Description
The Hoover story begins in 1907. Murray Spangler, an inventor who worked nights as a janitor, had an asthma problem. He called upon his inventor's creativity to find a solution to the dust that aggravated his asthma as he swept up at night. Spangler gathered a tin soap box, a fan, a sateen pillow case and a broom handle, and assembled an odd-looking, cumbersome contraption that managed to pull the dust away from the air he breathed. He quickly realized that this "suction sweeper," as he called it, had enormous sales potential, and he began seeking financial backing. W.H. "Boss" Hoover, owner of a leather goods manufacturing shop, bought the patent from Spangler in 1908, retained him as a partner, and soon had six employees assembling six units a day in a corner of the leather goods shop. Now that's a humble beginning. The WindTunnel Bagged canister vacuum cleaner offers superior cleaning performance delivered by the WindTunnel power nozzle, convenient bagless design, and the electronic speed controls right at your fingertips. The WindTunnel Bagged has an ultra-quiet bagless canister, with a HEPA Media filter to reduce the amount of dust, pollen and pet dander in the air. The HEPA Media traps 99.97% of dust and pollens. The patented WindTunnel technology lifts and traps the dirt, so it won't scatter back into your carpet. Dirt ends up in your cleaner, not on your floor. The telescopic wand with Quick Disconnect is another great feature on the WindTunnel Bagged. The wand adjusts easily to desired height, and the Quick Disconnect feature allows you to change from nozzle to tools effortlessly.
