Hi,
Stopped at the Hoover Company website to look for the new upright MH mentioned. Didn't find it but I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Hoover's made a serious attempt at a canister vacuum. So serious in fact it seems to have borrowed a few things already done by Miele but what's wrong with that? Nice thing is that the price on the website is only $299 and the machine comes with a three-year warranty. It uses the Wind Tunnel power nozzle (Mole will probably know this nozzle's repair record and efficiency). It might be the answer for some of the folks looking for a canister under the $400 mark.
I've included the following link to allow interested parties to browse the cleaner's user guide -- http://www.hoover.com/pdfs/manuals/S3670.pdf
Best,
Venson
