Equipped with a powerful 12 amp motor, this easy-to-use machine cleans carpets by applying, scrubbing, and removing hot tap water and cleaning solution. The unit's automatic detergent-mixing system provides the correct mix of detergent and water, and its six rotating SpinScrub brushes gently loosen dirt from fibers, plus they pop out for rinsing. Dual V nozzle technology focuses air velocity to ensure edge-to-edge suction power, while the unit's heated cleaning forces hot air from the motor directly into the carpet, making the solution and brushes work more efficiently. Activate the AutoRinse feature on the reverse motion to rinse the carpet with clean water. Two 1-gallon-capacity tanks keep clean solution separate from dirty solution. In addition, the included 8-foot attached hose and powered hand tool work great for cleaning stairs and upholstery, and with their removable caddy, can be stored on a coat hanger until ready for use. Other thoughtful details include brushroll shutoff, a 13-inch cleaning path, a 30-foot quick-release cord, and a removable nozzle for quick-rinse cleaning. The carpet cleaner measures approximately 20 by 12 by 44 inches and carries a two-year limited warranty.
Customer Reviews
Disgustingly Fun!
I am a noobie to deep cleaning so maybe my favorable review is from the novelty effect. Nevertheless, this SteamVac was so amazing in extracting a lot of crap from my seemingly 'clean' carpet, that I am a believer now.
Of particular note, this version has a rinse switch which you can interchange between detergent or just plain water. I loved being able to rinse the carpet immediately after shampooing because I hate residue from chemicals.
The carpet barely needed to dry because the SteamVac was so efficient. Most parts were instantly dry, no joke!
Cleaning the SteamVac is a chore, but necessary. Dont make the mistake I made of dumping out the dirty water in the bathtub, clogging up the drainage with carpet balls. Live and learn, I say.
99% of all the stains on my carpet are gone. A stubborn rust stain refused to leave, but I must admit I wasn't expecting it to; it was a heavy rust stain.
The vacuum might be a tad heavy for the more delicate person, but I relished the exercise. I spent about 2 hours cleaning my apartment, and after a little sweat now my carpet is singing. I recommend this product.
A great steamer -- not to be confused with similar models
A number of reviews listed with this machine are for another Hoover steam cleaner. There are some differences. This machine in some ways is the best, but it doesn't include the hard wood floor attachment -- something some folks say leaks. But it is an option for it. This thing really works great, most of them do. I used one of the older models without the heat function and always had good luck. The hand upholstery tool works great with auto carpet and seats (if cloth). This thing is heavy and a bit loud -- a high pitched whir that'll make cats nervous. But it works well. You don't have to use the Hoover cleaner, many others work fine (Costco). A little pretreater will get out most any stain. We've had no leaks or any other issues after six months. The directions for putting it together could be confusing (and confusion might contribute to leaks -- but shouldn't), but previous experience made it a five minute job here. Bottom line, this is a very good steam cleaner. Price played a part in the decision but it's one of the better ones out there AND it should not be confused with several similar Hoover models that may have had issues. This one is well-built and works fantastically.
