Hoover Cordless Stick Vac Review

Living in a house with three children and a dog leaves me with plenty of opportunities to put my vacuuming skills to use (just see the video below). Each and every one of them leaves their own unique messes. For instance, my son is the king of Pop Tart crumbs, my daughter is the queen of spilled cereal and of course our crawling infant can shred a newspaper more quickly than no other. Thus the need for a lightweight, cordless vacuum.

The Hoover Cordless Stick Vacuum has been absolute pleasure to use for our small mess needs. It’s lightweight frame makes it easy for me to grab it out of the broom closet and suck up a quick crumbly mess without having to drag out the full size upright we have. We’ve found that the suction capabilities work perfectly for light messes on rugs and our hard wood flooring but not quite so well for the tough jobs of bedrooms. Just as an added bonus, the new Platinum Collection has a nice and modern look with a silver and black body style.

  • Light Weight Design – less than 8lbs
  • Cordless for easy transport from room to room
  • LiNX 18 Volt Lithium Ion battery charges in just 3 hours

Overall, I think it’s the perfect tool for small areas, small messes and just a quick clean up of daily dog hair shedding. We use the vacuum about twice a day and only need to recharge the battery once per week. After 2 weeks of use we did notice that large amounts of dog hair will clog the suction entrance and should be cleaned out frequently to help prevent this.

The Hoover Cordless Stick Vac is available at Hoover.com for $179.99.

    extra entry :commenting on the video: most vacs of any type are wide and take up lots storage in my opinion it looks as though this one is very narrow and I like that you can see through the container to know when to empty out the caught debree.Any lastly, its cordless so I’d love to have one of these handy dandy vacs to keep and use in our motor home perfect for that use too! thanks great giveaway great video too> you had a fast arm cleaning and it done the job great!
