I owned a Hoover similar to this for 10 years. It more than paid for itself for carpet cleaning. The new one has some great improvements - I especially like the surge option...worked like a charm. I use Oxyclean for initial cleansing and then switch to the provided cleaning solution (which worked well). I took another reviewer's suggestion and used fabric softner as a rinse and really like how soft the carpet feels. Only flaw that I see is the reserve tank design. The old design had a handle that locked the tank down so you could pull the tank out with one hand (useful when you have water still in the cleaner tank and don't want to lay the handle down). This new design calls for both hands which means I have to remove the water tank so I don't lay it on it's side as it does leak a bit. Also, you have to take care to poor the dirty water out of the tank on one particular side - if you choose the wrong side, dirty water will spill out everywhere. Despite that design flaw, I still like this cleaner. Hoover definitely improved the suction and attachment design and if you take care to clean things out (especially if you have a particularly messy job (pet hair, etc.) it will last a long time. Like I said, I had my old one for 10 years - it only stopped working well because I got lazy on cleaning it out. The new design is easier to clean, too.

What's great about it: The surge option really did remove some stubborn stains, cleans great

What's not so great: don't like the new reserve tank design

I would recommend this to a friend!
