Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hoover L2310 GUV 10 Amp 5-Gallon Garage Utility Vacuum
Customer Review: Great Garage Vacuum
Summary: 5 Stars
This vacuum from Hoover is great for cleaning the car and all areas of the garage. The suction that is created from it is comparable to the car wash vacuums. I find that it picks up dust and debris that I never knew existed. I have found this vaccum to be a excellent addition to our garage and wouldn't do without it.Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
I would recommend this product. I was always tripping over the other vacuum cleaner. This vacuum is easy to install and has plenty of suction power.Customer Review: Great Vac for the Money
Summary: 5 Stars
Believe it or not, I bought this for my wife as a birthday present and did not get slapped. We have two young kids and she is a fanatic about keeping her car clean. After watching her lug around the shop vac and extension cord for years, I saw this as a great solution. The cannister mounts easily to the wall, the hose reaches forever, and the attachments are close at hand in a special bag. The motor is quiet and the suction is powerful enough to pick up gobs of dropped french fries, pretzels, you name it.Customer Review: Great Vac, a few things missing
Summary: 4 Stars
I won't duplicate everything others have said, but a few thoughts from a 6' guy with a three car garage:
- The vac is much quieter than my shop vac and more convenient, a real positive.
- It comes with two extension wands which you use to vacuum floors. For me, the two wands just didn't provide enough length to avoid stooping a bit. Hoover does sell extras for around $6 each on their web site; they also carry all of the accessories if you need to replace something.
- Directions really aren't the greatest for installation. It tells you how to mount the vac to the wall using the bracket, but doesn't discuss how the bag and hose mounts. Can figure it out, but would have appreciated a little more guidance. Also, my vac did not ship with any fasteners, even though it was a factory sealed box, and the directions discussed them.
- This is a great vac for floor cleaning, car detailing, etc. I don't think it'd work as a dust collector in lieu of a shop vac or other collector as suction volume isn't quite there. Then again, it's much quieter and easier to use, so that's the tradeoff.
Overall a good purchase with a few minor things I wish were better. But a vast improvement over my 15 year old Sears Shop Vac for general cleanup.
LATE UPDATE: Recently completed some drywall work in the garage and used this to clean it up. Good news, the filter didn't let dust through. Bad news - it clogged quickly, and was a bear to remove and clean. Really wish it had an easier to remove and clean filter, the recommended method of using a grocery sack below the vac to catch dust isn't real efficient. Recommend taping a kitchen trash bag around the rim of the outside, then pulling it into that, otherwise you'll dump dust all over. Yech!

I have owned this for about two years now and except for the crappy on/off switch (which I had to replace with one from Radio Shack) it's been excellent. I use it all the time here in my automotive shop. It's got lots of suction, holds lots of dirt in between emptying, no bags required, and comes with tools and a really long hose. All my customers want one for their garages!
