Customer Hoover Steam vac Reviews
Great Hoover Steamvac
The hoover steamvac f5914 900 really cleans carpets well. On my worst carpet area, the cleaner did as well as a commercial carpet cleaner. I recommend the following to make it a successful cleaning:
1) I supplement the hot water with some boiling water to really get the temperature up. By the time the water hits the spray nozzle, it has really cooled off so make it hotter. Bissell uses a heater, but it can’t be that powerful without reducing motor power. Best to supplement.
2) Patience. Go slow and go over really bad areas. You will HAVE to pretreat and hand wash heavy stains, but so do the pros. Don’t expect a diamond out of coal. You still have to do the work.
3) Clean often. I have one carpet that I waited way too long and it just won’t come clean. The pros can’t and I can’t. BIG lesson learned there.
Have fun with this Hoover Steam vac . I can’t believe how much dirt there was in my “clean” areas, so it will be great to have this around to clean when I desire to. I saved more than the price of the cleaner this weekend.
Great hoover steamvac f5914 900 for the price!
We decided on buying a carpet cleaner after we hired a carpet cleaning service and they didn’t show. I researched several cleaners out there and tried some other ones that I knew some relatives had. This Hoover vacuum cleaners is hands down the best one I’ve seen. No other cleaner in the same price range cleans better. Actually, no other cleaner that’s twice this price cleans better either.
My mother has a Bissell and it cleans fairly good, but the canister that holds the clean and dirty water is a all-in-one deal which is too small to be productive with. We have frieze (shag) carpet in our home and it seemed to use a lot of water on a small area.
Fast forward to the present. The hoover steamvac f5914 900 took about 10 minutes to put together. It has two separate tanks for the clean water and dirty water. I believe the clean tanks holds nearly a gallon. I hear some people saying that the empty/fill cycle is getting off, but I find that if I fill the clean solution just below the fill mark solves that problem. It takes about two tanks per room which is great.
I haven’t had the leaking problem that has plagued some of the other buyers of this hoover steamvac f5914 900 , but I think if you follow the directions that solves that problem. I haven’t used the hand tools yet, but I plan to soon so I’ll edit this post.
We originally wanted to clean the carpet due to pet stains so I purchased the hoover steamvac f5914 pet solution, but it cleans about the same as the advanced cleaning sample Hoover supplies with the cleaner. I wanted to see how good the Hoover would clean the set in pet stains without the recommended pretreatment and it actually got out 90% of the spot. I feel that with pretreatment it would have totally came out, but I plan to just run over the same spot again later to finish it off(why get down and scrub if you don’t have to?).
I am completely satisfied with this purchase. If you are wasting your money on professional services you could be saving so much with this hoover steamvac f5914 and doing the job yourself. It’s no more difficult than vacuuming and it does a fantastic job on pet stains and heavy traffic areas.
