The Hoover WindTunnel 2 Whole House Rewind is okay to use on bare floors. It sucks up hair on bare floors quite easily and cleans up most small debris. Unfortunately, it's not as good with large debris and it quickly loses performance as the dirt compartment fills. Also, since it doesn't have a rotating head, the maneuverability is disappointing. Luckily, the compartment is fairly big and the vacuum itself is easy to maintain.
