Having tried a few carpet cleaners in the past, the SmartWash cleaner the best hands down! Learning to use it was pretty intuitive. I also felt that it was made with ergonomics in mind, and my muscles and joints are thankful :) It is a great cleaning machine - especially on the spots, there was a noticeable difference: they were gone! I do pretreat the stains and that helps as well! I would definitely recommend this cleaner to my friends and anyone who is looking for an effective product!

I brought this machine about a month ago, my husband and I just used it this week to clean. It is wonderful, it got up all the old stubborn stains from the grand childrens spills. And there were many, I wish I had thought to take pictures before because it was horrible.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cleaned a rug that I've had for about 10 yrs and thought about throwing it away. It looks and feels brand new. I purchased this thinking it would be average but it's way better than my expectations. I would definitely recommend.

Bought this product in hopes to really clean my carpets without paying too much. Well it does. I have used it to clean my kitchen which has many stains from pets and kids, along with bedrooms and stairs. They haven't looked this good in a long time. Thank you

I have only used this one time so far but could not believe how easy it was and how nice it made my carpets. I have 2 dogs and one thought the carpet was the grass for a very long time. Easy to clean afterwards because everything comes apart easily and you can wipe it all down. Would HIGHLY recommend this for anyone - with or without pets.

I was a little skeptical about trying the Hoover Smartwash Pet Carpet Cleaner because I wondered how it could actually leave your carpet dry. It does. But I also wanted to try it because it seemed so simple to just put in the cleaner and water .No measuring. Also I had another carpet cleaner that was so heavy and bulky I could not use it and the carpet was left wet and to dryin a couple of days. This machine is light annd easy to use and what canI say? I love it.

I own three dogs. Two of them are elderly at this point, and one of two elder dogs had IBS for a couple months over the summer. This carpet cleaner brought our rooms back. The dog is back now too. We live in happy land. This solution to our dirty carpets was vastly better than bringing in a professional cleaning crew.

I have used this cleaner on one carpet to date and am very pleased with the results. I found that I had to reduce the amount of the cleaning solution as I have soft water in my home . It took a few times of running the cleaner with just plain water to remove the soapy remains in the carpet. I diluted the solution with water and then it was much better. I also found that by going slower when shampooing and rinsing it did a better job. Results are great.

I have already used my cleaner, and it works so well! I have 2 dogs & during the 4th of July with the fireworks, my dogs got so worked up they were vomiting. I cleaned the spots by hand, but it wouldn't come totally clean. With this machine, I was able to pretreat the area and then clean the area with the machine and it came right out! This carpet cleaner is a must have if you have pets!

So far has worked great! I have a wet-mouthed Dane that gets his slobber EVERYWHERE! It's been built up on the arms of the furniture for a few years, hidden by blankets. They are like new, again. Carpets look great! Lots of water changes and cleaning the parts with hair buildup causing it to stop working. The plastic parts seem a little flimsy. I'm worried about the longevity of it, but fingers crossed.
