Great Carpet Cleaner - Exceeded My Expectations

on November 23, 2008

EZ to following setup and instructions. I believe it does just as good a job as a commercial rental unit. While you fill and empty the tanks more often than a commercial rental unit - it is MUCH easier to do using the Hoover. First of all - to fill it you take the cleaning solution tank OFF the unit easily and carry it to the sink. This beats pouring hot water into rental and spilling water on the rug (always seems to happen with rentals). The dirty water tank comes off easily also and empties without spilling. You can get drips off the lid which you remove to empty - so set it in the sink (I always empty into the toilet since the water is too nasty to put in your sink).

Operating the unit is very easy and the recommended motion to use spelled out in the manual is the way to go. It is light-weight for the job it does and is not all that loud (almost anyone will be able to carry it up the steps to a second floor with its front handle). It does a very nice job of extracting the water from the carpeting.

The only thing I am a bit disappointed with is the fact that the stair tool sprays water in a very wide pattern rather than matching the suction area. This is why I gave features 4 stars. For this reason you should do the steps front to back and not side-to-side. In other words, start from the back of the step and pull toward the riser. When you do this, you will have to watch how quickly the spray pattern arrives at the riser before the vacuum.

All-In-All, I would absolutely recommend this unit to anyone looking for a carpet cleaner to use in their home and have the convenience of doing as much or as little of your house as you so desire.

What's great about it: Very well designed, Easy to Use, Does a Good Job

What's not so great: Distance between solution spray and vacuum on stair tool could be shorter

I would recommend this to a friend!
