Great product for the price So I discovered that this is pretty much the exact same model as the more famous It has the clean surge as well, which does great with pet urine.I think the only difference is that it’s packaged with a small bottle of the cleaner for Pets and some wipes. As far as I can tell.I’ve been using it almost every weekend. I get down and smell the spots afterwards and only a few times did I still smell it. I used the clean surge and it did the trick.We also live where there’s new home construction and I suspect we have a lot of ‘construction dust’ in our house. Apparently we do and for new carpet it’s amazing how brown the water is! It picks up sand that I didn’t know was there.Still fairly new so we’ll see how it ages, but so far so good. I bought a few extra gadgets for it online at […] and they came fast. Even though I vacuum first, I still get dog hair caught up in the intake bit and the little removal tool only gets so much. I hope that I can keep it hair-free enough to make sure it doesn’t become a problem. The fact that you can remove the brushes is great though, so you can wash them well.
Get the Hoover SteamVac, You will LOVE it!!! How do I love my Hoover SteamVac? Let me count the ways… This carpet cleaning machine is FANTASTIC. As soon as I got the SteamVac, I cleaned some incredibly filthy areas on beige carpet. One was a major stain in a high traffic area that someone trampled into the carpet, while bringing groceries in with wet and dirty shoes. The other was an old stain my daughter made from a spilled chocolate-soymilk smoothie that she didn’t clean up properly because she was in a rush to go somewhere. The SteamVac cleaned both of these problem spots to such a respectable level that I won’t be embarrased in front of company anymore. This is an older carpet, so it doesn’t look brand new. But, that doesn’t stop me from jumping for joy.Incidentally, I don’t use the expensive, petroleum-chemical-based carpet cleaning solutions. Instead, I use water and a little bit of the nontoxic ‘Lemon’ SimpleGreen in the solution tank. I also worked on problem spots with a toothbrush and a squirt bottle with a VERY diluted solution of dishsoap and water. Then, to eliminate soap residue, a final rinse over the whole shebang with a solution of plain vinegar and water. TIP: If you want to experiment with carpet-cleaning solutions yourself, just be sure you pick LOW-SUDSING products.And, nobody beats AMAZON on price. Can I just say FREE SHIPPING? Incredible!
A SteamVac, but with no heat? I was very excited at the prospect of having a carpet cleaner that would steam clean and at least use hot water to clean the tough spots on my carpet. Unfortunately, the “SteamVac” doesn’t do that. It doesn’t heat the water that is being used on the carpet, nor does it produce any steam. It does blow hot air onto the carpet, though I’m not sure how that assists in cleaning the carpet.I have a small front room, empty of furniture for the moment, but with several stains and high traffic dirt in the main walkway. I used this room as my test area to see how well this carpet cleaner worked. Below are my findings:Pros:* It is easy to use and set up based on the enclosed instructions.* The machine is very sturdy and will withstand the test of time.* The spin brushes seem to loosen the dirt and the suction does a good job extracting the water from the carpet. I could see a lot of dirt coming through the machine with each suction and when I dumped the used water it was filled with gunk.Cons:* The machine leaks water when it sits for a bit. I had been cleaning my carpet and stopped to answer the phone. When I returned from my phone call the machine was sitting in a puddle. What a mess!* It isn’t heated cleaning! When I returned from the phone call and started cleaning again I realized that it was just cold water going through the unit. It didn’t heat or steam the water at all! If you want hot water with your cleaning, you have to put hot water in the unit initially and clean before the water cools down. This is tough because it takes a while to use.* My spots remained on the carpet. If this would have been a true hot water/steam cleaner I think those tough spots would have been removed. Others have posted that they have gotten spots out of their carpets with this machine, but they are also doing some intensive spot treatments.* The attachment is difficult to use on the stairs. This was a real struggle and didn’t seem worth the effort.All in all I was a bit disappointed in this machine. I was hoping it would have performed better on some of those trouble areas.
