Comment:
In 6 months it has been back to the shop two times for the same problem. My repair person says he sees a lot of these, and this is in a rural area.<br />It's a defective design prone to shorting out.
How long have you owned it:
Three-to-six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
I have a small condo apartment. I bought the Wind Tunnel on a recommendation from a usually reliable hardware store owner. Within a month, I could no longer push the vacuum across the floor. I just finished checking inside, and the main belt was nearly sheared in half. It was difficult to put it back on. So I just dumped it out back. Hoover has really gone down the drain in quality, and CR should do a serious reassessment of the entire brand.
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
