Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet Elite 2 DESIGN FLAW! Review & TESTS

HI Guys, This is my Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet Elite 2. It is part of the ONEPWR line from Hoover that uses the same battery across various products BUT it has 1 big problem that makes me hesitate to recommend it. I test it, unbox it, compare it to the Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet 1 and the OnePWR Emerge Cordless Vacuum.

I went and drilled two holes on each side of the clear housing above the LED lights to use of a suction release cuz I was having the exact same problem on my thick area rugs and now it works beautifully and it still has an amazing amount of sucking power

I bought this vacuum about a month ago (March 2024) and I don't have the vacuum stopping repeatedly on carpet). So far I love it. But thanks for the review.

thanks so very much! you saved me a ton of headache .

[@TheFrenchGlow]

Thanks for watching!

[@susank6492]

I just ordered this from Amazon. If I have this problem it's going back. Thanks for the review!

[@lovethosebudgies]

That stopping would drive me crazy, definitely a dealbreaker. Btw you have a fabulous voice. A pleasure to listen to.

[@TheFrenchGlow]

Thank you and thanks for watching. Definitely a deal breaker for me

Wow! Thank you for this review and information! We were just about ready to order the Evolve Pet Elite 2 until we viewed your video. The Evolve 1 is currently on sale at our local Target for $139.00 and we will not be purchasing this model until this issue with the brush roll stopping on carpet is resolved. We are long time owner of the Hoover Llnx cordless vacuums and were looking to upgrade our cordless vacuum.

hi! I hope Hoover fixes this carpet issue as most of the reviews I have seen are only testing it on hard floors or thin commercial grade carpets to begin with. What makes it worse is Hoover customer service is VERY difficult to reach. I tried online chat (waited over 4 hours for a reply on multiple occasions), email (never even got a response), and only by calling Hoover after 2+ hr wait times then asking for a manager was I able to get return shipping waived and get a new one. Sadly, same issue. At this price point, they should be more understanding.

Hi. I am so glad I happened to come across your review. I too was just about to order it as its on sale but I have a lot of carpets and that would drive me crazy plus the cannister and filter. I was waiting for a new version with lights and this sounded great. Plus I have a huge issue with any customer service that deals with vacuum's. A lot of these places are now charging a restocking fee so always read the small print.@@TheFrenchGlow

I'm on my 3rd one of these and the belt that drives the roller keeps slipping. Possible because the end of a rug got pulled into it. You cannot get a replacement belt. That's why I'm on my 3rd one. I love this vacuum other than that and I've really had no problem with the canister or filters.

[@TheFrenchGlow]

Thanks for sharing. The Hoover Evolve Pet 2 had so much potential to be Hoover's best vacuum. The suction is out of this world and it looks good.

[@WelchC8289]

Crazy they don’t have a suction release valve or anything for carpet.

[@ThePrime206]

You know what I did I went and drilled two holes on each side of the clear housing to use as a suction release cuz I was having that exact same problem

[@factspirate99]

Whay would you recommend instesd of this vacuum? Thanks.

[@TheFrenchGlow]

As a cordless upright pet vac at this price point, I would do with shark duoclean apex or vertex. Since the shark stratos came out, you can score the apex or vertex on sale at the same price as the hoover. I think the hoover onepwr cordless stick pet max is also very similar with the same battery.

[@milanmilan9992]

How I can unplug the handle?

[@albertamodeo4955]

Is there a way to replace the drive belt. I see no instructions. Is there even a belt or is it a gear? I could see a gear stop the roller in case of a snag to prevent motor burnout

[@TheFrenchGlow]

Hi! It's not easy to replace.

[@albertamodeo4955]

@TheFrenchGlow . I found it. It is really simple. there are 4 screw on the side that need to be removed. the drive belt was ok. The brush wheel was frozen., I needed to remove it and shave some plastic that mush have melted. BE CAREFUL, the screws on the drive wheel are counter screws. DONT srtip them'
