Consumer Reports recommends that you match the features on a model to the needs you have. Here's
our take on some of the specifications and features that are commonly available on upright vacuum cleaner
models like the WindTunnel T-Series Rewind Bagless UH70110.
Easy on/off:
A switch that's located on the handle or where your foot can activate it is more convenient than one on the body of the vacuum.
Manual-pile adjust:
Lets you adjust the height of the machine to a carpet's pile height to allow for easy movement and thorough cleaning. Adjustments are automatic on some models, but we prefer the more precise manual control afforded by some models.

Tested Model
The Ratings of Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Rewind Bagless UH70120 were applied to untested model Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Rewind Bagless UH70110, which in our judgment is enough alike in its performance, features, and specs that our test results apply to both.
Hoover introduced its first vacuum in 1907 and has established itself as one of the most recognizable brands in America. More recently, Hoover was bought from Whirlpool by TTI Floor Care, the owners of Dirt Devil. Hoover sells a wide variety of uprights at mass-market retailers, with models ranging from as little as $50 to $300. It also makes hand and stick vacuums, canister models (about $80 to $300), deep cleaners, central vacuums, bare-floor cleaners, and an outdoor sweeper, though the company is best known for its uprights.
Features & Specs - Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Rewind Bagless UH70110
Bag Denotes whether the model has a disposable waste bag. A growing number of vacuums, particularly upright models, use a container that can be emptied, eliminating the bag. To capture fine-dirt particles, however, these models must use a filter (such as a HEPA filter) that can need regular cleaning, or replacement. Replacement filters tend to be significantly more expensive than bags. While vacuums with bags may also use filters, the bag acts as a pre-filter that helps to keep the fine-dirt filter cleaner, thus extending its performance until cleaning or replacement. Another caveat: Emptying the dustbin and cleaning a filter can be messy, and handling it may expose you to dust and other allergens.
Bag
No
Brush on/off An on/off switch for the rotating brush lets you stop the brush from rotating when using tools or cleaning bare floors. This helps eliminate scattered dirt on bare floors and reduces the risk of injury if the vacuum tips over during use. It also reduces the risk of damaging a carpet or the finish of a bare floor if the vacuum sits in place at the low-height setting.

Drive belt broke during first use. Contacted Hoover and after several e-mails they indicated they would send out a replacement. After 7 weeks vacuum started shutting off after a few minutes and suction diminished. Replacement belt never arrived and the vacuum has been returned. At least retailer refunded purchase price.

Comment:
The vacuum does a good job on flat carpets but stairs and the use of attachments is not easy and enjoyable. When first connecting hose attachments there is a dust blowback from the vacuum that spews hair and dust around. The cord is too short and is located on the side of the vacuum which means you have to hold the cord while vacuuming or you are in danger of running it over.
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
Very impressed with suction on thick, 1 high carpet. After vacuum, carpet looks like it was just shampoo'd because the suction pull. But, when doing small throw rugs (in backroom or by doorway) vacuum pulls the whole thing in. When using the extention tools, the flexible hose that connects from the vaccum to the brush is built like a slinky. So when you go more than 3-4 feet, it doesn't want to extend easily, and the the vacuum starts to tip. I'll need to get a longer flexible hose for the reach to be longer.
