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…

Nothing escapes the attention of my 14 month old son – including crumbs he dropped from his high chair that my vacuum cleaner DIDN’T pick up. I would love to have a vacuum cleaner that actually cleaned!

I would love a new vacuum. Ours is pretty old and I am not confident it gets our carpets as clean as they could be.

I have always had to get the cheapest vacuum that I could find that would work. I would love to have one that is actually nice.

We would put a vacuum to good use in our new house. I like the ability to change between carpet and hard flooring easily.

Our current vacuum is hurtin’. I would love a new powerful Hoover! ๐
Sarah Grace says
My roommate and I would love to win a vacuum, well because we don’t have one! We live in an apartment downtown with awful carpet and it’s terribly embarrassing to have people over when carpet balls are all over the place. I am a college student living on a minimal at best budget, and I honestly don’t have funds to buy a good vacuum at all for us. To win a vacuum would honestly be one of the best things to happen to me all year.
DeAnna says
I would like a Hoover vacuum just because it looks cool and I might vacuum more (plus my current one is super loud).

I would love a new vacuum, I just can’t seem to find one I like…..These look excellent.!

I am tired of vacuums that don’t WORK…..would love to have a new product that will do the job. Love the site!!
Emily says
I would like a new vacuum because it would encourage me to vacuum more often…actually, that’s not true, but maybe my floors would get cleaner to not need as vacuuming as often!! ๐

I would give one of these to my mom. She was just telling me yesterday that she always has such bad luck with finding a good vacuum.

I subscribe via RSS. And as a side note, I love your new website design and new name! It’s very easy to find posts and information, too.
Sonja Z says
I would give either of these vacuum cleaners to my mom because she deserves it. She doesn’t have much luck with vacuum cleaners and has trouble finding a vacuum to clean up pet hair well.
Dana says
I’ve recently introduced my daughter-in-law to your site. She is in love…as am I! She could really use a new vacuum as she is cleaning up behind her active, messy eating, adorable son.

I need a vacuum to keep up with my crumb creating kids! It’s like having a herd of ferrets around. Imagine the devastation after I serve something like cornbread to my 6, 4 and 2 year olds. Oh the humanity!!

I would love to win a Hoover vacuum so that I can give it to my daughter and son in law who cannot afford an excellent vacuum. I have always loved Hoover vacuums.
Thank you for sharing all of your wisdom. Love every blog post ๐

I would love to win one of these because my vacuum is more than 15 years old and held
together with gorilla glue and safety wire… lol
