OK OK so I'm stretching the truth a little bit here lol XD but this machine has had very little use in its life.
I bought this Hoover Freedom from eBay probably about 10 years ago and have never even taken it out of the box. This seemed like an ideal time to take a look at it seeing as it's the machine that my dear old grandmother replaced her Kenwood with back in 1981.
This is not exactly the same machine that gran bought, this is the later 'Mk2' version or the cost reduced version of the Freedom that by this point in time, was the budget range of cylinders that Hoover was selling alongside the much more expensive Sensotronic and the much more modern Compact.
In this video we'll take a good look at this machine, give it run in the lounge, and also talk about what makes this a very frustrating Hoover to work on.
Hope you enjoy the video! Don't forget to comment, like and subscribe as it really helps me out and I love hearing from you guys :)
PS: One really interesting thing to note is where Freedom was manufactured - Great Britain! By this point Hoover was manufacturing the majority of their cylinder vacuum cleaners in their Dijon plant in France.
PPS: Sorry about the sneeze, I forgot to edit it out lmao XD
