Freedom Freedom FD22L Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Freedom is the affordable range of cordless vacuum cleaners from Hoover, designed to help take the hassle out of your housework.
Lightweight and versatile, Freedom can be used not only for floors, but also for high reach cleaning, or as a handheld. A crevice tool is included to help you tackle cleaning tasks in your home, or even in your car.
Powered by lithium-ion batteries, Freedom delivers up to 20 minutes of suction power without fading: plenty of time to clean your kitchen and several other rooms of the house.
Unlike some other cordless vacuums, Freedom gives you the choice of two cleaning modes. The trigger mode allows you to clean efficiently without wasting any battery power : great if you like to stop and start, tidying up as you go along.

Great vacuum as long as you don’t have long hair!
I brought this product 12 months ago and now it won’t pick anything up I have cleaned the filter checked for any blockages there are none this product just doesn’t work don’t waste your money
Just remember this is a battery operated vacuum so is never going to have the suction of a plug in vacuum.
This vacuum cleaner works well with hard floors, it seems ok on carpet but it doesn’t like my rugs that are at different heights.
The battery lasts longer when the sweeper is not used but even using the sweeper I seem to get around 15 to 20 minutes.
I find it useful to clean the cars with and convenient to use in the house to keep on top of the cleaning.
It’s not very heavy and makes cleaning the stairs easy, it seems to handle cat fur ok and I have a long haired cat.
I use my plug in vacuum to clean the filter every so often to keep the suction at its best also Remember to empty regular or you will end up losing suction.
This little vacuum is really quite good , picks up short pet hair, fluff and dust no problem , struggles with my longer hair as it winds around the bar so quickly and stops, better on hard surfaces and short pile carpet. Good run time on battery. Really handy for doing stairs and to be honest for the price it can’t be beaten , when you look at the prices being charged for the Dyson range !!
I have had this product for three years now and it’s still going strong. I can vacume the whole house which is two floors with one charge. It picks up our hair in the bathroom and the dog’s hair on the carpet just as easily. Would recommend it.
Absolutely love the hoover . I’ve mentioned it to my father and he is thinking of purchasing one . Highly recommend this too anyone who is looking for a light hoover manoeuvres easily and has great suction
10 out 10
My mother and I bought this stick cordless vacuum as a cheaper alternative to my ‘purple one’. It was only intended for occasional use and we weren’t expecting very much. However we were very pleasantly surprised!
The Hoover has a solid quality feel with good quality plastics.
We like the business like sound of the motor. Loads of attachments are supplied.
Bin emptying is simple and easy.
We like the ease of filter cleaning and the continuous power on function that is really useful if you have hand strength issues.
In summary, Hoover have done an amazing job to produce what is an excellent vacuum at this price. I like some of the features better than those of my much more expensive vacuum. Buy with confidence.
Amazon offer a three year accident and breakdown guarantee for a very low price.
I suffer from a bad back and my upright vacuum cleaner and my Henry cylinder made the back pain worse especially on thick carpet and stairs.
This one was everything I wanted it to be, it did the stairs effortlessly and efficiently as well as the carpets. I finished in 10 minutes with no back pain. Using only the top part for the stairs was brilliant and made hoovering a pleasure, especially as it was cordless as well. Would definitely recommend this to people with back problems or withou
I have had two Dyson’s previously and although the suction doesn’t seem as good it still does the job and i have two dogs.
I am hoping it last longer than my dysons what seem to have issues after a year.
Things I love,
Lightweight and easy to carry
Easy to operate and clean
Powered rotating head
Cordless freedom
Accessories readily available and fairly low
cost
This is cheaper and better than my Gtechs
Things I don’t like so much:
20 minute battery life (solved by buying a spare battery)
No fixed head included (available as spare)
No hose included
Not powerful enough to do a really deep clean
No plug in operation, won’t operate while charging.
All in all, it’s a game changer – I have ongoing sciatica and vacuuming hurts my back after a while so operating a big vacuum cleaner is a no no for me.
I’m glad I stumbled across this one!
Smart design, love it’s cordless for easy manoeuvrability but also mounts well to a wall in the cupboard for storage/charging. Looks good and nice range of attachments. Easy to empty too without bags. However, suction isn’t great, struggles to pick up hair etc on carpets so I wish I had paid more for a dyson.
I love this vaccum the power is crazy good particularly with my cat fur. My stairs and rugs felt like new after first time using it and since.
Easy to fit each appliance onto the nozzle and empty straight into the black bin.
I was a little unsure about battery power compared to socket and lead but once fully charged lasts for me to clean the entire house.
