Amazon Customer –
The delivery was prompt and since I was not home the box was left by my front door which was in a covered area so I was happy I did not have to go somewhere else to pick it up. I read all the instructions and there was one thing not clear. There are 2 reservoirs , one for water ( preferably) hot and and one for the detergent solution. A small 12 oz bottle is provided which has instructions to dilute with water. The manual is not clear if you use it straight from the bottle or dilute it. Some youtube videos suggested you use it straight . I phoned Amazon and they confirmed this.
I used the machine first on a Berber( closed loop) carpet and it worked quite well. It had not been cleaned in 3 years except spot cleaned. We have 2 cats all the time and occasionally a dog for a few days at a time. The water sucked up indicated from the carpet it was quite dirty as it was a dark grey. The next room was an open pile carpet about 1/2 ” deep. I found that neither the water with detergent or rinse water was not being sucked up very well at all, leaving the carpet very wet. I checked everything over and could not find any problem. The vacuum part had plenty of suction. I tried pushing down on the front of the machine so it was tighter to the carpet and now it worked great, sucking up plenty of the water detergent mix. It was not practical to push the machine from the back with the handle down and try and push the front down close to the floor at the same time. I had both a 5 lb and 8 lb rubber covered barbells so I taped one of them to the handle where you grab hold of the waste water tank , which puts more pressure down at the front of the machine .
After that it worked great and I went over all the carpet I had just done and this time sucked nearly all the water out of it. Either weight worked well . The smaller one nicely sat in the handle area of the tank and only needed a bit of tape to hold it there. I will probably continue to do this the next time I use it.

I paid $150 cdn for this on sale. What a great deal!
I did my research and compared product reviews/specifications in a similar price range and I’m very happy that I chose to purchase this cleaner!
There are so many pros to this cleaner, so I’ll just list a few, then I’ll address some of the problems in the negative reviews.
First off all, the engineering of this is very well thought out! I previously had a $150 carpet cleaner, which I actually had to strap lifting weights to, in order to get it to press hard enough down on my carpet, to suck up the water (no joke). This machine however, is designed so that the dirty water collection tank always sits on top of the vacuum suction head… think about that. What that means is, as you recover more dirty water, the head presses down harder on the carpet (due to the increasing water weight), recovering almost all of the water that you’ve sprayed out…. but wait, there’s more! The heat exhaust of this machine, is vented down at the carpet, this helps to evaporate what little water remains, ingenious! This, combined with the separate water and detergent tanks, removable spinning brush heads and filters, plus the detachable stair/upholstery nozzles and many handles, really make this a no brainer purchase.
Now, to address some of the nay sayers:
To the person/people who complained about the brush heads hardly/not spinning when the machine was tilted on its back: I noticed the same thing, and it had me worried that it was broken, however I soon realized that this is most likely an intended safety feature. When tilted, the plastic cog wheel disconnects, to stop the brush heads spinning, but if you tilt it back upright, it puts pressure on the heads, engaging the shaft to cause them to spin (I verified this by reaching my hand slightly underneath, although I strongly discourage anyone from doing this)
As for the handle breaking: that person/people must have been very forceful, as I wasn’t exactly “friendly” using mine, and encountered no problems at all, everything was rigid.
For the people complaining about water leakage: this happened to me as well, but it was my own fault. It happened by placing the clean water tank on incorrectly, easily fixed. The manual also warns about not tilting the machine on its back with water in the tanks.
For the people complaining about the tank sizes: this tank is actually very large! It holds twice the water of my old, similarly priced machine.
You have to consider that:
Any greater tank size would mean, thicker plastics to handle the stresses, increasing cost.
More pressure on the brush heads meeting the carpet, which means the shaft/cog wheel might need to be made of metal to handle that stress, increasing cost.
Finally, water is heavy and if the tanks were larger, less able people would find it very heavy to lift or handle.
The bottom line is most of the negative reviews were due (like many things) to human error or not following instructions correctly.
In conclusion, I honestly don’t believe that you can beat the value this machine provides. I highly recommend this product! I would have happily paid well above what I did for this machine based upon its design and performance.
LOCOmotivRICO –
So I’ve had this unit for about 2 years now (can’t stand reviewers that give 5 stars and haven’t opened their purchase) and I’ll keep it real:
1) This thing leaks well after it’s turned off.. Pain to clean and why should I have to clean after the cleaning machine?
2) It does not have a heater, add the hottest water you can and hurry!!
3) The bristles are the thing I hate the most, they are vacuum powered not motor driven.. You can literally hear them slow/bog down if you’re going too fast (must go extremely slow) or have too thick carpet and my vacuum cleaner (shark navigator professional) does a much better job at what the cleaner it’s supposed to do.
4) My neighbors have a $60 Bissell than does an enormously better job in about half the time. Glad I didn’t pay full price but I’d rather pay a lot up front and get what I paid for.
Conclusion: But something else, anything else, this is a genuine piece of crap. Oh yeah I did have it completely disassembled and put bank together thinking there must be something wrong with the drive mechanism.. No belts/bands/drivechains, that’s where I became aware this thing is vacuum powered. Horrible “cleaner”. Don’t say I didn’t warn you if you buy this thing. Cheers.

