I bought this item after doing a lot of research online and offline. Its a very good buy for that price. The positive things about this unit are;

1) Very good cleaning power. Good suction.
2) Easy to move around. The handling is good.
3) Seperate space for cleaning agent and water.
4) Very easy to clean. Almost everything is detachable including the brushes on the bottom.

The only negative thing I found about this unit is the noise level. Its very loud.
Great suction and a great job!

I just finished cleaning my whole house with this steam vac and I loved the results! I didn't follow the instructions exactly for cleaning because it used a lot of water and I was having to change it too often. However, I used vinager to clean with (very cheap solution to the shampoo and you don't have to rinse) and I loved the results! I got out some stains that the professional couldn't get out 3 months ago; plus, the vinager cleaned the machine as well as the carpets! The suction is great! My carpet and upholstery look and feel clean again. With three young children, that is very important!
OMG this Machine is Amazing

I purchased this machine last week. I have always owned Bissell's but after years of frustration with odd design (making it difficult to clean) and the various leaks, I decided to give the Hoover a chance. I had limited expectations but was pleasantly surprised to find that this machine got my white carpet back to white (it out performed the Rug Doctor as well). It is much easier to work with as the clean water and the holding tank are two pieces. The design of the detergent dispenser is such that leaks are unlikely. The two piece components make rinsing out the pieces very easy. I also used the upholstery cleaner attachment. It is a little awkward and wasn't able to get into the crevices around my stair railings, but did a good job overall.

The only thing that could improve on this machine would be the storage of the upholstery attachment on the back. The tool cady is made so it can be mounted on a wall or on the vacuum. This "freedom" means that it isn't tightly seated on the machine. I say mount in a closet and be done with it. A minor inconvenience to see my carpet looking good.
Great SteamVac

Just used this for the first time, and already I love it. The parts are not flimsy. The SteamVac does a great job at picking up dirt and various stains. I have not had a problem with it leaking, either.
Just like the Neighbors

We bought this after borrowing one from our neighbors about 5 times. Works just as good. For the price it is a great cleaner.

The carpet cleaner worked very well and while I hadn't really thought about being able to finish an area with clean water, it did make a difference!

Reviewer: Ellen B. Selip,
I purchased this machine one year ago. I love how it cleans and it is easy to use. I have 2 dogs and a cat and it is great whhen the dog has an accident on my beige rugs. the only problem whhich I will address with Hoover is that after a few uses one of the latches on the recovery tank broke in half. My husband was able to repair that with Crazy glue. this forces me to be extra careful when closing that particular latch. This model I have has the clean water and detergent tank attached to one another. It states the detergent tank is NOT to be detached or removed form its postion. I used it this past week and the detergent solution holder fell off. Now I have "jimmy-rigged" the solution on onto the clean water tank with heavy tape. It works, but the problem is that a piece of plastic broke off the bottom and it has not sit correctly onto the machine to dispense the detergent in the way it is supposed to. Other than these two problems I love the machine. I know i could purchase a replacement tank but I feel the machine is too knew for this to happen
Good Cleaner, but some design flaws.

I have given this machine 3 stars, because when it is working well, it is one of the best home extractor units out there! The machine has nice features, like the rinse feature. You can just rinse the carpets without shampoo. The parts that I see break frequently are the Shampoo tank itself, and the part the tank connects to on the base of the machine. I can't even tell you how many shampoo tanks we have sold for this machine. It is designed in a way that the normal consumer will break 6-10. Be carefull when reattaching the shampoo tank after refilling with water/shampoo.
Cleans great while it works...

I have owned this Hoover model series for almost 3 years. The machine has served me well cleaning up pretty much anything my 4 and 2 year old and dog could throw at it. A few months ago the brushes stopped spinning. I investigated a way to fix it myself and discovered that instead of a belt driving the brushes it is run by a turbine mechanism powered by the air suction of the machine. It is a neat idea but poorly executed. I took the turbine apart to see that one of the spinning gears was rusted and had seized, probably because the air intake is right next to where the water is dispensed onto the carpet. I looked at ordering the part to replace myself and found that a new turbine assembly is $60. The tank had started leaking on the unit as well, it had to varying degrees since I bought the machine, so I decided to cut my losses and go buy a new machine.

This time I bought a Bissell pro-heat. In comparison the Bissell and Hoover carpet cleaner seem to be on a par cleaning wise. However there are a few things I like about the Bissell over the Hoover it: was easier to assemble, has belt driven brushes, is quieter, uses a combo water/wastewater tank, and the accessory hose is built into the machine as opposed to having the plug the hose in on the Hoover which is great feature for spot scrubbing stubborn stains.

So as I said the Hoover served me well for 3 years, but when parts start breaking it is prohibitively expensive to repair.
The water tank does have a flaw

Reviewer: Pineapple Shagette, Los Angeles, CA
I also bought mine a few years ago and the tank started to leak around the water bib at the bottom. I took it to a repair shop and they gave me a different tank they had repaired (same exact issue the plastic around the bib had gone bad). Seems to me that this is a faw in the manufacturing, as after inspection, the plastic around the bib is a lot thinner than the rest of the tank and thus after a few years of use it gives way and you won't notice until the water starts to rush out of the tank. I now need to buy a new water resevoir at the heafty price of $50! Mind you, it's cheaper then buying a new machine but still, it's deifnately again a manufacturing flaw/issue. Who knows maybe they build them that way to force you to have to buy another tank?? I do love the machine other than this issue, it works really well.
