Amazon.com Review:
The Tempo WidePath features a 15-inch cleaning path for super fast vacuuming when you need it the most. Plus, the WidePath cleans indoor air while you vacuum, thanks to an innovative allergen filtration system that traps 100 percent of dust mites, 99.98 percent of ragweed, and common grass pollens for cleaner breathing and fresher air. A powerful, 12 amp motor provides ample suction and doesn't leave anything behind. A brilliant headlight illuminates the cleaning path to ensure thorough vacuuming. Onboard tool storage keeps attachments, such as a dusting brush, furniture nozzle, crevice tool, and two extension wands in close reach. A smaller profile (approximately 33-1/4 by 18-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches) and lighter overall weight makes the Tempo WidePath easy to push, and easier to maneuver around and under furniture, too. And, your purchase is covered by a Hoover one-year warranty. Get a Tempo WidePath, and never get behind on the housework again! --Brian Olson

So far, so great!
This vacuum has great suction and almost glides itself across the floor. I feel my carpets are cleaner than they have been in a long time. Easy assembly also. A few reviewers have said it wasn't so wonderful but you'll never find complete satisfaction, even with the most expensive vacuum. Buy this one instead~

not bad for the price...
the vacuum part works well but the hose is useless. the suction is not strong enough to pick anything up.

Good suction, but hard on plush carpets
I wanted a vacuum that had good suction and I definitely got it with this Hoover. It looks a little chintzy, but it is powerful. In fact, it is almost too powerful. My longer rugs take a bit of a beating from it, pulling out loose threads. This also makes it difficult to push over the longer rugs. When you first start the machine, it sucks so quickly and powerfully that you can't move it forward without significant effort. But once you get past the initial strain, it works great. The attachments also work really well, but I wish the hose was a little longer. I haven't tried to replace a bag yet, so I don't know how difficult that is.
All in all, I'd say a very useful machine, but its probably best on shorter carpets.

Love this vacuum!
This vacuum is such a value. I had researched vacuums before I bought a new one. I didn't want to spend a whole lot so I read consumer reports. This was rated very highly for price, suction, pet hair, etc. I totally agree with it all. I would definitely recommend this vacuum to someone else. In fact, I did. I told our good friends about it. They had mentioned that they were looking for the same things we were and they bought one. They too have been very pleased with their purchase. Buy it. You will like it.

Very Happy with my Purchase
The Hoover Widepath is a great product at a great price. I highly recommend buying this vacuum cleaner.
