Hoover F5914-900 SteamVac with Clean Surge
This powerful home steam vacuum saves you the expense and hassle of having to rent a steam cleaner and keeps rugs, upholstery, and bare floors (other than hardwoods) looking like new. The powerful 12-amp motor combined with five spinning brushes that operate at either high or low speed lift the usual dirt and grime out of carpets. By pulling on the trigger in the comfortable upright handle, this deep cleaner releases the included carpet/upholstery cleaner and hot tap water. For more stubborn stains or for high-traffic areas, this SteamVac also has a Clean Surge feature, which sends an extra blast of cleaning solution into the stain by simply pressing a button on the handle. When cleaning is complete, release the trigger and the SteamVac forces hot air into the cleaning path so you can do a few dry strokes over the stain. This deep cleaner has two separate water tanks to keep clean water apart from dirty water. The top tank holds the detergent and 1 gallon of hot water and automatically mixes the two so you don’t need to get your hands wet. The lower tank holds the dirty solution picked up from the carpet and unlatches to easily pour out into a sink without spilling.
For cleaning stairs or upholstery, this deep cleaner has a long 8-foot hose and a special stair/upholstery nozzle that scrubs out spots. Other attachments include a bare floor nozzle and a powered hand tool that is also ideal for upholstery or small carpet areas. All tools are mounted on the front of the vac in a handy case. Other features of this deep cleaner include a brush indicator, which informs you that the brushes are spinning; an on/off foot pedal; a handle release pedal; and a 27-inch wraparound cord. The Hoover SteamVac is covered by a full one-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Well worth the price / Report June 26, 2006
Love this steam cleaner. I have a small animal and this is required for maintaining my home. The suction after applying the steam is unbelievable. It replaces another steam cleaner that I had had about 6 years and I cannot believe I tolerated anything but the clean power of this machine. I am very happy I purchased this product.
Wow! / Report June 26, 2006
This is a great cleaner! I've had two other steam cleaners and this one is far superior to either of them. It's easy to use, and easy to clean up for storage afterward. It also leaves the carpet drier than any other I've ever used (including those you rent). I would definitely recommend this steamvac to anyone with a busy family!
Great Product / Report June 24, 2006
First off READ THE INTRUCTIONS!!! I've read several complaints about leaking, if you would of read the instructions you would not of had that problem.
We have three cats and I'm extremely anal about keeping the carpet clean, hard thing to do with three cats right?
It kept fairly clean most of the time but over the year it had it's wear and tear, so I was about hire a professional, but my wife came home and mentioned someone was raving about the steamvac, bought it that day and made a huge difference. And this is coming from an anal person that notices everything. Get it, enjoy it, but don't forget to read the instructions =)
worth every penny / Report June 23, 2006
I had used the dirt devil carpet extractor for years until the water tank cracked and I decided maybe it was time to just get a new carpet shampooer. I thought the Dirt Devil did a decent enough job for the price, until I decided to try this one(which costs about the same when on sale) to see how it worked, and let me tell you - there is no comparison. The Hoover works much better - lifting and cleaning matted down carpet that the dirt devil couldn't touch. I had been using the dirt devil carpet extractor regularly for the past 5 years, but my carpets were still looking old and worn - the dirt devil just doesn't do a very good job of getting into the fibers, or of sucking all the water out afterwards. After using this only 2 times, my 10 year old carpets look almost like new again. A must have for everyone that wants beautiful carpet!
Sure worth the money / Report June 19, 2006
I was all set to buy a new Hoover Steam Vac with Dual V technology until I read all the negative comments here. So, I went to my local vacuum shop and talked to them. They also stopped carrying that particular model. They recommended one of the original models. I had already purchased 2 of those in the past and wore them both out. I was very disappointed that the new models were not reliable. So I purchased a new "old" model. This one has heated cleaning that my other 2 did not. Let me tell you it sure makes a difference. I was considering also buying a Bissell 2x with the 2 rows of beater bars as well as a Rug Doctor. The local vacuum shop carries those as well. A friend let me borrow her Bissell. I brought it home and cleaned 1 small room. I didnt like the results or the tank in a tank system they use. Just to be curious I pulled out my old Hoover and cleaned the carpet a second time. I was amazed at the dirt it picked up that the Bissell left behind. The carpet was also drier to the touch and looked noticably cleaner. Then I went and rented a Rug Doctor. It was heavy and awkard to use. It did pick up more dirt than the Hoover and Bissell, but it used about a gallon and half of water for a small 10 x 10 room and didnt suck nearly that much up. Again, I pulled out the old Hoover and it sucked up water the Rug Doctor left behind. So all told I went out and bought this model of Hoover. I really like it. The carpet is much drier and I know its much cleaner than when I used the Bissell. It does seem to dry the carpet faster than my old Hoover without the heater. The bucket is not as convenient as my old Hoover. The old one had a nice handle. This particular model does not. Hoover please take notice! Save yourself all this time and effort and dont buy the expensive Rug Doctor or the Bissell. This Hoover does an excellent job. I only rated it 4 stars due to the handle on the bucket. Other than that its perfect.
