Hoover PowerDash Pet Compact Carpet Cleaner, Shampooer Machine, Lightweight, FH50700, Blue

I typically don’t waste time writing reviews, but I am really blown away by the power that this little unit offers. I have mostly wood and tile floors, but I do have one large shag rug that always smells like dog lately. I’ve used smaller carpet cleaners on it, handheld carpet cleaners, and it just wasn’t getting clean. I was just about to throw it away and figured I would try this machine because it got great reviews. BLOWN. AWAY. this little machine packs a punch for sure. It is by far the most powerful suction of any carpet cleaner I have ever used, including full-size machines. It pulled so much hair and fuzz out of my rug that my vacuum didn’t touch, and former cleanings didn’t touch. It’s a basic model, with small reservoirs, so the only drawback is having to empty the dirty bin and refill the water solution, but it’s a pretty small trade off for such a powerful machine. This machine saved my rug, and got it clean enough that it looks brand new inside of about an hour. I’ve been a Bissell loyalist for years just having pets, but this out performs any Bissell machine I own, and I own three currently

Overall it’s a great product. The only thing bothering me is the fact that I have to fill in the water and clean the filter every 2 or 3 minutes. I Would have liked it to go a bit longer. Beside that small drawback, it’s definitely worth every single penny. It works great, super easy to maneuver, and cleans deep dirt. This is 5 years of dirt that I just cleaned. I’m so happy and feel so good to have a clean carpet. I ran out of cleaning solution and had to stop the cleaning session, but the result is great so far.

I love this carpet cleaner! Im disabled, but this is so easy to use and does a good job, lightweight and easy to maneuver.. I keep the recommended carpet cleaner in the canister, and I just use it as necessary. Its great! (and Im a pretty hard to please). Give it a try, its wonderful.

Easy assembly easy fill water/ cleaner bottle and easy empty dieting water empty process. Used one time one day after delivery and cleaned 2 bedroom light color carpers one long runner closet carpet one hallway runner carpet 2 small bathroom carpet mats and one medium living room center carpet, this required 3 full clean water bottles with cleaner but cleaning was exceptionally good with hoover cleaning liquid supplied with small bottle already all used up. Pet stains from one cat were removed 90 percent and a weekly clean with this machine will keep carpets rugs looking very good for a long time. Lightweight and easy to move around on carpets it really lifted a lot of dirty brown water . The best policy is to not over wet the carpets rugs and so greatly reduce drying time. Additional cleaning weekly will improve carpet appearance even more. Great price for a great little cleaner . Highly recommended for its cleaning ability at this time of writing.

