update: I did try to run cruiser first and then use Dyson. Dyson picks up a little more in term of dirty ( not much). But when I pour baking soda first and start vacuuming baking soda, Dyson is a winner. Dyson picks up a lot more baking soda than cruiser. With Cruise, I vacuuming at least once a day and always pick up a full bin. It is so convenient to carry it up and down to vacuum the entry way. I really enjoy the clean carpet daily now. Like other review indicates, the material looks cheap. I hope the unit will last long time. I have my old Dyson for over 10 years now and it still works very well. I hope this one at least last longer than Robotics.
=======================================================================================================
I don't usually leave product reviews unless I am very happy with the purchase. My condo is only 1300 sq but I own 5 vacuums. Two of them are Dyson. One is old animal DC25 and one is hand held cordless. I also have bissell shampooer, robotics 7 and now hoover cordless cruise. I bought cruise cordless because robotics is broken after 1.5 years in service. We have three cats and a dog. Robotics was running on the daily basis and still picked up a full bin every day until it runs over my dog poos one day and it stop. Robotics customer service was offering me a deep discount for the same unit but I decided not to go with it. I am just tired of looking for robotics almost every day to see where it stuck and pull hairs out of it every other day. It was nice to have a robotics that running on the daily basis but once a month, I also need to replace some parts to get it working perfectly. Our home has entry way and then stairs right after the entry way. Once we come up the stairs, everything is on the same floor. Robotics works perfectly on the second floor. With a dog, it's hard to keep dirty out of the entry way and stairs when we have to walk our dog at least three times a day. That's why we need something lighter and easy to use. I was researching between the hoover cruiser and the latest Dyson cordless few months ago. After reading many reviews between Dyson 8 and the hoover cruise cordless, I was leaning to Dyson but don't feel like spending $400 for another vacuum. So I purchased a dyson cordless hand held from amazon. The unit is very lousy but it works well on the entry way and stairs. It only comes with two attachments but my old dyson attachments also fit on this hand held. The hand held is easy to pick up small stuff around pets' food area and it also work in our cars ( thought it doesn't work perfectly) but I have to be on my knees all the time when I use it.
Last week, Hoover Cordless was sales on amazon. it was less than 100 with taxes ( CA). I need something that is easy to use since my robotics is gone now. So I ordered it and figured that I can always return it if I am not happy with it. I was very skeptical when I received the unit. It only took me 5 minutes to put everything together. The material of this vacuum looks cheap but it is also very light to carry around the house. The instruction indicates 6 hours charge before the first usage. I charged it for two hours and then I started testing it. The vacuum was very weak after two hours charges and I was ready to put it back to the box and send it back to amazon but I decided to charge it over night. After over night charge, it only last for about 5 to 7 minutes which is shorter than my hand held dyson. I put it back to charge for another hour while I was walking my dog. It works a lot better this time. Hoover cruise is not that loud and you would think that it doesn't clean as well as Dyson until you take a closer look at how much dirty it picks up. It is very easy to use. It only took me 5 minutes to vacuum the entire 1300 sq home and I take this vacuum to the entry way easily. This vacuum actually picks up more hairs between the carpet and baseboard than Dyson. I vacuumed once this morning and one more time when I got home tonight. It picks up quit a bite both times and my carpet is very clean tonight. I have been thinking to use my hoover to run the entire home once and then use my Dyson animal to run it again to see how much Dyson will pick up. I will update my review once I complete the experiment.
What I like about Hoover:
(1) The Hoover has a lever that can be pushed to hold the on button in the on position. I read from one review that it doesn't bother them that much
about holding down the on button all the time. For me, I can't stand it. This is definitely a big plus for Hoover. My finger is always hurt when I have to hold down the on button all the time.
(2) Maneuverability: It works well on both carpet and tile floor. At beginning, I thought the Hoover cruise swivels unexpectedly -- it doesn't always go where you want it to go but it works very well to pick up things between carpet and base board. It picks up dirty easily than the hand held Dyson and my old Dyson animal. One of the reasons I bought Robotic is that none of my vacuum can reach underneath of my bed and one of my cats spends most of her life down there. It has a lot of hairs. Hoover actually can reach underneath of our bed.
(3) Noise: Both my Dyson hand held unit and old Dyson are very loud even with hand held. My dog always runs away when I turn on Dyson. She seems ok with Hoover cruise. Because Hoover is not that lousy, I thought the suction is that as powerful as Dyson until I check dust bin.
(4) Dirty bin: Dyson is easier to dump the dirt out of the bin but the dirty bin of my hand held doesn't seal very tight and you have to push it in. There were few times that Dyson bin just opens itself and all dirt came out of the bin. The additional filter inside of Hoover bin makes it harder to dump dirt out of the bin but I don't have any problem of dirty bin seal with Hoover.
What I like about Dyson
(1) Appearance: Dyson's products always have the best look and best design but it also comes with the price tag. I have my old Dyson for years and it is very solid built. Hoover cruise cordless seems relatively cheap look comparing to Dyson.
(2) Battery life and charge: Dyson battery lasts longer and charges quicker than hoover. I don't charge my hand held a lot. Once It is charged, it lasts for a while even you don't use it. On the other hand, Hoover seems losing the power even the unit has not been used. Battery is or will be the core technology of the Dyson since they are building ecar. I expect more of their new technology from their battery.

Customer Review: This Hoover Vacuum is disgraceful.

Bad design. Needs to be CONSTANTLY taken apart completely ...
Bad design. Needs to be CONSTANTLY taken apart completely and cleaned out. Pet hair is immediately sucked into the very top section with the blue filter, rather than collecting in the bottom part (which is the part that is easily opened and dumped). When stuff is sucked up into the top section with the filter, you have to take everything apart, clean that out, put it back together, and then start vacuuming again. Way more trouble than it’s worth. Today I noticed it has no suction at all. I have only owned this for 60 days! Garbage. Any convenience I hoped to gain from the cordless feature and easily reached wall bracket is offset by the need to take the thing apart every time I use it. And now, I do believe it’s broken. I’ll have to take it apart yet again to see if I can get it working again. Wish I had returned it within the return period.
