@JonT Too soon. But I think an empty flask badge of honor would be appropriate, really. (That's partly because I don't have to design and code it but partly because it would be like the "emeritus" tag you see in some fields and you earned it.)
@Kidsandliz Thanks, we like to link to Amazon for a consistent reference and that was the closest one we could find. I added the Target link you found to the specs.
@Moose The pictures for the Target model are different than the pictures you have in the description (which are the same as the Amazon model you linked). So, which is it? I NEED TO KNOW!
@Kidsandliz Sorry couldn't help myself, was feeling so meh about this POS deal. Would like to know which vacuum it actually is though, come on @JonT get it right! Picture and model # don't jive.
@robson Personally I'd trust what the model number is with respect to which vac it is rather than the colors. Or perhaps it came in several colors along the way...? Target must have dumped them as somewhere or other when looking I read that Target was the only store that carried them; they were made just for Target.
@Moose Cool. Thanks guys. But I haven't ordered yet. Gonna sleep on it. Unless you are sending out free vacuums for pointing out mistakes! Then, by all means.
@captainchris13 How can Wally World undercut @Meh? Meh has no overhead compared to WW. Mind blown. @Moose how about adding this link to the comparisons?
@Pufferfishy Dear God. I have a Bissell and want to puke every time I turn it on. Wet dog ass is the exact way I'd describe it and no amount of cleaning, scrubbing, soaking, etc will remove that smell. JC it smells like shit
Yep, feel like a fool for following the link and not checking the part number. $50 from wal mart for this part number. Found it 5 min after I clicked buy. This causes me to lose much trust in meh and probably not recommend any friends to use them unless I research what they are selling thoroughly first.
I've had one of these for about a year now. It's easy to use for someone who has a disability. Small enough to get in and under things, and a decent suck power. That being said, I went and bought a Dyson. The performance is 10 times better. The Air is a low budget machine, with great qualities, but does leave room for want.

This sucks.
@JonT if you are going to be first... you might want o put a little more effort into it
@JonT You've been waiting a long time to be a 'regular guy' posting first, haven't you?
@JonT You get to keep your flask? Shouldn't it at least be empty?
@editorkid it should be replaced by a proud "K" soon enough.
@JonT I heard this blows too.......
@JonT this evidently also sucks at post it notes..
@JonT Too soon. But I think an empty flask badge of honor would be appropriate, really. (That's partly because I don't have to design and code it but partly because it would be like the "emeritus" tag you see in some fields and you earned it.)
This vacuum does the same thing as the poster before me.
@lichme Zing!
@ofrory
Have a star
@jml326 this deal is in the bag right?
@AttyVette not if you bag it.
What connector????
Probably lightening like all the others
One of these days one of these docks will come with usb.
I don't want this.
Can it switch from suck to blow?
@jml326 Yes, but it's going to require jewelry.
@jml326 Conversationally... it does both
That entire write-up sounded like a Mortimer & Monte conversation.
@jont or whomever is up at this hour
The amazon link is a different machine. Look at the model numbers. meh is selling 72430, the link goes to 72400
THIS is the same vac
http://www.target.com/p/hoover-air-ultra-lite-bagless-upright-vacuum-uh72430/-/A-15061459
NOT NOT NOT the amazon link
Here is a link to the manual
https://www.manualowl.com/p/Hoover/UH72430/Manual/221716
@Kidsandliz looks like you found the missing link:)
@Kidsandliz OMG! WTF! IDK BFD
@robson Well aren't you having a nice evening being nasty
@Kidsandliz Thanks, we like to link to Amazon for a consistent reference and that was the closest one we could find. I added the Target link you found to the specs.
@Moose The pictures for the Target model are different than the pictures you have in the description (which are the same as the Amazon model you linked). So, which is it? I NEED TO KNOW!

Target must have dumped them as somewhere or other when looking I read that Target was the only store that carried them; they were made just for Target.
@Kidsandliz maybe it was a targeted deal
@Mac454 Looks like the Target link is correct; we are updating the pictures now. The specs we have listed match the vacuum you are getting.
