I’ve used this cleaner approximately 10 times, the hose broke within the first 5 or 6 uses. We ended up taping it and it worked well like that, now the machine won’t spray water. For the price, I’m very disappointed in how the product has held up. I believe I needed original proof of purchase which I unfortunately don't have as it was a gift, so I couldn’t claim it under warranty.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fill tank cap plunger seal missing!
on July 17, 2026
Posted by: 1blacklab
Purchased new and the solution tank cap is missing the plunger seal!
After filling, and turning it over, the solution just pours out because there is no seal to stop it.
Make a huge mess every time.
Thanks Hoover

Not impressed

I have owned this machine for quite some time. I don't use it as much as I would like due to the hose length being so short and the upholstery tool being so large. I would like to be able to clean the inside of my vehicle with it but the upholstery tool is too large to get into the spaces I need to clean the most.Also, it doesn't make cleaning furniture very easy again due to the awkward sized head and the short hose. It has been very frustrating.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love it so far!

Verified Purchase:Yes
This little thing has saved me with having two puppies, and it cleans carpet spots so much better than my standup shampooer. We’ll see how it holds up over time, but so far it’s been absolutely amazing.
I would recommend this to a friend!
