Best best best.
professional and pleasant customer service.
This is the best vacuum I have ever bought. Powerful suction, cleans well. This vacuum body is small but does a great work n because of its size it doesn’t take much scape at home to store.
Got free bags as a gift from store.
Purchased in March 2020 at Godfreys for $200.00.

Piece of garbage lost suction after about 4 uses
I'm getting a little tired of these products which presumably come from China and are not made to what we used to call reliable standard in the western world. 4 uses and the suction was fine. Then it got extremely weak, and cleaning out the filter didn't help at all. I understand it is at the low end of the price range, but you tend to hope for at least a couple of years' use of things you buy, not a couple of months.
Purchased in January 2020 at Godfreys Physical Stores for $130.00.

Hi Johnny,
We are sorry to hear of the issues you are experiencing with your machine.
We would also recommend to check for blockages in the foot, rod, hose and canister and the suction dial on the machine between the on/off and cord retract buttons.... Read more
I checked for blockages. This is the second dud I have bought from your store. Last one was a similar story. You need to stop importing from China, although maybe no other country remembers how to mak... Read more
e vacuum cleaners after so much reliance on cheap merchandise. Rest assured I will be taking the machine to your store, which, since reading these other reviews, I have discovered sold me this thing after long being aware this unit was very problematic. We're going to have a problem if I don't get a full refund or a replacement with a more reliable product, and you aren't getting another cent out of me either way.Godfrey G.Hoover
Hi Johnny,
No worries, just take the machine into your nearest store for further inspection.
Keep in mind that the warranty on the machine is a repair, replacement or refund warranty as per the ACCC.... Read more

Design issues
I purchased this vac a little over 2 weeks ago so it is early days. So far, it has done a good job on my very old carpet and hard floors, but I have issues with the design. The "handle" is too low, the hot air blowing upwards is very annoying and, as a right-handed person (like most people), I don't understand why the power button is not on the inside instead of the outside of the barrel.
Purchased in March 2019 at Godfreys Physical Stores for $199.00.

Best vacuum
Used for over a month- giving a good result
Noise less. Strong suction power. Easy to store because of its small size. Nice colour.
Hope it stays same for forever
Purchased at Godfreys for $200.00.

I was Sold a dud!
I was sold this vac at godfrey’s. I have a small house and no pets and this vac can’t cope with it’s job. I have to empty and clean it EVERY time I use it and it clogs EVERY time I use it. Worst vac I’ve ever wasted good money on! I’m extremely disappointed.

tandard, as was recommended by the salesperson who sold it to me. What it comes down to is that I believe that it’s a badly designed vac and I’m very disappointed with it.Godfrey G.Hoover

Great vacuum for the price
Great little vacuum for the price, light and mobile with a good strong hose. The bagless chamber is a little small but I've had no issues with my vacuum cleaner and it's good for the car or getting under beds.
Purchased in July 2019 at Godfrey's for $200.00.

Value for Money
Went to Godfreys to purchase a vacuum cleaner within the under $100 budget. The staff recommended Hoover Smart. It worked well for the first month. After that there seems to be some problem with the suction.
Editing my review, after the suction stopped working, I opened the machine and removed all the dirt.
I reckon something was stuck. Working well again.
Purchased in December 2018 at Godfreys.

My parents have a Hoover All Rounder T4012. They didnt know about the filters and collection chamber in the main barrel. Long story, short - I discovered this and emptied it and cleaned the grey sponge filter. They dont have the manual. I need to know how to put it back together properly. Thanks

The red light keeps flickering on when vacuuming and the motoring very hot.

Without knowing how long you've had the unit, I would suggest cleaning the filter pad near the motor unit. If it becomes blocked, the engine will overheat and can surge (power). Also ensure the main chamber is empty and clean.
