I know that this had been posted before in the past, but then they were down to $79.99...
Today they are down to $34.99 - And they are New and not Refurbs - Purchased two of them and a Dirt Devil Stick Vac - One to play with, and one to hang onto unused - A short lived piece of history saved for the future - Think about it - What vacuum can you get for $34.99 Each, New - Here is the link in case anyone wants to snag one - I think this price is for today only - www.directtoolsoutlet.com...

I already have two, But I ordered another just for fun. They are not great filtering machines, you do have to dump the very small dirt cup often, but they are a fun, quirky little vacuum. | ||

You are right. $34.99 is a great deal. You can hardly get a parts machine for that. | ||

I noticed this morning they went back up - Like I had said when I posted, it was a one day 30% off sale - They said it was 30% off the entire website - They called it the "deal of the day" -
When they were introduced in Canada two years ago, they were $499.99 and Home Depo had them on their website last year for $399.99 - So Like I said, you can't go wrong for $39.99... | ||

I would have to agree- I am sure they will either lower the price again, or have another sale...
Especially since that website is actually a T.T.I. website owned by the T.T.I. Company - It explains how it is so cheep - They are probably selling them at the cost to manufacture the units - I am sure at $39.99 they still made a profit- Dan | ||

Went for it at $49.99
I paid $61 with tax and shipping. Although reception has been mostly poor, a new full-featured canister with a power nozzle and extra tools for that price doesn't exist.
I was initially very intrigued by these strange-looking vacs, so now I'll be able check one out see how it works. It looks like it will clean well, but be high-maintenance with it's small dirt cup, and inefficient compact dual cyclone setup. I'm sure TTI is abandoning this design altogether, but it looks like if they just addressed the machines flaws, they could have something special to offer. | ||

If I had the space I would go for it. I love canisters and like the looks of it. I heard the hose/wand setup isn't all that great either. Kind of clunky. But it does come with 3 separate tools plus a floor tool according to the manual. And it is neat looking for sure.
I'd say it's well worth $61 for its uniqueness and something to mess with. | ||

Hoover Air Revolve Canister Vacuum - $34.99.. SOME PICTURES
Hi All - I am sorry I did not post any pictures prior to this - I had my Shiny New Left Hip Replacement on October 3rd, so life has been living at the Kessler Outpatient Rehab !!!
. I purchased two of the Air Revolves - One will never be opened, and other I opened for the pictures, and ran with only the hose to check the suction, and then it went back, into the box, unused - . So - Suction - Not all that great - I can not see this being a deep cleaner on carpets because the suction is barely acceptable and agin not all that great - To be honest, my Shark Lift-Around Pod felt like it had more suction then this Hoover - I was very surprised... . It does come with a different power nozzle then the Oversea's versions - It is the same WindTunnel small nozzle they use on all the other current canisters - We also get a second horse hair bare floor brush that does not come with the over seas versions - . If anyone wants to see any other specific pictures, let me know - I just loaded them at random - I packed the open one back up, but did not tape the box closed yet - I also will add that everything is very clunky - BIG TOOLS - Stupidly Oversized - Short Power Cord - 20-Feet... Short Hose - . With that Said - The fun Factor, and the Cool factor are there - If it like a Modern Day Roll Easy - I am not sure why it tanked in the US and Canada - Again - What can you buy for $34.99!!! It is good for the money, but in no way is it worth the $300-400 they started at - . The Dirt Devil Stick was $13.99 and included the small electric Stair Power Head, and the 10" Electric Carpet Power Head - Again - What stick can you buy with all the goodies for $16.09 - Since I am giving that to someone I work with, I did not want to open it - Nothing really great about it - Just good for the Money... | ||

I like the looks of it. I'd buy one if I had my own place and the space.
That power nozzle actually looks like an improvement over the UK one I saw in a video. It looked squeaky and clunky, and just not very impressive, although it did have a light to show when the brush was on. I'm surprised they include so many attachments for a modern big box type canister. The horsehair floor brush looks pretty well designed. | ||

So... the unit really is not that loud - The Power Head is actually louder then the canister - I only ran it held in the air to be sure it worked - I DID NOT use it on carpet...
. There is a Crevice Tool, Dusting Brush, Upholstery Tool with Lint Picker Strips, a Horsehair bare floor nozzle, and the the strange bare floor tool two row rubber squeegee like strips, that I have no idea what you would use on... . But, The tools are HUGE - Between the gigantic hose handle and the very large tools, I think it would be clunky to do any type of detail cleaning with... . I am sure it would be fine for bare floors, carpet, and edge cleaning with the large crevice tool, but the opening is a weird almost triangle like opening - Maybe to large to do much good - .

