Hoover Steam Vac Carpet/Floor cleaner Mar 14, 2010 This machine does a good job, has good suction action. It is a bit laborsome to clean but worth it.
Unbelievably great machine! Mar 14, 2010 We just purchased this last week after reading Mary Hunt's syndicated column about it. And thank goodness we did. We had a flood from a washing machine in the house last night, it has done WONDERS extracting water from our carpets and also the wooden floors. I highly recommend this product. Little did I know we would need it for this kind of purpose. And it has risen to the occasion.
Am Pleased with the purchase. Mar 14, 2010 I was very pleased with the purchase. It was smooth and transaction went just as I had hoped.

Over all good product with a couple of draw backs Mar 13, 2010 I have owed carpet cleaners for over 10 years and use them in my home. I previously owned Bissell brand machines. Had a total of three. The first one was great, left carpet clean and fairly dry, so when it was time to replace I tried the new Bissells with 12 rows of carpet cleaners and heat....total disapointments. They left the carpet totally wet, leaked dirty water, nightmares...so back to Costco they went.
I decided on the Hoover SteamVac after reading the reviewes here. My experince so far has been that this machine is an over all good household cleaner, but has a couple of drawbacks.
Pros:
1. Great suction - leaves carpets only slightly moist - exactly what I would expect for quick dry times.
2. Separate clean and dirty water containers (easier to gauge need to refill/empty)
3. Hand tool has rotating brushes.
4. "CLEAN SURGE" deposits more cleaning solution.
Cons:
1. No way to stop the suction and have scrubbers do the work.
2. No additional heat added to the solution.
3. Hand tool hose not easily connected.
4. Hand tool hose feels 'cheap'
re Cons. 1. Previous carpet cleaners I owned had a way to have the brushes continue rotating without suction. This machine uses the power of the suction to turn the brushes, it's either both, or none. Same for the hand held tool.
2. Other machines add heat to the solution to keep it warm or heat it up. Once your solution is cold on this machine, it is cold on the floor. Not a major draw back but not a pro.
3. Connecting the hand tool hose is not very straight forward. Had to look at the instructions a couple of times before I figured it out. Have to connect to two different spots. Putting it away took looking at the instructions as well.
4. Don't know how long the tool will last, but it doesn't feel as high quality as others I have used.
Over all good buy for light to moderate house use. Worth the $$ I paid for it.
Good Cleaner Mar 12, 2010 The only thing I want to say is be SURE to buy pretreatment spray! It doesn't come with the machine, and I had to over saturate my carpet to get the high traffic zones clean. Took a long time to dry because of that. Otherwise it seems like a great machine!