Its quieter then my last vaccum and being cordless means I can grab it from the stand go and clean up most messes, with a almost two year old son that has saved me so much time!
Why wasn’t this checked before despatch? Shocking practice Amazon sending stuff that you know doesn’t work
All around great! What can I say exactly what it does in the tin. LOVE AND LIVE for the constant hoover switch giving me more off a better cleaning stance then I don’t have to constantly be on the trigger BETTER THEN MY CORDLESS DYSON!! I saw the Bad reviews about people’s hoovers getting broken And things but too the chance and I’m GLAD it’s such a nippy little hoover!!
We’ve had one of these for over a year now, this one was bought for my mum. Excellent product. Ours is still found very strong after a year and we love it. Great suction for a cordless, lightweight and easy to use, easy to empty and clean, simple automatic charging.
All in all a really great product.
Absolutely love this Hoover. My first impressions were that I thought it was too light. Then I used it and it made me happy – as I had been using an old Dyson for quite some time and it made me realise how bad the Dyson was. Great that you can remove the head and clear out all the hair with ease (there are 4 dogs and five females living at home).
The suction is superb. LOVE IT
This little Hoover is fabulous . I was a bit worried as so small. But great for dog hair. Also when I bought it it kept cutting out every few seconds. So once I gave it a full charge works perfectly. Just something you might do before you use it. Love i
Love this. We where unsure what it would be like as I know some of the more expensive models are great,.
Well I was shocked at how powerful the suction is and how sturdy it felt when using it..
we have wooden floors Down stairs where is absolute great for them.. after reading some of the reviews about it not been too great on carpet I tried on our big rug and bedrooms and to me it’s still as powerful and doesn’t seem to be much difference apart from you do have to push it a bit harder than you would with a wooden floor but I think you do will all hoovers
The product is handy and does its job. Battery lasting just 20 minutes but takes hours to charge fully is a bit disappointing.
I ordered this product from Amazon market place at half the price of a new one .The item arrived promptly in all its original packaging with no faults and unused.I have used it twice since delivery and I have been impressed by it’s overall performance – on both hard flooring and my rugs .Charging takes about 3 hours and the hoovered for 15 minutes without needing to be recharged .
The best tool for the house.
Very good suction, cleverly designed for space-saving. It’s very easy to clean.
Great but bits fall down the tube when you turn hoover of annoying
It’s my 4th Hoover of this type in the last 18 months. They all work and 3 have been given away as gifts. This little hoover is just amazing, powerful enough for everyday use and with enough charge for a quick one over for a 3 bedroom flat, easy to clean and to store away (the blue version doesn’t have a wall mount, I’m storing it in pieces). The blue version is easier to assemble/disassemble then the red one (I bought one of those in my 4 hoovers) but all of them grea
Its not as quiet as a Dyson, it doesn’t look as good. but as a hoover (sorry vacuum cleaner) it light really easy to use and has pretty good suction. Unlike the Dyson you are not meant to keep it on charge all the time, you let the battery go completely and then charge so every now and again you start to clean and it stops. No worry though.
I have a one bedroom flat with wooden floors and some carpet and it has no problem with anything, as its so easy to use you end up cleaning up after you self as you go, so from habit nothing is ever left too dirty. If you have a pet with loads of hair you might have an issue but I don’t so can’t really comment. I ended up buy 2, one for my office and one for the flat. Love it. went down to 80 quid over Christmas so keep you eye out. werd!
Look at some peoples reviews and think oh maybe I’ve made the wrong mistake but it’s decent obviously isn’t going to replace my big plug in vax wet and dry but it does almost anything like the suction isn’t the best but it’s got powered blades so the blades spin on a motor instead of the suction and it flicks up the dust and hair and the little suction it’s got just pulls it up like it really doesn’t need that much powe
I love this Hoover for the handiness, you literally just pick up, clean and put it back down. It works best on the carpets because of the motorised head. It doesn’t work as well on the tiles as the motorised head tends to flick hard bits away but for the price and the ease of use, I’d strongly recommend it.
Also great for quickly cleaning the car upholstery
Lovely, lightweight and easy to use. I have a dog that sheds hair constantly so it has changed the way I clean completely, I can hoover his hairs off the wooden floors quick and easy so can do most days now without hassle of plug in or brushing them up. Works well and short carpets, my living room is longer, fluffier texture and I’m not sure the suction is enough for this but it does a half decent job so I’m happy it’s bringing majority of hairs up on this carpet. I can now clean the whole house (3 bed semi) in about 10 mins so charge is perfect.
