Product Description
Help extend the life of your carpet with the Hoover Carpet Basics Power Scrub Deluxe. Designed to clean many carpeted and fabric surfaces in and around your home. Make cleaning a breeze with spill free tanks that are easy to access, easy to fill, empty and clean.
From the manufacturer
Is the Power Scrub safe for use on all carpets and rugs?
The Power Scrub is safe to use on most rug types including the following: Nylon, Polyolefin, Polyester, Acrylic (composition of many small area and throw rugs). Always check manufacturer’s label before cleaning for any specific instructions
Can the Power Scrub clean hard floors and furniture?
We do not recommend using this on hard floors. The HOOVER Power Scrub was designed for carpet cleaning only. However, this product does come with a cleaning hose and variety of tools to clean stairs and furniture!
Why will my Power Scrub Elite not turn on?
If using for the first time and it will not turn on or won’t stay on, you may need to press a bit harder on the switch. The switch may need a bit more force to activate it the first time
Why is it making a high-pitched whirring sound during operation?
If you hear a high-pitched whirring sound, this indicates that your dirty water tank is full and needs to be emptied
What cleaning solution should I use with the Power Scrub?
We recommend using only genuine Hoover solutions for best cleaning results. Hoover has a wide variety of cleaning solutions that pair perfectly with the Power Scrub

Deep Cleaning made easy
Hoover’s SpinScrub brushes powerfully remove dirt with 360-degrees of scrubbing while being gentle on your carpets. Now with a storage mat, storage is just as easy as your deep cleaning routine.

In the past, I've (very) occasionally rented and lugged home a Big Green Machine; but after some research, and encountering this Hoover, I did a quick calculation and realized that if I performed the equivalent of five rentals with this, it'd pay for itself. It has now done that, and I am impressed by the results.
It is important to use it well to be really effective, so I'm going to share the method I've developed. The first thing to note is, it's very important to empty the lower, dirty water tank regularly. The machine's suction depends on this. So, here's what I do now:
1. Vacuum the rug thoroughly, twice if necessary.
2. With a full tank of hot water and cleaning solution (I do like the Hoover Claws and Paws best, chiefly because its aroma isn't obnoxious), with the dial on the front of the input tank turned to Wash and the trigger pulled, run the machine over the rug. I tend to do it in halves -- 'top' half then 'bottom,' relative to where I'm standing, in order to assure myself of sufficient coverage.
3. Remove both tanks (very easy once you've done it once or twice) and replenish the fresh water, and dump and rinse the dirty water tank (if your rugs are anything like mine, the water will be gratifyingly filthy -- filth that is now leaving your house). Replace them on the machine.
4. Turn the dial to Rinse and, with the trigger pulled, do exactly what you did in step 2. This forces water, but no cleaning solution, through the rug -- which will now be pretty damp.
5. Remove, dump, rinse and replace the dirty water tank.
6. This is a step I only realized I could do after a few rugs: With the clean water tank still set to Rinse (just in case you touch the trigger), run the machine over the whole rug *again*, but this time do not pull the trigger. The brushes will not turn, but the machine will be sucking excess water out of the rug, which abbreviates the drying period.
7. When you're done, remove, dump (the water will *still* be astonishingly dirty) and rinse the dirty water tank.
8. Contemplate whether you want to do the whole thing over again, given how grubby the output water still is. Abandon this thought, shelving the idea for later.
9. Put the machine away.
10. I recommend a beer or a glass of wine, but you're welcome to have tea instead, as you look at the renewed colours in your rug...
11. Once the rug is dry, I'd recommend running the vacuum cleaner over it one more time, to get the pile in order. The attached photo shows a Gabbeh in my bedroom, which I just cleaned. Two greyhounds walk and sleep on it, in addition to humans and cats, so it was long overdue. You can see the disorder of the pile; it settles down as it dries, but the vacuuming step does help.

