[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to get this product. The vacuum was rated very highly by customers. I am very disappointed with the purchase. I used the Crosswave once and it was clogged. I removed unclogged the vaccuum, washed the brush and tried again. The suction is not particularly strong, and it leaves streaks of dirty water across the kitchen floor even if I start with a freshly cleaned vacuum and roller. The Shark Navigator and a steam mop are now my preferences for vacuuming and washing hardwood.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Amazing! Worth every penny

This thing AMAZING! I've been nursing my 15 yr old Hoover Floor Mate. I should have purchased this years ago. It drives like a dream. You don't even hardly have to do anything except push a floor button and steer. So light and great cleaning.
Pros: Easy to use, Good for Deep Cleaning, Good for Light Cleaning, Helpful Attachments, Long Run Time, Multi-Surface Usage
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were looking for a cleaner that would be gentle for berber loop carpeting. This cleaned the carpet and didn't pull or mess the texture of the carpet. Cleaned very well. It was also used on vinyl flooring in the kitchen and cleaned nicely.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I saw the reviews on streaking and I haven't noticed that. I use it on tile and laminate. I press the fluid trigger on forward passes and release on backward passes and it works well. Much better than a standard mop.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my CrossWave!!! My whole house is hard wood and i dreaded sweeping and then mopping. I also have a dog so inevitably I would always end up with streaks of his hair from the mop. With my CrossWave it is a one and done with nothing left behind!!! I am a very frugal person and hate spending money on just about anything but the CrossWave is worth every penny if you have a lot of hardwood flooring in your home. #sweepstakes

Brush roller mechanism stopped working

Purchased this product 18 months ago. Used it every two weeks over approx 1000sq feet of hardwood flooring. Occasionally, cleaned small rugs. Today, mechanism that turns brush roller stopped working. I can move the gear manually but when plugged in, roller does not move. Will not purchase this product again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A bit disappointed in this product. It doesn't really seem to clean the hardwood floors nor the area rug. We have normal amount of dirt from an 18 month old (milk and juice spills, etc) and a dog (muddy paws sometimes) and I didn't feel that my floors were any cleaner than vacuuming and using a mop with disposal pad. Very disappointed I paid so much money.