Me mudé a un nuevo departamento y la alfombra lucia como si jamás hubiera sido lavada, hablo de una alfombra de calidad baja, sin mantenimiento, en terrible estado.
Esta máquina es buenísima, no es tan grande como imagine por qué lo que leí en algunos comentarios, la elegí por tener la opción modo manual que el modelo más pequeño no tiene y lo use para limpiar las torres de gatos que pensé en tirar a la basura y recuperaron su color 😺
No logra limpiar las orillas pegadas a la pared o algún mueble, pero puedes usar para eso la manguera y hacerlo en modo manual y queda todo parejo.
Cuando apaguen la máquina inmediatamente pónganla inclinada hacia atrás, o el agua sucia que estaba llendo al depósito (y no llego) se regresa, se sale y mancha la alfombra. También pueden inclinarla dejando encendida durante un minuto para que el agua llegue al depósito completamente y no haya derrames.
El mantenimiento al terminar su uso fue fácil: sacar tanques, quitar boquilla de succión y cepillos, enjuagar todo y dejar secando en algún lugar.
Juzguen ustedes mismos los resultados, les dejo las fotos y video 😉
Yo estoy encantada con los resultados 😍

I should have bought this year’s ago!
Easy to assemble, easy to use, easy to clean and refill! Not too heavy and has excellent suction!!
Note: You will need to buy more cleaning solution as the bottle that came with it didn’t go far! Canadian Tire or Home Depot have large jugs of carpet cleaners for reasonable prices. Delivery was also one day earlier which was great!!
If you’re thinking of purchasing a carpet cleaner this is the one!! Go for it! You won’t be sorry!

This thing is amazing!! After my tenants moved out, we were putting the house up for sale. I used it once, let it dry then again and the results were incredible! We were worried we had to replace the carpets (2 dogs). It’s fairly easy to assemble and clean. I like the small upholstery cleaner too. I use it on the carpet as well in areas harder to reach with the machine. It worked just as good. It does use a lot of water but so worth it!! Don’t waste your money on fancy detergent cleaners. Go to Home Depot and get the large $10 jug, works better than the expensive ones and you get 3x as much. I did my research and this one had the best reviews for the cost. If you have pets or kids this is so worth the money!

Initial reaction when I had first received this Carpet cleaner, was pretty good. Opened the box, only thing I had to assemble was the handle and it was ready to go. Most of the 5-Star reviews have covered the good part of its functioning. I will highlight what they may not have experienced yet.
The SpinScrub brushes makes the spinning action using a turbine mechanism. This turbine has cheap parts and it starts rusting as soon as it comes in touch with water, which could happen right after the first wash. This issue has been widely reported in Hoover’s other models as well, and yet Hoover’s clueless Engineering team is unable to change the design or the parts and keeps on using non-stainless steel and cheap parts which seize to operate, right after they come in contact with water and rust.
Check the following link on Amazon Q&A where a user has asked a question after his or her machine stopped working:
https://www.amazon.com/Brushes-not-spinning-something-internally/forum/Fx23UOVL4I8KXTK/Tx26GM4WHEYHZHV/1?asin=B00009R66F
When I experienced this issue as I was getting ready to use the machine, I did an online search and numerous videos on how to fix the Hoover carpet cleaner’s turbine mechanism. It’s just been a year and have used the cleaner twice. I am very handy with fixing things. So, I thought, I will give it a try before calling Hoover for warranty claim. In my case though, it won’t fix as the shaft between two bearings is completely rusted and jammed. The bearings are rusted too, tried using WD-40 and tried to move the part but it won’t budge.
I have now sent a message to Hoover Support, let’s see how quickly they can have it fixed. I will come back and update the review accordingly.
—– Update as of May 4th —–
My machine was still under warranty. I had contacted the Hoover Support via email but they refused to send the affected part and instead referred to me to their authorized service center. I tried to reason with them that it’s waste of time for me drive about 11 mi to take the machine for a problem which I have already diagnosed. They refused and reiterated to take it to authorized service center. I had eventually taken the machine last week to service center. The service center folks were very receptive and told me that this is a common problem but good for their business. Warranty or not, they get paid either way.
Service Center had called me last Saturday that they had replaced the part under warranty. I just need to now pick it up.
—– Update as of May 6th —–
I picked up the machine today and it has a new turbine that rotates the SpinScrub brushes. This repair was done under warranty but I am concerned that warranty would soon expire. So, I asked the service tech about what options I have when (not if) it happens again. He told me that the part is about $30 and their service fee for changing the part is $20. So, I will be looking at $50 expense every time this part needs replacement as the company WILL NOT ship the part directly to consumer even if they could handle the repairs themselves.
An additional fact to keep in mind before you pick this cleaner.

