TL;DR
This unit isn’t perfect but it’s an upgrade from my previous unit and the issues are minor compared to the benefits. I would recommend this and more relevantly would purchase it again if I needed a 2nd unit.
Long Version
I previously had a Hoover Powerscrub Deluxe that the water pump had stopped working on. Grabbed this unit on a prime day special and have been very pleased with how it functions and the design updates hoover has made between models. I stuck with the hoover brand because I have an assortment of hose attachments that are compatible with this new unit as well.
Out of the box assembly was very easy and straightforward. Clich the handle into place and slide the different canisters into their slots.
This unit has 3 separate tanks, compared to the previous model which had combined the solution and clean water tank into one piece. Generally you go through 2 water tanks for every cleaning tank.
The brushes on the old unit required tools to remove for cleaning, on this new model the brushes just lift out of the vacuum so they can be cleaned much easier.
One design choice that puzzles me is draining the dirty water tank is not easy. The previous unit had a drain plug on the tank, so when the tank needed to be emptied, you pulled the plug and then tilted the tank to dump the dirty water out. This new tank design just has a removable lid that also has the handle on it. So when you remove the lid to drain the tank you also remove the handle on the tank. The tank also has a lip around the top edge, which means when you dump it out, inevitably some dirt gets caught under the lip. That said, the old tank had many chambers inside it’s design and was more difficult to rinse completely clean when done using the unit, this new tank is very easy to flush out before putting the unit away.
The smartwash feature takes a little getting used to, the previous unit had a trigger to squeeze anytime you wanted it to dispense water/cleaning solution. This unit does it automatically when you push the unit forward. The is a Dry Only button to make it not dispense water, but it is ackwardly located in the middle of the unit. I wish they could have integrated that switch into the handle or put it next to the other foot toggle switches.
They improved the design of the suction nozzle as well, it is much easier to see when you are picking up water from the carpet as well as if that water is clean or still dirty.
The new unit seems to have a slightly longer cord, but it really need another 10 feet to be ideal. I always added a 25ft extension cord on the old unit for how my areas work out, that way I can route the cord around the perimeter and get the entire area without having to change outlets halfway through the room. My vacuum cleaner has a longer cord on it and that extra few feet makes a ton of difference.
This unit seems a little quieter or at least the noise tone is different, the old unit had a slight shrill pitch to it, if you were using it for more than spot cleaning I’d end up putting on a noise canceling headset and listening to music.
The previous unit had a switch on the clean water tank to make it dispense just water or a mix of cleaner/water. This unit doesn’t have that feature, but you can just pull the small cleaning solution tank off the unit to do a final rinse pass. Really a nit-pick but worth noting.

I wasn’t sure how to feel about this product at first. My previous carpet cleaner had a handle that could be squeezed to wet the carpet more, but this one is completely automatic. After 3 uses, I’ve found that this not a problem. It puts down a very consistent moisture level and can pick most of it back up right away, making it easy to get a deeper clean with additional passes. The soap and water containers are separate and water-tight, so they can be removed at any time without fear of spilling. I like this feature, because I can remote the soap container to rinse the cleaning area. It saves me money and time, because no soap is wasted and I don’t have to dump out all the pre-mixed water. It’s not possible to control how much soap it adds, but I haven’t found a problem with their chosen ratio.
My favorite thing about this is that it’s very easy to clean. The entire bottom assembly, including brushes, comes apart with just a few latches and pulls. This makes cleanup a breeze, and re-assembly is very straightforward. I’m very happy with this feature, and feel that it adds tremendous value. It cleans well, it’s easy to maintenance, and it saves me time and money.

Das Gerät konnte ich leider gar nicht erst in Betrieb nehmen, weil der Stecker nicht in eine deutsche Steckdose passt.Habe mir einen deutsch-enlischen Reisestecker bestellt und auch da funktiert nicht.Es wäre sinnvoll gewesen , wenn die Firma einen passen Adapter dazuglegt hätte. So kann man in Deutschland nichts damit anfangen.Schade

This Hoover rug cleaner lives up to what everyone has said about it. I really liked seeing actual people tell their stories prior to my buying the cleaner. Hoover keep that up!!! But, equally as important was actually using the machine. It does the best cleaning job, that I have ever seen. It is also lighter than most, and still does that great job. Cleaning the rug on the steps cleans great and is easy as well. I have looked for years to find a product that answers all the boxes. To wrap it up here…. the price is also friendly too!!!

