John Thompson's review of Hoover Alyx TC1182

“Why one star? well. there was no option for none...”

Awful. This chinese made vacuum sucks well, but not for long...

My first one started spitting out flames after two weeks, Hoover replaced it with one which lasted just thirteen months. When you consider this was used around twenty times in my 30' Boat, rather than a daily household cleaner, this is seriously appalling.

Hoover wanted nothing to do with this second failure, as it was out of warranty, and wouldn't even phone me back as promised.

When it was working, it filled up far too quickly, and the filter was a biatch to clean, unlike my lovely Dysons at home...

Nil points Hoover, I will NEVER buy another Hoover product. Hope you go the same way as Saab ;-)
