> 3 dayI always say I will write a review and I never do. This carpet cleaner gave me the motivation. Cons: seriously, none! Pros: -There are separate tanks for water and solution. A person like me who doesn’t want to read directions cannot mess this up. -There are attachments that make it so simple to clean things other than carpet. I cleaned the stairs, the dining room chairs (gross, by the way), and my car. One attachment even has an oscillating brush! The smaller attachments were perfect for cleaning the car. -Every part that gets dirty in the cleaning process is removed- easily removed. I was able to simply remove each part and take them to the utility sink instead of taking a toothpick to the machine like I’ve done in the past. -It did a great job of cleaning! My dining room chairs were so gross. Never get cloth dining chairs when you have kids. Anyway, the water that was coming out of there as it cleaned…. Yeah, it does a good job cleaning. If you’re going back and forth between this cleaner and another, I can’t speak for any other cleaners, but this one is truly perfection.

> 3 dayThe progressive innovations over the years make this cleaner top notch and convenient to use. This is my 4th carpet cleaner (2nd Hoover). Bissel has been good but more difficult to work with than the Hoover brand. Kudos to Hoover for the continued improvements! The machine is fragile in the sense that its mostly plastic. So requires deft handling. But the good price point and light handling are strong points. In my experience this type of machine is good for 2-3 years, depending on how heavily it is used. The convenience and effectiveness of the machine is delightful to a bi-weekly carpet cleaner (dogs).

> 3 dayMY 20 year old Hoover spin brush 50 Died a few days ago. I needed a new Turbine part which Hoover didnt make any more so I bowered my daughters Bissel and that didnt work at all so I ordered a newer Hoover 50 which I received in 3 Days.....WOW!!!! This Hoover did a Fantastic Job on my 15 year old carpet. On the last pic there was a dark grey path from my Bedroom to the kitchen....IT is GONE! This Hoover operates similar to my old one, except it has a rinse feature which I like. I didnt like the cord hook....could have had a lock feature and a couple of feet longer. All in All Hoover is the best in my opinion.....Hope this one lasts 20 anual use years!!!! CLEAN yor Machine after each use....It will last longer!!!

> 3 dayAbout 25 or so years ago, I decided I was going to make some quick money by getting into the carpet cleaning business so I bought some heavy duty equipment; an Electrolux Epic Pro scrubber, Riccar upright vacuum and a Bissell Mean Green machine to use an an extractor. I never made any money, much less quick money, but I have had that equipment with me ever since and it still works as well today as when it was bought. It has been used, borrowed, abused and used some more. I decided I needed a new machine, an all-in-one, because I got tired of lugging everything out, dragging hoses, cords, spot cleaners and so on to clean a small area. So I researched, and researched, and researched some more and decided to buy a Bissell Big Green Commercial unit. As I began to order it, the thought of spending $400 on a giant 50 lb machine I have to drag out every time I need to clean a spot seemed to go against what I was trying to do. Then it dawned on me, Oh yeah, I have an upstairs.. Nope. Im not dragging that thing around. Then there are the times when it will be borrowed and I will have to lift it, load it, unload it, etc. So I backed out. I decided on the Hoover Scrub Deluxe based on reviews and ordered it through Amazon. Amazingly it arrived one day early on the two day shipping. Thanks Amazon or UPS or whomever is responsible. Anyway, here are my thoughts on it. Just so you know, I have high pile carpets so this machine is already at a bit of a disadvantage. Im going to start with cons: *The handle is not that robust and cheaply attached. Use caution not to put undue lateral pressure on it to force the machine around. It works fine for back-and-forth motion. *The gasket on the bottom of the fresh water tank is cheap. It leaks. It will wear out rapidly. Go ahead and order a couple and keep them on hand. *The solution and fresh water fill ports are identical. The identifiers are molded into the plastic and easy to overlook. Grab some markers and label them. *The tanks are small and go through water quickly. Just cleaning the main walkways in a small room necessitated about three fill-ups and dumps. BTW, remember the cheap gasket? Since you have to remove the water tank to fill it up so many times, it leaks momentarily every time you reinstall it but mine sealed off eventually after each tank install. It might be better to set the water tank on the machine so the fill tank doesnt leak and then just fill it in place with a gallon jug or something. * The cord is short. Im assuming the big companies must T&E folks with tiny houses because cords on home appliances are always too short. Just grab a 6 extension cord as thats about how much more you need. One other thing, and if it wasnt for the fact I have to box and ship the machine this *might* be deal breaker as it bothers me that much, the cord is routed through the bottom of the machine so you will run over it constantly. Yeah, there is a holding clip on the handle but now the cord is about 2 shorter so Im having to whip the cord like a cowboy lassoing a calf to keep it out from under the wheels. Come on Hoover, or China or whatever. Stop that crap. *The scrub brush. Im pretty sure they just stuck that thing on there to say it has one. It freely floats about 2 with very little down pressure and the bristles are fine and soft. What the heck is that thing for anyway? Its darn sure not scrubbing anything. Its probably better to just take it off as its just in the way. Okay, so now the pros: Now, you might think from what I listed above that I hate this machine. Actually I was somewhat impressed with it. Im not sure how it cleans with that crappy little scrub brush but it looked like I was pulling chocolate milk out of my carpets. I regularly vacuum and just did some carpet cleaning about a week ago so I was a little disgusted. This little machine is phenomenal when it comes to spraying and suction and this is where it shines. Its not a carpet scrubber. You would need to buy a dedicated unit for that job. This is an extractor and a darn good one. I used the Hoover soap solution that was included but as soon as I opened the container, I wasnt a fan of the soapy smell. I went ahead and mixed up a 1/2 soap 1/2 water mix on the solution side (and eventually went to 1/3 soap 2/3 water) but started cleaning the carpet with straight ol hot tap water. In case youre wondering, the tank is split with a rinse side for straight water and a wash side for water soap mix. I did a standard rinse pushing forward, extract pulling back and was amazed at how well it worked. Just using hot tap water worked as well as the solution but I went ahead and injected a little Hoover soap into the carpet. Its not so bad when greatly diluted so no headaches. Most of the carpets were okay enough to walk on with bare feet within about 30 minutes, although not dry. Im writing this within an hour of finishing the cleaning so they are still damp. I figure a few hours and we will be good to go. So, what do you get for $140? Well, you get a China-plastic machine with upholstery attachments that has small tanks, leaks a little right out of the box and has a useless scrub brush but somehow still cleans carpets pretty well. I think its a little overpriced for what it is but for small rooms and spot cleaning it should be worth it if the longevity is there. If you really want to make your carpets clean, in this price range I think you would be hard pressed to find a unit with better spraying and suction short of buying a heavy-duty commercial unit. Just buy an actual carpet scrubber with real nap lifters in conjunction with the Hoover. Vacuum really well, then scrub your carpet, extract using hot water with the Hoover then, if you have high pile or plush carpets, go back over your carpet with the nap lifters. It will look brand new again.

> 3 dayI received my Hoover on Sunday, June 4, 3023. I have to say I was nervous to purchase this after reading some of the reviews concerning leakage. In my opinion, this is the best carpet cleaner I have used by far. It performed very well. The only issue I had was it did not come with the screws to attach the handle as it was suppose to. Luckily I had screws that fit. Outside of that I had no issues at all. I was amazed with the amount of dirt and dog hair this one machine collected. I am very please with the results. Great buy. No complaints here.
