Product Information

Finally there is a hair removal tool with which to clean out the brush head. Features of the Hoover HF500? If you have a dog or a cat, use the Pet Hair Remover with rotating bristles to deeply remove hairs from cushions, carseats or other textile surfaces. With two children and a dog, the floors in my house are rarely spotless, but I do try. I have robot vacuum cleaners upstairs and downstairs which keep the majority of the floor looking OK, and a bagged, corded vacuum cleaner which performs consistently well but is heavy and cumbersome, and so doesn’t get brought out as often as it should perhaps. Fully charged over six hours, I have found that the battery lasts around 15 minutes when using turbo mode (which supplies additional suction) some of the time, although it is claimed that it will last up to 40 minutes maximum with the lowest settings and 8 when there are motorised accessories attached and the HF500 is in turbo mode.

On a single six-hour charge, the Hoover H-Free 500 is rated to last for up to 40 minutes on standard mode. This drops down to 25 minutes if you use the motorised floor brush. In Turbo mode, this drops down to just eight minutes. Given that I had to switch on Turbo mode regularly to clean up bigger spills, this isn’t a vacuum cleaner I could use for my entire house. Instead, I see it as a tool for smaller properties or as an addition to a plug-in vacuum cleaner. H-FREE 500 has 3 handy accessories stored onboard : combining crevice, dusting and upholstery functionality. A pets turbo brush is also included in the box, with rotating bristles to loosen pet hairs from your cushions or sofa.