This carpet cleaner has seen things… indescribable things that no one shall see or smell. Ever. We use the carpet cleaner for all over cleans along with larger spots. But let me tell you a story that goes down in history…
One day, my brother wanted my son and I to come over for dinner and so he could see his nephew. I told him that I wasn’t really sure my 150lb Pitt/Great Dane mix was feeling that great. She had the runs the night before but it seemed to be drying up. He, naturally being a brother, claimed I was using that weak excuse to get out of coming over. This peer pressure set in. I let my dog out one last time and left. For way too long. Keep in mind, my down stairs all hard flooring. The dogs have access to that, the carpeted stairs, and a small hallway of carpet. Should be fine.
Narrator: It was not fine.
Cue my return to the distinct smell of explosive diarrhea. The smell has filled the house. I see a couple of poo streaks down stairs and think, wow, what a stench for a few streaks. Oh but wait, there’s more. I slowly creep up the stairs and see brown spots as I climb up. Please no. Oh but wait, there’s more! I reach the top and see a few more small spots. Okay not terrible. BUT OH WAIT, THERES MORE!! I turn the corner and low and behold, a fecal nightmare.
At this point, you know I have a big dog and there’s poo on some carpet. Big dogs = big poos. Not only were there two large streaks of runs and plops of patties all over. The dog done pooed up the bathroom door. Still not sure on the logistics but there was splatter and patter because it was on the door, the frame, and somehow the half wall on the other side.
Now… the moment you’ve all been waiting for. The cleanup. I picked up as much waste as I could using the ole ‘hand in the bag’ technique so there was minimal solid waste. Keep in mind, the waste is cold so it’s been here a hot minute. I then pretreated with the Hoover pretreat spray, which I also highly recommend. Next was busting out the power scrub deluxe with pet cleaner shampoo. This cleaner scrubbed like there was no tomorrow. I had to do a little more than the manual recommended passes but not only do I not see any evidence from the crime committed, I can lay my face on the crime scene and SMELL NOTHING. NOTHING!!! This horrifying episode alone earned every penny spent on the carpet cleaner.
Thanks for a great product Hoover and those who took this story journey with me. Always remember to immediately clean your machine afterwards so it doesn’t get smelly.

Not as good as my Bissell Green Machine, but a whole lot cheaper (especially on sale) and does a good job. Water extraction is very good for this level of carpet cleaner. Water capacity is good. Noise level is tolerable. Light weight and easy to handle/maneuver. Good cord length. You need to go slow to get the best results on soiled areas – i.e., the scrub brushes and solution need time to work. Pre-treatment and extra passes may be needed for heavy soiling, which is (likely) true with all residential carpet cleaners…including Big Green. I prefer to use the hand-held unit for stubborn stains on pile carpet so I can scrub deep into the fibers. I sometimes spray really bad areas with other (stronger) household all-purpose cleaners…after trying them on a small hidden area first for color-fastness (and be sure to rinse thoroughly). Definitely satisfied!

I am COMPLETELY disappointed in Hoover for this product. Several months ago, I threw it in the trash because when my husband took it apart to see why it wasn’t working anymore, all of the parts were rusted! Are you kidding me… it’s a carpet cleaner. I use it alot. I had a more advanced Hoover product before this and used it for about 3 years before it stopped working. I decided to get this because I thought I would spend a little less money and still get the quality. Forget it…. what a piece of trash. Completely wasted my money. I’m done with Hoover.
