Hoover Upright Vacuum Cleaner, HU500GHM, HEPA, Long Reach, Multi-cyclonic, H-UPRIGHT 500 Reach

Product Information

It's mediocre on hard floors, particularly laminate, where it tends to push dirt around rather than remove it. The only good point is how simple it is to transition to hard floors from carpets by flicking the switch. With the auto button and separate brush bar on, we were impressed with how powerfully it picked up dirt and debris and felt it change suction power between the tiled floor in the kitchen, laminate floor in the hallway and carpet in the living room. The pet hair brush is largely effective, but at times we found that pet-hair got stuck to the underside of the brush by static charge rather than removed by the vacuum. Things are better in upright mode, where the vacuum’s height-adjustable wand makes it comfortable for pretty much anyone to use.

It’s decent enough on carpets, but struggles on hard floors and loses suction power as the canister fills up. The rotating brush bar is the best feature, as you can turn it on or off depending on the floor type you’re cleaning. The Hoover H-Upright 500 Sensor Plus is one of the latest models to join its upright vacuum cleaner collection. You have one type of flooring in your home: While this machine works well on all types of flooring, if you have one type of flooring in your home, it may not be worth paying more for a feature you don’t need. The hose attachment is totally separate so you have to plug it into the back of the Hoover each time you want to use it which I found a bit annoying if I wanted to keep switching between upright and hose.So, whether you’re looking for an upright hoover for hardwood floors, plush carpets, or keeping your home pet-hair free, you’re sure to find the perfect option in our powerful upright vacuum cleaner collection. Our simple interest bearing finance options allow you to spread the cost of your purchase over months. NOTE: It is recommended to empty the dust bin after each use or when dust is up to the max fill lines. The convenient, quick release button is conveniently located on the handle, it's easy to use and specially designed to make sure you do not come into contact with any dust.

With its sleek blue and grey body, the Hoover H-Upright 500 Sensor Plus vacuum cleaner is stylish in form and comes with lots of useful design features. For something that’s easily portable up the stairs you may want to consider a cordless or cylinder model instead. Also the roller brush has a separate on/off switch which gives you the option to turn it off when doing wooden floors that have been allowed to get very dirty so you don't want the roller brush scraping the dirt on the wooden floor. H-UPRIGHT 500 Plus is a range of corded bagless upright vacuum cleaners with automatic Floor Sensor Technology for optimal performance on all floor types and with multi-cyclonic dust separation technology for no loss of suction.This information does not usually identify you, but it does help companies to learn how their users are interacting with the site. For homes with a range of floor types, the Hoover H-Upright 500 Sensor Plus vacuum makes for a powerful solution. However as with all modern bag-less cleaners the weight has been moved much higher so initially you feel it on the wrist. Still, there’s an on/off switch that’s easy to reach at the base of the handle, along with a button for operating the rotating brush bar.

The H-Upright 500 Plus comes with two washable HEPA filters (one in the top of the bin and one at the front of the cleaner), which is great news for allergy sufferers. However, you need a screwdriver to remove the brush bar for cleaning, which isn’t the easiest method.We test both modes in a variety of other cleaning scenarios, such as on stairs or in a car, and consider how easy it is to use. Even the long 10m power cord has a tedious manual rewind, although we probably wouldn’t expect an automatic rewind function from such a budget vacuum. Overall, the Hoover H-UPRIGHT 500 is a reliable and efficient vacuum cleaner that delivers powerful suction and convenient features for effective cleaning.

Spend a little more and you can pick up the Dyson Small Ball Allergy, which comes with a wider selection of tools and is easier to switch between upright and tool mode.

But I liked the way it was described and the features particularly the 10m cable which stops you having to switch plugs when doing the job.

Once complete, I had a relatively clean path through the middle; there was a faint line at the sides, however, where just surface-level dirt had been picked up. While the side suction on the head ensured it picked up dirt alongside the corner of the room right up to the skirting boards, it did struggle with larger pieces of debris such as cardboard and paper, however.
