Product Description This powerful home steam vacuum saves you the expense and hassle of having to rent a steam cleaner and keeps rugs, upholstery, and bare floors (other than hardwoods) looking like new. The powerful 12-amp motor combined with five spinning brushes that operate at either high or low speed lift the usual dirt and grime out of carpets. By pulling on the trigger in the comfortable upright handle, this deep cleaner releases the included carpet/upholstery cleaner and hot tap water. For more stubborn stains or for high-traffic areas, this SteamVac also has a Clean Surge feature, which sends an extra blast of cleaning solution into the stain by simply pressing a button on the handle. When cleaning is complete, release the trigger and the SteamVac forces hot air into the cleaning path so you can do a few dry strokes over the stain. This deep cleaner has two separate water tanks to keep clean water apart from dirty water. The top tank holds the detergent and 1 gallon of hot water and automatically mixes the two so you don't need to get your hands wet. The lower tank holds the dirty solution picked up from the carpet and unlatches to easily pour out into a sink without spilling. For cleaning stairs or upholstery, this deep cleaner has a long 8-foot hose and a special stair/upholstery nozzle that scrubs out spots. Other attachments include a bare floor nozzle and a powered hand tool that is also ideal for upholstery or small carpet areas. All tools are mounted on the front of the vac in a handy case. Other features of this deep cleaner include a brush indicator, which informs you that the brushes are spinning; an on/off foot pedal; a handle release pedal; and a 27-inch wraparound cord. The Hoover SteamVac is covered by a full one-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Had for a year works like a charm. September 7, 2010 Kas (USA) I bought this product over a year ago and I use it once a week in seven 10 ft by 14 ft rooms. I have never had a problem with leaking or overuse I do not use the hoover detergent but I found another generic cleaner which works just as well at a third of the price. I use all of the attachments with no problem. I also found the other review by Lissie which is listed as most helpful extremely informative. Because that review is so well written I won't bother to review in that great of detail. If i do incur any issues I will update.
Very good product. September 7, 2010 Irasema This machine works very well. The only difference with a professional equipment is the size of the tank. It pays for itself.
Effective cleaning September 5, 2010 Catherine J. Nies (SC Coast) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Summary - great cleaning, a bit heavy. I have used this a couple of times so far. Came out better than the professional cleaning I had done 2 yrs ago.
Cleaning - use recommended amount of detergent (low sudsing) and the hottest tap water you can and this will clean very well. The first carpet I attacked was the family room which had not been deep cleaned in quite a while. The take-up tank was full of very dark brown water after the first pass. Did a second pass and it took up even more. Again, this carpet was pretty bad.
Rinse - There is no "rinse mode" but that doesn't matter. Just fill the tank with clean hot water, don't add any detergent, and guess what? Rinses. I did rinse also and after it dried it seemed to help the feel of the carpet.
Maintenance - I had none of the leaking issues mentioned. You just need to be sure to properly seat the tanks and everything is fine. Definitely take the 10 minutes to clean the machine after you have used it. The spin scrub brushes come out easily, remove them, rinse them well and pull out any trapped carpet fiber. I have a spray type sink faucet and that seems to do a great job in rinsing the take-up tank. There are a lot of reservoir type spaces in the tank and turning it upside down and spraying up at it seems to work well.
Water use - The tank covered about 80 sq ft but I used the clean surge feature, which also works well, quite a bit on this carpet. Otherwise probably a tank for a 10 x 10 area.
Suction drying - The carpet was damp when done (these were short pile carpets also) but dry within 4-6 hrs.
The only slight "negative" - it is a bit heavy but that seems to help keep the nozzle on the floor and help with suction.
Hoover SteamVac Carpet Cleaner September 4, 2010 Ruth A. Tracy (Port Huron, Michigan) Without question this is a 5 star product. It was easy to put together, easy to operate, and very light weight. The 12 amp power is a real plus. My 7 year old carpet looks like new! I had been cleaning it with a Dirt Devil carpet cleaner, but it had lost its mogo :0) I saw this amazing price on Amazon--which no one else could beat (not to mention free shipping), and I thought I would give it a try. So glad I did--the water in the tank was BLACK....thanks to our sweet dog Stella. Anyway, the bottom line is--you will not be disappointed.
Great for Pomeranians!!!! September 3, 2010 Falconeer (Little Rock, AR) My wife and I recently acquired a Pomeranian* pup without first doing the research about these cute and affectionate little bundles of destruction. One of the things we learned post facto was that this breed is especially challenging to housebreak. I had borrowed my neighbor's 6 year old Hoover SteamVac so much, that it hardly ever saw its home, so I decided the right thing to do would be to buy him a replacement machine. I've had especially good luck with refurbished units, so that's the direction I went. It arrived looking like new, and it works as well as a new machine, too. It removes poop and pee stains very nicely. This model of Steam Vac works great, and I make no hesitation in recommending one - especially for Pomeranian* owners.
Verdict:
Hoover SteamVac = Thumbs up
Pomeranian* puppy = Thumbs down
Berber carpet = Thumbs down
*German for "Satan's Little Lapdog"
