Hoover F7220900 SteamVac V2 Upright Vacuum

Pros: actually works and works well (once you know how to use it), rinse feature
Cons: none

The Hoover V2 SpinScrub Steam Vacuum F7220900 came into our home out of necessity rather than desire. How many people really want to own a steam cleaner? Yet, if you need one, you need to find a good one rather than just settling for what the loc ...

Pros: Cleans the carpet very well, easy to use.
Cons: Cheap plastic material.

I wanted to get my own SteamVac for years. My husband however preferred to rent the good old Rug Doctor, which was okay, but when you total the cost of renting the unit, it’s like buying a new SteamVac twice a year! Having two cats and a big dog ...

Pros: Trusted Brand. Good cleaning. Easy to fill/empty tanks.
Cons: No adjustable height. Better on shag then on dense low pile carpet.

After years using a cumbersome attachment to my Shop-vac to steam clean my carpets, I was ready for something easier. I read numerous reviews and found one thing in common: upright steam cleaners are not very sturdy or dependable. The brand that seemed...

Pros: EXTREMELY effective, DEEP cleaning, little moisture left. Easy to use.
Cons: THE cheap plastic on this simply crumbles and falls apart.

I am a previous owner of a Bissel ProHeat with 3 dogs (at the time). To make a long story short, I often resorted to renting a Rug Doctor to *really* clean the carpets, as the Bissel never seemed to do so. The rollbrush construction of the Bissel simply ...

Pros: great cleaning, rinse, extracts water very well
Cons: pretty narrow cleaning path

Cleaning carpets is difficult. The Hoover F7225-900 (the model I own - identical except in color to ...

Pros: Vacuums, cleans & scrubs and dries all at the same time.
Cons: a little heavy when trying to carry up steps.

The carpets in our home were looking a little on the drab side. And the vacuum and spray on foam carpet cleaners just were not doing the trick. I knew I had no other option than to get it cleaned. I didn't want to pay the cost of getting a professional ...

Pros: Excellent Cleaning
Cons: Hose Storage Cheap

I have one room of carpet in the family room so it gets dirty. I decided to buy a steam cleaner so t ...

Pros: This machine is comparable to our old Bissell and got notably better using Bissell detergent.
Cons: The materials it's made of are not very durable.

We had a Bissell for about 10 years, it cleaned a lot of carpet in that time period. My son borrowed it quite often to clean the carpet in his apartment. He lived forty miles away, so I gave it to him and purchased the Hoover model F7220900. After I had ...

Pros: Can clean and rinse at the same time, doesn't oversaturate carpet
Cons: expensive, bulky to store

Finally, my cream colored carpet is clean! After about 4 years, my beautiful cream carpet was horrible. I had a choice of hiring a company to clean them or to buy a steam cleaner. The final option of course is to go to the store, rent a big heavy ...

Pros: Heated air seems to help drying and cleaning. rinse of the carpet works well.
Cons: cleaner is heavy/noisy self propelled feature is needed as a muffler for the noise

I just purchased the Hoover Dual V Steam Vac F7220-900. There might be some confusion as to what the Steam Part means since the box states Heated Cleaning. This may make you think that the Hoover heats the water like some other units. This is NOT ...

Pros: Deep cleaning. A real sense you're getting the dirt out.
Cons: I wish someone would find a way to make the host attachment easier to use.

For the last 5 years, we owned the $120 Dirt Devil model figuring "it sprays, it scrubs, it sucks the water out" - how complicated can this be. We permanently loaned it out and chose that moment to upgrade. Based on the ratings from another consumer ...

Pros: Cleans and dries great, easy to use
Cons: Frequent emptying of reserve tank, attachment hose comes loose easily, power cord too short.

I have had excellent luck with this machine. It's the first one I have owned, so I don't have much to compare it to, but it has worked great for me so far. My dog had marked his territory in a couple of places that I didn't catch for a while, and the ...

Pros: Excellent cleaning and recovery of liquid.
Cons: Needed to refill the one-gallon tank; Did it 4 times for a 13x13 room

My kid puked up all over a off white berber carpet. On the wall then down to the edge of the carpet and wall. I have tried Rug Doctor, but the machines SUCK and basically left more soap on the carpet then it retrieved, so the carpets were pretty ...

Pros: Superfast drying, even when the rug is soaked! No wasted detergent.
Cons: Detergent tank is thin plastic, not adhered to unit as well as it should be.

I researched this before I bought it, and I am very happy with the cleaner. It really pulls a lot of water out of the carpet, so they dry fast! If you clean the rugs often, like I do, it is so much better than a rental. It was an essential part of ...

Pros: Worked good for the first couple of times
Cons: Breaks down faster than a folding chair

Fresh out of the box, it worked fine. Then the problems started. Started leaking water from the tank then stopped dispensing water altogether. Original tank was made of plastic thinner than paper. The machine spent the better part of (7) weeks at the ...
