Hoover PowerDash Pet Compact Carpet Cleaner, Shampooer Machine, Lightweight, FH50700, Blue

well 1st easy to assemble,to take the nozzle cover off is very difficult for me.

This little carpet cleaner got up so much old pet hair from our carpets! I vacuumed before using and the amount of crap it pulled up is crazy. Very lightweight, easy to use, and easy to store.

This particular version of the Hoover line of carpet cleaners is truly a 5-star product because every aspect of it, from design to operation and maintenance, appears to have been successfully thought through and seemingly improved from what I read about earlier or less expensive models. This model is great for cleaning up small areas with pet messes or dirt. Its not meant to be a whole-house solution (like the Bissell Green Machine), but it does what it advertises. Its lightweight and easy to maneuver; it is easy to fill the cleaning tank with water and cleaning fluid; its super-easy to see how much cleaning solution is left because its made of clear plastic. Emptying the dirty water tank and removing the brush roll cover are not quite as graceful but work reasonably well. The model comes with really good accessories, including a brush cleaning tool and very helpfully, an attachment that enables the cleaning of stairs. Hoover has created very good, to-the-point YouTube videos explaining how to operate the cleaner, how to clean it, and also another video on advanced maintenance.

Easy assembly easy fill water/ cleaner bottle and easy empty dieting water empty process. Used one time one day after delivery and cleaned 2 bedroom light color carpers one long runner closet carpet one hallway runner carpet 2 small bathroom carpet mats and one medium living room center carpet, this required 3 full clean water bottles with cleaner but cleaning was exceptionally good with hoover cleaning liquid supplied with small bottle already all used up. Pet stains from one cat were removed 90 percent and a weekly clean with this machine will keep carpets rugs looking very good for a long time. Lightweight and easy to move around on carpets it really lifted a lot of dirty brown water . The best policy is to not over wet the carpets rugs and so greatly reduce drying time. Additional cleaning weekly will improve carpet appearance even more. Great price for a great little cleaner . Highly recommended for its cleaning ability at this time of writing.

We loved this cleaner. It fit our needs perfectly cleaning up after 3 cats, which if you know you know they like to use carpet for certain things. We have limited rugs in our house, but used this several times a month. Beat bending over and scrubbing, stored nicely in closet. However, it was hard to clean. The nozzles had build up and getting them out could have been easier. The brush roll area was accessible but not easy to wipe out, so disassembling and cleaning was the only route. Unfortunately, the motor bearing failed a short time later. It had been making a shrill noise for a while, and I guess it eventually let go. The motor end gets wet from water mist from the tank, and I would guess it gets into the bearing. This is understandable, but we would have liked it to last longer, 2.5 years seems short (purchased Nov 2020, died June 3 23)
