UPDATE: This giveaway is now closed.
Congrats to: Elizabeth (rogerseliz@….) and Rebecca (rebecca.lammi@…)
In case you missed it, yesterday was the BIG DAY when I launched my “new” website. So of course, I thought we should celebrate today with a fun giveaway!
Well, it just so happens that my friends over at Hoover recently launched some new products of their own… and they’ve graciously offered to give away TWO of their newest vacuums to help us celebrate!
1. The Hoover High Performance (available at Walmart)
2. The Hoover Wind Tunnel Air Steerable (available on Amazon.com)
And since it’s THAT time of year when we’re all trying to “spring clean” and organize our homes, I figured new vacuums would be the perfect giveaway!
First, let me tell you a bit about these brand new vacuums — and yes, I was lucky enough to receive BOTH vacuums to use in our home. I’m also lucky enough to have a husband who is willing to vacuum — but unfortunately, Hoover can’t help you with that one 🙂
1. Hoover High Performance:
This vacuum really IS “high performance”.
This is how much junk it sucked out of our living room carpet AFTER I vacuumed with our previous vacuum, and I usually vacuum twice a week! (I included my hand in the picture so you could tell just how much dirt and dust this really is)
It’s super powerful, and seamlessly maneuvers from carpet to hard floors with the twist of a knob — making it the perfect tool for our home.
It also has a boatload of “on board” attachments that transform this vacuum into a vicious pet-hair-grabber, crumbs-in-the-crack-finder, and kid-mess-picker-upper.
Or just a fun “light saber” toy for Nora 🙂
The Hoover High Performance is reasonably priced at around $175 and currently available at most Walmart stores.
2. Hoover Wind Tunnel Air Steerable:
Since our house has a basement, a main floor, a second story, and a heated outbuilding (with carpet), we frequently have to lug our vacuum up and down stairs… and to the outbuilding to vacuum, so I’ve been on the look-out for a light-weight, affordable vacuum that still has LOTS of suction and power.
Well, the Hoover Air Steerable is all that and more — plus, it’s super easy to maneuver around (and under) furniture.
It’s super powerful, but extremely easy to lift up and down stairs, or wherever you need it (it’s less than 14 lbs.) I’ve actually used it a couple times to vacuum out our cars because it has a nice long hose and great attachment options.
The last time I checked, the Hoover Wind Tunnel Air Steerable was on sale for only $159 via Amazon.com!
Hoover has a really fabulous new marketing campaign for these two vacuums — I absolutely LOVE the commercials!
This is the High Performance commercial:
This is the Air Steerable commercial:
Aren’t they clever!
I think moms and dads everywhere will resonate with these commercials 🙂
OK OK, let’s get to the giveaway…

I would really love to win a new vacuum cleaner. Mine is very old and my 2 granddaughters who live with me have allergies so I’m sure a new vacuum would be a big help with the allergies..
Thanks for the chance to win.

I would love to win this because my husband and I have been dragging our feet on exposing the hardwoods. 3 years later I am resigned to the fact that the carpet is staying for quite sometime. 🙁 So our cheep o vacuum we bought as a temporary solution is grossly inadequate with all that the two little ones and the dog can throw at it.

I would love a Hoover! I’m a new mom & have become a big fan of your posts about how to keep the cleaning & clutter under wraps. This would totally do the trick for the dirt & crumbs! 🙂
Thanks, Hoover, for the giveaway items for this post!!
Abby says
I would LOVE a new Hoover vacuum! I have 2 dogs, a messy husband and a toddler! I would LOVE to be able to pick up all that nasty dog hair and crumbs!
Heather P says
I have a Quad level home and have to lug ours up and down between the 4 levels! It would be awesome to have a second one to use!
I love your site!

I’d love a new vacuum because I have both pet and kid messes daily. Our current vacuum constantly breaks and, when it isn’t broken, does not do a good job with pet hair.

I’d love a new vacuum! We’re renting a house with the oldest carpet ever – it needs some serious vacuum rehab to get it looking decent!
Grace says
My current vacuum is horrible and does a really poor job. I’ve been looking to get a new one and these looks great!

Monti Knudsen says
Love Hoover vacuum’s! I grew up with one in our home and even though everyone seems to love the Dyson’s I have not converted 😉 We just bought a new home and its 3 stories so I’m getting tired having to lug around my older Hoover up all the stairs. A smaller lighter weight one would sure do the trick 🙂

I would love a new hoover because:
a – The world has pretty much decided that our vacuum is obsolete and we are having the hardest time finding the right bags for it.
b – I would love to have a vacuum for upstairs and one for downstairs. With 2 kids, we do A LOT of vacuuming and it is killer hauling ours up and down the stairs.
Monica says
We are in need of a second vacuum for our second floor. We gave our old one to our daughter who had no vacuum at all for her new apartment. I guess she is the one that really needs a new vacuum!
Kelly says
I’d love a new vacuum because ours doesn’t work very well!
Jennifer says
I would love to win this because I have both wood floors and carpet and it looks like it would work for both. My current vacuum I have had for years and it’s time for a new one.
Victoria VS says
Would love a new vacuum – would like to be able to leave one downstairs in the family room area or give this one as a gift to someone as a GREAT surprise!!!
Nora says
We have a dog and our whole house has carpet. Would love to win, thanks for the giveaway

I would love to win, because my vacuum is starting to lose its suction and I keep the filter clean.
Stacey says
PET HAIR… need I say more?
Dorinda says
Oh, I need a new vacuum. Mine is 10 yrs. old and I have allergies .
Melissa says
I would love a new Hoover vaccuum because we have 3 animals living in our house and we can never have anything too high performance helping us pick up after them!!! I think the attachments would help us clean off our living room furniture after the cats have been sitting on them all day.
