Hoover Steamvac Carpet Cleaner Review
Hoover SteamVac Carpet Cleaner with Clean Surge, F5914-900
This powerful home steam carpet cleaner saves you the expense and hassle of having to rent a steam cleaner to keep rugs, upholstery, and bare floors (other than hardwoods) looking like new.
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.
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.

The Steamvac also works on linoleum! Granted, you may not wish to use it as you primary method for washing floors, but it’s great for a periodic steam cleaning. You have the option to turn the rotation of the brushes off if you’re concerned about them on your floors. The cleaning solution also does a fantastic job and leaves the linoleum gleaming and shiny.
If you have carpet, and especially if you have an indoor pet, you’ll get lots of use and value out of the SteamVac.
Here’s what one of the owners had to say about the Hoover Steamvac carpet cleaner…
I purchased this off Amazon about 6 months ago and to be honest wasn’t expecting anything over the edge at this price. Wow, was I surprized and I cannot express enough how easy this thing is to use.
It WORKS wonderfully!! I was so surprised when it cleaned up old coffee stains, heavy traffic areas, and pesky pet stains. Now I pull this out weekly and my home always looks like it was professionally cleaned in no time at all. (Livin It)

As always, Hoover is top-of-the-line. This version cleans better than the previous models and the buttons and foot release lever are more accessible. The only suggestion that could be made is the waste tank handle, which could be improved with the next model. When one goes to lift the tank, it tilts forward, with nothing holding the lid on. But this has no bearing on performance, which is outstanding. Splurge on the model! It’s worth every penny.

Here’s what one of the owners had to say about the Bissell proheat 2x upright deep cleaner…
My carpet looks wonderful. I’m convinced that if I spent more time on it, especially pre-treating, it would look even more wonderful, but who has unlimited time? Overall the Bissell 9500 was easy to use, a pleasure really. It’s not too heavy for me and I’m quite small. All the plastic on it seems very thick and durable, and it’s even kind of pretty–an amazing machine.
