Hoover Enigma Power Vacuum Cleaner 2300 Watts Of Room Heating Power! 

Hoover back in the days: it beats as it sweeps as it cleans Hoover in the early-mid 2010s: it heats as it breaks as it deafens

Tell ya Roger ,I don’t know anyone who has the passion for these machines other than u ,share quality and devotion

One of the most delicate parts of the ear are the tiny hairs lining the middle ear. There are around 15 thousand of these structures, and they play a fundamental part in the hearing process. When sound waves enter the ear canal, the hair cells bend in response to the level of sound they encounter, passing the waves further down into the ear. But if the sound is too high because there’s too much energy, the hair cells will bend over and stay in the position, meaning they won’t be doing their job and you won’t hear as well. This is something many people have experienced after attending loud football matches, for example, some sounds can be muffled for hours or even days afterwards. In most cases, the hair cells eventually recover and revert to their original, upright position, and then your hearing is fully restored. But if they frequently encounter loud noise or if it’s particularly loud on any one occasion, the hair cells might die, and they don’t regenerate or grow back - resulting in permanent hearing loss. The eardrum is also affected by noise that’s too loud. Its function is to vibrate when sound waves hit it to send sounds further into the ear for processing. As many people know, loud noise can tear or perforate the eardrum, and so, you don’t hear properly for a while. As with damaged hair cells, the good news is that the eardrum is capable of repairing itself when it’s torn and is usually back to its old self in a few weeks - although in some cases, intervention in the form of a patch is required to assist in healing. Loud noises can also damage nerves in the ear, causing symptoms in addition to hearing loss, like tinnitus, vertigo and numbness in the face. If the auditory nerve is damaged due to loud noise, it most likely will stay that way and it can’t be fixed. People suffering from auditory nerve damage will usually require hearing aids to recover some of their hearing ability.

2300 watt! Blimey 🫨

Keep in mind Decibels are an exponential scale, so every 10 DB is 10 times louder, so this machine is still a couple times louder than a EU regulation machine, and probably 50 times louder than a new Miele or Sebo.

My gran had a pure power 2100 watt , sounded just the same no dodgy soft start though, used to get red hot and one day went pop while i was hoovering her hallway it also had that red brush roll and i remember turning it upside down one day because it was barely grooming the carpet and nearly all the bristles had snapped off and it was virtually bare , nice looking but poorly made.

Yea its noisy but wow did it clean good ..incredible suction . And gave your carpets an incredible groom . If you do what i do and listen to music with headphones in your doing great . Without the noise does get on ya nerves . Its shame they dont make good suction machines like this now . Ive a challenge for you lets do a pick up comparing video with this one to a dyson v11 v12 or v15 and lets see how they compare . As the dysons are fab picker uppers but so is his would love to see rhe difference . That a new video for you to do rodger comoare a quiet dyson cordless ( your choice as knkw u have a few).with this one . Id actually buy this vacuum avain as love it ... best picker upper eber had over all the years .

Nice video! Next time you should import a Hoover windtunnel ultra self propelled from the US!

wow it surpassed the Henry of 80 nice. Seems to groom the carpet quite nicely and works easy on your Saxony carpet witch most vacuum don't like i wonder if it exist in Canada ??

I’m a vacuum lover myself and I used to have a Hoover enigma evo

Hoover , no longer beats and sweeps as it cleans, it sucks, sweeps and Heats up your house, but wear your ear defenders 😂

The wattages of our vacuums here in America is still pretty high like this one. They tend to have good suction, but it seem to me some of that extra power goes to the brush roll. Correct me if I’m wrong but since this enigma was a higher wattage, it was able to cope with your plush style carpet, bs some of your other vacuums that are under a thousand watts that tend to stall and shut off.

I wish I could show you the brand new commercial PortaPower I just bought with the same metal wands that the constellation used.

I can’t remember the last time I had to use a screwdriver to assemble a vacuum cleaner… and what a fussy design! So many holes and clips and holders!

That's from week 11 of 2014, which is very close to the time that the first stage of the EU lowering of power came in in September 2014, when it was lowered to 1600W max I think. The final stage came in in 2017 when we had 900W max by law. The soft start should not sound jittery like that. I had a 2100W Purepower from around the same time and that had a very smooth motor acceleration up to full power. Definitely does not sound right.

19:18. Sounds so knackered

Got siemens cylinder 2500 Watts but got a dial on it changes power for curtains and hard floor very powerful?

Intersting. I know vacuum can use a fair ammount of electricity, not 2300w. Im form the US. My sister had a vacuum that used 12amps. Thats more than what my iron uses!

I fixed it but when we used it for a long time once, I went BOOM

I must say - I don't like the matt finish of these versions - much prefer the nice shiny bright colours of the earlier purepowers than the matt finish of this - that wattage is mega though! Sounds a bit rough when started up for a few seconds

Oh yikes! The soft start makes it sound knackered even though it’s brand new! That can’t be right!?!

Oof, that “soft start” is probably a circuit board problem, but scary as that Hoover could go to straight to 2300W in 2 seconds!! Definitely scary

The first generation Hoover Freedom upright hood/foot pedal deign seemed to be a bit better than the PurePower and Enigma machines - it is a shame Hoover did not adopt the first Freedom design for their later bagged upright machines.

My mama always told me, “stay in the room. It’s gonna get hot.”

I miss the days when you had to spend half an hour building your vacuum before you could use it.

Amazing video

I keep asking you a question but you never answer me. What’s the best cordless handheld vacuum to get please. Tia.

How much is the vacuum gauge in the U. S

id like to see this on a bag of filth video just to see if 2300 watts really cleans better

Yo, Would you recommend the dyson v10 as a secondary vacuum for my short pile carpet. Thanks

2300 watts is almost 10 amps from 240v

18:25 Nope there were vacuums with higher wattages like some Siemens Synchropower power edition vacuums that had 2500 watt motors. But it is extremely ridiculous how far they went up and I bet that if the EU didn't stop them we would have domestic vacuum cleaners with maybe 3000 watts. But it might be interesting if you would get one of those Siemens(or I think Bosch also did some) just for fun😂

On this side of the ocean we never received vacuums with higher wattages than 1600 because anything much higher would have flipped most individual circuits in our homes where we have 120 amp service and our electrical is divided into zones within the house but even our higher wattage machines were loud and they also ran very hot. As you demonstrated with this machine the performance gains weren’t proportional or necessary as we found that 1000-1100 watts with a brushroll delivered exceptional results as Miele and Sebo always supplied us with machines in that range and our domestic premium brands never got into the unneeded horsepower races either.

But now we have a shark

And it broke becuz my mama sucked up some glass and broke the brush roll.😢😢😢

It just sounds horrible like there's no other way to put it

The whiny, grating, noise that vacuum makes alone would be a good reason for me not to buy it. Unlike the old Hoover Juniors, Senior's that purr like a kitten.
