hoover

Like Kleenex for tissue, roller blades for inline skates, "hoover" has become a genericized trademark for vacuums.

In early and mid 20th century, Hoover dominated the vacuum cleaner industry, making the name synonymous with vacuum cleaners and vacuuming.

Beside vacuums and other floor care products, Hoover also manufactured domestic appliances in Europe.


Hoover was particularly well known for its washing machines and tumble dryers in parts of the UK and Ireland.

Over the years, Hoover brought other products to the market, including hair dryers, speakers, and some industrial equipment.

You'll find bloggers talking about hoover vacuums at sites like Vacuum Cleaner Reviews and Vacuum Bags Guide.