Two greyhounds walk and sleep on it, in addition to humans and cats, so it was long overdue. You can see the disorder of the pile; it settles down as it dries, but the vacuuming step does help.

Anyway, here are my thoughts on it. Just so you know, I have high pile carpets so this machine is already at a bit of a disadvantage. I'm going to start with cons:
*The handle is not that robust and cheaply attached. Use caution not to put undue lateral pressure on it to force the machine around. It works fine for back-and-forth motion.
*The gasket on the bottom of the fresh water tank is cheap. It leaks. It will wear out rapidly. Go ahead and order a couple and keep them on hand.
*The solution and fresh water fill ports are identical. The identifiers are molded into the plastic and easy to overlook. Grab some markers and label them.
*The tanks are small and go through water quickly. Just cleaning the main walkways in a small room necessitated about three fill-ups and dumps. BTW, remember the cheap gasket? Since you have to remove the water tank to fill it up so many times, it leaks momentarily every time you reinstall it but mine sealed off eventually after each tank install. It might be better to set the water tank on the machine so the fill tank doesn't leak and then just fill it in place with a gallon jug or something.
* The cord is short. I'm assuming the big companies must T&E folks with tiny houses because cords on home appliances are always too short. Just grab a 6' extension cord as that's about how much more you need. One other thing, and if it wasn't for the fact I have to box and ship the machine this *might* be deal breaker as it bothers me that much, the cord is routed through the bottom of the machine so you will run over it constantly. Yeah, there is a holding clip on the handle but now the cord is about 2' shorter so I'm having to whip the cord like a cowboy lassoing a calf to keep it out from under the wheels. Come on Hoover, or China or whatever. Stop that crap.
*The scrub brush. I'm pretty sure they just stuck that thing on there to say it has one. It freely floats about 2" with very little down pressure and the bristles are fine and soft. What the heck is that thing for anyway? It's darn sure not scrubbing anything. It's probably better to just take it off as it's just in the way.
Okay, so now the pros:
Now, you might think from what I listed above that I hate this machine. Actually I was somewhat impressed with it. I'm not sure how it cleans with that crappy little "scrub brush" but it looked like I was pulling chocolate milk out of my carpets. I regularly vacuum and just did some carpet cleaning about a week ago so I was a little disgusted. This little machine is phenomenal when it comes to spraying and suction and this is where it shines. It's not a carpet scrubber. You would need to buy a dedicated unit for that job. This is an extractor and a darn good one. I used the Hoover soap solution that was included but as soon as I opened the container, I wasn't a fan of the soapy smell. I went ahead and mixed up a 1/2 soap 1/2 water mix on the solution side (and eventually went to 1/3 soap 2/3 water) but started cleaning the carpet with straight ol' hot tap water. In case you're wondering, the tank is split with a 'rinse' side for straight water and a 'wash' side for water soap mix. I did a standard 'rinse' pushing forward, 'extract' pulling back and was amazed at how well it worked. Just using hot tap water worked as well as the solution but I went ahead and injected a little Hoover soap into the carpet. It's not so bad when greatly diluted so no headaches. Most of the carpets were okay enough to walk on with bare feet within about 30 minutes, although not dry. I'm writing this within an hour of finishing the cleaning so they are still damp. I figure a few hours and we will be good to go.
So, what do you get for $140? Well, you get a China-plastic machine with upholstery attachments that has small tanks, leaks a little right out of the box and has a useless scrub brush but somehow still cleans carpets pretty well. I think it's a little overpriced for what it is but for small rooms and spot cleaning it should be worth it if the longevity is there.
If you really want to make your carpets clean, in this price range I think you would be hard pressed to find a unit with better spraying and suction short of buying a heavy-duty commercial unit. Just buy an actual carpet scrubber with real nap lifters in conjunction with the Hoover. Vacuum really well, then scrub your carpet, extract using hot water with the Hoover then, if you have high pile or plush carpets, go back over your carpet with the nap lifters. It will look brand new again.
Top reviews from other countries

