Hi we've had a candy for 10 years which has now broken so we've bought a hoover 1600 spin 7kg drum for 299.We didn't do any research and now I spot a thread here which slags off hoovers.Does anyone have a hoover and is happy with it?Or has anyone else had bad results with theirs please?We haven't used it yet as the pipe was too short and dh has siliconed it onto another bit so it reaches.I am incredibly worried about using it too incase it leaks all over the wooden floor and ruins it.Dh can be a bit of a botch merchant bless him,he does try his best I know.
