Better then expected

After buying and returning 3 other carpet cleaners. I finally found a good one with Hoover! The power scrub xl does very well at removing stubborn carpet stains to cleaning up after a pet!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had this for a little over a year with three pets at home, and it definitely did the job. However, considering the brand and price, I’m disappointed and very unhappy that the clean water tank has a common issue with the spring at the bottom coming loose. After research, I found I’m not the only one experiencing this problem. Furthermore, the replacement cost is about a third of what a new carpet cleaner costs, which leaves a very sour taste in my mouth. I hope this reviews helps people when looking to purchase this carpet cleaner or this issue is resolved with an updated model.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Does a great job

I bought my Carpet cleaner a couple of years ago. It still works great and I love it. It will collect any cat hair I missed when I vacuumed. The machine will collect in the brushes all though the bottom. I don't like cleaning out all that hair by hand but it gets all the loose hair. I never give 5 stars unless the product is exceptionally great and this one was close.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this machine used it for the first time and the machine leaked the remaining water all over my Harwood floors. I bought a carpet cleaner and not a hardwood floor cleaner.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
