Is this vacuum easy to push?

Our new Hoover Windtunnel vacuum is extremely easy to maneuver and quite effortless to push. We are both elderly and in good shape but have no trouble pushing it where it needs to go!

It's easy to push when new but my wheels wore out in a couple of years now it's a real bear to push. And no, I didn't abuse it, we have bare floors everywhere except the bedrooms.

Its heavier than previous ones I've owned but the suction makes up for it. Its is better on carpet than on hardwood floors, as it kinds of flies over the hardwoods.

NO. This is the heaviest vac I've ever owned. The very first 2 things I noticed on its first us was 1) had no light (my last 2 had lights). 2) how heavy it was to push/maneuver around. Already going to purchase another vac

My purchase was chosen to be a gift for an independent 88 yr old woman. Our concern was how easy was it to take apart to empty and for the vaccum was light and durable to handle

I'm 52 and don't have any problems pushing it. However, my 80 year old Mom says it's "hard" to push.

If your vacuum is properly adjusted for the surface you are cleaning, it is not a problem.

Yes, I think so. My favorite feature is that it is easy to take apart so I can dump and wash the canister and the filter, so everything stays really clean.

It just needs to be pushed in firmly. I haven't had ant problems with it. Nice Vacuum.

No, it isn't. It's also a quite a bit heavier then a standard upright vacuum (and could pose difficulty for some when going up and down stairs with it) . With that being said it's easy to move around on the rug and I had zero issues with it.

No, I still have to push it -- which is pretty ease to do. However, the factory refurbished unit I bought has a very high-pitched screach that comes and goes...... tolarable. BUT, gotta say, L-O-V-E the results of vacuuming now!

Not at all. It has a smooth feel and the low center of gravity makes it easy to push even in thick carpet

Depends on the thickness of the carpet. Not hard to push on my thin rugs. Very hard on my new thick plush carpet.

Yes it is very easy to push and worked very well for me. Also light weight.

Yes, you can push it. Going up a flight of stairs, I would pull it. But going down, you can let it go down first.

IT move easily with the brush turning on carpet. I don't think there is anything other than the brush that moves it, It's a great vacume cleaner -- I like the switch that lets you use it without the brush turning to do hard floors. works great at less money than some of the super-high-end vacs.

Yes, you can push it--but obviously pulling it is easier. You are able to push it and steer it

its easy for me to push, when you put a new bag it, it will suck the carpet so hard its a little hard to push but its cleaning the dirt up . this vacuum is on every top 10 list of vacuums there is out there. with vacuums that cost three times as much as this one does. it does a very good job and its highly rated. by testing companies. as far as the bags go there the standard bags or he-pa filter bags, amazon carries them.

Very easy. It's almost too easy to push, and I find myself having to slow myself down. It does a great job!

So easy ... but sometines it can be hard to pull up, I must admit. Just pull up the lever in the front of the vacuum on the top.

I don't have arthritis, so it's difficult to answer this question. I can tell you the vacuum is easy to hold and maneuver. It is rather heavy to carry up and downstairs, and it's a pain to have to unwind the whole cord to use the hose, but this is the best vacuum I've ever owned.

It's reasonably maneuverable. Not THAT heavy. I pull it instead of pushing.

Are the attachments included with the vacuum. How does it clean on very thick carpets and is it hard to push. I have a hoover self propelled uprigt now.

not sure as we have not tried that yet, but my grandson has been mowing the carpet in the living room and it pushing very easy. In fact he loves it and take the tank to fill the gas and everything. He just turned two ,
