These are good machines. I like the older SP Windtunnels better for a few reasons such as; The color of the attachments, the decals, the motor, and when they were made in the U.S.A.
These problem with these that breaks alot is the Actuator Arm because alot of people would carry it up and down the stairs on the handle rather than carrying it on the back handle, that's one reason why I see these come in at vacuum stores ALOT for repair. Another thing I see these come in for repair ALOT is simply a belt change. Now today I don't see alot of these in for repair anymore, I guess people must have replaced these with something they were more interested in getting like a Windtunnel Air, a dyson, or something that's bagless. Maybe that's why I hear these would be discontinued soon. I hope it will still be made for a little longer because I will say these are still better than anything you would find in either Walmart or Target. |

I have never had any issues with the site. Did you hit the browser back or forward arrows?? Doing so may cause you to lose your work.
For general postings you type your information for the thread and either -- Preview or Post without Preview. If on the Preview page you will still need to select the option for Posting once you are ok with how it came out-- via spelling, grammar, photo sizes etc.. There are two systems for photos. The new system permits numerous photos in a single post. The old system is one file at a time and generally one picture per comment. Mozilla FireFox and Chrome browser softwares work very well for the site. Internet Explorer has issues and hick ups with many pages. Microsoft Edge for Windows 10 is OK but still suffers a few issues that Internet Explorer had! I hope this helps for your future comments and posting. Nice Hoover Anniversary Self Propelled Windtunnel upright. These ones are made in China and use the new CWP brush rolls for Hoover-- no longer manufactured by Hoover. Personally I prefer the cleaning power of the original former Hoover brush rolls. |

Thanks to both panasonicvac and Durango 159 for putting up with my temper tantrum. I regretfully admit my difficulty posting this particular entry was human error. Nevertheless, I appreciate both your comments. I have heard the problem about the actuator arm. I always make sure to carry the machine by its carry handle. I have replaced both the belts once as well..but have done nothing more to the machine. I don't use it that often -- as nicely as it picks up -- do partly to its noise level. this guy is one screaming beast! |

Here's mine next to one of my new birthday presents. Mine works very well and my dad uses my Hoover Windtunnel Twin Chamber Anniversery as our house vacuum. Both work well and I would recommend both!

The bagless anniversary model was discontinued years ago, You can't get those anymore unless you buy a used one from either craiglist or ebay. It was the last bagless windtunnel Hoover ever made until they got replaced by the T-Series. Honestly in my opinion, I HATE the bagless windtunnels. Filters get clogged easily and it's a mess to maintain. Not to mention that the motors go out quickly than the bagged models because of it's filtration. And I don't like using the hose on these because they were very weak to use. Only thing I did like about these was it did cleaned carpets good, better than the T-Series.
