Q: where is the hook up on the machine to do the stairs?

submitted by Smoothie - 4 years ago
  • A: On the front above the nozzle is a small latch/hatch/access point that is colored differently than the surrounding base. Open that and connect the hose there. If you need further assistance, please reach out to us at Hoovercommunity@ttifloorcare.com we'll be happy to help! Thanks, Joseph - The Hoover Team

  • A: Once it's hooked up as mentioned above, turn the machine on, leave it upright, and press the trigger on the handle to release soap & water. To suck the water up, let go of the trigger.

Q: Can any commercial cleaning solution be used or must it be the Hoover brand?

submitted by tlee - 4 years ago
  • A: This is my favorite carpet cleaner ever! I've always used a mixture of either Mrs. Meyers, or Mrs. Meyers and 1/4 cup bleach (never bleaches my carpet, only santizes it) and I've used even laudry soap and bleach (small amounts of each) and have had exceptional results. I think they want you to use the Hoover brand cleaners for obvious reasons, but I've always used other methods when I ran out of the cleaner that comes with the machine. If your uneasy about the bleach mixture try a little on a small patch first. But I've always put about a 1/4 cup in my full water tank to sanitize my carpet. Love it.

    submitted byJean - 4 years ago
  • A: Thank you for your question! We only recommend using Hoover Solutions with your Hoover SmartWash because our solutions are designed to work with your cleaner to provide the best possible clean. Non-brand solutions could have undesirable effects on your cleaner and floors. Thanks, Joseph - The Hoover Team

Q: does this have the ability to choose between different suction levels, if not which model does?

submitted by stef - 11 days ago
  • A: That is a great question. Different suction levels are unnecessary because it has double brushes and the suction power is fantastic. There is also a dry-only feature so you can suck more dirty and clean water up. Thank you-The Hoover Team.

I thought this was awesome to use and get all the dog hair off the carpet. It was unbelievable how much dog hair came out of the carpet even after a vacuum. Not to mention the the color the water comes out. It also worked great on our couches! Problem came up 1.5 years after ownership where the solution tank no longer works. Waiting to hear from customer service and hoping something can be done but I imagine the warranty is done. Was still great to have around and will probably still work by loading soap in the water tank directly.

The cleaner stop working after one use. I started cleaning my carpet and after 20 minutes the roller stop spinning. What a disappointment and the number for customer service/technical support is lacking no help. I had to return to Target for a refund.

The vacuum only worked for a year after that it stopped suctioning and dispensing solution with water. I paid for coverage but i have not been able to send it in because everytime i try calling to create a claim no one answers and everytime i fill out the coverage form i click send and it sends me to a page that says page does not exist. So now i am left with a vacum that does not work.

Please read the other reviews! Runs like a dream for about a year and then breaks down. Hoover customer service is an absolute nightmare and after hours and hours trying to get a hold of them, talked to their recommended repair shops in our area who just told us they don’t even repair shampooers. All they could do was offer 10% off a new one. So if you don’t want to drop another $200+ on a new one after 1-2 years, go with another brand. The leaking is a common problem and they know it. They said it shouldn’t harm the motor but now the motor is making loud high pitched sounds and over heating after following their instructions to “resolve” the leak issue. Do not buy.

I loved this steam cleaner, worked well at first. But..I have had for less than a year and out of nowhere it started sounded like it was surging, and then smelled like it was burning. I looked at the belt and the belt was fine, but when i opened the back compartment that you can dee the motor through, i could see sparks and smoke. I always keep this machine cleaned well and well taken care of but it seems the motor has gone. Now i am left with an expensive machine that i cannot use.

Butterworths - 28 days ago
I bought this in March 2022. It had great reviews and I was really excited to try it out. The first couple times it seemed to work great. Soon my carpet started to smell like literal crap. Fuzz balls everywhere too! I constantly cleaned the scrub brushes because the pet hair would get all inside there and inside the top plastic part. Every time I would have to use a butter knife to gently open the inside of the plastic part to get the hair to slide through. The dirty water container doesn't do anything as far as the filter goes. Like I said, all the dirt, pet hair, everything gets tangled and smooshed inside the bottom two brushes, above, on the sides, inside the plastic cover. Yuck! Now onto the cleaning part. It worked for awhile but I quickly noticed that the carpet would always be extremely wet afterwards. The design of the cleaner solution automatically mixing with the water tank is a joke. My carpets never got clean like they did with every other carpet cleaner I've owned. And I've owned quite a few. In October of 2023 it started making grinding noises and started smoking. I still had a warranty so I contacted Hoover. They had me take a video of the cord and the machine making the noise. Also had to send pictures. Then I printed the email confirmation, put the model number sticker on there and took a picture of all of those things and the cord cut off. Hoover sent me a brand new one. Before getting the replacement I bought the Hoover power scrub deluxe carpet cleaner and I love it! It's like night and day. Having the trigger on the machine works wonders compared to the smart wash plus. I gave it two stars for getting a free replacement. I cannot recommend this especially if you have pets. It stinks in every way possible.

Best purchase of 2023 hands down! This has been an absolute lifesaver. My dog is a senior and gets sick easier which has resulted in many accidents on my apartment carpet. You cannot tell AT ALL that any accidents have occurred and it also gets rid of the scent so much faster than anything else I’ve tried. Cannot recommend this enough for dog parents!!!

I have very busy children and that spill everything from food to milk and juice on the carpet and this carpet cleaner along with the solution that I used that works with the cleaner brought my carpet back to life and the order that was on the carpet also lifted. This is a great investment to have especially if you have younger children as busy as mines.

Used it once halfway through it Quit sucking up the water from the carpet. Took it apart and got it to work. I want to use it a second time same problem but this time can't get it to work. It's blowing out the air instead of vacuuming in, so I cannot get the water out the carpet.
