I spent ages trying to think of a catchy title for this blog post when really the name speaks for itself. Having worked my way through countless vacuum cleaners over the years I think I can finally say I am a bit of a suction snob and won’t settle for anything less than 100%.
We were kindly sent the new Hoover Upright Vacuum cleaner with anti hair wrap technology. This is huge for us having a long haired cat and 3 women who shed worse than said cat!
Gone are the days of bulky, heavy machines that require the strength of a bodybuilder to lug up and down the stairs. The Hoover box was quite compact and I did worry about putting it together. However, there were just a couple of components that needed slotting into place. No screws or tools required.
I was pleasantly surprised with how well the Hoover moves on corners and around furniture. I am use to upright vacuums only laying so far back and also needing a degree in reversing to get around chair legs etc. The body of the vacuum lays down touching the floor which means no longer having to move the coffee table and my desk! The light at the front highlights any bits I may have overlooked.
Deep clean carpets and hard floors using the combination floorhead with ANTI-TWIST™ brushbar. No loss of suction* ensures consistent great performance, even when the dustbin is nearly up to the maximum level.

One feature I adore is the Push & Lift button that allows you to take the body of the Hoover up and down the stairs etc without actually carrying the whole machine. This of course makes cleaning out the car easier too! No stretching the wires and tubes!
HL4 boasts a wide range of design features, all of which make this model exceptional value for money. Simply switch from hard floors to carpets with fingertip controls, and move seamlessly to other surfaces with the single press of a button. An ergonomic, soft-grip handle makes the HL4 easy and comfortable to use, whilst effortless bin emptying avoids mess.

Overall I am more than happy with the performance of the Hoover Upright Cleaner. It not only is simple to use but looks sleek and modern too. Priced at £193 and available both online and in all good retailers.
