> 3 dayI moved into a house for rent and the carpet appeared brown. No odor so I never knew it was packed with mud. I used this vacuum 4 times throughout the week and my carpet is now the original tan color. I can definitely tell whoever had this house before me smoked. The smell was obvious once I started but quickly went away near the end of the task. 10/10 money well spent.

> 3 dayCleaned my living room carpet as soon as it was delivered. Smells clean looks clean. It does have a small water tank. That was in reviews. I filled it 3 times to empty dirty tank 2 times never ran out of soap. Im happy.

Greater than one weekI wanted to write this review after I’ve used it a few times. I previously had the bissell pro heat. All things are made of plastics now, it lasted about 3 years. I like that this unit has a separate container for clean water and dirty water. And they are huge. I love that it has separate soap dispenser then the clean water. You can wash an area and the flip the switch and rinse it without having to change out the container. My old unit had two long horizontal brushes, this one has several round brushes. I don’t feel I can go as fast as with the other but it seems to do a better job. I bought the one without heat and for that price I think it’s very good. My old unit had heat and it really didn’t seem to make a difference in the cleaning. I highly recommend buying this.

> 3 dayI got this first because it was name brand, and not super pricey. I have used it on furniture three times and on an area rug once. Super satisfying results, easy to use/understand the accessory tools. Highly recommend. It is also pretty light weight to carry up and down stairs. Only thing I would say is definitely keep the red rubber mat handy and have the carpet cleaner rest on it when using the accessory, a bit of water does come out of the main cleaner when cleaning with the accessory hose.

Greater than one weekI should have looked into it more. My previous cleaner had an option for heat. This one does not. But runs fine. Gets the job done.

> 3 dayI rarely write reviews though I always read reviews before making a purchase. So I am going to try to be more diligent about writing them. With so many available options it gets really confusing choosing among them. After hours of research and comparison, I chose this Hoover Power Scrub Deluxe Carpet Washer. Very glad I did. Like our very small cottage, our berber carpet is 23 years old and has seen lots of wear even though only the stairs, bedroom and bunkroom are carpeted. We built the cottage on our small working farm as a retreat from our hectic town life 20 minutes away. Over the years we have let friends, family members, and friends of family members use it when we were not going to be there. A lot of them seemed not to understand the dual-purpose of welcome mats. Or that shoes are not permanently affixed to the feet and can be removed. Also, we have always had dogs and cats and, naturally, as they age the likelihood of accidents increases. We are now retired and the cottage is now our permanent residence and the pale blue berber carpet is definitely an issue. Despite daily vacuuming and diligent spot cleaning with a little Bissell Mean Green, it was so stained that I do not want to describe it to you. It has been a decade since the last time it was professionally cleaned. We considered replacing the carpet but did not want to have hard flooring in our bedrooms, could not find any carpet we liked and also realized that with 2 older people, 4 older dogs, and 2 young cats in permanent residence and assorted grandchildren visiting, carpet cleaning would frequently be needed anyway. So, the Hoover Power Scrub Deluxe Carpet Washer arrived, my grandson easily assembled it ready for use. I did pretreat the worst of the stains with Hoover Platinum Collection Professional Strength Instant Stain Remover spray which I keep on hand and have used many times before and still had the stains, but thought it couldnt hurt, so why not? I used the hottest tap water and emptied the dirty water tank so many times I lost count. It took 4 or 5 hours to clean the small carpeted areas because even when the carpet looked clean on the surface, I wanted to make sure it was as clean as possible before I collapsed from exhaustion. Having the choice to switch between wash and rinse settings was a tremendous help as the cleaning solution and clean water are separated and only mix when you want them to. I alternated between wash and rinse repeatedly and then ended with rinse as suggested in the operating manual. The carpet does not look brand new but it does look and smell clean, really clean! I am amazed! There are still a few faint stains but think they may be helped when cleaned again. So convenient to have the cleaner on hand to use whenever needed. It is very easy to take apart the parts that need to be cleaned after use. I would let them dry completely before putting them back together. The cleaning solution worked great but you will need more than the 16oz bottle that comes with the machine. Amazons subscribe and save feature lowers the cost of the solution and you decide how often you want them to send a bottle. I use the subscribe and save a lot. It is convenient to have exactly what you need delivered to your door exactly when you need it. I am older and have MS so the Carpet Washer is a little on the heavy side and I had a bit of difficulty getting it up the stairs empty so I would not attempt to carry it up the stairs with water in it. It does have 2 carry handles which made it easier to carry. This may not be an issue for most people. I did collapse before I was able to do the stairs so I cannot yet say whether those particular attachments work as well as the upright machine itself. I will try to update this review when I do the stairs. I will also need to use the attachments to clean the perimeter of the rooms as there is a 1-2 line around the carpet that the upright could not reach.
