Consumer review (epinions.com)

Awesome performance at a great price.

I bought this vacuum back in 2000. Seven years later it is still going strong. The vacuum itself is a bit flimsy: the tool-tray cover has since cracked and fallen off, and opening the canister to replace the bag requires a little care lest you pop it ...

Great suction.Great size.Great price.

Needs two kinds of secondary filtersA bit flimsyCord winder might fail early.

OK vacuum - not impressed

Over the past 20 years I have owned 5 different vacuums including the bagless type (which I will NEVER purchase again). I have also owned the top-of-the-line Hoover (the Kenmore one from Sears). I had a Wind Tunnel upright for several years which I ...

Good suction, long power cord

Some parts are very flimsy - tools are difficult to change.

My Hoover WindTunnel S3630 Is Here! Yeahhhh

Last week I did a lot of research on the Hoover WindTunnel. I checked Epinions and Amazon. I read other online reviews about this item. I found prices for the item anywhere from $229.99 down to the $84.99 that I ended up paying for it. After ...

Two strong chrome wands, Two Brush Agitator, Great edge cleaning!

Canister is lightweight and falls over, carpet setting not strong

Hoover Windtunnel s3630

Summary: this vacuum sucks well but has a number of design flaws that make it more of a nightmare than a dream. You'll live a happier life if you don't buy it. I have owned several different Hoover models and this is the worst by far. Before this ...

Great suction and attractive colors for the body

Poor design, flimsy parts, awkward shape, bad quality control, weakly constructed powerbrush.

Should last longer than 3 years!

When I buy a vacuum, I would like it to last longer than a few years. My mom's vacuum, some vastly expensive silver thing that I still have nightmares about, lasted like 20 years. Mine is still in toddlerhood! Now, I didn't pay tons of money for it,...

It's good to kick around.

Too many!

The Hoover S3639 rocks!

This is a review of the Hoover S3639 canister vac. I'm filing it here under the S3630 category, since it's the closest fit.

Very well designed. Stronger motor than 3630.

None so far.

This has a strong brush that would pull you when you are vacuuming carpeted floor. It has handy handle with switches by your hand. It is very easy to change the bag. It also has very good filtering system. Strong sucking power. It is the best that...

Good brush
