Hoover F5914-900 SteamVac with Clean Surge
Hoover F5914-900 SteamVac with Clean Surge, This powerful home steam vacuum saves you the expense and hassle of having to rent a steam cleaner and keeps rugs, upholstery, and bare floors (other than hardwoods) looking like new. The powerful 12-amp motor combined with five spinning brushes that operate at either high or low speed lift the usual dirt and grime out of carpets. By pulling on the trigger in the comfortable upright handle, this deep cleaner releases the included carpet/upholstery cleaner and hot tap water. 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. This deep cleaner has two separate water tanks to keep clean water apart from dirty water. The top tank holds the detergent and 1 gallon of hot water and automatically mixes the two so you don’
I need to get your hands wet. The lower tank holds the dirty solution picked up from the carpet and unlatches to easily pour out into a sink without spilling. For cleaning stairs or upholstery, this deep cleaner has a long 8-foot hose and a special stair/upholstery nozzle that scrubs out spots. 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.

Hoover F5914-900 SteamVac with Clean Surge Reviews
The F5914 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. 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.
Love it! I was reluctant to purchase any carpet cleaner, because of all the complaints I’ve heard about: hard to assemble, heavy, no suction, breaking, or difficult to change dirty and clean water. First when my Hoover arrived I decided to time how long it took me to assemble. In 30 minutes I dragged the box from the porch to the kitchen, took everything out of the box, assembled it according to clear instructions, and read about how to use it. The dirty and clean water compartments are a snap to remove and replace. IT IS NOT HEAVY. I’m a 5′5″ female and I push it around with no problem. Geez people, get off the couch? I have used the cleaner on both thick wool pile and on berber carpeting in my home. It worked equally well on both. I’ve also dragged it to work and cleaned my downright gross office carpet. I have one cat that throws up hairballs and just last week an antibiotic didn’t agree with my other cat and she vomited everywhere. I cleaned up the surface stuff and the cleaner zipped it all right up. Anyone who has cleaned up vomit can appreciate how much time this save me, and the cleaner did a much better job than manual cleaning could hope to. I have a few practical suggestions. Do follow instructions and vacumm first. Do a couple extra drying steps, and turn on ceiling fans if you have them. You will be rewarded with dry carpets by the end of the day. Also, try spraying bad spots with some water before cleaning (water is cheap). I have also used a precleaner for particularly stubborn stains. So far no stains have defeated me. Another product I have had for a couple years and recommend is the Bissell Little Green Proheat with turbobrush. Great for little cleanups and the car. One last comment I can’t resist. One review mentions excess water ruining wood floors. The instruction manual and the advertisement information clearly says it is NOT to be used on wood floors. I would expect someone with a PhD to have better reading comprehension. Sorry if I sound irritated, but, now that I have my cleaner, I am annoyed that negative reviews kept me from buying it sooner.
