130widthToday is March 1st and what is a better way to start off the month than with Spring Cleaning? Myself, along with Amanda from Mommy Mandy and Caryn from Rockin’ Mama are kick starting this month with a BANG!

What is a better way to start cleaning your home, than to start with your carpet? With the new Hoover Platinum Collection, I, Amanda and Caryn are putting our Hoovers to the tests.

I am reviewing the Platinum Cordless Stick Vacuum and I have to say that with the small (yet big) messes that the kids bring to the house,this tiny small, lightweight van can stay in my pantry so I can easily pull it out when I need it. hoover3jpgWhile I ADORE my other vacuum, I like that this one can stow in the corner of my pantry easily for an easy clean up of the mac and cheese that lays under the table after the kids’ lunch.

I have been using my Platinum Cordless Stick Vac for over a week now and I have to say that this lightweight vacuum has truly amazed me with it’s’ power, capabilities and the overall function. When the kids have their meals and snacks at the dining table, the Platinum Cordless Stick Vacuum is lightweight and maneuvers nicely under the table and chairs.   

Hoover® Platinum Collection™ Stick Vacuum

LiNX™ Cordless Battery System

  •  Starts with the LiNX Cordless battery: One interchangeable 18-volt lithium-ion battery powers both the Platinum Collection™ Hand and Stick Vacuum
  • Fade-free power: Lithium-ion technology ensures battery sustains power until it is completely drained
  • No “slow fade” of power and suction that consumers expect from traditional NiCD cordless cleaning products
  • Freedom from power cords, added versatility
  • Lithium-ion batteries free consumers from the hassle and tangle of power cords and offer versatility in selecting the right cleaning tool for the task at hand – all using the same battery

Other than the mega sucking power on this small vacuum, I love that it is cordless! It is charged by a battery, in a wall charger, and then you place the battery in the vacuum. The long lasting battery power is unbelievable! Another favorite of mine about the Platinum Cordless Stick Vacuum is that there are no bags to replace, so no additional expenses are needed. After I vacuumed up the dining room (gotta love hardened macaroni and partial grilled cheese sandwiches), I pulled the dirt cup off and the mess it pulled up wasn’t so much shocking since I have small kids, but it was amazing to see what this small, yet mighty beast pulled up!
