OK..the in-laws gave this to my family which includes my daughter and son-in-law, my youngest son and me. PLUS - Two dogs, FOUR BIRDS and lots of friends. Whoever dreamed that a light colored carpet belonged in a busy family house was crazy!
When I use this steam cleaner, I vacuum thoroughly first. This is a must if you have pets. The water mixes automatically with the cleaning solution and stays warm while you clean. We used the Hoover cleaning solution the first few times but since then, we have found other cleaners that work just as well for a lot less.
There are two tanks for keeping fresh and dirty fluids separate. It rinses and does floors as well as carpets. There are attachments for cleaning upholstery and a scrub brush I use for pre treating spots. A squeegee for floors. Edge cleaning too.
There's a spinning brush on the unit that helps loosen dirt. It sucks up enough that the carpet is dry enough to walk on within an hour. I usually go over it several times after the final rinse just to be sure it dries sufficiently. Easy to use. A little bulky and messy to clean up, but does a good cleaning job on the carpet.
Somebody told me a trick that we tried the last time we cleaned; we pour the dirty solution into the cracks on the front walkway. It keeps the weeds away!
We keep it stored in the shed out back. Out of sight, out of mind. It's a good machine!