Weve got white carpeting in our living/dining area and upstairs in the hallway and master bedroom. The carpet was not new when we bought the house, but had been cleaned, and looked great. We moved in with our three dogs and our two cats, and somehow, we havent figured out what caused it, the carpet began to get a bit dirty, especially in areas where our biggest dog (Zeus, an 85 pound teddy bear) prefers to sleep. Then, a few months ago, my elderly mother moved in with us, and she has two small dogs who decided to come along for the ride. One of those two dogs (Katie, a Feist dog who looks like a tiny deer more than anything else,) isnt housebroken. Is. Not. Housebroke. Not at all. Not even a little bit. She *was* housebroken at my moms house, before Mom moved in with us, but Katie is a shelter dog, and we dont know if she was abused or just severely neglected before the shelter got her, but timid doesnt even begin to describe this dog. Shes not afraid of *us* anymore, and gets along great with the other dogs, but fear is her steadfast companion, and for whatever reason, she has decided that one thing to be afraid of is the very idea of going outside without my mom. The people who owned this house before we did also had a small dog. I dont know how well housebroken that dog was, but, I used to work for a carpet cleaning company, and one thing I learned there is about wicking. What can happen is, lets say that your dog--or our Katie--pees on the carpet and happens to pee where some other dog once peed on the carpet too. Not only can Katie leave a stain, but, the moisture can actually cause the stain from the *old* pee to get wicked back up to the surface, just the same way that oil is wicked up in a lantern to burn by the .... well, by the wick. So apparently Katie is pretty good at finding old pee stains because very often, where she chooses to pee we not only get her new pee stain, but another stain as well, with brown edges. Nice, right? Our white carpet quickly became white, yellow, brown, and ugh, colors. And yes, in this case, ugh is a color. I was desperate. We cant afford new carpet and no one in their right mind would buy new carpet before the final dog was housebroken anyway, but if anyone had come over to visit with the carpet looking like this... okay, I was about to say I would have died of embarrassment but that would be overstating my degree of concern about what other people think by about a million degrees. Still, were pretty fond of this house (a mid century modern) and its looks, and we wouldnt want the carpet to be the thing people remembered the most about the house, especially not when theres a backyard with 5 dogs pooping in it for them to remember instead. (Flies. We have flies. Even though we scoop, we have flies.) Enter this little machine. For the price, I have to tell ya, I wasnt expecting *too* much. Then again, I was expecting *something* or I wouldnt have bought it. What I got was, in fact, a lot more than I was expecting, I can tell you that. I followed the quick start guide and put it together; all very simple. I filled the water tank with water and a little of the detergent that came with it, plugged the machine in, and fired it up, after first tempering my husband and mothers expectations by letting them know that it was possible that it wouldnt do anything except make the wicking problem even worse, and advising them that for that reason, I was going to test just a small area. Listen... well, no, just read. No wicking problem. New stains are gone. Old stains are gone. Does the carpet look brand new again? Well, no. But it looks as good as it does when we moved in here. The machine spits the water into the carpet, rub-a-dub-dubs it however much you want it to, and then when youre ready, it sucks the water back out again, and applies some heat to help start it on its way to getting dry again. Easy as can be. In fact, Im afraid to say this because we ARE talking about housework here but its actually kind of.... well.... fun. I dont SAY that about housework. But the thing is that its not housework I hate. In fact, I *love* housework when its not overly strenuous, doesnt make me sweat, and I can look at what Ive just done and really tell that I DID something, and this machine covers all those points. And for the price? Well. All I can say is that its one of the best purchases Ive ever made, and if you could see my buying-history, and thank god you cant, youd realize what a huge statement that is for me to say. There may be some carpet cleaning jobs it wouldnt be recommended for, but not any carpet cleaning jobs that *I* would ever do. Thats a fact. I love this thing. I love it so much Im going to name it. I just havent chosen the perfect name yet. Im thinking Slosh, though. Even though it doesnt. Slosh, that is. Oh yeah, emptying out the dirty water so that you can put in some nice clean water and clean more carpet is easy as can be, also. And be sure and vacuum first if you have pets. I didnt because I was in such a hurry to try this bad mofo out, and I was rewarded by having the machine spit out a couple of (quite clean!) hairballs while I was doing my test area. So yeah. Vacuum first. Buy this. This is the droid youre looking for.

Best carpet cleaner out there.and it has small pipe to clean couch or stairs.love it.

Definitely Happy with this. Definitely made a difference and works I will buy the bigger version too just because I know this is good. Easy to clean. Comes with a mini shampoo but I got the big bottle too and definitely get the big bottle with it I have carpets in every room but kitchen and bathroom and I did all of them but did need the big bottle.

I purchased this unit back in December of 2022 to have a small light weight unit that I could lift up the stairs. When I tell you this unit is fantastic!!!!! It cleans heavy stains with total ease. The only issue is the carpet cleaner solution container is small and must be replenished often while cleaning a particularly small area. Otherwise, its a great product for the price.

Let me start by saying this is an awesome, light-weight carpet shampooer. It does a good job. I borrowed this exact one from my daughter because my old shampooer finally died. I have white carpeting in the bedrooms and I was SO impressed at what a good job it did. I have two little dogs who can make a big mess! I was impressed at how clean it got the carpets, how quickly the carpets dried (great suction power!) and how light-weight it was while pushing and pulling it around. The price was right too. Only $88. (At Target) I rushed into buying it without reading the reviews first. Which I always do! I figured if my daughter still had hers after three years, why bother. Well here comes the reason I only gave it three stars! It lasted ONE YEAR AND ONE DAY! Yes, it died one day after the manufacturers warranty expired. I went in and read the reviews and LOTS and LOTS of people said the same thing!! This time I went on Amazon and bought the same one (it was a little more $$$) AND bought the extended warranty for $20 additional. WARNING: Its a great little carpet cleaner but make sure you buy the extended warranty!

Really liked this product; its perfect for small rugs and steps. Suction power is great, and it comes with a small bottle of cleaner, too. Easy to use. My only complaint is that when you are all done with it and put it away, whatever little bit of water is left in the container (its nearly impossible to get it bone dry) leaks out of the bottom of the machine. We put a cloth underneath it to soak it up. Otherwise great machine.
