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 LOOOOOVEEE to win this. I am 7 months pregnant with my second boy. I live in a house with stairs and our vacuum has no hose to clean the stairs. We also have hardwood floors in the downstairs. This would be so awesome to win!!
JennyA says
I have always bought Bissell vacs and would love to try one of these!

Hi Andrea! I’d love a new vacuum! Trying to keep up with a 2 story house with a husband, child and dog is a big job and my current vacuum cannot handle it – a new one would be super appreciated! Thanks!
Cherrie says
I would love a new Hoover vacuum because my current vacuum is losing its suction!
Gayle Greeley says
I could use this. I have a son that is alergic to 26 of 28 things tested. The more dust we can get out of the house the better 🙂 Thanks for the opportunity and great new site!
Jennifer Dowdy says
I would love a Hoover High performance with 4 kids and so much traffic 🙂
Christine Frits says
This vacuum would be a blessing. I am a single Mommy of four children. We had cement in our home for over a year and I finally saved enough to get floors done. We did the floating laminate and have floor rugs in the room. I have not had the extra money to buy a vacuum for the floors and would LOVE IT!!!

I would love a new Hoover because our current one is about to die so this would be perfect for our family. Two dogs, two kids and a husband can create many large messes 🙂 Thank you for the chance to win one!

Andrea says
I would love a Hoover vacuum because the one I currently have is huge canister vac from the 70’s. I still works but its hard to maneuver and i love the convenience of an upright vacuum!
Jamie says
I would love this! Ours recently broke and we are given one and it does not work. With a dog and a cat at home, there is hair everywhere! This would be wonderful!
Bronwyn says
I’d love a new vacuum cleaner because our one is nearing ‘retirement’. It has had a hard life with our kids!

I would love a new vacuum because mine is almost 14 years old. It has seen it’s better day. I am having a hard time getting the hose to work. It is time for me to get a new one! But other expenses are inquiring so it will have to wait.
Jan says
I’d love a new Hoover, my old one is ready to be retired. It was a Christmas gift from my husband more than a few years ago, but that’s a different story!
Grace says
Would love the Hoover Wind Tunnel Air Steerable.
My youngest daughter big complaint when she does her chore to vacuum the house is that the vacuum is to heavy to push around. But maybe it’s just that she doesn’t want to do it Lol. Thanks
Jamie says
I subscribe and love the new look!! Congrats on the changes. 🙂
Liz says
My dyson just died and I’ve been looking at a Hoover to replace it….winning one would definitely seal the deal. Please.
Jamie says
I would love a new vacuum because the one I have doesn’t hold up to the dog, 2 cats, a 4year old and a fiancé…..I’m the clean one so no need to count me in. Haha!!!
Tracie W says
I would love a new Hoover vacuum! Our home is full of carpet, 2 large dogs, and 2 kids under 2! I have to vacuum pet hair and snack crumbies daily.
Rhonda P. says
I would love a new Hoover vacuum because I am a vacuum-a-holic! I vacuum my floors almost every single day! I cannot stand dirt on my floors…especially when barefoot season arrives. The vacuum I currently have belonged to my sister, and I just can’t justify purchasing one that really “sucks” (pun intended) when the one I have is sufficient and I always have more important things to spend our money on (like food and clothes for my kids).
