A newer Hoover TurboPower has arrived in Argos, still bagless and offers 12 metres of cable as opposed to the 8.5 metres. Good to see the TP bagless is still selling despite some remarks from other UK members on here regarding its longevity on the market. Slight colour change too.

Well they still sell both the other two Turbo Power uprights in store including the blue UTP1610. My guess is that Argos wants something exclusive even if the older blue one has been reduced in price to £124-99.
Because of the recession, franchises like Argos and Currys won't necessarily have all the models they sell in stock. In the same way that bags and filters are usually sold out with buyers being messaged etc when they come in, its the same with the brands and associated models. I don't see that being much of an issue, though buyers these days have to shop around and be prepared to have to either wait or get the next competitor. | ||

Don't discount the SEBO X1.1 though - its a great vacuum that does everything the X4 can do - its also a bit cheaper to buy anyway.
As for the TurboPower - when I had pets and had my Vax Mach Air - I can certainly attest to preferring the bagless option because I was having to vacuum daily to keep the home clean and if I didn't have the Vax Mach Air, or required a new bagless upright, I'd probably consider the Hoover TurboPower. I loved the Hoover Slalom but the daft disc on the base plate to lower or increase the suction was just a silly design aspect that I didn't like and the handle never locked up properly. That model also suffered from not being able to go under the bed where my old cat could be found with tons of pet hair that she left behind, either. Bird seed, cat hair and dog hair were the worst kinds of dirt I had to constantly clean up after. My Gtech cordless sweeper has its work cut out for itself now when my aunt leaves her pets behind for months at a time when she goes off on continental holidays but it can handle the pet hair and seed really well. Much prefer bagged vacuums in the long run but at least there's a choice for buyers. Argos can do what they wish - particularly if they are offering or know that buyers are going elsewhere for brands and particular models. You and I know that there are equivalent models that are cheaper at cost prices but unless the buying public are aware of it, there's nothing really that "Joe Public" will be aware of, unless they put the extra time in researching products etc. This post was last edited 06/25/2013 at 10:37 | ||

I had wanted to get the New Turbo Power in red as I quiet like the design but when I read on this site that it was just a rebrand of another non Hoover model (sorry can't remember which model) it just lost all appeal for me. The globe keep tempting me and at least that appears to be an original Hoover design.

T The Turbo Power is another design of the Jazz... To be honest I like the design, except the fact that it's 88 Decibels! It's either that or the Panasonic Eco-Max Bagged Upright as I like the look of it. | ||