Yes, click on both item's what's included.
Pick the one with attachments (SKU SH40090CA), the other one is only for the canister, but it's the same price.

Actually - The Model number has NOTHING to do with what you get in the cartons as far as attachments -
. All the attachments come with both models - It is simply the type of outer carton - If you look at the pictures that I posted, One is a closeup of the carton showing the model # SH40090PC - . Here is the difference: SH40090PC-Plain Carton-Plain Brown Outer Carton for QVC/HSN/Home Depot Type Sales-Plain white inner carton - SH40090CA - Print Outer Retail Carton as shown in reply #15 in this thread - Actually both Cartons are shown in that picture - The PC Brown Plain Carton, snd the CA Printed retail carton - . According to TTI, And "PC" in the end of the model # is always a Brown Outer Carton - They has the same thing the First Devil Stick Vacs when I got one - One in a plain carton, one is a printed carton - . Hope this helps- Dan | ||

Hi Jon - I ordered on 10/23 and they arrived on 10/26 -
. As far as extra filters, I wish I could help - I won a set of two on an e-bay auction, but when they arrived they were incorrect and did not match the listing which was for the correct filters - They were very sorry about the issue and refunded my money back and told me to keep the wrong filters which fit nothing I have !!! . Evidently they mixed up shipments and have no more to send - If you find any, let me know where - Here is the link to the auction I won so you can see the item numbers on the picture - . https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-2x-Filte... .

Hi Bill - Not a problem - I understand being cautious - To be honest, their descriptions are not that great - The PC Plain Carton version is basically shipped double cartoned so I think it will hold up better in the hands of FedEx Ground !!!!
. I had to do a lot of research because when I got the two Air Revolves, I also picked up the dirt Devil stick with the dual power heads - One for rugs, and one for stairs and upholstery... It took half an out of looking up the model numbers on the web to find out what was really included... Again - They need to work on the description of "what is included" as they are not very accurate, but fortunately you usually get more then they state... . And Barry - As you are a collector, I would not worry about it holding up - It is not that badly built - Like I said, just clunky with large attachments - . Dan | ||

Called Hoover Customer Service about replacement filter cost I attached a link to the only webpage that Hoover still has up for this product.
Kinda sad, but one bad review does not mean all that much.
My experience with using it while teaching my niece how to use it, was that the suction was moderate to strong, not sure about if it's up against much resistance if it fades fast... it probably does. However, it's definitely a huge step up for her from a low powered stick vac, which she couldn't use for dusting or above floor work as easily.
The Hoover Customer Service Rep. said that
HEPA pre-motor filters are: $9.52 + $6.99 shipping; part number 440008004 on back order until July 2019
Foam pre-motor filters are: $1.04 + $6.99 shipping; part number 440008005 on back order until July 2019
Also, seeing in an online video somewhere, that there actually is a post motor foam filter, which I thought should be easily accessible by removing the four small screws next to the carry handle.. no such luck! It must involve removing the large green "wheel" plastic, and I was afraid it would crack. Damn, that could have been useable.
I did find from the Service Rep. that there is a HEPA type filter under there and it is an exhaust filter and is a bit costly... like more thatn what we paid for the whole machine!
Exhaust HEPA filters are: $36.92 + $6.99 shipping; part number 440008002 available now
Note that the numbers on the dust bin sticker are incorrect, per me tediously going over it twice with her, I am sure the part numbers I got above are correct.
Happy Hoovering!
BTW, I saw on their website that Hoover doesn't have ANY Canisters at all in their line up. This may be the end for them producing Cansiters.

Hi Patrick
And Happy Thanksgiving!
I ordered one on the same day that you did, and had the same reaction. Like I said earlier in this thread, I don't need this vacuum, and didn't even especially want one. But the price seemed so good, I couldn't resist! It may not even get taken out of the box. But that didn't stop me from checking the shipping status every day. It must have shipped the same day as yours, because my projected delivery day is Friday also. If I do open it, I may run it once, just to see what it's like, and to be able to say that I tried it out. Or, I may leave it sealed, and just experience it vicariously through those who have used it. Barry Update: Patrick; I just checked my status again, and it now says it should be delivered on Monday. It's in Charlotte, NC today. As cold as it is here today, I kind of wish I was in NC! This post was last edited 11/22/2018 at 10:10 | ||

