Hoover Streamline Corded Hard Floor Cleaner, Wet Dry Vacuum, FH46000V, Silver

Hi, I'd love the heck out of this little simple hard floor cleaner, except it doesn't work properly. While it's OK for simple cleaning tasks, if you have a deeper cleaning need it won't even come close. Add to that the charging base is an extremely poor design. The self cleaning feature fails after a few times of it working due to the base having it's charging connectors in the wet area. The charge points become wet and start to corrode, which makes the device think the battery is bad. And it won't self clean on a bad battery. Very very poor design Hoover! The charge points should have been above the wet basin in the holder, maybe an inch or two above the basin and behind the device so inserting into the base would have been just as easy, but no risk of the contacts failing. Even now after a few months, the battery doesn't even charge any more in the base due to the contacts rusting over. While I still charge the battery on a seperate charger, and the device still does clean good enough for the couple times a week touch ups I do, I'll likely not return it, but I feel I should. And getting in touch with Hoover Support has been impossible so far. They don't answer e-mails or phone call messages. Needless to say, I'm not too happy with this little guy.

Unboxed the Hoover Hard Floor Cleaner today and did some much needed cleaning. We are an elderly couple with mobility issues and purchased this floor cleaner in hopes that it would make it possible for us to avoid having to hire somebody to clean for us. We bought the corded cleaner thinking it would be less taxing to push it around. We found it light enough and easy to push. We loved not having to deal with buckets of water or wringing out mops. Our large great room required us to empty the reservoir several times to clean the large area but we found the size of the reservoir manageable and easy to empty. The floors were wet but there were no puddles of standing water which was important for our engineered hardwood floors. The floors dried in an appropriate amount of time. The cord was long enough so that we only had to move outlets a couple of times. Our problem of dried grass being tracked in by our dog was easily vacuumed up to our delight. We did not find the motor to be too loud but it is our habit to wear noise cancelling headphones so it was not an issue for us. Every bit of water was sucked up we did not have a problem with water leaking from the roller head being left behind. Any water was vacuumed up. We found the suction power adequate. This floor cleaner is far better than any other method of mopping. It seems well made, we are hoping this thing holds up over time. I never want to go back to using a mop ever again.

Es un aparato excelente que facilita la limpieza de mi casa, lo recomiendo.

It failed just like everyone else said it would! Battery failure after a few months, and issues with detection of solution in tank. When it finally died it just leaked the solution all over my floor overnight.

Cleaned great when it would work. Absolute garbage though. Have only used this a handful of times on my epoxied concrete floors. Had issues upon first start up due to the roller not spinning. Followed directions before start up if you are wondering. You have to angle it just right to get it to run. Ran cleaning cycle each time and kept it clean. Brought it out to use today and the roller is seized up and won’t move. Made multiple attempts at looking for and fixing the issue. Finally decided that it’s not worth my energy to mess with this cheaply made, yet expensive junk. Do not waste your money on this.
