I would not purchase another Hoover SteamVac Model F5914-900 because: 1) not a value for the price; 2) cheap construction; 3) clumsy to use. In spite of the fact that it did a decent job in cleaning our carpets and had adequate suction to remove soil and most of the so-called "steam" that was dispensed. For the money we paid, I expected it to last more than 2 1/2 years, during which time I used it about once a month. I cleaned the unit thoroughly after each use and kept it in clean and dry storage area. And yes, I did review all the troubleshooting details and ruled out any "Possible Cause(s)" and none of the "Possible Solution(s)" worked either. The only alternative - call an "authorized" Hoover Warranty Service Dealer - no thanks! The replacement will be a Bissel!
What's great about it: Cleaned carpets well - optimal moisture removal
What's not so great: For the money we paid, I expected it to last longer than 2 1/2 years