Hey Patrick,
Thanks for the review!
I'm glad you like it! I was beating myself up for ordering one of these vacuums. Now, I'm contemplating ordering a second one. My tracking still shows it for expected delivery on Monday. I can't, for the life of me, figure out what they were thinking with that squeegee floor nozzle! If it was a wet/dry vac, okay. But a bare floor tool should have bristles, as far as I'm concerned. Will the squeegee thing even glide over bare/hardwood floors? That's what I have almost everywhere. Barry | ||

That weird tool... I told my niece to use the powerhead on the rugs, the floor brush on her hardwood, and the squeegee weird thing on her vinyl/tile kitchen and bath floors, only if they were dry, of course.
Not sure what else it could be for, and no one at TTI customer service will have a clue, I'm sure!

Bottom line, it's a one of a kind. Clearly based in the GE Roll Easy....
Original RE concept design has been improved in some areas, like weight and filtration, cheapened in most others, like no more RE copper wands (which must have been breathtaking when new) or a blower port, or longevity.
But, it was then and still is a completely unique and functional format.
I'm sure no one will pick up that ball again, so it seems like an essential collector's piece to me.
I stopped at one on display and one unboxed, but have given 2 as gifts to good reviews. and ordered one more for an xmas gift exchange this year.

$10 0ff Discount Code...
Besides now being $25.00, I forgot to put this in my post above -
. I also had a coupon for $10.00 off $50.00 - I am going to post it here, BUT I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WORKS MORE THEN ONCE !!!! It says "One use per customer" so I assume the coupon is the same one put into every carton, and only works once per address, or e-mail address - . So if it works, great - If not I tried... Here it is : TQ48UAMG-8AR6 Dan | ||

Thanks for updating us on the prices. I was wanting to get one since I first seen the post but with black friday coming I decided to wait. Glad I did. I guess this is a Cyber Monday deal event - they still have free shipping too. I cut it close with only 3 minutes left on Cyber Monday, so I could only afford the warehouse box version, but even still $25 is a great deal. Yo know what $25 gets you on Walmart.com? A stick vac.
You get a lot of vacuum at this price, and no stores are advertising or sell this thing, so it looks like it will fade into obscurity before too long. I'll use mine, but not as a daily driver. I think it looks like a fun vacuum to play with. | ||

PC vs CA
Sorry if I'm being dense.
I'm understanding the only difference between the two versions is the box. My PC version arrived, and the box inside the outer shipping box is plain white. I'm guessing that on the CA version, that inner box has pictures of the vacuum, it's tools, features, etc? Has anyone bought the CA version, to be able to confirm this? From a collectible standpoint, I'd kind of like to have the box with the pictures. When I checked this morning, they had the crazy $25 deal on the PC, but they did show the CA at a still very reasonable $34. ($34.99?) I'd be disappointed if I ordered the CA, and when it arrives, it's in the same, plain white box. Thanks, Barry | ||

Hi Barry - Take a look at greg's picture in reply #15 in this thread -
. He obviously ordered one of each - The printed retail carton "SH" Version is the one in the top of the picture - it does not get repacked, and is shipped by TTI in the original printed retail carton which will be covered with Fedex Labels - But it is still the printed pictured retail carton none the Less- . Below it in the same picture is the "PC" Plain carton version which simply is a plain white carton containing the vacuum, double packed into a brown shipping carton that says AirRevolve on the outside with the model number and serial numbers as shown in my picture - . Hope this helps - Dan | ||

I think it was because of Black Friday - I ordered two more on 11/26 and mine are still processing as well -
The first three orders I placed shipped the next day - Again - I am sure they got slammed on black Friday like everyone else - . Case in point - I placed an order with Amazon a bunch of toys that were sold and shipped by amazon on 111/19 - 10-days ago - NOTHING has shipped yet - They told me they are very backed up and it would ship between tomorrow and Monday - . I would not worry as I am sure they will ship shortly... Dan | ||

Both of mine got delayed by a few days too.
Once they eventually shipped, I got a projected delivery date. That date then got pushed to at least two days later than originally expected. Not the end of the world. Just a little frustrating, when you're really looking forward to getting something. Barry | ||

Also just a side note - If you watch the Video in reply #52, remember that this IS NOT the power nozzle that we get in the states - That Video was by IBAISAIC and is a UK VAX Version -
. The nozzle on the US Version is the Smaller WindTunnel Power Nozzle the they use on most of the U.S. Canisters- . Dan | ||

