I bought this vacuum on Feb 21, 2005, and it is still going strong after 5 years. In my college years I have lived in several apartments with low quality carpeting. Every time I move, I get allergic reactions like sneezing and running nose. This vacuum eliminates my misery because of its HEPA filter. I just need to keep up with vacuuming every 2 weeks and the symptoms go away. This machine works especially well on carpets because of its carpet beater head that spins and gets the dirt trapped in the fibers. The wand can be extended for reaching a wider area without moving from the spot, and it even goes under the bed with ease. Like other reviewers mentioned, once you have the carpet function turned on, it pulls itself forward so it is a lot less effort to clean the carpets.
I clean and wash the main filter each time the canister is full, and let it dry overnight before next use. I haven't, however, cleaned the exhaust filter, which is becoming clogged and reduces the efficiency of the vacuum. The light blinks to tell you that it is having a hard time pushing air out. Both filters are cleanable and replaceable, but I haven't needed to replace my filters in 5 years.
For people dislike the noise from vacuum machines, this product is nice because it has 3 power settings and you can use the lowest setting for a lot of situations. Even at the highest setting it is quieter than many cheaper vacuums out there.
This vacuum has been through much abuse and is still working very well. You can use it to clean stairs, car seats, and even get rid of spiders and ants and bees that happen to get lost in your home. Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase and it is well worth the price.Get more detail about Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Electronic Bagless, S3765-040.
