junk junk junk i owned 2 of them and would never buy other one again the spinning heads dont do shit unlike the bissel with has brushes like a vacum cleaner which work a hell of alot better bissel the way to geting dirt from rug !!!
I just used mine for the first time and I thought it did a good job. the Hoover is replacing a Bissel which quit working after many years of good work. I decided to go with the Hoover because of the dual tank system that was the one thing I didnt like about the Bissel the single tank was messy to clean after using it. the Hoover is much easier to clean afterward and from what I can tell does just as good as the Bissel did.For what I paid I'm happy.
Areas that have a lot of sand is said to wear out the carpet with the sand settling down grinding the base that holds the pile or carpet. I'm not a fan of shag carpets myself. I prefer a commercial grade instead.
@aleon1018 Don't buy the Hoover cleaner. Go to Home Depot or Lowes and get the the Zep brand. You'll get lot more for the price and it's industrial strength. Also buy Resolve to soak the stains and spots also.
According to the instructions: you can lift off the hose assembly . !!!! which makes it less clumsy while using it for floors and carpets.. I see these dragging in this video and they have a particular way of attaching it as well.
I bought the older model used at Goodwill for $13.60 ( 50% off electrical that day) which is now basically just for carpets, because I don't have the hard floor attachment? Turned out, the tanks on the older ones are defective and crack around the bottom valve. I ordered a new replacement 'upgraded fill tank' for $60.00 The Bissell heats the water and these Hoovers apparently just use hot tap water. I checked the new 'cheaper' ones at Walmart and they remind me of a cheap plastic toy.
Well, I have the older model that had the defective tank and I know the machine did work with the exception of the leaking tank I've now replaced. Bringing the price to $75.00 vs a new one around $250.00? I don't see much Hoover shampoo available though and I just bought the cheaper one to start out with. Some are around $20.00 for the larger sized bottle. Which shampoo do you use?
I just used mine to do a small area as a test. The area goes from the garage, across my dining room to the kitchen. It pulled some serious dirt out of the carpet. It just made me see how much work I have to do when I actually have to clean the carpets in this whole house. :-( This cleaner also made the carpet feel soft to the touch after 4 years of traffic and settled dirt and stains. I give it 5 thumbs up!!!!
I just purchased one of these. I'm scared to see what the water will look like when I get started on my carpets. It's been 4 years since i've fulling shampood them.
This is not a steam vac.

@aleon1018 All I can say is that this device works. Check the reviews on Amazon also. This is why I bought one.

I love my Dual V as well! Here is a great hint for Pet Stains! Just a few drops of bleach in solution tank will disinfect the carpet!
