Great cleaner for the price [Posted on 2008-07-20]
I purchased this product after my Bissel steam deluxe burnt. It was leary because the price on this one is much less. But, a it turns out, I am rather impressed. It is much easier to load, and to clean as each step has a different reservoir. Quick to set up and quick to use. It has done a better job on stains, perhaps because of the design of the scrubbing brushes. The switches are in good locations and comfortable during operation.
If I found a drawback it would be I think that it could leave the carpet a little dryer. I have had it turn out great, near dry and then the next time damper than I would like. I am not sure if it was something I did or not. The front area suctions well, and cathes more hair and dust than one would imagine was even there! I would purchase this product again just because of the ease of use and clean up it makes it more inviting to use frequently.

I've used different models in the past from friends and have loved the outcome of my carpets everytime. I do not believe in using the amount of carpet cleaning detergent that the instructions tell you to use, just a way to get you to buy more. I use just a splash. Anyway, good machine, and I appreciate the tools it comes with. I justified the cost by sharing it with the whole family. Pays for itself in no time.
Easy to Use & Highly Effective [Posted on 2008-07-24]
I read dozens and dozens of positive reviews and I'm happy to count myself among the highly satisfied buyers. I have a lot of Berber carpeting which is sometimes difficult to clean. I'm also leery of buying "cheap" products so I was concerned this machine wouldn't have the power to get the job done. It took my about 20 minutes to assemble the machine and I was off and running. We live in an area with very high humidity levels and I was absolutely thrilled how dry the carpet was after cleaning. I did use a couple of extra suction strokes. The carpet/house smelled fresh, but not cloying and the scent dissipated quickly. The hand attachment (upholstery/stairs) isn't the greatest on Berber, but it got the job done. I raved so much about the ease of use and the results that a friend bought one the very next day.
good for its price [Posted on 2008-07-24]
If one follows the directions for set-up, and lets the machine do the work, this steamvac is a good buy. The amount of dirt picked up from the carpet that had never been cleaned was amazing. The carpet, that we vacuumed regularly, changed a shade after cleaning.
Again, this is a cost effective investment in keeping your carpets clean over the long term.
Life/carpet saver [Posted on 2008-07-25]
This is a small wonderful machine!! I love that the handtool is separate and can be attatched when you like. This way I do not loose suction nor does it drip when the handle is not in use, like my previous hoover cleaner. It is much lighter than my previous model. I wish the cleaning path was wider, but the pros outweigh the cons.
This is my 4th hoover carpet cleaner in probably 16 years. The others had the hand tool attached and the hose would break from the bending of the machine to empty the scum bucket. The hose was not made sturdy enough to withstand constant bending. ( I use my machines at least 2 times a month) Since this model has them as a removable attachment, I am very optomistic that this one will last longer. I have 2 kids, 2 cats, and 2 dogs to clean up after and being without my hoover is too costly. Carpet cleaner companies charge over $100 per visit.
I make 3 passes on the carpet. 1. Fill scum bucket with water so it does not suck up water. Do a pass on the carpet with Oxi clean. 2. empty scum bucket and fill container with normal carpet cleaner soap. Pass over carpet and suck up at the same time. 3. Pass over carpet and rinse with plain water. Make sure you have sucked up all water the machine can get. This 3 step process has proven to save me thousands of dollars.
Love this machine. you will too.
Blessings,
Pam
