Hoover Streamline Corded Hard Floor Cleaner Machine, Wet Dry Vacuum Floor Cleaning Machine, Self Cleaning System, Ideal for Hardwood, Luxury Vinyl, Tile and More

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.

My floors have never been this clean and looked this nice. It is so easy to use. I have 2 houses with all hardware (no carpet) and I can't believe I never knew about this before. The machine does a Fantastic job but even more importantly is the ease and convenience.Update- roller stopped working after 3wks. Support unable to assist and wanted me to take to service center 1hr away so decided to return instead. Excitement turned to disappointment. Will definitely get another hard floor cleaner but now apprehensive about brand because should last longer than 3wks

I bought this because it was Consumer Reports' top pick for this type of device. I did find it relatively easy to assemble and set up, and I DID like how it cleaned--WHEN I could get it to work!The problem was, I kept getting brush roll errors, signifying something was preventing the brush roll from operating properly. That meant stopping to check and reseat the brush roll, which is time consuming if it happens every 1-3 minutes. Just a light bump against a baseboard was often enough to set it off again. I found myself steering clear of the baseboards to avoid problems so I could work, which of course was unacceptable because those areas weren't getting cleaned.After a couple of uses, trying various things to fix the problem, I concluded I must have a lemon, with a defective brush roll assembly. And this is a Hoover, which in my experience doesn't make good products. That meant the problem would probably just get worse. I decided the machine was too much hassle to work with, so I'd probably not use it much, and I'd spent too much money on it to use it as an expensive doorstop. So... Back it goes!Here's another thing. I still had the original box and packaging, BUT I couldn't figure out how to get the handle off to get it reboxed properly. There's probably a hidden pin somewhere that you push to release it, as for other Hoover models, but I couldn't find any information for it. So, I had to do my best to kinda sorta tape it up in its box with the handle sticking out, and then attach a note explaining the problem. Thankfully, UPS did take it anyway.

Worked ok for about a year. Doesn’t suck up dry items/wet very well. Used primarily on hardwood. Have to take out and disassemble spinner/ mop head and wash separately in order to dry well and not smell and have an oder .Started leaking after a year if i left the water/ cleaner tanks in the unit. It would Leak into the charge base. Now work charge up. Need to find remedy otherwise useless after 1.5 yr use. Needs design improvements. Not worth the money. Don’t recommend.

Was recommended this and used it nearly everyday since I bout it. It’s been a life saver with a dog and a cat.

Let me start by saying power is not an issue because I bought the corded model. Worked the first time straight out of the box. Every attempt since it has not. The machine has 8 streams that are supposed to wet the microfiber cleaning roller which spins against the floor. Dirty water is sucked into the tank. When using it after the first time, the roller is wet ONLY where the water jets dispense against the roller, leaving wet lines where the roller turns against the floor. The roller is NOT getting wet enough to clean the floor. I removed the roller and squeezed the trigger to watch the jets, only 4 were working and at a trickle, leaving a track of wet lines (see attached pic). Amazon will not refund me, so I called Hoover having done the warranty registration after I rec'd it. It took 3 days for Hoover to return my call. Customer service rep was great-I had my pics and videos to show a malfunctioning machine. They shipped a replacement after I proved I destroyed the old machine. The new machine performs the same - wet lines, dry roller, floors are not getting clean. I am out over $200. One more thing of note - the "boost" feature is the roller spinning faster. It doesn't press or rub the floor any harder so I still have to manually clean any stubborn spots. I had high hopes and twice am left disappointed. I just want my $ back.

This product did a nice job cleaning and the price is right. I did not like that it left streaks after cleaning. I also had concerns with other reviews. It seems like there are some quality control issues. Unfortunately reviews for the corded and cordless intermix so its hard to figure out which model is having the issues.
