Great product. Love the sound quality and storage capacity. Only problem I have is iTunes! If I do anything to the setlist on my computer, it affects the iTouch.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is truly life changing. I feel as if I am finally awake and aware. Also the book arrived in good condition and in a timely manner.

This is the fourth pedometer I’ve had. One got lost, another fell into the toilet, and none would come close to counting the steps in the house with carpeting. I like the feature where it automatically sets to zero for each day. I’m glad I read the reviews before purchasing from Amazon because the one negative seemed to be the clip not anchoring strongly enough and thus it was easy to lose. Sure enough, the first day I was wearing it around the house it came unclipped. Fortunately the next day the safety leash I ordered arrived and twice it has kept the pedometer from dropping unexpectedly. The lack of a strong clip is the only reason I gave it four stars.

I can’t really work the thing right, and I don’t understand how to change it every day and how it tells you how much weight you lost.
Thanks,

This book asks us to take full responsiblity for our lives. FULL responsibilty. This is a good thing.

I bought one of these for the office at my work. People are constantly coming in and out and because it is an industrial building there is lots of dirt and mud tracked in. This vacuum is nothing fancy but after using it for a couple of months it is still working great. It really has great suction and works like a charm. If you are looking for something inexpensive that works well this is the one.

The first unit I received had an issue with the brushes not spinning. I checked everything out the manual said to (verified strong suction, clean filters, etc.) but no dice. Fortunately, Amazon makes exchanges painless and doesn’t stick you with the return shipping charge which would have been hefty on this item.
The replacement unit arrived a few days later. I put it together, turned it on, and hooray this time the brushes were spinning! Then we tried actually using it and found barely any cleaning solution was coming out. If I took off the handle and pushed the lever on the main unit in manually, fluid came out just fine so there seemed to be something wrong with the button on the handle. The rod that operates the lever to release the cleaning fluid worked fine when I operated the button, but as soon as I put any pressure onto the rod it would push back up into the handle. Since it takes a fair amount of pressure to get fluid flowing, this was the problem. Fortunately, this was a pretty easy DIY fix by opening up the handle and shoring up the other end of the rod with some duct tape.
At this point, I finally had a fully functioning unit. It does a great job picking up old stains and the carpet felt nice and soft afterward. The brushes do a good job and make plenty of contact with the carpet. The method suggested in the manual of doing a wet stroke back, a wet stroke forward, and then two dry stores back and forwards works well but chews up the fluid quickly. I found just keeping it simple and doing a wet stroke back and then a dry stroke forward worked equally well in most cases and lets your fluid last twice as long.
All in all, this unit works fine but I’m a little frustrated that I had to deal with two units with very basic defects. If Hoover did any kind of QA on these units they wouldn’t have made it out of the factory, so I really wonder if they actually do any QA. Fortunately, Amazon is on board to help makes things right, as always.

I had low expectations with this inexpensive vacuum but I purchased it due to the low price, free shipping and the great Amazon reviews. We have had it for a year and it works much better than my old vacuum from Sears that cost $250. I tried a Dyson at one point but it was so bulky, difficult to clean my car with and expensive that I returned it to Sears. That was a total waste of money. This vacuum is relatively light and has great sucking power and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. It is totally sufficent and it costs what a vacuum should cost.

Worked well for 12 months of light use (single bed room, weekly once)… and then burns and horrible customer service of Amazon / Hoover didn’t do a thing about it.
Do they expect us to buy a $75 vacuum every ?? Damn..
