Hoover Platinum Carpet Cleaner with MaxExtract Technology Review

August 30, 2010 BY

The improved Hoover Carpet cleaner F8100900 removes more dirt from carpet than any other leading carpet brand. It is supported by MaxExtract technology and includes a powerful 12 amp motor. It provides a computer-controlled system with carpet or rug settings for a professional-looking clean without the guesswork. When you use it, you just simply press a button and turn the dial to start the cleaning cycle. Its SpinScrub brushes can do 360 degree dirt removal. After cleaning the carpet, the machine can remove dirt water with less soap residue left behind. Finally, it applies high velocity suction to remove dirty water while applying forced heat to speed up dry time. It has a Best-In-Class six year warranty.

Most customers are delighted with the cleaner F8100900; it is one model that keeps getting favorable reviews from industry experts and customers alike. A lot of buyers think it has excellent cleaning abilities.

As for the cons, reviewers write that the carpet cleaner is too bulky and they worry that the plastic parts may break easily. Also, they think the price is expensive. But considering it comes with a limited six year warranty broken parts should not really be a problem. At the same time, replacing a carpet early due to stains or premature wear is even more expensive. So if you’re going to go through the trouble of cleaning your carpet, it pays in the long run to do it right.

Bissell ProHeat 2X CleanShot Upright Deep Cleaner Review

August 30, 2010 BY

The Bissell ProHeat 2X Cleanshot Upright Deep Cleaner-9500 has three main parts, the cleaning system, the dual brushes and heating system. Using this power of heat, brushes, and cleaning formula together, this home cleaning system removes deep-down dirt for a maximum clean. The water-heating and hot-air system contributes to its powerful function. You can choose to set the water up to 25 degrees hotter for maximum results or turn it to a no-heat option for cleaning delicate wool or oriental rugs. For day to day use you should be happy with the middle setting. The Bissell ProHeat can mix hot water and cold water automatically. When it gets down to business, it sprays a concentrated stream of cleaning solution, penetrating the stain and allowing for better cleaning focus.

Customers have mixed feelings on the 2X Cleaner-9500. Some are satisfied with this cleaner, for it is easy to assemble, easy to fill, easy to empty and easy to use. For those who highly recommend it, they think it works very well at cleaning carpets. They emphasize it works very well at cleaning stairs. Those who weren’t so happy explain that the build quality is not great, and it doesn’t last for a long time. But the Bissell ProHeat is a good choice if you want to buy a cleaner at a low price. You just need to remember to clean it after each use and don’t leave it sitting in a garage for a year unused.

Hoover SteamVac Dual V Widepath Carpet Cleaner Review

August 26, 2010 BY

A carpet cleaner designed to make your cleaning difficulties goes away, the Hoover SteamVac is geared up with a powerful 12 amp motor. Its wide path cleans carpets by applying cleaning solvent and washes the dirt and solvent off with hot tap water.
The cleaner’s Dual V technology and patented Spin Scrub help provide unequalled cleaning and brushes meticulously loosen the dirt and clean all the fibers in the carpet.

The Hoover SteamVac is capable of variety of tasks. For example it has a gentle scrub mode, and provides tools like an 8-foot hose and powered handheld tools for upholstery and stairs etc, making it a versatile choice. A heat feature allows you to heat the floor directly. It is designed with impressive wide dimensions but is only 34 pounds in weight, and comes with a one year limited warranty.

Most reviewers found the Hoover’s wide path to help them in their homes by affording maximum cleaning efficiency, no detergent requirement and a high work power – all at a reasonable price and in a user friendly way. The SteamVac is not perfect though – other reviewers criticized the machine’s failing and stuck brushes, potential water leakage, broken spray mechanisms, difficulty in mounting the tank, lack of steam production, and lack of a cord reel.