@Moose Cool. Thanks guys. But I haven't ordered yet. Gonna sleep on it. Unless you are sending out free vacuums for pointing out mistakes! Then, by all means.
@Moose somewhere or other I also posted a link to the manual..
@Mac454 http://www.walmart.com/ip/Refurbished-Hoover-Air-Ultra-Lite-Bagless-upright-Vacuum-UH72430RM/46429856 the $18 you save will buy you a nice dinner instead.
@captainchris13 How can Wally World undercut @Meh? Meh has no overhead compared to WW. Mind blown. @Moose how about adding this link to the comparisons?
@brianmc1975 no one undercuts me.
@meh Wally World did.
@brianmc1975 you are mistaken
@meh curious, how is he mistaken?
@jleichty @meh Exactly, how was I mistaken. I didnt see a price drop from Meh.
@brianmc1975 sorry, people usually catch on after my first comment that @meh does not magically tag a website.
Every vacuum should come with a rating on whether or not it stinks like wet dog ass if you don't wash the various filters it has after every use
(my Shark, wich cleans pretty good and is light does not, but my Bissel, which cleans awesome but weighs a ton does)
So - what's the story with this Dyson?
@Pufferfishy I found some reviews at
http://hoover.com/products/details/uh72430/air-ultra-lite-bagless-upright/
Also reviews at the target link they have added now that I also put above.
Apparently lots of plastic parts that break. No comments about stink so it likely doesn't perhaps?
@Kidsandliz t.hanks!
@Pufferfishy Dear God. I have a Bissell and want to puke every time I turn it on. Wet dog ass is the exact way I'd describe it and no amount of cleaning, scrubbing, soaking, etc will remove that smell. JC it smells like shit
@Pufferfishy This Dyson smells just like a Hoover.
@jbrookebarrow I guess, then, that I am lucky in that regard, because at least mine is good for a couple Hooverings after I wash every removable part.
@cinoclav :
C'mon, Matt. Where's the cool shit you used to find to put up for sale in the good old days? This really {sucks, blows}.
Just wanted to give kudos for the write up. (Kudos isn't a brand name, is it? Oh, wait... dammit.)
based on picture four, this will pick up blue, green, yellow, purple, and pinkish colors, but not blacks, browns, and reds.
Will my Neato get jealous if I buy this?
This deal s making me filter my buying tonight
Umm Hoover as in dam? Isn't this from Nevada?
50 bux from Wal-Mart?
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Refurbished-Hoover-Air-Ultra-Lite-Bagless-upright-Vacuum-UH72430RM/46429856
@deaconblues Looks like it! Good eye.
@moose hmm so now what does meh do? Hope that with shipping meh is still less?
@deaconblues Yes thank you! But with all the poor reviews on Target may not even be worth the $50 bucks.
@robson Perhaps this will now be dumped via the next fuku...
@deaconblues Nice. Ouch. And you can take the 6 month Hoover warranty up to a 2 year Walmart replacement plan for another 3 bucks.
Time for a Woot-like midstream price change? (And of course price adjustment for the 19 existing orders an hour in.)
@deaconblues Hey! I was gonna post this! Blasted job, keeping me from posting first!
Yep, feel like a fool for following the link and not checking the part number. $50 from wal mart for this part number. Found it 5 min after I clicked buy. This causes me to lose much trust in meh and probably not recommend any friends to use them unless I research what they are selling thoroughly first.
MEH FAIL. :-(
@captainchris13 You can cancel your meh order. People have to do the buy then cancel game to deal with changing vmp and address changes, etc.
@captainchris13 You should still be able to cancel your order, I hope...
@captainchris13
(account, my orders, cancel) (with shipping and tax it's around $59.71 at the WAL-meh)
@moose this would have been a perfect product for the baby arm... just sayin'
@Kidsandliz true
I need a Kleenex because my favorite is missing.
I've had one of these for about a year now. It's easy to use for someone who has a disability. Small enough to get in and under things, and a decent suck power. That being said, I went and bought a Dyson. The performance is 10 times better.
