Electrolux v. Hoover canister
By Kate C
Since I've spent the past 24 hours (or more) researching vacuums -- and bought two to try out at home, side by side -- I thought I should share my findings with the rest of you.First off, my 23-year-old Hoover canister finally died on me a few weeks ago. I'd had the thing at the shop maybe once for some work, but other than that, it still worked like a charm til the very end. It had a self-propelling power head that roared like a elephant and scared small children and pets, but it but really sucked the dirt in its heyday. It was sort of scary on hardwood, but I made do. After all, it was practically a member of the family -- the same age as my oldest son.So when it died, I knew it would be a hard act to follow. I knew I wanted a canister. To tell you the truth, what I like most are the long wands that I use to clean everything from ceiling fans to air vents to baseboards. The little attachment hoses on the uprights just didn't seem like they'd do the trick. I liked the idea of bagless, though I'd never tried one. The guy who cleans my carpet once a year recommended Dyson. After looking at Dysons, reading reviews and seeing the prices, I decided I didn't want to spend that kind of money.In the end, I decided to test-drive two vacuums: the Electrolux 4101A Ergospace Green Canister ($149 at Costco) and the Hoover MultiCyclonic SH40060 ($149 at Target.) Both sounded great online, so I decided to buy them both, assemble them and do a side-by-side comparison.Bottom line: The Electrolux, cute and "green" as it is, is going back. The Hoover is staying.The Hoover isn't as well made as my 23-year-old dearly departed - that's obvious. But it seems far more solid than the Electrolux. I nearly broke the Electrolux simply trying to unsnap and resnap the filter compartment -- the plastic seems thin (yes, I know it's recycled) and flimsy. I can't imagine it holding up a year -- I'm not sure it will last a month. Same thing with the plastic hose, which also seems flimsy compared to the Hoover. Even the power nozzle-heads (two of them, which I can't imagine wanting to swap out very often) seem sort of cheap. On the plus side, the telescoping wand works very well and is nice and long, the 3-in-1 crevice tool is sort of ingenious once you figure it out (no help from the manual there!) and the motor has variable speeds, which is neat. Another negative: The hot air "exhaust" blows out straight up at you -- I felt like I was in a wind tunnel (a hot wind tunnel) if I got too near the canister.The Hoover, on the other hand, snaps together neatly with lots of clever, well-designed little latches. The bagless design seems very easy to use, and economical. Two filters, both washable. The wand telescopes, not quite as smoothly as the Electrolux, but it's fine (much better than the two-part wand in my old Hoover.) The tools (just two and admittedly not great) store neatly in the rather heavy hose handle. The handle has to be heavy, I guess, because it contains the power switch - which is another big improvement over my old Hoover (and the Electrolux), where the power switch is in the canister, which may be some feet away away from you just when you want it most.But in the end I wanted a vacuum that could clean. So I decided to run each through its paces on my hardwood floor. Fairly dirty and dusty, since as I said, my old Hoover died "a few weeks ago."The Electrolux was first up. It wasn't bad, though the blowing hot air was a bit bothersome. It was quiet and it moved easily along the floor. It's lightweight and easy to pull. But there was one stubborn Christmas tree needle stuck in the baseboard that just wouldn't budge, even though I went over it again and again. Christmas tree needles are my litmus test.So out comes the Hoover, to see what it can do. It's a bit heavy, but feels solid and sturdy in a reassuring way. It's much quieter than my old vacuum. I can actually carry on a conversation while I'm cleaning. I can hear the doorbell ring.And when it gets to the Christmas tree needle -- wooooosh! Gone. Just like that.What was I thinking? Momentarily swayed by a cute green bungee-cord (what's that for, anyway?) and the promise of being green and environmentally correct, I nearly forgot the most important rule of vacuum purchasing. A vacuum needs to vacuum well. I think the Hoover MultiCyclonic and I will have a beautiful life together. And it's sturdy little blue body is growing on me.

Finally a long enough hose!
By Frazzled
I picked this up at Costco for considerably less than I see it advertised elsewhere. I have many unhappy vacuum experiences and thought was just fated to hate the product or spend big bucks. This one is just the ticket for me, on a budget but living in a kingdom of cobwebs and pet hair. I have vaulted ceilings with beams, and this is the first time I have not had to stand on a chair or lift the vacuum canister onto a counter to reach every nook and cranny. Long hose, long cord, very portable, and wow, it REALLY does adjust when you go from bare floor to carpet so that you don't get sucked down onto the carpet. The suction adjuster is easy to use, but I didn't even need it. Love the bare floor setting, which has little stiff brushes that loosen debris that might be a little stuck to the floor. I also have cabinets off the floor with space underneath, and this is the first time i have been able to easily reach all the way under cabinets and furniture with out having to assemble some sort of contraption or get under the furniture. Don't care about headlights, as long as I can get in and out under that couch! The cannister follows smoothly along, and because the hose is so long, I actually pull it less than with my last one--actually everything about it feels smooth. Wand is very easily adjustable and actually is long enough for a tall person to be comfortable. The accessory tool is very simplistic, but it does fit in the vacuum and I always seems to lose all those tools anyway. For someone who is happy with just a small round brush and a crevice tool, it's fine. If you want a lot of fancy accessories, you'll need to purchase them separately or look elsewhere. I have mostly bare floors, so I can't speak to its performance on carpet. But I'm happy to not have to contort to hold down the corners of area rugs to vacuum over them. I still hate vacuuming, but at least I am not having ranting fits about how much I hate the tool during the process.Down side: The filster is supposedly washable, not sure about that. The bags are pretty small, but that is the trade off for having the canister be very portable. I have't bought any bags, but I may spend a fortune on them.

A New Cannister Vacuum Has Arrived In Town
By Bob R.
Just bought this baby at Costco. Overall, I rank it very good, and I've been looking for a long time for a cannister vac. worth buying -- most of them look like they should be marketed thru Toys-R-Us. And, guess what, it's made in Hungary - big surprise - and well made at that. It's well engineered and very powerful. Has a long vac. hose and a long, retractible power cord. The machine also runs fairly quiet. And, it has a continuously variable, motor speed control for varying the degree of vacuuming power - something I've never seen in a vacuum.It does require three filters to operate: A rather smallish conventional bag on the intake side, a flat rectangular filter on the exhaust side, and a "motor filter" whose purpose I have yet to ascertain. These are collectively hyped as "HEPA" filtration, a term that has been misused to the point of being utterly meaningless. Be prepared to spend money for filters.By way of accessories, it comes with two floor vac nozzles, and little else. If you want any other decent acc.'s, you will have to buy them separately (not an easy or inexpensive task). It does include some sort of small "multi-purpose" tool which is basically a throw-away. But, the hoses do take standard 1 1/4" acc.'s.About the manual: It has the obligatory (and utterly worthless) safety warnings. It is written in three languages (one of which is English). The diagrams and the fine print are almost unreadable - which is a big drawback, since, with three filters to change, and lots of neat little features, a nice big foldable instruction sheet would be much easier to use.On the whole, however, it definitely fills a market niche for a reasonably well made, utilitarian cannister vac. I will probably buy another one as a spare.
