Hoover ONEPWR Emerge
Verdict
The Hoover ONEPWR Emerge is effectively a better-value twin of the Ryobi Advance, offering similar performance with more tools and a two-battery setup. It deep-cleans carpets reasonably well and runs for a long time, but its unsealed canister leaks fine dust and makes it a weaker choice for allergy sufferers. If you want a mid-range cordless that can keep going almost continuously and you don’t mind mediocre filtration, it’s a smart buy.
