Product Information

There’s also a 2-in-1 dusting brush/crevice tool combo, which is effectively a crevice tool with some brushes on the end. Suction power is adjustable, its easy to maneuver, long hose lets u reach the far areas and so much more. The vacuum also comes with a manual suction control built into the body of the vacuum, which we found could be easily increased or decreased by hand depending on how powerful you want the vacuum to be. For those with much-loved pets, our upright vacuum cleaners also come in ‘pet editions’, with additional pet brushes – so cleaning up after your dog or cat has never been easier.

You can also turn the brush bar on and off manually, the latter being particularly useful on thick-pile carpets or hard floors. JustAnswer is not intended or designed for EMERGENCY questions which should be directed immediately by telephone or in-person to qualified professionals. The Hoover H-Upright 500 Plus (HU500SGP 001) offers all the functionality of a normal upright vacuum cleaner, plus an automated floor sensor, too, so you don’t need to work out the right brush mode for switching between carpet and hard floors. Starting life on the consumer PC press back in 1998, David has been at the forefront of technology for the past 20 years. This pet brush has a motorised bristle bar, which is far more effective at lifting embedded pet hair from sofas, stairs and car interiors.

Good performance, an Automatic mode and neat onboard storage help make this a decent vacuum cleaner – but attaching the hose to use the accessories is super-fiddly. An extra-long hose for making stairs easy and a duster/crevice attachment for harder to reach areas.

We were able to get right into the corners of the sofa and give it a good once over before deciding that was enough for one day and it was time to sit back and put our feet up.

Finally, you can install the wiper blade at the rear to increase suction to the floor, although this does make the cleaner much harder to push around, particularly on carpet. While it provides decent performance on carpets, it struggles on hard floors and is inconvenient to use. 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.The Hoover H-Upright 500 Sensor Plus is one of the latest models to join its upright vacuum cleaner collection.

Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. First, I sprinkled a teaspoon of flour on regular carpet, then sweeping backwards and forwards through the mess with the cleaner. If you’ve collected a fair bit of fluff and hair then you may need to open the top flap, pull out the cone and give it all a good shake.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. The swivel floor nozzle is meant to make it easier to move around furniture, but it actually makes the weight harder to balance. We know how frustrating it can be to get hair caught in your vacuum, which is why we’ve introduced ANTI-TWIST™ technology to our upright vacuums. It also has multi-cyclonic technology that separates dust and pushes it away from the filters, helping to extend their lifespan. The better your problem and question is described, the easier it is for other Hoover owners to provide you with a good answer.

Aside from its wide cleaning radius and option to turn off the brush bar, we don’t think the Hoover H-Upright 500 Reach is a user-friendly vacuum cleaner.The only good point is how simple it is to transition to hard floors from carpets by flicking the switch. The rotating brush bar can be switched off easily so the vacuum can glide more gently over deep pile rugs. The process is fiddly and a little time-consuming, particularly next to rival cleaners such as the Dyson Small Ball Allergy, where you can just quickly pull out the hose. The vacuum also has a telescoping handle, allowing users to adjust the height for comfortable cleaning. Our pet-friendly upright vacuums have impressive power, with specialised brushes to loosen and lift out even the most stubborn pet hair.
