HOOVER: Power Dash Pet Carpet Cleaner/Shampoo-er |$79 | How To | Review | Take apart & Clean

[@JohnnyRebKy]

Get some foaming carpet cleaner in a can and spray on carpet first. The kind they sell for cleaning your car. Spray it on the stains and let it sit awhile and then use this machine on it. The turtle wax brand or armour all brand works very good. The stuff you mix in the water tank isn’t very good that’s why I use a car seat cleaner on stains first

[@angelinaanderson481]

I tried what u recommended and it worked so much better.!!!!! 😊

[@MarlzJinx]

Thanks!

[@rustyrules4264]

I’m going to try that. Ty

great tip, thanks!!!

[@mariafichera3587]

This was an extremely helpful video. Thank you so much. You did a fantastic job and saved us a lot of time reading the booklet! Looking forward to more videos in the future!

YES, YES THE VIDEO 👍🏾👍🏾

[@Found4655]

THE BEST VIDEO EVER ON HOW TO CLEAN A CARPET SHAMPOOER!!!

[@WandaleeArnau]

Thank you 🤭

[@deeskaggs4087]

this works great! I loaned it to my daughter; within 30 days she borrowed it again. let her keep it and purchased another - great job Hoover!,

[@WandaleeArnau]

Awesome!

[@ameobiamicrobiological2366]

This is the best video I've seen!! I bought this because I need to clean the carpets and they're all upstairs. I can't carry one of those really big machines up and down the stairs. This is exactly what I wanted to see, and you did exactly what I would do! I was having trouble connecting the handle to the vacuum because it didn't want to stay in and now I know how to check to see I've got it seated properly thanks to you! This video made my day and my carpet cleaning task so much easier thank you! 🙏🤩🤩

[@WandaleeArnau]

Yay! I'm glad it was helpful. Yes I love that it's lightweight. 😊

[@ruthsan61]

I just did my carpet and it's th best decision!!! Even if I have to add water to the tank a couple times...LOVE IT!

[@christaburford]

This video saved me. I have this cleaner and my dog got sick last night on the carpet and I have a poopy mess to clean up. I wondered if this cleaner would come apart to be cleaned and sanitized afterwards. Thank you for showing that it can be!!!!

[@WandaleeArnau]

Oh no I hope your fur baby is feeling better! I'm glad it was helpful. 😊

[@betsymcmurray727]

This video was so helpful - especially on how to clean the machine! I have to say, cleaning the machine is cumbersome and a job in itself. Not sure I would have purchased it knowing what you have to go through to clean it. But your video is excellent!!!

[@WandaleeArnau]

😄 thank you

[@paulpittsburgh]

I JUST PURCHASED THIS MACHINE AND YOUR TUTORIAL WAS EXCELLENT !!! HOW TO CLEAN THE MACHINCE IS A VERY IMPORTANT THING AND YOU SHOWED HOW TO VERY WELL !!! ❤❤❤

[@WandaleeArnau]

Oh yay! Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful! 😁

[@ruthsan61]

This looks awesome - but I suggest not take a sample on a white carpet...it would be better in a high traffic so one can see the difference...but I definately like to do this...

[@WandaleeArnau]

@ruthsan61 It is a high traffic area but the reason why it's not filthy is because we remove our shoes when we enter the house. Hopefully you still saw a difference! 😊

[@frankrodriguez6424]

Ouch I was trying to remove the container with it tilted,,!, mistake! Almost took it back lol, instructions show that the top of the container with dirty water comes off,but no right.?

[@WandaleeArnau]

Yes you can remove the container and rinse it.

[@cea6600]

Thank you so much for creating this video. Even though I read the instructions your video made using the machine and cleaning the machine parts so easy. I especially liked learning how pulling the side pieces allows access to the brush cover for cleaning. Awesome video. Thank you again.

You have to take them out for cleaning ???

Unfortunately for this one there are no attachments. You'd have to buy a separate machine. What I do for stains on our couch, I spray shout and rub it with a damp cloth. Works pretty good!

You Won't Be Mad Gabrielle I Just Bought One!, This Little Shampooer Is Very Effective And Powerful!!, It Has My Carpet Looking New!!, The Only Drawback Is The Solution Tank Size It Will Only Allow You To Do A Smally Decent Section At A Time 1/4 But It Gets The Carpet Super Clean!!!.. The Advantage Is The Brushes Are Always Moving.. Unlike The Bigger Shampooers They're Brushes Only Move After You Release The Solution Trigger You May Have To Keep Refilling The Tank, But With How Clean It Gets Your Carpet, It's Worth It!!

[@dalemessenger3406]

Wow first of all never use a drill on metal screws that go into plastic. After a few times of taking this apart use a plain old fashioned hand held screwdriver and do not over tighten it. I could hear your drill trying to strip the head of the screw on every one. On the front clear plastic piece you can hold the machine upside down over the sink and just rinse it out. make sure you keep the water out of the Power switch. Just watching you pry the plansitc like you were you are too impatient for this type of work. Watch a video before you take anything apart.

[@WandaleeArnau]

Thanks for the feedback! It got easier the 2nd time around and I did end up using a handheld. Definitely not impatient, I fast forwarded that part so it wouldnt take too much time in the video. 😄
