Frosty Festivities: Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Vacuum Review & {GIVEAWAY!!}

Since my son became mobile, he has become quite messy. Some days I feel like I am just following him around picking up toys, crumbs, and disasters. At the end of the day, I love to feel like my home is fresh and clean just by vacuuming. Unfortunately, my previous vacuums have never done the job quite like the Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Vacuum. This new vacuum is super lightweight without any loss of power or suction.
The day my new vacuum arrived, I immediately wanted to try it out. I vacuumed just the family room and my son's room (which had been vacuumed 2 days prior) and was astonished at how much dirt, hair, food, and nastiness the Hoover picked up. My carpet looked brand new again, standing upright instead of being flattened in high traffic areas.
A close up of our filth. This vacuum sucked up more in one use than our previous vacuum sucked up in a month. Pretty impressive. The WindTunnel technology has air passages that trap dirt and channel it into the dirt cup, minimizing blow back or scattering what you vacuumed up back to your floor.
I love how everything about this vacuum is easy, including the emptying out the dirt. The container snaps right off the vacuum and twists open. The best part of this vacuum is that it has a rinsable filter and a high quality HEPA filter that never needs to be replaced with proper care.
Because every mom could always use things that make their life just a little bit easier, the Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Vacuum has a cord rewind. I am in love with this feature! I just simply press a button and hold the cord so it doesn't whip around. The cord winds itself within about 10-15 seconds.
The hose is released by a button and locks back into place. I also am impressed with this feature because my previous vacuum's hose would release itself while I was vacuuming and spit out everything I was vacuuming. You can also attach some great tools to make cleaning even easier and more effective:
  • Air-Powered Hand Tool - puts hard-to-reach cleaning in the palm of your hand
  • 12-Inch extension Wand - extends reach of the hose
  • Crevice Tool - helps clean nooks and crannies
  • Upholstery/Dusting Brush - helps get furniture clean
Instead of dragging the cord along with you as you vacuum, you can pop it in the cord clip. Genius.
The power button is conveniently located on the handle, but not in a place where you might accidentally turn it off while vacuuming.
The green button turns red when it is time to rinse your filter so you never have to worry or wonder.
You can adjust the settings on your vacuum for better suction depending on your high carpet or low carpet/bare floor.
BUY IT!
You can purchase your own Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Rewind Vacuum for $129.99!

This looks so awesome! Living in an old apartment with gross carpets, I would really love to get my floors cleaner and not feel like they need shampooed every week! Another cool vacuum would be the WindTunnel Bagless Canister with Bonus Hand Vac (found here: http://www.hoover.com/product.aspx?model=S3755080&ds=false).