Yes, you need this!
If you’re a pet parent, you REALLY need this. It has so many features, it’s amazing. Getting a new carpet cleaner certainly wasn’t on my bingo card. However, we have dogs and a cat — you know the rest.
I got out the old carpet cleaner a couple of days ago, got everything ready, and … it wouldn’t work. So much for that. So I started looking at new ones. I read tons of reviews and watched lots of review videos. I clicked the “Add to Cart” button for this one. Here’s what I love about it.
1. It’s easy! You push it forward to wash and pull back to dry. The machine mixes the solution, puts it down in the forward movement and sucks it up when you pull it back. It has little LED messages for Wash and Dry. Very cool.
2. The dirty water container actually has a lid so you can empty it… like a bucket and get the inside clean. Gone are the days of trying to get the dirty water out of the badly positioned drain hole… and having to shift it back and forth to get the water out.
3. This was the only cleaner I saw that actually talked about a rinse cycle. What? I don’t take a shower and towel off the soap. Doesn’t everyone rinse?
4. The solution is in a separate container, so the clean water is ready for rinse when you are. I always rinse twice because — dogs and cats. You know…
5. The wand becomes a stain shooter! I had set-in stains that I thought were impossible to get out. With the stain shooter to pre-treat, they’re gone. OMG!!!
6. It has a “dry only” cycle built in. When you push the dry only button, it stops laying down water and just sucks up what’s there to make drying less time consuming.
7. This must have been designed by dog people. They fixed all the ugly things on regular carpet cleaners! Like…
8. The rollers, etc. come out to clean. This is just so awesome!!! I partially took it apart, but left the rollers inside. Even without taking them out, I got rid of the dog hair that had been picked up. And I have a clean machine for next time.
I really didn’t want to spend so much, but I’m glad I did. This one is a beast! Today I cleaned the great room and the TV room. (More to come next week — I’m totally out of gas right now.)
Here are a few tips to get you started:
1. Watch some videos before it comes. You’ll see how to put it together, use it, and take it apart to clean it. you’ll also see the magic of the stain wand. Well worth your time!
2. Order a bottle of solution. The trial sizes will get you going, but you really do need the full-size bottles.
3. Vacuum good before you clean. I vacuumed twice… and still picked up some dog hair. I know it’s impossible to vacuum first when there’s an accident. That’s the one exception. But if you plan to do more than spot cleaning, vacuum around it.
4. Empty the water outside if possible. If you must use a drain inside, use a strainer so you don’t clog the plumbing with pet hair. I put a strainer in the kitchen sink when I went to clean the parts as well. The roller cover had some doggy hair that I didn’t want to go down the drain.
5. Sanitize the sink when you’re done.
6. Check on the carpet to marvel at how good it looks.
7. Put up your doggy gates to keep the good boys & girls off the carpet until it’s dry.
Look at the others ones, and then buy this one. You’ll love it!

I live in an apartment with old carpet. I thought of hiring professionals to clean it but it costs around $230 each time. Due to allergies, I want the ability to keep my carpets clean which means I’d have to clean them more than once a year. Realized for the price of hiring someone for one clean, I might as well buy my own and after seeing the many great reviews for this one, I decided to go for it. Wow, did it ever exceed ALL of my expectations. Super easy to assemble, super easy to use. LOVE that the detergent goes in a separate compartment from the clean water so you DON’T WASTE PRODUCT! In separating the two, the MACHINE PERFECTLY MEASURES THE DETERGENT TO WATER RATIO which results in the ultimate carpet clean! I normally have to go over the carpets multiple times to get the level of clean I got in one shot with this Hoover – totally blew my mind. In addition, cleaning the machine afterwards was a DREAM! AND – the other thing that is not advertised that is SHEER GENIUS is that this thing comes with a RUBBER MAT FOR STORAGE after! This way, any liquid that comes out AFTER use goes on the rubber mat and not your floors! BRILLIANT!! The only issue I had when I received my order was that it was missing 2 tools. I contacted Amazon, and because they weren’t able to send me the missing tools separately, offered me the option of replacing the unit in its entirety or a discount on the item so that I can purchase the missing tools directly from Hoover. Overall both product and service are EXCELLENT! Can’t recommend enough!

No puedo decir suficiente para calificar este producto, es una auténtica maravilla, empezaré por lo NO importante, es muy bonita.
Cosas importantes:
AL LAVAR:
– Super fácil de usar, cuando la empujas lava, cuando la jalas seca, si quieres enjuagar nada más quitas el depósito de jabón y listo. Si solo quieres secar tiene un botón que cuando lo accionas evita que libere el agua con jabón.
– El cepillo para lavar manualmente se conecta muy fácilmente y quita de manera impresionante las manchas al tallar, tiene un gatillo para que tú liberes el agua con jabón a tu gusto y necesidad. Este cepillo es muy útil para esquinas pues la máquina no llega a esos lugares.
– Tiene un cable de 6 metros, lo cual para mí fue muy útil ya que tengo contactos por toda la casa. No tuve la necesidad de usar extensiones.
DESPUÉS DE LAVAR:
– Es fácil de limpiar ya que se le pueden quitar fácilmente varias piezas, la cubierta de los cepillos, los cepillos, el depósito para el agua limpia, el depósito para el agua sucia y el depósito para el shampoo, por lo tanto eso la hace fácil de limpiar y conservar.
-Los cepillos son potentes, limpian maravillosamente bien.
MUY IMPORTANTE: usar un buen shampoo es indispensable.

Limpia genial y se seca súper bien. Puedes volver a pisar el mismo día. Una persona escribió aquí una reseña súper completa. Yo la leí y por eso la compré. Y en efecto. Todo lo que dice es verdad. Yo la uso una vez al mes y se ven como nuevas todo el tiempo mis alfombras.
