The Hoover Anniversary WindTunnel Self-Propelled Bagged Upright UH50000 is a machine that celebrates the history of Hoover vacuum cleaners, which date back to 1909. As an anniversary edition, this Hoover model includes some very useful features usually found on higher-end vacuum cleaners. Priced at around $200 dollars, this Hoover vacuum cleaner is priced really well, especially since it includes a 3-year warranty.

This Hoover Anniversary Vacuum Cleaner includes the patented WindTunnel Technology that uses 3 separate air channels to suction up debris. There is a Custom Cleaning Control that allows the operator to clean hard floors as well as carpeting. This self-propelled Hoover vacuum makes it really easy to push back and forth across heavily carpeted areas and makes this machine accessible to people who have a harder time with heavier vacuum cleaners.

Some of the features included on this Hoover model are the 31' power cord, 5 position height adjustment and a 8' stretch hose. Other features include a HEPA Media Bag that traps 99.9% of allergens, including many common pollens, dust mites and pet dander. This is particularly nice for people who suffer from allergies and for cleaning those environments where good filtration is essential for air quality. A headlight makes it possible for the operator to see larger objects that shouldn't be vacuumed on the floor before they are sucked into the machine. Headlights on vacuums save a lot of jewelry from being lost in the depths of the bag and are of course very helpful when vacuuming under furniture or in darkened areas.

The Hoover Anniversary WindTunnel Self-Propelled Bagged Upright UH50000 is really effective on pet hair, thanks to the pet hair tool that has its own rotating brush. The pet hair tool is great on any area (pet hair or not) that is hard to reach with the normal upright unit. This nifty tool makes cleaning stairs really easy and lampshades that accumulate a lot of fine dust come out looking like brand-new. This is also a great tool for cleaning furniture, even those with densely-piled fabric.

Another thing that is desirable about this Hoover vacuum is the fact that it is still recognizable as a vacuum cleaner. Many vacuum cleaners available today tend to end up looking more like something out of a science-fiction movie with body units that look fierce and intimidating, but don't contribute to actual cleaning. While it is a matter of personal taste to desire such an elaborate exterior, many consumers would probably prefer better suction and superior cleaning ability over aestehetics when it comes to a vacuum cleaner.

The Hoover Anniversary WindTunnel Self-Propelled Bagged Upright UH50000 is a good value for the money. Appealing to pet owners and allergy sufferers as well as those who desire a self-propelled unit, this Hoover vacuum cleaner is a pleaser. A nice metallic silver color and overall good design make this a visually appealing machine with out being over-the-top as some of today's vacuums have become. The 3-year warranty is wonderful and makes Hoover model an excellent purchase for the price.
