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 reviewed this under Bells10 about a month ago and wanted to add that with great trepidation I decided to clean my handmade wool and silk blend carpets. I did them on the garage floor. They are absolutely clean and beautiful. No damage occurred. It does take several days to dry depending on the density of fibers. I even did the fringe. The brushes are soft enough to not cause any harm.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is amazing, with the hoover cleaner it was pulling chocolate milk colored dirt out of our carpets, i like that it also has a dry only function so you can go over the floor a few times and completely dry the area. "#sweepstakes

while this carpet cleaner is exceptionally well at cleaning and doing the job it's suppose to their is 1 small defect in the machine theirs a seal on the bottom release where you clean the bristles at it continues to fall off to the point you have to really pay attention to it otherwise you will end up losing the piece as I did other than that it's a phenomenal product all the way around that's why I didn't give it the full 5 stars

This carpet cleaner is one of the best around. It worked on deep set in stains that never came out with my old rug cleaner. It was lighter to push and is easy to clean. Would recommend this product to anyone that asked about carpet cleaners. This product is a god sent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My old one was finally falling apart after 10 years so I just picked this one up. Used it once so far but it worked great. Cleaning the dog fur out afterwards was very easy as my old one was terrible to clean out after each use. Hopefully this one lasts 10 years as well!

I bought this shampooer about 2 weeks ago. The weekend after I bought it I shampooed my whole upstairs in my house, 3 bedrooms and living room. I have 3 dogs so I had some set in stain left by my older Hoover with the spin brushes. The shampooer not only got out the set in stains but fluffed my older carpet. My carpet is softer than when I moved in. I love this thing. Everyone with pets needs one. You won't be disappointed.

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 bought this product in the spring. I have used it a few times since. The function of the main cleaner works great. However, the reason I spent extra to purchase this one instead of the regular Smartwash carpet cleaner was for the Spot Chaser pretreat wand. I had a small animal that made frequent small stains. The wand has disappointed me. The pretreat solution comes out in a stream, not in a spray pattern, so It takes a lot to cover a small stain. I can get much better coverage just using a spray bottle. It wasn't worth the extra money. I recommend getting the regular SmartWash cleaner.

This is the best Carpet Cleaner I've ever used. I'm 70 years old and was rather concerned about being able to put it together and run it easily. Well, EASY is the word!!! All the parts are well executed so that you can use, disassemble and clean very easily. I did three rooms in less than an hour and they look wonderful!!!! Two of my friends have already purchased one after hearing me rave over it.
