Hoover U5140-900 Tempo Widepath Bagged Upright Vacuum
Rating:
Product Description
The Tempo WidePath features a 15-inch cleaning path for super fast vacuuming when you need it the most. Plus, the WidePath cleans indoor air while you vacuum, thanks to an innovative allergen filtration system that traps 100 percent of dust mites, 99.98 percent of ragweed, and common grass pollens for cleaner breathing and fresher air. A powerful, 12 amp motor provides ample suction and doesn’t leave anything behind. A brilliant headlight illuminates the cleaning path to ensure thorough vacuuming. Onboard tool storage keeps attachments, such as a dusting brush, furniture nozzle, crevice tool, and two extension wands in close reach. A smaller profile (approximately 33-1/4 by 18-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches) and lighter overall weight makes the Tempo WidePath easy to push, and easier to maneuver around and under furniture, too. And, your purchase is covered by a Hoover one-year warranty. Get a Tempo WidePath, and never get behind on the housework again!
Customer Reviews:
Amazing Value!
By Zen Williston
Despite the rave reviews here on amazon and on other sites, I was not expecting much with such a low price. My expectations were certainly rewarded with an amazing value, a great vacuum, and the usual Amazon speedy delivery. It is really hard to believe that such a good product could be so inexpensive, even if it is made in Mexico. The build quality is excellent. However, for someone tall, like me, (6′4″) the handle is not long enough, the bag is on the small side, and the unit is noisy (but not any more so than other vacuums I have had that were 3x the price), but those are the only negatives after a week of use. Instead of smelling dust while vacuuming, the air coming out of the vacuum is actually fresher and cleaner smelling than the air in the room. Searching amazon, one can find belts for $3 or less and bags less than $1 in quantity, so the unit should be inexpensive to operate. If I get five years out of the unit, I will be more than satisfied.
Works great!
By James
Our Tempo works just fine and has been for months. We use it at least twice a week seeing how we have five dogs. Other than the bags being a bit small everything works great. We like this Hoover Tempo for these reasons:
1-No stink! With all of it’s filters and hypo bags it doesn’t smell up the house like many of our other ones did.
2-So much suction it seems to want to inhale the carpets…watch your small throw rugs because it Will eat them.
3-Edge clean is excellent. I can see it pull in stuff that is at least 3 inches away from the beater bar.
4-PRICE! We had a 500 buck vacuum and this one works better. Plain and simple.
5-Bag system is perfect. We went through that bagless thing with other vacuums. What a mess they were. Empty out the canister and get a bath in dust and dirt. Let the sneezing start. Then you had to clean that inner dust filter (Big pain in the butt) or buy new ones that cost as much as this entire Tempo vacuum. Odd thing about those “inner” filters…you need to use a vacuum to clean them, or beat them on a big rock. I found it really dumb to need another vacuum to clean my $500 one.
6-Price. Oh sure, some of the attachments seem a little lightweight but they do their job perfectly.
7-It’s light. When we first got it I thought it wouldn’t clean due to its being so light. This is a wonderful feature when you need to do stairs or just carry the thing around.
I could go on and on but, hey, it’s just a vacuum right?
Well, I’m a 53 year old guy and this is the first vacuum that we have ever owned that I don’t mind using. I used to hide when vacuuming needed to be done or felt like I needed a dust mask when my wife used our other high dollar vacuums.
Why no five star rating? I feel the extension hose could have been a bit longer and the cord winding “pegs” are in a weird spot on the bottom.
But to save 400 bucks? I thought it was worth a try and we haven’t looked back since.
Also, bought one of these for my daughter a few months ago and she reports hers is working just fine too.

I have had a cleaning business for almost 30 years and have tried almost every type of vac on the market and personally I would take a Hoover over anything out there today, yes even the famous Dyson. I do not need space age I need simple and effective and this Tempo vac from Hoover , if taken care of, will suck the rug up. It has just the right amt. of xtra tools on board,is lite enough to put in my jeep, takes a fair amt. of bumping and banging around and yes, it uses bags. I prefer a bagged vac and always will because it is cleaner and easier. Baggless vacs must be cleaned completely almost everytime they are emptied and the filters changed, which most people do not do. I bought 2 of these at the same time and would buy 2 more if I could. Great price, great value for the money.
