Fits well, straps easy to attach

Perfect fit for my Hoover vacuum which was listed under the options that should fit. My vacuum had lots of screws to remove the cover but the strap was easy to install.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Feel free to order them, most likely you will need to replace yours.

So far, so good. Regularly tapped into my old filter in the trees behind my house. This is washable but has not been washed yet. This vacuum cleaner had to be discontinued many years ago. Now 10+ years old. Replaced this filter, final filter, brush rod and belt. All with parts ordered through Revain.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Contemporary

Questionable quality

The first strap in the pack of two broke almost immediately after installation, a few seconds after first use. The second belt broke on the next use after a small cloth got caught in the agitator. I have a Hoover Widepath Tempo (a very common base model) and found the strap installation unreasonably tight. It fits, but after a lot of effort tried to stretch. The original belt has served me for years with similar usage. I'm not sure if those tires are old or what but I was expecting a bit more.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Thin

Second time ordering these belts

I have to admit I'm not the most conscientious of vacuum cleaners and every now and then something accidentally gets caught in the roller brush. The first set of straps worked great for several years until I came across the wrong tip. This new belt I ordered also worked fine but was much tighter and a little more difficult to put on the vacuum belt. But everything is fine. They have been supporting my old vacuum cleaner for almost ten years and it makes me happy.

Pros
  • Good product for the price

Poor quality: belt

Yesterday I had to put the second belt from this order on the vacuum cleaner. The first one broke, lasted less than 2 months! Surprisingly since I live alone there aren't many people in my house and I don't have to vacuum more than once a week. In fact, the straps feel too tight when I change them, even though the product number is correct. Maybe old tires, maybe a broken belt, maybe an accident. But I have no plans to buy them online again. I will be going to my local vacuum shop to inspect…

Pros
  • Don't waste time
Cons
  • boring packaging

For Tempo Widepath and other Hoover models

Worked well. I have a Hoover Tempo Widepath Unmanaged Beast that sucks up things it probably shouldn't and this belt is good for that too. If you are interested in changing the belt, just unscrew the bottom (4 screws), pull out the pulley and the belt will be on the left side. Simply wrap one end around the roll and the other end around the bar above that sticks out in the recess. You will need to pull the pulley a little to stretch the strap long enough to retrieve the pulley. Then just close…

  • Wow

Buy here save yourself the hassle

THANK YOU. I finally found out they were sold at my local W but oh my god I'm so tired of looking for the right belt! Ordering here is a stroke of luck. My wind tunnel is not new and changing the straps is quite a hassle. I found some straps at a hardware store that the seller thought would fit. OMG OMG OMG, do you like the smell of burnt rubber in your house? Gagging a decent amount of smell hours later? I found the smell after the housekeeper left, disassembled the vacuum and then threw away…

Pros
  • New to my collection
Cons
  • Empty

and now my apartment smells like burnt rubber

Got my straps in the mail today (for my Hoover Tempo handheld vacuum 38528-033 in bag). I found the broken original belt and compared it to the ones I just received from Revain. New belts are much smaller than the original belt. I just put the strap on and it felt very tight when putting it on and I managed to put it on after a lot of arm strength. turned on the vacuum cleaner, it worked 1 second, clicked, and now my apartment smells like burnt rubber. I read other reviews where they had the…

Pros
  • Complete kit
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Saved me from buying a new vacuum cleaner!

We have a Hoover wind tunnel that is 2.5 years old. We don't have pets or small children but we vacuum often because we are retired at home all day. Our vacuum cleaner wasn't working well so we decided to replace the belt. It was so cheap how could I be wrong? It arrived the same week we ordered it via US Post. Yes, the belt is tight, but it's nothing as terrible as some write in the reviews. The belt must be tight. First I put the belt on the motor pin, then on the agitator (sweeper part) and…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Repair