Well,
I gave it its first use.
The first thing that I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by, is the nice bare floor tool...with what seems like horse hair bristles! I was under the impression that the only bare floor tool was the one like a squeegee. Second, it's relatively quiet. At least, compared to my Electroluxes. And, the styling/design just makes me smile. If I had to nit pick: I'm kind of spoiled by on-board tool storage. The hose is kind of stiff. And, not being a bagless fan in general, I find the whole dirt cup situation kind of messy. After use, I did take the separator out and wiped it down, along with the dirt cup itself. In general, I think it's a fun little vacuum, and I'm glad I got one. (Or, more than one) Especially, for the price! Thank you again, Dan, for posting the heads-up! I couldn't see it being my daily driver, but I'll definitely put it into the rotation! Barry | ||

ATTENTION EVERYONE WHO RECENTLY PLACED AN ORDER I was just able to cancel my most recent order of 3 pieces that I got for $24.99 each at the tail end of November. It was still marked PROCESSING, and had not yet shipped. I just told them I didn't need the items any longer.
Before I cancelled, I had just ordered 5 more at the $9.50 price, so I'm getting 5 pieces (all Xmas gifts to unsuspecting cleaners!) for under $50!
They will refund my other purchase within a few days. I've done it before with them and they are nice about it, no hard times given (just have your order number ready to give them)... and the money really does go back into your account!!
I think I'm done now, although I might have one sent to another niece of mine in Philadelphia.
Good Lord what a thrill this whole thing has been!

SH40090PC Steve, are you sure all the models aren't the same? The info. that's been going around since Dan posted about it last month is that the only difference is the plain box instead of printed retail packaging. I'm pretty sure he opened a box and checked it out.
I'm kinda freaking out a little, because it really cheapens the Xmas gift idea if a major part of the machine is missing.
Still a usable tool, but not the same as having a PN.

HonestJoe, thanks for the post about the Hoover Floormate. I ordered one myself, and even if the battery costs like $30 or something like that, you're still banking money. I have a hard time keeping my floors clean (linoleum) in winter with all the salt slush tracking in, and this might just do the trick!

This is funny as hell... They could not get rid of them for two years, and we helped clean out the warehouse in a matter of a week or so !!!
. I had received an e-mail that they lowered all their prices again yesterday but did not bother to check - I now have four of them, and that is enough - But $9.95.... They really wanted to get them off the books by the end of the year - They actually dropped the prices on a lot of the items on the website - lots of bargains to be found !!! . Dan | ||

You could just post them into Contemporary, but the Household section I think would be best for shampooers, since it isn't a vacuum cleaner, and is more of a cleaning appliance.
Also this looks like it might be better than a Swiffer Mop&Vac, which is basically a glorified $65 stick vac. I only have a small 1950's house so this battery powered floor scrubber should be more than enough for me! It says the runtime is 30 minutes per charge. | ||

That was crazy!
In a way, I'm glad I didn't hear about the $9.50 deal until after they were sold out.
I probably would have ordered at least one more! I have two now, and one on the way, which should arrive tomorrow. That gives me one to play with, and one of each box design to hoard away. I have no idea why. It's not like I'll live long enough to see them become old, valuable classics. Just couldn't pass them up! Barry | ||

Hey Patrick,
I agree. That was fun.
It got me to buy new, bagless vacuums; something that I never do! If I had seen that $9.50 deal, I think I'd be giving a few as Christmas gifts this year! I'm in for a total of three myself. Two of the "PC" version, and one of the "CA". According to tracking, my third and final one will arrive today. Barry | ||

11 Yes, 11.
Two for myself and one shipped to a dear friend in PA whose Dyson broke, when they were 79.99 each earlier this year on DirectToolsOutlet which still seemed like a really good deal, btw, since I was watching them go down steadily from about 299.00 when originally available on Amazon a few years ago.
Then one for my niece when they were 34.99 which was in late October on DTO.
And finally 7 more when they dropped to 9.50 this week. All already accounted for as gifts for the Holidays.
In the end, I'll still only keep my original two, one out on display unused, and one in box for the future to sell or give away someday.

