When I was younger, my idea of a great gift was fashionable clothing, jewelry, electronics, etc... pretty much something lavish and fun.
Interesting how the times have changed, isn't it? Now that I'm a homeowner, wife, and mother, I enjoy those luxury items but really focus more on practical gifts. Things like kitchen appliances, home decor, and items for my kids are on the top of my list for Mother's Day this year. Pretty much as long as it is great quality and can make my life easier, then I'm all for it.
And having a long lasting, easy to use, extremely lightweight, versatile vacuum cleaner to rid my house of the dirt, dust, and crumbs that are continually appearing? That must mean that Mother's Day came early in the form of the WindTunnel Air bagless upright from Hoover.

Offering a complete line of machines for general and special-purpose vacuuming, Hoover has everything from full-size uprights and canisters to deep cleaners to hard-floor cleaners and more. Their patented technology and modern designs have been seen before, but with the introduction of the WindTunnel Air I knew I would now have a way to get my home clean quickly and easily and get back to what was really important in my life.




And boy, can this vacuum clean everywhere! First, the body reclines all the way to the floor, meaning that I can reach under every table or piece of furniture much further that with a traditional upright... how in the world do so many crumbs get underneath the couch?



Other intuitive features that Hoover thought to include are the convenient power and brushroll controls (easily located within reach), a durable handle on top of the dirt cup to make carrying up stairs easy, and a clear nozzle with no-scuff bumper. It's great being able to see right into the brush or cup to keep track of what is going in or might be stuck, as both my husband and I are notorious for sucking up things that we shouldn't.


And this isn't a filter that you're going to have to constantly be spending more money for replacements, this lifetime HEPA filter can be easily removed and rinsed in the sink. I love a product with minimal maintenance!


With a retail price of $169.99 (available on Amazon or from retail locations near you), this vacuum has comparable features and performance to similar uprights that cost a considerable amount more. For all the power you need to get your floors clean, Hoover has invented a way to give peace of mind that you are getting your home truly clean without spending unnecessary time and effort.
This Mother's Day, give Mom a high quality gift that she'll appreciate for years to come. Or, better yet, give her a helper to do the work for her so that she can really enjoy some free time...
