79.6  Consumer ratings for the Hoover Pet Rewind UH70210 are not bad but not stellar.  It is a bagless vacuum and is designed for houses with pets (it comes with 2 specialized pet hair tools).  Owners like the auto-cord rewind, the attachments and the washable filters, however there are some that feel the dirt canister is problematic and the hose is a little short.   It should be noted that some owners really like this machine and there are a number of very good ratings but frequent low ratings ultimately drag the overall score down.

A review of consumer input from several sources provides the following Hoover SH20030 owner likes and dislikes:

PROS
- Automatic power cord rewind
- Washable HEPA filter
- Brushbar with on/off capability
- Not too heavy
- Easy to assemble
- Good at vacuuming up pet hair
- Attachments work well
- Effective on both hard surfaces and carpet

CONS
- Dirt canister is a little small
- Dirt canister is tricky to empty
- Hose is short

Check out the Hoover UH70210 on Amazon.

The Hoover Pet Rewind is powered by a 12 map motor and it uses cyclonic suction.  Cyclonic suction is the kind of technology made famous by Dyson and it involves spinning air at very high speeds such that the dirt is “flung” out and into the dirt canister.  This technology generally allows suction to be maintained while vacuuming and while the dirt canister is filling, and it also helps to keep much of the dirt away from the filters allowing them to stay cleaner longer.

The UH70210 comes standard with quite a number of features and the most popular is the automatic cord rewind.  Quite a few owners like this.  The power cord is 27 feet long which is fairly reasonable for a full size upright.   The unit also features a fold-down handle which allows for easier storage. 

The vacuum is capable on both hard floors and carpet and is has a powered brushroll that can be turned on and off.  The brushbar switch is a foot pedal.  It also comes with 5 different nozzle height settings which allowing one to choose an optimal cleaning height above the floor surface.

Filters on this machine are washable and it comes standard with HEPA filtration, a great feature for those with allergies or asthma.  It also has a carbon filter which helps to remove odors from the air.  This is often popular with pet owners.  There is also a filter check indicator that tells one when changing or checking is necessary.

A number of tools are provides and these include:
- A pet hair turbo brush (air powered)
- A pet furniture nozzle (uses rubber wipers to pull up pet hair)
- Crevice tool
- Extension wand (12 inches)

This is a bagless machine so it has a dirt canister.  This part of the machine gets some owner criticism as many feel it is too small and needs frequent emptying.  It is also considered by some folks to be hard to empty and debris sometimes needs to be “”dug” out.

The Hoover Pet Rewind also has a headlight and access to the belt and brushbar is made easy by simply flipping 2 switches.   The stretch hose expands to 8 feet in length but many feel it is too short.  It has a bumper to protect furniture and walls, weighs 17.8 lbs, and carries a 2-year warranty.