I did my research and compared product reviews/specifications in a similar price range and I'm very happy that I chose to purchase this cleaner!
There are so many pros to this cleaner, so I'll just list a few, then I'll address some of the problems in the negative reviews.
First off all, the engineering of this is very well thought out! I previously had a $150 carpet cleaner, which I actually had to strap lifting weights to, in order to get it to press hard enough down on my carpet, to suck up the water (no joke). This machine however, is designed so that the dirty water collection tank always sits on top of the vacuum suction head... think about that. What that means is, as you recover more dirty water, the head presses down harder on the carpet (due to the increasing water weight), recovering almost all of the water that you've sprayed out.... but wait, there's more! The heat exhaust of this machine, is vented down at the carpet, this helps to evaporate what little water remains, ingenious! This, combined with the separate water and detergent tanks, removable spinning brush heads and filters, plus the detachable stair/upholstery nozzles and many handles, really make this a no brainer purchase.
Now, to address some of the nay sayers:
To the person/people who complained about the brush heads hardly/not spinning when the machine was tilted on its back: I noticed the same thing, and it had me worried that it was broken, however I soon realized that this is most likely an intended safety feature. When tilted, the plastic cog wheel disconnects, to stop the brush heads spinning, but if you tilt it back upright, it puts pressure on the heads, engaging the shaft to cause them to spin (I verified this by reaching my hand slightly underneath, although I strongly discourage anyone from doing this)
As for the handle breaking: that person/people must have been very forceful, as I wasn't exactly "friendly" using mine, and encountered no problems at all, everything was rigid.
For the people complaining about water leakage: this happened to me as well, but it was my own fault. It happened by placing the clean water tank on incorrectly, easily fixed. The manual also warns about not tilting the machine on its back with water in the tanks.
For the people complaining about the tank sizes: this tank is actually very large! It holds twice the water of my old, similarly priced machine.
You have to consider that:
Any greater tank size would mean, thicker plastics to handle the stresses, increasing cost.
More pressure on the brush heads meeting the carpet, which means the shaft/cog wheel might need to be made of metal to handle that stress, increasing cost.
Finally, water is heavy and if the tanks were larger, less able people would find it very heavy to lift or handle.
The bottom line is most of the negative reviews were due (like many things) to human error or not following instructions correctly.
In conclusion, I honestly don't believe that you can beat the value this machine provides. I highly recommend this product! I would have happily paid well above what I did for this machine based upon its design and performance.

Easy to assemble, easy to use, easy to clean and refill! Not too heavy and has excellent suction!!
Note: You will need to buy more cleaning solution as the bottle that came with it didn't go far! Canadian Tire or Home Depot have large jugs of carpet cleaners for reasonable prices. Delivery was also one day earlier which was great!!
If you're thinking of purchasing a carpet cleaner this is the one!! Go for it! You won't be sorry!

Esta máquina es buenísima, no es tan grande como imagine por qué lo que leí en algunos comentarios, la elegí por tener la opción modo manual que el modelo más pequeño no tiene y lo use para limpiar las torres de gatos que pensé en tirar a la basura y recuperaron su color 😺
No logra limpiar las orillas pegadas a la pared o algún mueble, pero puedes usar para eso la manguera y hacerlo en modo manual y queda todo parejo.
Cuando apaguen la máquina inmediatamente pónganla inclinada hacia atrás, o el agua sucia que estaba llendo al depósito (y no llego) se regresa, se sale y mancha la alfombra. También pueden inclinarla dejando encendida durante un minuto para que el agua llegue al depósito completamente y no haya derrames.
El mantenimiento al terminar su uso fue fácil: sacar tanques, quitar boquilla de succión y cepillos, enjuagar todo y dejar secando en algún lugar.
Juzguen ustedes mismos los resultados, les dejo las fotos y video 😉
Yo estoy encantada con los resultados 😍
