Customer Reviews of Hoover H2850 FloorMate PowerBrush 300 Hard-Floor Cleaner
Customer Rating:   Summary: Pretty good, not nearly as good as my old model Comment: This machine is OK. I bought a floormate many years ago and I prefer my older model (I'm not sure of the exact model, but looks like the 3044). This machine cleans pretty well, but doesn't pick up the cleaning solution half as well as the 3044. Not a big deal, but I do need time to let the floor dry. Also, I couldn't consider using this machine for a spill cleanup. I'd highly recommend spending a few more dollars and going for the other models with the spinscrub. I also vacuum my house with my hoover vacuum prior to using this machine, so I never had any misconceptions on the vacuum/clean feature of the cleaner. Customer Rating: Summary: Great, When it works! Comment: I have bought two of these machines. One for my daughter, which I use constantly on her floors, and one for my daughter-in-law. Both machines work great and really do clean the floor well. However, my daughter's machine would slowly leak clean solution if it was left in the upper dispensing tank. (I'd read about this in one review, but thought is was just an odd occurance--wrong!) The answer was to never leave solution in the tank. However, after only 9 months of use, it began leaking all the clean solution as soon as you filled it. Now, it cannot be used to clean the floor at all. This is really disappointing. I've tried to find a replacement tank, but Hoover doesn't make it anymore and no one seems to have one. Hoover has no answer for the problem other than buying the newer model. My daughter-in-law has never said anything about hers leaking, and is still using it regularly after 18 months. When it works, it really does clean the floor well, but after this experience, I am unsure if I want to invest in another one. Customer Rating: Summary: Floormate review Comment: I've used these before - on the good side the tank is easier to get on & off. Negative this Floormate doesn't seem as powerful as the other one I had. It leaves water and doesn't dry or scrub like the other one. I also would prefer an item made in America. Once this one stops working I don't think I will purchase another one. Customer Rating: Summary: Great product at a great price Comment: Couldn't beat the price of this floor cleaner. It works very well on my tile and hardwood floors. So much cleaner than using a mop, especially with 2 dogs in the house. My only hangup is that I have to empty the tank quite a few times when cleaning my fairly small kitchen & bathroom. I think if I had sprung for one of the more expensive versions from Hoover they may have a bigger tank capacity. On the plus side, the tank emptying process is simple. Would definitly recommend this cleaner! Customer Rating: Summary: If it only woked, I'd had given it 5 stars Comment: This is my fourth floor-mate third model in 3 years. The two problems with this model is that it puddles if left alone on or off, and the other main problem it that the suction "flap" in the Intake cup (for the lack or the actual word) keep closing even tho there is nothing clogging it. So it needs to be turned off every other minute so the flap can release itself. $129.00 for this? Do I go to the next model or Skip HOOVER all together? Does any one know of another company that make something like the floor-mate? It is a totally great idea if it only worked without the flaws these "floor mates" have.

Choosing Appliance -> Stainless steel bowls These are the best all purpose bowls for a multitude of applications. Choose a wide range of sizes (be sure to get a large bowl for whipping egg whites and whipped cream). In general, the heavier the bowl, the higher quality. Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Washer When shopping for a new washer, look for a front loading (horizontal-axis) machine. This machine may cost more to buy but uses about a third of the energy and less water than a top-loading machine. With a front loader, you'll also save more on clothes drying, because they remove more water from your clothes during the spin cycle. Look for the Energy Star label.

Useful info -> EnergyWise House: Laundry About 80 percent to 85 percent of the energy used for washing clothes is for heating the water. There are two ways to reduce the amount of energy used for washing clothes - use less water and use cooler water. Unless you're dealing with oily stains, the warm or cold water setting on your machine will generally do a good job of cleaning your clothes. Switching your temperature setting from hot to warm can cut a load's energy use in half. |