Right firstly bought this for rugs stairs and hard floors and I’ve had this product 1 week at it works perfectly across the house. The attachments it comes with are perfect for quick cleaning across any surfaces. It comes with a holder for the unit and it’s accessories that can be screwed into a wall. For the negative reviews this product has received I cannot understand them? They must live in a really dirty house. So far I cannot fault this machine get it and try it out.
First impressions , looks amazing
Although 12hour charge in the first charge is a bit of a pain.. but i am happy to wait.
Will review again once i test it out!
Amazed how good this product is. First time I’ve ever used one of these. Great for getting dog hairs off floor. And general carpet cleaning. Does a good clean on one charge. Although the dust pan does fill up pretty quick. But easy to empty and start again.
One thing is if anything get wet (my dogs water bowl) it quickly blocks up with wet hair. Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep this hover working perfec
Since we have purchased one of these, our lives have gotten much easier. You can attach it to the wall, so shenever you need it, you can grab it and use it. We use it everyday, mainly because of our hairy dog. It is stylish, light and very user friendly. We have got the vaccuumcleaner for about 2 years now.
After moving from France to the UK to live closer to the family, the word has spread quickly. Now my partners mum, nan, cousin 1, cousin 2, sister and neighbour have got one. All Hoovers like these, but everyone has picked their own colour so it matches their house. (to be honest? I still really like the blue one). We should get commission from Hoover.
Two quick reviews from family;
Mum – ‘I wanted to keep my old heavy hoover for the hard work, now half a year later even this one is only catching dust in the cupboard. I have only used the Hoover’
Cousing – ‘The kids like the Hoover so much, they even Hoover the house when they are playing (7&5yo)’
Do I need to say more?
great little cleaner and very light which was what I wanted. After 20 months of light use, the dust box has cracked where the spout connects to the cleaning tube. Not impressed with that, so gave it 4 stars otherwise it would have got full marks. I rang Hoover and ordered a new dust box for 22. I’m happy to carry on with the cleaner as its a good little tool.
I’ve only had this a couple of weeks but am very happy so far .. my house doesn’t get very dirty as I live on my own . It’s more than adequate for my needs as so easy to carry around and use .. sometimes the suction is so good it tends to suck carpet and won’t glide , u hav to really push it .. It has a yrs guarantee so that’s good .. .I can’t comment on pet hairs as not got any pets , (it picks my hair up ) , that’s why I’ve only given cleaning up hair 3 stars .. I never give anything full star rating until I’ve had for a long time ! So far I would def buy agai
This is by far the best hoover I ever had. It’s perfect for my small flat. I manage to clean my entire flat a few times before it runs out of battery and even when it does it charges in an hour or two. I used to never look forward to cleaning, especially hoovering because the cable is never long enough, but since I’ve purchased this one my life has been much easier. Highly recommend it!
I have always been sceptical regarding 5 star reviews.However, this hoover is fantastic! I have a spaniel and I am a very busy lady. Hoovering has never been so pleasant. I can use in the kitchen ,bedrooms and hallway as it is so light and easy .At the same time it picks up hair and everything else. You have to clean the container more often than a bigger hoover but this comes for the price of light small size efficient appliance! The battery lasts long enough to clean a 4-bedroom house. Absolutely enjoy it!
This is a nice product. Never had a dyson so cant compare but this does the job for me. Lightweight, reasonable suction and decent battery life. All good.
I was DESPERATE for a Dyson but after a hard telling off by the other half reminding me how ridiculously over-priced they are, I decided to go bargain hunting and came across this beauty!
PROS: Suction is very good considering the price of this vacuum. The inserts are extremely easy to interchange and the filters etc are VERY easy to clean! Battery life is pretty good, it’s never gone completely flat on me and I have a 2 bed house.
CONS: The only con is that the main source is quite heavy, so whenever you’re hoovering you might get a bit ache-y, I just like to think of it as a bit of muscle gain lol!
Overall – if you’re looking for an affordable, but brilliant vacuum, get this!!!
Nothing is perfect. But for the price this is close enough. The suction power could be better and battery life could be better other than that it’s great. great pricing.
This vacuum is fine if like me you need to clean a tiled or laminate floor area. The brush picks up all dust dirt and hair from these surfaces without problem. This is not a substitute for a corded vacuum though. For carpets it is fine but due to excess drag with thick pile carpets you really need to support the suction pole with your other hand as you push back and forth over a carpet. I can see why some users have experienced the cracking of the plastic at the top of the unit due to this.
Light and easy to empty. Great for keeping down dust on hard floors. Fully charged does whole house in one, although small cottage includes 2bedrooms sitting room hall and kitchen.
Short battery life, lite and durable, shame doesn’t come with brush head. Easy to clean, empty and head comes apart for removing hair, good feature
