Vacuum Cleaner Review: Hoover T Series WindTunnel Rewind Bagless Upright Vacuum

We decided to bring the super chunky cookies into our living room. It was also my cookie that fell into five super chunky broken pieces and fell all over our new carpet floor. So my job was to clean the food. Fortunately, I was well equipped to handle this domestic disaster with my new Hoover T Series Wind Tunnel Rewind Bagless Upright Vacuum.

I could have started with a handheld vacuum cleaner, but I opted for a full-sized Hoover instead. While our dog ran for cover, I pulled out just a few feet of the 27 foot retractable power cord, plugged it in and went to work. Hoover Rewind has a built in coil for power cord. Pull out as much of the cord as you need and when you’re done unplug the vacuum and step on the pedal. The source inside the Hoover will be the fast rewind power cord. It’s an ingenious feature that works well.

The powerful vacuum made short flashes, but I continued because I enjoyed it. Rewind vacuum is pretty cool. It has many features that remind us of our old Dyson DC07. However, I think the build quality seems better and Hoover’s experience in building vacuums shows in many small but significant ways. For example, all attachments are on board and easy to use. This Hoover tool has a crevice tool, a 12-inch hose extension, a dust brush, and a small drive tool that they ride along. To use them, simply disconnect one end of the eight-foot rear vacuum hose and apply the desired tool. The process is much easier than using the Dyson tools.

For example, when we encounter a new end of our board, the hose is simply disconnected and the rider tool/upholstery tool is attached. It roared to life with a loud squeal and I was able to quickly subdue our table without knocking or scratching it. Once I was done there, I added the slotted hardware and ran it through the wall of our baseboard. It just took a short time and was easy to use.

The accessories are easy to use, because the ergonomics of the Hoover Rewind excel. For example, the power button and the pedal that unlocks the handle from the correct position are both conveniently located on the Hoover. You don’t have to read a manual or be a smart industrial designer to use the Hoover Rewind. This just makes sense. The vacuum also provides useful windows that allow the user to view and drive the belt. The system check indicator turns red if it is necessary to clean the filter, empty the dirt cup, and remove the oven.

We are pleased to have found the Hoover T Series WindTunnel Rewind (Model UH70120) on sale for $129 at our local store. Over the years Dyson DC07 ownership convinced my wife and I also had limited premium vacuum cleaners. So since we left our Dyson on the move recently, we vowed to look for another premium vacuum. Hoover proved to be the perfect solution.

The Hoover WindTunnel Rewind offers many of the features found in the Dyson. Like the Dyson, the Hoover Wind Tunnel has a cyclonic action that can blow dust and dirt from deep within the carpet. The Rewind WindTunnel also has a removable dustbin making it similar to the Dyson. But the dust bin is a tad smaller than the Dyson and seems to be a bit messier to dump. It is not easy to rush the mud. The Hoover also has an easy-to-clean HEPA filter to help clean the air of allergens and fine dust.

Overall, the Hoover T-series Wind Tunnel Rewind is a competitive and worthy competitor to premium vacuums like Dyson and Oreck. For under $150, the low-end Hoover vacuum cleaner is a winner. I have found this vacuum to be effective at picking up dirt, dust, debris, and cake crumbs.
