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 🙂

I would LOVE a new vac. As mine has lost it’s power steering feature…it is next to impossible to push it around! No one but me can do it because it is so heavy!

Our vacuum cleaner is a little over 2 years old and has lost half of its suction. Also, it randomly makes a LOUD noise which scares my kids. I think it’s going to completely break any day now. I would love a new vacuum cleaner!

Tammy G says
Every time I touch my sweeper it falls apart!!! A new sweeper would be wonderful! Thank you.
Pat says
I think either of the Hoover vacuums would be wonderful. No more lugging out the old canister vacuum to clean after my 2 pups and my grandpuppy when she comes to visit. These appear to be super efficient and handy to grab out of the closet and go!
Dawn dk says
I would love a new vacuum cleaner as mine is so old it does not work very good anymore.
Tanya says
I have a Bissell and it is about to die. My wires are shredded on it and I definately could use a new Vaccuum.
Thank you for the oportunity on this.
Anita says
My 16 year old vacuum is almost on it’s leg. Also my 13 year old would love a lighter vacuum 🙂

I really need a new Hoover because I’m sure I have at least as much dirt in my carpet as you did, Andrea……and my current vacuum just isn’t pulling it out for me.

BECAUSE I NEED A LIGHT WEIGHT VACUUM THAT ACTUALLY WORKS!!!!! YES PLEASE!
Desiree says
Andrea- As a mom to four growing boys I would really really appreciate a light weight heavy duty vacuum cleaner. Lugging it up an down the stairs is a drag and my dog Gracie has raced past me several times to get out of the way as I have either walked up or down the flight of stairs. Thank you so much~
Ann Marie says
I would love a new Hoover vacuum because the one I currently have is over 5 years old and it doesn’t clean up the dirt and dust very well.
