Verdict

The Hoover HE120PET 011 is a corded canister vacuum cleaner powered by a 700W motor, operating at a noise level of 79 dB and consuming an average of 28 kWh annually. It utilizes a 2.5-litre EPA dust bag collection system combined with a washable EPA filtration system to manage household allergens effectively. Key pros include its lightweight 3.7 kg frame, an expansive 8.2 m cleaning radius with automatic cable rewind, and an integrated accessory suite that features a specialized mini pet turbo nozzle alongside carpet, parquet, and crevice tools. On the downside, the vacuum features a fixed, non-adjustable power control rather than variable electronic speeds, and its rely-on-bags design results in recurring operating costs for replacement bags.
