    Thanks so much!! This afternoon our dog threw up all over the stairs - the runner was all soiled. I was panicking because I didn't know how to use the hose of the steam vac. Then I found your video. It made my day!! It was easy to follow and very helpful. You have helped our household avoid an episode of full blown chaos and stress attack!!
    I thank you and our dog thanks you very much!

    I tried figuring this out for 20min (no manual) before I did a search. Im not even sure why I waste my time anymore. There is a video for just about everything these days. Cheers mate .

      I had to laugh at your post because I did the same danged thing and was so exasperated. There is a video for just about everything but I did have to fast forward through 3 other videos before finding this one that actually shows how to attach upholstery tool!

    We just purchased the Hoover SteamVac Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner and brought it home to assemble. Even after reading the instructions, we could not figure out how to attach the upholstery spray line. We finally got online and found your video, which showed us exactly where the sprayer line was attached to the dirty water tank. Once we saw how you did it we were able to get ours set up correctly and cleaned two recliners that had gone through about 8" of flood water. Now they look and smell fresh and clean. We consider that cleaning just these two recliners saved us the cost of the unit, and we have several other chairs that will get the same treatment, as well as future cleanings. Thank you very much for your demonstration video!

    Wanted to thank everyone for their comments it really been amazing to see how many people have same issue with same product. I was just trying to give back because people's videos have helped me so much. My only frustration is the videos where the people talk about everything ,but the subject the video is about for too much of the video. I tried to get to the point here bang bang bang.

    Thank you so very much! You are very thoughtful. :) My poor son, who was so sweet to shampoo the entire house for me, struggled with this attachment for about 25 min... I searched and found your video, he forwarded to the part you attach it: Voila!!! We will never forget this ever again! Tricky!

  • @tlong2374
    @tlong2374 Před 7 lety +6

    Your demo is by far the best. I watched a couple others, some with slightly different machines, the concept was basically the same. I have this exact unit, never used it. Now I plan on spending the time to try it out. Thanks for making me and many others a whole lot less confused.

    Wow. I've had my cleaner almost 4 years and had no clue that the upholstery cleaner brush spins. I thought it was simply a scrubber. Now I see that I was hooking it up incorrectly. I almost gave up on this vacuum.....now the brushes spin like new and it works perfectly! Thank you.

  • @snowy6151
    @snowy6151 Před 10 lety

    Thanks very much for posting this video. I must mention that not all Steamvacs come with the spinny stair and upholstery brush, as mine didn't. My unit came with a triangular brush that snaps into the hose. It works just fine for small jobs. If you had not posted this video, I would still be scratching my head trying to figure out how to use this as my instruction manual has gone into hiding. Thanks again! PS, the triangular brush is located on the top of the unit handle hiding behind a plastic triangle door. (very nifty)

  • @emmetwesley
    @emmetwesley Před 4 lety +2

    If the hose attachment doesn't put out the cleaning water, try filling a large spray bottle and just spraying the solution down. It goes down much more evenly and you can let it sit for a bit and even use a handheld brush to scrub the dirt, then just use the attachment to suck up the water. I found this to be much more effective overall.

  • @mattbrewster4501

  • @anakonda3035
    @anakonda3035 Před 3 lety

    I even subscribed to your channel because you saved us another hour wasting time to figure this out, without the manual, that we could be cleaning instead! We have a much older model, but the attachment is the same. Nowadays, Hoover has a round attachment for stairs: much easier to install: no need to be an engineer or puzzle solver!

  • @ebsmith51

    Hey Bob: AWESOME VIDEO ! Do you know that I have spent over a year using my Hoover Spin Scrub (I've gone thru 4 already) and never been able to figure out how to attach the hose! I have been putting it in upside down. I could NEVER get the lid to fit back on the resevoir. I had the wildest idea to go on CZcams to see if anyone posted instructions on it. YOU ARE THE MAN! THANK YOU FOR BEING SO THOUGHTFUL and PATIENT in making a video on how to do this. I really cannot wait to shampoo my car seats!

  • @melissamack330
    @melissamack330 Před 10 lety

    Thank you for your awesome video- I thought heyyyy that looks easy... so I go through step by step and hook it all up, and there's no suction. So I try to take it off, noticing I've broken a part of the tank when I was installing the connection and re-tried. Well that when things got fun because I had to pry it off with a screwdriver and a hammer. Needless to say, I threw the hose away and decided to drag the machine up and down the stairs while I cleaned the steps. After nearly spraining my ankle and a lot of curse words, the steps are halfway decent :) Turns out all those push ups in the Army had me prepared to do this carpet shampooing thing! Hope I made you smile as now I'm laughing at myself, thankful I was home alone :)

    The only thing to add is that the attachment defies logic. When you insert the attachment it inserts UPSIDE DOWN so that the seal faces the lid of the collection tub. Glad you took the time to do this.
