  1. Hey there, maybe I can help.

    This canister isn’t a bad machine, but it’s not a great machine either. We were selling them for awhile, but didn’t get a great response. Even had someone bring it back for an exchange. Hoover has taken a slide in recent years; most of their operations are out of China and Mexico, so the quality isn’t where it used to be on many of their models. You’d have to get into the Platinum line of thiers to get a top notch one anymore.

    If you’re set on a canister, I’d try looking at several options:

    1. Miele Titan Canister – made in Germany, it has a 7 year warranty. They are more expensive than the Hoover, but it has more suction than any canister I know of, the best filter, and made from the same plastic motor cycle helmets are made from. It also has variable speed controls.

    2. Panasonic Canisters – I don’t suggest one over the other specifically, but the MC-CG902 is one we sell online and has scored tops in consumer reviews lately. It’s also in the same price range as the one you’re looking at ($229 from us). If you visit their website, you can look in the Platinum section for some more canisters which are a step above the 902, but to buy those you’d have to go to a store that sells them like a vacuum shop, or call someone like us directly to work out pricing – they can’t be sold direct online.

    3. Electrolux Canisters – They have really stepped up their game as of late w/ some great items. Again, you’ll either have to visit a vacuum shop or call someone direct as they aren’t sold online.

    Best of luck, and if you need more help, feel free to reach out.
