Hoover PowerDash Pet Compact Carpet Cleaner, Shampooer Machine, Lightweight, FH50700, Blue

Light weight and cleaned both a thick carpet and a thin one. The carpet dried in the same amount of time as a over $300.00 model.

I purchased this rug cleaner to clean up after my new puppy. The product is just amazing! It is easy to use and clean. It also pulls dirt out of the carpets with so much ease and the carpet dries up quickly!

Weve got white carpeting in our living/dining area and upstairs in the hallway and master bedroom. The carpet was not new when we bought the house, but had been cleaned, and looked great. We moved in with our three dogs and our two cats, and somehow, we havent figured out what caused it, the carpet began to get a bit dirty, especially in areas where our biggest dog (Zeus, an 85 pound teddy bear) prefers to sleep. Then, a few months ago, my elderly mother moved in with us, and she has two small dogs who decided to come along for the ride. One of those two dogs (Katie, a Feist dog who looks like a tiny deer more than anything else,) isnt housebroken. Is. Not. Housebroke. Not at all. Not even a little bit. She *was* housebroken at my moms house, before Mom moved in with us, but Katie is a shelter dog, and we dont know if she was abused or just severely neglected before the shelter got her, but timid doesnt even begin to describe this dog. Shes not afraid of *us* anymore, and gets along great with the other dogs, but fear is her steadfast companion, and for whatever reason, she has decided that one thing to be afraid of is the very idea of going outside without my mom. The people who owned this house before we did also had a small dog. I dont know how well housebroken that dog was, but, I used to work for a carpet cleaning company, and one thing I learned there is about wicking. What can happen is, lets say that your dog--or our Katie--pees on the carpet and happens to pee where some other dog once peed on the carpet too. Not only can Katie leave a stain, but, the moisture can actually cause the stain from the *old* pee to get wicked back up to the surface, just the same way that oil is wicked up in a lantern to burn by the .... well, by the wick. So apparently Katie is pretty good at finding old pee stains because very often, where she chooses to pee we not only get her new pee stain, but another stain as well, with brown edges. Nice, right? Our white carpet quickly became white, yellow, brown, and ugh, colors. And yes, in this case, ugh is a color. I was desperate. We cant afford new carpet and no one in their right mind would buy new carpet before the final dog was housebroken anyway, but if anyone had come over to visit with the carpet looking like this... okay, I was about to say I would have died of embarrassment but that would be overstating my degree of concern about what other people think by about a million degrees. Still, were pretty fond of this house (a mid century modern) and its looks, and we wouldnt want the carpet to be the thing people remembered the most about the house, especially not when theres a backyard with 5 dogs pooping in it for them to remember instead. (Flies. We have flies. Even though we scoop, we have flies.) Enter this little machine. For the price, I have to tell ya, I wasnt expecting *too* much. Then again, I was expecting *something* or I wouldnt have bought it. What I got was, in fact, a lot more than I was expecting, I can tell you that. I followed the quick start guide and put it together; all very simple. I filled the water tank with water and a little of the detergent that came with it, plugged the machine in, and fired it up, after first tempering my husband and mothers expectations by letting them know that it was possible that it wouldnt do anything except make the wicking problem even worse, and advising them that for that reason, I was going to test just a small area. Listen... well, no, just read. No wicking problem. New stains are gone. Old stains are gone. Does the carpet look brand new again? Well, no. But it looks as good as it does when we moved in here. The machine spits the water into the carpet, rub-a-dub-dubs it however much you want it to, and then when youre ready, it sucks the water back out again, and applies some heat to help start it on its way to getting dry again. Easy as can be. In fact, Im afraid to say this because we ARE talking about housework here but its actually kind of.... well.... fun. I dont SAY that about housework. But the thing is that its not housework I hate. In fact, I *love* housework when its not overly strenuous, doesnt make me sweat, and I can look at what Ive just done and really tell that I DID something, and this machine covers all those points. And for the price? Well. All I can say is that its one of the best purchases Ive ever made, and if you could see my buying-history, and thank god you cant, youd realize what a huge statement that is for me to say. There may be some carpet cleaning jobs it wouldnt be recommended for, but not any carpet cleaning jobs that *I* would ever do. Thats a fact. I love this thing. I love it so much Im going to name it. I just havent chosen the perfect name yet. Im thinking Slosh, though. Even though it doesnt. Slosh, that is. Oh yeah, emptying out the dirty water so that you can put in some nice clean water and clean more carpet is easy as can be, also. And be sure and vacuum first if you have pets. I didnt because I was in such a hurry to try this bad mofo out, and I was rewarded by having the machine spit out a couple of (quite clean!) hairballs while I was doing my test area. So yeah. Vacuum first. Buy this. This is the droid youre looking for.

This is a great, light weight steam cleaner. It came with a silicone drip mat to sit it on, and tools to clean out the brush or hose. It has handheld attachment too! Im very impressed and happy with this hardworking machine. It left my rugs looking lovely and refreshed.

This is the best pet stain cleaner. Very light weight, easy to assemble. Easy to use. Does the job quickly. I have had other cleaners that were heavy and awkward. I don’t use the stain cleaner that comes with it. It seems to leave a residue in the carpet. I only add Clear ammonia to the cleaning water and it does a perfect job. !!!!!

I own an elderly dog who now has bladder control issues I was looking for a carpet cleaner that could effectively clean up her spots. When I tell you this hoover carpet cleaner is the best carpet cleaner ive ever used I am not kidding. Not only is it incredibly strong super effective and very lightweight its affordable it costs under $100 when I purchased it it was 89. It did such a good job cleaning spots I actually have cleaned all of my carpets in my house with it and they have never looked this good. I have had carpet cleaning services come to the house I have rented rug doctors none of them lifted the dirt and grime out of my carpet like this small mighty machine. It does have a small water reservoir because its intended for spot cleaning but it can be used on all of your carpet it just takes more trips to the sink. I have never purchased a product that I like better from hoover this thing is incredible I highly highly recommend it.

I borrowed this a few times from my aunt and really liked it so I bought one for myself

Decided to give this a try to see if I can clean the stain on a very white long shaggy rug. My expectation wasn’t that high after reading other reviews about shaggy rug. OMG!! This works GREAT!! It has no problem cleaning a very long shaggy rug!! Very good investment!!

Its a really good machine for the money. The motor was more powerful then I expected after I read other reviews. The water reservoirs are small, but I expect that for the price. I have had it now 6 months and it has cleaned some really nasty carpets. I am very impressed. Only thing I wish it had was able to clear furniture as well. I received more than expected so I cant complain.

I have had this carpet cleaner for over 2 years and it has been fantastic. I have had to use it so many times to either clean messes that the kids or pets have made. This has actually done a very great job at cleaning my carpets this entire time. The one real issue I have with this model is the Dirty Water Container. There is only one port hole that you use to empty dirty water and try to clean it out. You cannot give this container any proper cleaning what so ever and that was something I really wish I knew about before I bought it. Not having been able to properly clean it out this entire time has given this thing a weird funk smell and I do not want to pay the $60 just to buy a new container that I will continue to have the same issue. I just upgraded to the SmartWash Model, that was just one sale, but honestly you can get the Advanced Model and it will work just a great as this one PLUS you can actually open the lid to the Dirty Water Container and can actually clean it out properly after each use. Other than that one issue, I have had no other issues with this. That cleaner was used to clean multiple rooms almost weekly and it was honestly still running strong.
