Title: New? or Used???
Review: On May 2nd I purchased a Hoover Self-Propelled Wind Tunnel Ultra Upright Vacuum Cleaner, the model number on the machine was U6401-9RM. The price was $99.99. the condition was listed as NEW. I received it with in 3 days. After I unpacked it and turned it on, smoke poured out from underneath. I took it to an authorized dealer and I was informed that it was a REMANUFACTURED machine, not a NEW one as it was listed on Amazon. They told me that it only had a 6 month warranty not a 1 year as it would have been if it had been NEW as the listing stated. The dealer had to replace the motor and 2 belts (which cost me $7.00)If I had wanted to buy a reconditioned machine, I would have bought one of the ones that Amazon had listed at the time for $59 or $69. I'm afraid it will be a long time before I buy from Amazon again. There apparently is no way to know if the items they are offering are being misrepresented.
Is the review positive or negative?
