Amazon.com Review
The Tempo WidePath features a 15-inch cleaning path for super fast vacuuming when you need it the most. Plus, the WidePath cleans indoor air while you vacuum, thanks to an innovative allergen filtration system that traps 100 percent of dust mites, 99.98 percent of ragweed, and common grass pollens for cleaner breathing and fresher air. A powerful, 12 amp motor provides ample suction and doesn't leave anything behind. A brilliant headlight illuminates the cleaning path to ensure thorough vacuuming. Onboard tool storage keeps attachments, such as a dusting brush, furniture nozzle, crevice tool, and two extension wands in close reach. A smaller profile (approximately 33-1/4 by 18-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches) and lighter overall weight makes the Tempo WidePath easy to push, and easier to maneuver around and under furniture, too. And, your purchase is covered by a Hoover one-year warranty. Get a Tempo WidePath, and never get behind on the housework again! --Brian Olson

Customer Reviews

Vacuum
The service was so fast & the vacuum is everything you said it was & more. It arrived in great shape. We are just so pleased with it.

Way too heavy...attachment is awkward
I purchased this on the strength of the other reviews here. I used it a few times, but it's about 3 times heavier than any vacuum I've had. It moves forward by itself, but it's very hard to pull back. I also don't like the way the cord is all wrapped around the attachements. The wand is a big pain in the neck as you have to take it apart again before using the vacuum on floors. My old vacuum had a spot for the fully elongated wand- this one doesn't.

I give it 3 stars because it has excellent suction and is a good buy for the $$ if you're a big fellow. It's not the vacuum for the 5'4" 125 lb woman. Gave it to my parents and am buying something else.

Sometimes Cheap Is Better
I was in the market for new vacuum...it's impossible to get good reviews from users, since most everyone hates to vacuum. I went with this cheap model that had relatively good reviews from Amazon users. Works great...and at the price it becomes a throw away product if it breaks.
