The “MAX” line shows you when it’s full, although it’s easy to see this anyway as the canister is made from clear plastic. It’s worth noting that dust and dirt doesn’t always settle to the bottom, so you might not get the full 3 litres of capacity. The Hoover Breeze Evo Pets is better at cleaning light dirt and dust than larger debris on carpets. You have to lift the vac off the floor and place it directly on top of bigger bits. Otherwise, the floorhead just pushes them around. The height selector is a useful feature, but it takes some experimentation to get right. This setting only affects the height of the brush roll, rather than power or speed, but it still changes the vacuum’s performance. If the brush roll is too high, for example, the cleaning performance suffers. Too low, and it’s hard to push around. I made the mistake of buying one of these – replacement parts are unobtainable, either from Hoover or third party suppliers ( apart from filters) EG- the front wheels are made of plastic and run on plastic axles which wear-out within six months !

For a budget vac, we think the Hoover Breeze Evo Pets performs pretty well – as long as your expectations are realistic. It doesn’t have the same suction power as a premium cleaner, but it’s still decent for the price. Just expect to do a few extra sweeps to completely clean a floor. They’re also not as effective as HEPA filters, although they are as efficient as can be expected for a vacuum in this price range. It’s certainly not the best vacuum for allergy sufferers though. Emptying and CleaningIf you are looking for an upright vacuum cleaner that will still afford you a convenient cleaning for above-floor surfaces, Hoover Breeze Evo is a good option to consider. Its large bin capacity, long power cord, and stretch hose already eliminate the stress common with many upright vacuum cleaners. It may be a little noisy, but not so many products of its kind are less noisy than it. So, overall, the Hoover TH31BO02 Breeze Evo is a top-quality upright vacuum cleaner, and it gets our full recommendation. The addition of the pet turbo tool makes it a definite step up from the standard Breeze Evo. It’s only a small jump in price, but is much more versatile with this extra tool. The mini motorised tool is one of the stand out features of this vacuum. Even if you don’t have pets, the compact size and rotating bristles are ideal for thorough cleaning all around the home. It’s a good width for using on stairs, and handy for areas like furniture and pet beds. The Hoover Breeze Evo Pets has similar features to the standard Hoover Breeze Evo, but comes with an extra mini motorised turbo brush. This accessory has rotating brushes to agitate fibres, making it useful for cleaning stairs, upholstery, and car interiors. Dispite our one being two years old, It’s revealed a apparent design fault – looks like the motor and beater bar areout of alignment – dispite there being no wear in either the motor or beater bar, the drive belt will not stay in place, rides to the end of the motor shaft and comes off !
