Pros: Bright light.Slightly wider than other Hoovers. Has six brushes and a long cord.
Cons: Failed to clean stains. Weak suction.

I’d been reading numerous short articles in newspapers and magazines about the contaminants and dirt accumulating unseen in my carpets. Pounds of dirt, dust mites, dander, and dust were accumulating and compounding deep within and beneath the carpet...

Pros: Six rotating brushes, great suction, upholstery attachment with rotating brushes
Cons: Price, Noisy

WHY I NEEDED A STEAM CLEANER

I ADMIT IT! I burned up the motor in my older model Bissell Steam Cleaner. I caught a string on the roller and before I knew it, there was smoke and then nothing. Big Oops!! When my husband came home...

Pros: Just like a vacuum, easy!!
Cons: Small tanks

I purchased this machine due to the fact that my mother and grandmother both purchased the Hoover Steam Vac Ultra. They are both hard sells, so I knew if they liked it, then I would love it, and I do.

When we went home for Christmas, my mother...

Pros: The Rotating Brushes Are Fab!
Cons: Momma Needs A New Job To Support The Cost Of This Steam Cleaner!

Preamble
I hate cleaning. The only times I ever clean are when a) I am forced to by the impending arrival of guests or b) I am stressed to the max (and cleaning makes me feel more in control - it's that organizing thing). Tis the...

Pros: Helps keep carpeting looking new.
Cons: After one year, does not extract dirty water as well.

The cat just threw up another hair ball, and the kid tipped a glass of grape drink on the carpet. Just another day being a parent. So how do you keep your carpets looking good and have children and pets? For my wife and I that meant renting a steam...

Pros: Convenient features; wider than most models; rotating brushes; easy to use
Cons: medium-size tanks and noise

Two active children and two attention-seeking puppies are enough to keep any parents busy with cleaning stains and spills all day long. If you have to be on your knees to clean these messes, some day, you will feel the pain. With Hoover SteamVac...

Pros: Easy to use, cleans as advertised
Cons: Heavier than a vacuum cleaner

The ads say that those little spinning brushes will really get your carpets clean. Well, for once an advertised claim is completely true. This beauty really works. Those brushes give it the extra edge to scrub out bad stains and pull out ages...

Pros: Easy to use, does an outstanding job, is light.
Cons: Is a little pricey, cleaning solution can get a little expensive

This product is one of the best things you can put your money into on the market today! I am usually so skeptical of things "working miracles" because you usually get them home and they DONT. However.....

I was in the market for a...

Pros: Easy assembly, long electrical cord, 10-ft hose
Cons: Lacks power and suction

I did my homework, read many reviews on this product and chose this steamcleaner as my replacement for my dead Bissell.

Now I feel like the odd (wo)man out as I really disliked this machine and ended up returning the product the very same day...

Pros: cleans great!
Cons: heavy

We bought this product because we live in an apartment complex and they put down a really cheap grade of carpet. We wanted to have the carpets steam cleaned and it was going to cost about $80 so we decided that we would go ahead and price them. We...

Pros: Great suction, easy to keep clean
Cons: Tall clean water resevoir, hose/attachments

Since others here have included a comprehensive feature review, I thought I'd go another way. Give ...

Pros: Super easy to use, does what it is suppose to do; get your carpets clean!
Cons: a bit pricey, but well worth the cost

Let me start off by saying WOW! This machine is really great. I grew up in a clean household and the "cleaning bug" runs through my veins. Usually we vacuum our carpets about three times a week. I always thought they were clean. But if I...

Pros: Sucks up everything
Cons: Waste water tank is hard to clean

With 4 cats and 2 kids, the carpet here started to look really bad. The carpeting here is less than a year old, but was beginning to look like it was ready for the dumpster. It was then I decided it was time to buy a steam cleaner. I went up to the local...

Pros: Does a decent job; is pretty easy to use; is cheaper than professional cleaning
Cons: Electrical cord is always in the way; tanks are small

I recently purchased this steam cleaner as an alternative to either renting a steam cleaner or having regular professional cleanings. I think that it does a decent job but has some features that make carpet cleaning somewhat frustrating.

It...

Pros: Cleaning was good. Cleans large path of carpet at once.
Cons: Still had to scrub by hand old “set-in” stains. Very heavy unit.

Background
We had a Bissell carpet shampoo unit for many years and needed a replacement. After reading e-opinions, I decided to go for the Hoover widepath unit over the Bissell. The brush action appeared to be better on the Hoover, and at the...
