Really Sucks (in a good way) !!

on December 6, 2010

Posted by: KatVonCleaner

from Denver, CO

Did lots of research before deciding to go with this one. This Hoover replaced a 10 year old Bissel and obviously there was quite a difference in the suction power and features. With my new Hoover, carpets are almost dry in 2 hours, whereas before it would be 8-10 hours. That's important for so many reasons, but for me it was great because the carpets were dry before the rug rats came home from school. I cleaned an entire house full of carpet right before Thanksgiving (and gave the dining room chairs a once-over) and was very impressed with the results, especially on the stairs. I used Hoover carpet shampoo and the Hoover spot remover (spray bottle) and ended up getting rid of some tough (and I thought permanent) stains. The way the attachments are set up seems a little strange on this machine, and you really have to make sure everything's on 'right and tight' to get adequate suction when doing stairs and/or furniture. But once you read (and maybe reread?) the directions and fully understand how it works, you're fine. This machine seems to be a workhorse, and I plan on it lasting at least ten years and I clean the entire house at least twice a year, some rooms even more. I'm satisfied with the purchase.

What's great about it: Really sucks up the water

What's not so great: The way the hose attaches to the machine when cleaning stairs or furniture. There has to be an easier way!

I would recommend this to a friend!