Update:
Well, that didn't go exactly as planned.
I still have a total of three, but the third and final one, which came today, turned out to be another "PC" version. I had ordered the "CA". They must have sold out of those first. I wanted one of each box type to keep unused, but I must have waited just a little too long. So, I have three in the plain carton. Barry | ||

Hi All - Like I said in the start of the thread, and in several places, they are exactly the same vacuum, with all the same attachments - The ONLY thing that differs is the Carton the vacuum is in -
If you look at the pictures I posted, you can see the "PC" carton and what you get in the carton - Dan | ||

Hey Patrick, that would be cool if they have one of those Z's in stock. A few years ago I remember seeing a white version from my local thrift store but I ended up passing on it because it wasn't really in my interest but still they were really cool looking vacuums. These Revolves in this time of the year really takes me back from when I first got me a new in the box Hoover U5507-900 as a Christmas present in 2005 (I even still have a picture of it). Man those were in my opinion good vacuum times, loved every Hoover that was sold back then. One of my dream Hoovers is to find this Steamvac Spinscrub Multi-Surface Cleaner that was only exclusively sold through HSN.

Retail box
That's my only regret; that I wasn't able to get one of the "CA"s in the retail box.
I'm a sucker for pretty pictures! Oh well. I have three vacuums for a fraction of what one would have cost originally. It's also unfortunate that we'll probably never be able to get replacement filters for them. But I don't plan on using mine a ton anyway. Barry | ||

FedEx Delivered.....
Five of the six Hoover Air Revolves I ordered! I honestly was skeptical I would even get them, but there they sat, five very large boxes on my front porch! Needless to say I’m VERY ecstatic! One more to go!

Give this link to those who you gift the Air Revolves It makes it easy for them to see how to maintain it.
Saves a lot of explanation, and then all you have to do is to reinforce to them how important it is to clean the filters..
I think it will end up working out as a good vacuum for most people, albeit it will be just for the life of the included filters. CLICK HERE TO GO TO completenutt's LINK

Last but CERTAINLY not least.....
The Air Revolve in the “fancy” box arrived! This is definitely the one I’ll be keeping NIB. The others are Christmas gifts, but I’m keeping this one....I got tickled at the FedEx guy, he asked me today “why the hell did you order so many vacuum cleaners?” When I explained to him why, he then asked if I could order any more at that price!

I signed up on their site If I'd known they were going to hit 9 bucks I'd have gotten one just because too, was tempting at 25 and at least one family member could use a new not antique vac right now. I told her about it but she never jumped in. | ||

Gifts
I noticed some of you plan to give these as gifts to people. Are any of them averse to using a canister vacuum? Just wondering, because it seems like a lot of people that aren't vacuum enthusiasts don't want a canister anymore, and I don't know why. I could be over generalizing though. But we see what Hoover's lineup consists of, and that this seems to be their last canister for the household lineup. So it seems they're either trying to push people away from them, or customers don't want one.

I agree too on that. I have a few uprights but I don't like using them for above floor cleaning much at all. Canisters beat them on that unless they have a really long extension hose on them. I've been hit by a few that liked to fall over whenever the hose was used.
I don't know why people with no carpet still buy an upright unless it's just because that's what they're used to and it's what Walmart sells. They don't clean bare floors that well, even with a brush shutoff and again, if they're using it mainly for the hose, there's better setups for that. | ||

Christmas Gifts
I gave my mom and dad one for Christmas. I ended up helping them unbox it and assemble it....I must say, I’m VERY impressed with it so far! It’s quiet, powerful, and just a really cool vacuum. Mom loved it, but got half mad at me thinking I spent a lot of money on it for her! She has her Electrolux UltraLux 2000 for deep cleaning, so this will be good for quick pick ups! I’m really glad I was able to get in on this deal!

Kidding
I was joking around. You posted correctly. I've never seen a product sell so quickly just by this thread. It's quite astonishing. I have seen a couple on eBay a few times.
Hoover should write you a thank you for clearing there warehouse. I bet if we contact web sites about promoting great deals I think a few would do it. It would liquidate there inventory and get everyone here what they love which is vacuums. Les | ||

I have not used mine yet because I have been in the process of cleaning my basement and garage which I plan to use for vacuuming videos (i don't have much room to run vacuums around freely yet), so it's still been sitting around. Something fell on it while it was in the basement and it got a little scratch on the nozzle but it is otherwise just as it came out of the box. I do want to use it because it looks really fun, just haven't been able to yet.
I did not catch it that late to pay $9 for it, I think I was one of the ones that got it for the $20 mark. I did get those Hoover SpinScrubs they had for $9.99 though. I bought two. One for my upstairs of my house for my kitchen and bathroom floors, and one for my garage and basement which will likely get twice as filthy (heavy dirt and old paint flakes off the floor there). Just last month I finally found a battery and charger set for it for $27. | ||
