Hoover H3030 FloorMate SpinScrub 500 Floor Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Nothing is going to get your floor as clean as good ol' handwashing on your hands and knees.But who is willing to do that anymore? This machine is a reasonable tradeoff between convenience and efficiency.

It really will scrub sealed floors clean. Don't expect to save much time over traditional mopping, though.You must slooooowly push and pull it several times over a spot to really get it clean.Stubborn or ground in stains may require a second or third wash. And it's impossible to fully clean edges or corners.

A couple items are worth mentioning.First, the dry vac mode is extremely weak.I could not get it to suck up a simple peppercorn or corn flake! Pre-sweeping with a broom or other bare floor vac is a must.

Secondly, Hoover recommends only using their special floor cleaner with the machine, which I find annoying, expensive and hard to find.I emailed them about this, and they said I could also use vinegar and water, which is too mild in my opinion.I felt daring and have used other floor cleaners in the machine without any problem. However, I would avoid using pine, orange, bleach, or ammonia based cleaners -- as the instructions specifically mention not to use "solvent" based cleansers.

So overall, a solid product.Just be realistic in your expectations of what it can do.

Hoover FloorMate SpinScrub Wet/Dry Vacuum Cleaner, H3044 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This thing is loud, but it works.If there's a weakness, it's that the dry vacuum doesn't seem to do too well.But that's what a good sweeping is for, isn't it?I have linoleum, and the H3044 did a fine job.The cleaning solution was pretty filthy when I poured it out after use, both satisfying and repulsive at the same time!It seems that this is a new Hoover model (July 2007), which explains why there are not a lot of reviews to be found online.I wish it could use Pine-Sol, because I have a Costco-sized jug of that stuff on hand already.Will vinegar/water mix work?I have no idea.I don't see why not.I guess the fear is that the gaskets will fail if solvents are used.Guess I'll stick to the Hoover stuff for now.Anyways, it scrubbed my floors quite well, even though they're a bit uneven/warped.The vacuum is great at picking the solution back up.Hope that helps.
