Title: Disappointed after a year
Product review: I have owned this vacuum a little over a year. Initially, the vacuum cleaner was great. I purchased it after reading consumer reviews. However, after two weeks, the plastic switch that changes the vacuum from carpet to bare floor broke--this was fixed for free at the vacuum cleaner shop where I purchased the item. Now that I am no longer under warranty, the on/off switch does not work and neither does the self-propelled switch. An employee at the vacuum cleaner shop says that happens frequently because the switches are plasitc and it's between 40 and 50 dollars to get it fixed. I asked why the Hoover Wind Tunnel is rated so high and he said it's because the motor is good. Needless to say, I am looking to purchase a different brand of vacuum cleaner.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
