This is a great vacuum for use in your garage, car, and home. It has great suction power, has a very long hose to reach many places, comes with multiple, handy attachments, which make it easy to reach many high places, and has a sturdy metal canister. It's easy to empty---no bags necessary----just open up the bottom and empty contents directly into the trash. It's also easy to take off the wall and take it into your home or anywhere else if ever needed--------definitely better than a shop vac. We've had it for years, and it's still A1 like when we first bought it. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!

A few weeks ago, I used my brother's GUV to vacuum the car, and I realized how convenient it was. I had a 60th birthday recently and bro asked what I would like for a gift..... the Hoover GUV instantly came to mind. I got it last night, installed it in a few minutes between the studs of my 2.5-car garage, and tested it..... and tested it...... and tested it. I cannot tell you how pleased I am with this gift. I cleaned the whole garage, and not only the floor, but the walls. We have a lot of spider webs, garden dirt, small pine cones, and other debris that builds up along the walls and floors. Generally, I will blow the dirt out with my blower, but need to wear a dust mask, plug my ears, and shower afterwards. The GUV makes cleaning so much easier. Plusses: It is quiet. No need for ear plugs, etc. It is well-built. Don't know where it was made, but this is a sturdy piece of equipment. The attachments are also well-made of heavy plastic and rubber. The general-purpose tool has some nubs on it that 'scour' carpeting and get it really deep-cleaned. The suction is very good. Even with a 30-foot hose, it sucks up better than my shop vac. Cleaning it is very easy. Just dump the bottom container. I haven't cleaned the lifetime filter yet. The hose length is great. I can reach every corner of my garage, and every side of my cars. Negatives: None yet. If you need to buy a gift for someone who 'has everything', then consider this vacuum. It is one of the best gifts i've received, and I know I will use it often. In fact, I'm thinking about buying another one for the basement shop area. This is a fine product.

This is a very good vacuum. It has a really long hose and great suction. I find myself vacuuming the garage all the time even when it is not that dirty. I think I have a condition.
