Hoover SmartWash+ Automatic Carpet Cleaner Review

For years I contemplated the cost of buying a home carpet cleaning machine–I’d pay carpet cleaners to come to my home once or twice a year to do carpet cleanings, but when we brought home a new puppy I quickly realized it was beyond time to get a home carpet cleaner? But what is the Best Carpet Cleaner and who makes the best carpet cleaning machine?! Which is the better carpet cleaner Hoover or Bissell? And is it worth the cost?! Today I want to share with you my Hoover SmartWash+ Automatic Carpet Cleaner Review and why it’s been a godsend for my family!

Hoover SmartWash Review-120

Hoover SmartWash+ Automatic Carpet Cleaner Review

We got the Hoover SmartWash a few months ago and I’ve waited a while to post this until I had used it several times to ensure it worked properly and I understood how everything worked. The Hoover SmartWash+ Automatic Carpet Cleaner was my choice because it had great reviews on all the sites that I checked and it was a great price. I also liked that it was made to deep clean and neutralize pet stains–which was the main reason I was getting it.

How does the Hoover SmartWash work?

So the Hoover is super easy to use. Before you use the SmartWash, be sure to thoroughly vacuum your carpet. The SmartWash is not meant to vacuum your carpet and sucking up large particles into the system isn’t good for it. Vacuum thoroughly first and then let the SmartWash get all the dirt that the vacuum can’t reach.

To start, you fill up the water tank with clean, hot water.

Next up, you add the Hoover Cleaning Solution to the back container.

Then you turn the machine on. When you push forward, the wash button will light up and you’ll see the water being pushed into the carpet. When you pull backward, the Dry button lights up and it sucks the water back up. The cool thing is when  you see the dark, dirty water being sucked up into the machine and you know it’s working!

So here’s a little peek at the space that I am cleaning in my sunroom. It gets all the traffic in and out of the backyard so it’s always dirty!

BEFORE: Near the door there are noticeable spots and my daughter dropped slime on the ground, so it’s there for good (no carpet cleaner can get that up sadly). 

DURING: Here’s after one pass over part of the stain. You can see the dirty part on the top and the clean line on the bottom.

AFTER: The stains are fully lifted, but not the slime…and I didn’t expect the slime would lift. 

And here’s what the water looked like after cleaning the area…

Pretty gross, yet oddly satisfying, right? And when you dump it out, it’s actually much more disgusting and also still oddly satisfying knowing that all that crap is out of your carpet now!

Other cool thing about this carpet cleaner…once you get done washing, if you notice there’s a lot of water in the carpet still, you hit the “Dry Only” button on the machine and you can go back over the carpet just sucking water out of the areas you washed. So what I like to do is thoroughly clean the carpet and then go over in Dry Only mode about 2 times to ensure all the extra water has been extracted that I’m able to.

So now onto your questions…

Is the Hoover SmartWash any good?

I’ve been extremely happy with this machine! It’s easy to use, easy to put together, and it’s been a godsend in my household. Our puppy had diarrhea recently (so gross!) and the job was so much easier to clean up and know it was thoroughly cleaned with this machine. Normally after this happened, I’d likely have a huge stain on my carpet and the carpet would be matted where we’d been scrubbing, but instead I cleaned up as much as possible with a paper towel and then I used this machine and just kept going over the spot and it was so simple to clean up a huge mess.

If you are a pet owner or have kids then I think this is 100% a great option for you!

Which is a better carpet cleaner Hoover or Bissell?

I don’t have much experience with the Bissell, but I think the Hoover is great and I have no issues at all with it. So my recommendation from personal experience is the Hoover.

Does Hoover SmartWash heat the water?

It does not. You have to put hot water into the machine yourself.

How long does it take for carpet to dry after using Hoover?

It takes less than 24 hours to dry…if not less. I’d say it took about 6-8 hours for them to dry, but it just depends on the carpet and how bad the stain was.

Where to buy the Hoover SmartWash pet carpet cleaner?

I recommend purchasing off Amazon, which is where we got ours.

How much is this carpet cleaner?

The carpet cleaner ranges from $250-$300 with the cleaning solution.

How to clean the Hoover?

Once you are done cleaning your carpets. You start by emptying the dirty water and cleaning the filter that is inside the container. After that, you take the cover off where the roller brushes are and rinse that out. Let both parts air dry and then store. It’s very simple!

I hope this review really helped you–sometimes it’s nice to have a real person telling you about a product. Please know that this post is completely unsponsored and unaffiliated with Hoover, I’m just writing to help inform you of a great products that’s worked well in my home.
