Music To Listen To While Cleaning

Do you conjure up your inner Tom Cruise from the movie Risky Business, decked out in your underwear, donning the vacuum cleaner and singing “Ol’ Time Rock and Roll?” Or, maybe it’s Mrs. Doubtfire cleaning in drag and singing, “Dude Looks Like a Lady” by Aerosmith that puts you in the cleaning mood.

5 Stars it works!
I have six cats. This is the first product to help us really clean our funiture,clothes and bedding! My wife and I were so pleased with this product we brought another one three weeks after the first. WE are happy customers, thanks you.

5 Stars I really love this product!
This is a lightweight and strong little vacuum. It holds a charge for a long time between uses. It is exactly what I was looking for and takes up no space at all.Shark SV736K 15.6-Volt Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner with Motorized Brush, Colors Vary

5 Stars This shark eats dirt
We use this vac intermittently for a few minutes at a time. So far working very well still, on its first overnight charge. We intend to follow manufacturer’s instructions on battery preservation; will try to follow up in 6 months with report on battery life, if Amazon allows.

3 Stars Shark Handheld
This product is a great improvement over the older low voltage handheld vacuum it replaces. It is a slight bit heavier but is easy to use and a charge lasts a fairly long time. The operating manual indicates that there is a wall bracket available for the unit; two unanswered e-mails and two phone calls were necessary to find out that the wall mount is no longer made. Too bad, it take up too much room on the shelf and storing the charger is a pain. That fact would have influenced my buying decision.

4 Stars Shark vacuum
Bought the Shark for my wife as a Mother’s Day present. For some reason, I thought I was going to be able to mount the unit in the garage. Guess what? There is no cradle or hardware to gang it on a wall. I have no idea where my wife put it. It is not as handy for both of us. I do see it charging once in awhile and she says she loves it. I think it is in the guest room dresser. Oh well!

3 Stars Not as good as the SteamVac Ultra
Having tried both detergents, we think the SteamVac Ultra is a much better product (even on pet stains) than this product.

5 Stars Watch out Pups, The Cleaner is here
We bought this product to clean the carpeting stains left by the previous owners. Our pets are naturally perfect and would not even think of soiling the carpet. In whose dreams was that? Regardless, the old stains were really embedded and even when the professionals cleaned the carpet before we took possession the stains did not fully leave. But this Hoover Detergent did the job and did it well. Amazement would be a good word to describe our surprise when we saw those stains leave. Moreover, those stains left without bleach. Bleach would have taken them up, probably, but who needs to have a big pink spot instead of the rose colored carpeting? Great stuff and works well for us. Would buy again.

5 Stars As good as new…
Ten months ago we bought $7000 of new carpeting. Two months ago we got two new puppies and one new shelter dog, in addition to our other three dogs. Unexpected life issues came up that prevented us from really keeping an eye on our new babies at first… so needless to say, our new carpet took a huge, devastating hit. On top of all that, we live in a rural mountain community and the amount of dust and dirt and mud that blows in and/or gets tracked in is astounding, no matter how careful we try to be.

A few weeks ago, I used Nature’s Miracle to scrub and de-odorize the carpet in spots, and it did a decent job. But what a lot of work. On hands and knees with a soft scrub brush… roll after roll of paper towels to soak up excess… and then allowing a saturated carpet to dry naturally for up to two weeks (per instructions). Whoa — not a practical solution for me. So my Mom’s Day gift to myself was the Hoover F7412-900 SteamVac Dual V Widepath Carpet Cleaner with the Hoover Pet Formula Detergent. O.M.G. My carpet looks and smells absolutely brand new. Stains that I thought might be in the carpet permanently all came out. I’m really shocked. I didn’t expect such a great result. I washed twice and rinsed twice (minimum), with plenty of dry passes in-between. I also allowed a few nasty spots to stay wet for 30 mins before rinsing and drying… and I think that helped a lot.

I love the light clean smell of the Pet Formula… it’s not overpowering by any means (and I used a lot). So in the end, I really don’t know how much of my success was due to the carpet cleaner itself (the Hoover SteamVac) or the detergent (the Hoover Pet Formula), but the two combined saved our carpet. I know I sound like a cheesy infomercial for Hoover now, but I can’t help it. My husband and I are thrilled!

1 Star Caution for Allergies: it has a perfume scent
I thought this would have been a good choice because it said it removed “allergens”. It also says on the bottle “removes allergens”. This is ridiculous! Many people with allergies have reactions to perfumes and scents. Yes, it’s a lovely fragrance, but that’s not the point. I do not dare use this stuff, filling my rooms with the synthetic smell for who-knows-how-long. This is the type of thing that can give me headaches for weeks!

I tried to find ingredients listed on the bottle before opening it but there was no list, just that phrase “removes allergens”. So I risked opening the seal to sniff it, and lost that gamble. I am very disappointed. Why would they perfume an anti-allergen product? Well, I should have read a few more reviews before the purchase. Now I have a huge bottle of useless-to-me shampoo.

I am back online searching for the key words “hypo-allergenic” and “unscented”. I will try for a refund, but not sure what response I’ll have due to open container. I feel the packaging/info is misleading to people with allergies. Cat and dog dander are not the only allergens!

4 Stars pet formula
works fine… i wouldn’t say it is any better than any other cleaning formula but gets the job done.

3 Stars WARNING, MISSING PARTS
This vacuum works much better than the one I was using before — which was a bagged vacuum from the 80’s. I am impressed that I got half a can of fuzz from about 100 sqft of carpet in my room!

I am quite disappointed though, because the package did not include 4 screws which you need to screw the handle onto the body of the vacuum (I searched everywhere!). The handle sort of clips on, but without the screws, the handle slides out about every 5 minutes of use. I am going to have to find my own to secure the parts together.

So, a WARNING, Amazon may be selling seconds, or packages which Hoover knows are not complete.

4 Stars Hoover U5786900
We had just gotten our carpets cleaned professionally and wanted a new vacuum to keep it looking new. So, the carpet had just been vacuumed with our old vacuum and steam cleaned by a professional. Once it dried, we wanted to try the new Hoover on it just to see how it works. We ended up vacuuming the whole house again because it was still pulling things up. I was seriously impressed. Time will tell how the suction holds up. Emptying the container is a little cumbersome but we are very happy about everything else related to the Hoover.

4 Stars Love it!
I love my new Hoover. I was about to spend the money on a Dyson, and I’m glad I didn’t. The suction is awesome and the double filter system rocks! It’s self driven so it’s really easy to maneuver. It’s a really sleek design and I like that it’s not some flashy yellow color. I’m only giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because I’ve only owned 2 vacuums in my life, therefore I don’t really have anything to compare it to. All in all, I love it and it was worth every penny.

5 Stars really good
I am owmer the carpet cleaning company and this vacuum. really work good, high power,good filtation. the carpet feel soft and clean after vacuum.

2 Stars no way to turn off brush, less suction and poorer filter than dyson
1. no way to turn off the brush

2. it doesnt suck as much as a dyson, i used both for for a long time and it doesnt have the suction of a dyson

3. the small dirt in carpets that dyson took out doesnt come all the way out in this one.

4. filter is not as good as in a dyson either. air quality is not as clean as in dyson which seemed to freshen the air as it vacuumed.

5. if you have a pet get a dyson PERIOD.
