"I know some people here dont like Hoover Candy but personally IMHO I think that it is great how Candy really have positioned Hoover as a feature brand". What do you mean by this Arrrooohhh? Your pleased that hoovers not what it was? I'm not. Though their current offerings are way better than anything they brought out under candy influence. Interesting the Vortmax. It seems when hoover-candy release a range they start with a white door, then get upgraded slightly with the chrome doors and a few extra features when they do the next range! Though i like the chrome doors! I wonder how genuine the capacity is. I mean like you say, they is only so much that can be done within a standard cabinet size! Darren |

I didnt mean for this to come across as negative. I'm a huge hoover fan. Always have, Always will. But i feel the takeover couldn't have come at a worse time. Hoover always made innovative, stylish, great performing machines, and with the takeover there was alot of negativity thrown at hoover because of poor reliability. Don't get me wrong Hoovers went wrong on their own. But when you inject abit of candy into it, it doesn't help matters. So yea before anyone took that wrong i didnt mean for it to come across negatively. I was just trying to get abit of expansion on arrrooohhh's point of view:D Darren |

Arrrooohhh, interesting what you wrote. I do agree. they could be alot worse. I just feel i was robbed of a few more years of innovative products! I remember seeing your hootag on here before, i had a similar version while living with an ex partner and it never went wrong while i lived there. So i dont have any first hand experience of why the current ones are labelled "crap" "unreliable" i was fairly impressed with it. the 1600rpm was way quieter than my hoovers at home lol. Im still toying with buying a nextra..and from islingtonsteves pics and videos i've seen of his vision, they do look rather fun! I wonder if the vortmax will make it out in the next hoover range here. which im guessing will be may/june time as it usually is for them. Darren |
