Lovin' It
I am really happy with the Hoover Floormate Deluxe. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t the great job this did. Our floors look like new again. I did go over the floor a couple times because the dirty water was really, really dirty. And I thought our floor was already half way clean. I’m writing this review after only one use so, as of now, I have not seen anything negative about this product. I see somewhere that it was nosey. I guess if you live in a mortuary it would be, but for the average person it would be called doing its job. The cord was long enough to reach all corners of a fairly large Kitchen/Dinning area. This review is for our Vinyl floors. I have not used it on my Pergo floors as I just don’t feel comfortable putting water on the Pergo as it is NOT sealed. I do believe that the FMD would remove most of the water but I still worry about the moisture. I do live in the Pacific Northwest which doesn’t help the moisture dry as well as in warmer areas. If I lived in a warmer climate I would probably try it on the Pergo.
It does not seem to take much water to get the results. I filled it up one time and it cleaned both bathrooms and the Kitchen/Dining room (about 550 sq ft in all) and I still had some water/cleaner left. And I did go over the K/D twice. So I would say about or close to 1000 sq ft per fill up.
Also it is very lightweight so easy to move and stores in a fairly small area. Easy cleanup.
I think by taking the dirty water off the floor it made a huge difference in the way it cleans. You never get all that dirty water off the floor with a mop,steamer, or even on my hands and knees. Like I said b4, That dirty water was bad.
