Summary: The good and the bad
Comment: Hoover Wind Tunnel S3765
I've just finished using it for the 3rd time, so my opinion is not based on the `fresh-out-of-the-box glow.
Positive observations:
m The main attachment's revolving brush is electronically powered, which makes it superior to those that are suction-powered. Though, it also comes with a smaller suction-powered tool. (I understand, however, that not all models include this suction-powered tool.)
m Has 3 different power settings, which is useful for various surfaces.
m Design is quite simple and logical.
Negative observations:
m The hose connexion does not revolve, which inevitably necessitates the occasional pause to untwist.
m The crevice tool is made of a black plastic that rubs off on walls and other surfaces. Great for those who happen to have black walls. For the other 99.9% of us, not so great.

Summary: Never thought I would love a vacuum more than I do Fantoms until I tried this Hoover.
Comment: I purchased this Hoover because I have a Fantom Fury and while I thought it still worked like new based on what was in the canaster, it was showing signs of its age and litterally falling apart. The mechine still ran like new though. I vacuumed with it and then with this new Hoover and the dirt container of the Hoover was full after doing a small dinning room average size living room and just the smallest hallway. I emptyed the container and fould all sorts of trash. Dust, sand, dog hair, cat hair and a leaf. Then I did my 3 bedrooms and had to empty the canaster twice to get through them. The mechine is so much quieter than most vacuums. The attachments are wonderful, and actually work while being easy to use and switch from floors to attachments and back. I love that all the controls are right at your finger tips and with the touch of a button you can do carpets or hard floors. Plus this model is the deluxe model and Amazon is selling it for $20.00 less than the base model sells for in stores. I was worried about the fact that this Hoover Windtunnel had the filter in the canaster because this usually causes the filter to clog quickly but Hoover designed this mechine to trap the dirt under 2 flaps in the container so only the dirty air gets to the filter. This design really does work. I never thought that I would replace a Fantom with any other brand even if it meant going throught ebay to buy used ones since they are out of business but this Hoover has changed my mind. I absolutly love it and encourage everyone to buy it.

Summary: WOW
Comment: I researched/read MANY reviews for canister vacuums. My husband had an old heavy upright vac that I could bearly lift and was on its last legs. I decided on a canister vac because we have two sets of stairs and was tired of trying to lug the vacuum up and down them. Well, the old vac died right before we had some relatives coming over for dinner and their child has alergies to animals and we have 4 dogs (and 3 boys). So instead of buying from Amazon like I planned I had to run out to Wal-mart real quick and buy this vacuum. I paid $199 for it. I LOVE this vacuum. It is light weight and VERY easy to use. The one brush attachment doesnt work all that well and does fall off easily if you dont cram it on the end of the nozzle. But other than that I was totally amazed at how well this thing works. You do have to empty the collection cup often but that doesnt bother me, just shows how well the thing is working and I wouldnt want it larger because it would add more weight to the machine. I have only had this for a couple weeks and I read some reviews that say the hoses come unattached after some time, however I think if you dont pull the thing around by the hoses that wont happen. The cord and hoses are a nice length in my opnion. Just pick the canister up and move it closer to your area of concentration (its certainly light enough) instead of dragging it to you by the hose. Until I had to make a decision that day I was still a little undecided on which canister vac I should buy, but am very, very glad I chose the Hoover Wind Tunnel.

Summary: Best of the Best!
Comment: I've owned about 5 vacuums before this model.. from the cheapies to the ultra-expensive, this one beat them all. Unlike most reviews that are for products people have tried once or twice, I've owned this vacuum for 3 years now and it's just as amazing as the first time I used it. I'm even thinking about getting a second and storing it for fear that one day I'll be without it and will have to settle with another inferior model. The things I loved about it... the convenience, the POWER, the overall design, the quietness compared to any other brand or model, and even the "looks".

The Convenience was obvious from the beginning.. one canister to empty simply enough without ever using a bag or spending a dime on accessories, the seperate Hand-Unit that actually Extends a long distance to get completely under all beds, including KingSize beds. It's very lightweight, and agile enough to take anywhere where other vacuums are too bulky or tough to manuever.. this one has them beat.

The Power.. surprised me to no end.. the amount of dust and hair and grime you collect was simply stunning. But the Biggest surprise was the Hand-unit's Power.. (Word of advice) when you activate the hand unit, HANG ONTO IT! It's so powerful it was actually Pullng me into rooms like an SUV on Nitro.

The quietness.. for those of us that are the observers in a household and go nuts at the scream of vacuums that make the cackles on the back of your neck stand up, I was stunned at how quiet (with POWER) this vacuum had. I could honestly talk at a normal voice or even a soft tone and someone standing next to me would be able to hear what I said. It's so UNannoying, it's heaven.

The only downside I have to the vacuum is not much of a beef, and doesn't really effect everyone, but if you vacuum up kitty-litter, (as some owners have to deal with) eventually the filter will clump up after about 5 or 6 months.. thankfully it's cleanable and doesn't need a replacement every time, but of course you have to scrape out each individual rim of the filter and that can take some patience, as well of course you have to set it aside overnight to dry before reinstalling or any dirt will cake back into a wet filter.. other then that, you couldn't ASK for a better vacuum.. I'll never switch to another brand or model because this was simply the best of the best.

Summary: So easy to adjust
Comment: This vacuum means never having to bend over to adjust the settings. Suction control is ON the handle, as is the carpet/bare floor control. With the suction on full power, you'd suck a throw rug up, but with just with a slide of your thumb, you can decrease the suction. Leave the beater bar rolling (or not), clean your throw rugs. Use the bare floor nozzle (or not) to vacuum tile and hardwood floors. Dust cup is large and covered, so pop it out, bring it to whichever trash can you like and empty it. Has an adjustable wand that's perfect for tall (or short) users. Filters are all washable to save bucks. We have hairy dogs and this works great...futhermore, no doggy smell while vacuuming. The hepa filter apparently works, too! Pretty lightweight, easy to manuever and no brainer operation.
