handle, but below it on the left. When using the attachments, the hose doesn’t stretch far enough, which causes the vacuum to tilt over. These inconveniences aside, the vacuum, especially at this price, does a great job of deep-cleaning the carpet. I would definitely recommend it…and Amazon.

WOW!!
This machine is awesome!! I’ve purchased two. The first one was last year. I bought it for my daughter in college. At that time I was attracted by price and looks. My daughter told me later that it was a great vacuum, so this year when I was looking for a machine for my shop/garage I looked no further than this Hoover! I read a few of the reviews and just about got scared off, but glad I didn’t. It works great! I use it for vacuuming all the mats in the shop and garage and I also use it on the concrete floor (floor has been treated with a clear sealer). I have had no problems at all, nor has my daughter. I have a woodworking shop and have a wall mounted vac for everything above the floor and this gem takes excellent care of that! So do not hesitate to get this machine. Its the best $60. I’ve ever spent.
PS: Its rated a Best Buy by Consumer Reports and I can see why!

all pluses
Inexpensive…lots of suction…AND easy to push and pull. Plus this little gem is by all standards a great purchase. If there is any issue to come with belts and bags, I’ll just keep a supply. Highly recommend this one.
