At Hoover, Our Standard For Clean Is Always Set On HIGH®. The Hoover® brand is continuing that tradition with its new family of TwinTank™ Steam Cleaners. These steam cleaners are designed to clean and refresh your entire home, while conveniently removing tough stains and everyday dirt and grime. These Hoover® steam cleaners offer a unique approach to steam cleaning by utilizing an adjustable control TwinTank™ system, which allows the user to clean surfaces of their home with steam alone, or with Hoover® SteamPlus™ Cleaning Solution. Fingertip controls on each Hoover® steam cleaner makes cleaning tasks simple with the flexibility you want and the true clean you deserve. The TwinTank™ Handheld Steam Cleaner has been designed to meet the needs of almost any above-the-floor cleaning task. Unlike competitors that rely only on steam, Hoover® provides a proprietary 100% biodegradable formula solution that allows the Hoover® TwinTank™ Handheld Steam Cleaner to OUT CLEAN other handheld steam cleaners1. With 10 accessories and tools included to clean tile, grout, appliances, countertops, windows, and more, it’s no question this steam cleaner will make cleaning your home easier.
Unlike other steam cleaning products, the ability to use a safe and effective cleaning solution allows the Hoover® TwinTank™ Handheld Steam Cleaner to OUTCLEAN* other handheld steam cleaners. Steam alone cannot clean every spill or stain without an extended exposure time. Keeping an average steam cleaner on one spot long enough to completely clean a stain with steam alone may risk damaging your surfaces. The unique Hoover® SteamPlus™ Cleaning Solution included with this steamer allows for a quick and effective clean, aided by the heat and ease of steam.

Amazing what some steam can do! There has been this stain on my vinyl floor for the last several years. No amount of mopping, scrubbing or chemicals have been able to get it completely removed. To this day I still have no idea where this stubborn stain had come from. After receiving this product I thought, “If this can get that stupid stain out, I’ll give it a 5 star review.” So to work I went.At first I used the extender attachment on the floor (along with the cleaner that came with the product), set it to high clean, blasted it for several minutes, wiped it with a rag and the stain didn’t budge. I was about to call it quits but for the sake of the review I thought, “What the heck… I’ll give the small plastic brush attachment a shot” but had little expectation after that. The plastic (not metal) brush in conjunction with the steam removed the stain with just a little elbow grease. I was floored (hehe)! I no longer have to hide the stain with an awkwardly placed appliance. Also shocking, my vinyl floor has a ton of grooves and pits by design and all of the darker ridges I thought were part of the design was actually dirt that had gotten deep into the vinyl! When I stopped cleaning my stain area I realized how gross the rest of the floor was by comparison. I mop and sweep regularly!!!After that I started seeking out things in the house that needed a good scrubbing. First up was the refrigerator door handle. I have a white fridge with a plastic textured handle that has turned gray from grubby kid hands. It only took seconds for the grossness to melt away as opposed to the other times I have cleaned it and scrubbed for several minutes. I was starting to wish I had kept the old nasty shower door from the bathroom before the remodel. I am super curious to hear how this performs on showers from others’ experiences. The only reason we didn’t put a shower door in the bathroom post-remodel is because it was ridiculous to keep clean.So why four-stars after my promise of a five-star review if Hoover could remove my stain? Well…. I used it on a HOT day and was wearing shorts and was barefoot… yeah… I know… but between the heat and the steam I wasn’t putting on long pants to test a product that I didn’t believe would actually work. I also moved my precious works of art from the fridge to the nearby kitchen table. I removed one star for the amount of sputtering which hit my legs/feet and ended up on my Picassos. I did NOT receive burns and there was no major damage to my child’s artwork, however, I think there should definitely be less sputtering and the Hoover should be able to maintain a steady flow of steam instead of steam/spray/sputter/steam. I would recommend pants or other protective clothing in case your skin is more sensitive then mine and be sure to move items away from the surrounding area where you will be working. Also, all the sputtering just makes water pool up on the floor unnecessarily, wastes the water/cleaning solution, and makes the steamer less effective.I have posted my before and after stain photos under “Product Images” if anyone is interested. I highly recommended this product to save time and energy getting out those tough stains/messes that seem to melt away with this product.
Finally able to get areas clean I wasn’t able to before The Hoover Enhanced Clean handheld steam cleaner is a powerhouse in a small package. In hand the unit feels no heavier and is no larger than a pitcher of water half full. Not difficult by any means to carry around and use, but at the same time is quality made. One can tell that every attention to detail has been addressed when they were making this.Each attachment locks into place securely, but is also simple enough to figure out how to put together with out instruction. It comes with a wonderful selection of brushes and tools, one for every cleaning job you can think of. The hose attachments have 2 reusable cloth pads for each attachment (total of 4). So even if you have one being washed in the laundry, you have a second one that can still be used. The bristles on the brushes are a mix of ones made of firm nylon some with wire bristles.The unit itself is extremely easy to operate. The on/off button is on the side near the bottom. A blue light indicates when it’s turned on and another light indicates when the steam is ready. There is a not near the top which allows you to adjust the amount (if any is used) of cleaner that is mixed in with the steam. The steam is released by pressing down on a lever on the handle. The nob on the top of the unit is for opening and closing the area where you pour in the water. This nob has a rubber texture to it so one can easily grip it even if their hands are wet. The option use cleaning solution is poured into a small reservoir located at the bottom of the handle.I am beyond thrilled with the performance of this steam cleaner. I am able to steam out dirt that has wedged itself in the seams of our floors between the flooring and kitchen cabinets. I am able to get the black stuff cleaned out from the inside of window frames, clean out the sticky stuff that collects under the microwave and refrigerator, remove the mold from crevices in the bathtub and steam away the yuck that you can’t see from around faucets in the kitchen and bathrooms.No matter how clean it seems you are able to get something with paper towels and spray cleaners, you will be shocked how much more dirt/grease/mold/etc its removed when you use a steam cleaner afterwards.This unit gets very hot and packs a lot of steam for being compact and handheld. It’s easy to use and even comes with a Hoover tote bag for keeping your steamer safe and the accessories all together. Sleek looking and built for results, I high recommend this Hoover Enhanced Clean Steam Cleaner if you looking for stellar results and working within a budget.
