I used the Hoover PowerDash on multiple light-colored 8X10 area rugs around my home and was really impressed with how much deep-set dirt & soil this compact cleaner pulled up. We have cats, and we also have the area rugs in high foot traffic areas of our home. After about 2 1/2 years of just using a regular vacuum on our rugs, I noticed the gray & cream colors were looking dingy. There were also a few faint stains on our family room rug from normal living wear & tear.
I ordered this PowerDash based on positive reviews, and I am really glad I did. For the liquid formula I poured into the cleaner, I used the Bissel Pro Max Clean & Protect liquid formula for Upright Carpet Cleaners, and poured it in this Hoover Power Dash Upright Pet Carpet Cleaner with warm water, following the instructions that come with the Hoover Power Dash Cleaner. After one cleaning, my rugs look completely revived. My husband and I were shocked at how much dirt was in the rugs that we did not even realize. The Cleaner also lifted the faded stains, some that had been set for a good 2 years. I forgot how bright my rugs originally were!
The PowerDash cleaner is lightweight and easy to assemble & to use. I also found it relatively easy to clean out the dirty water container. It just requires you to dump the dirty water and then you may have to pull out a few clumps of carpet fiber that the cleaner lifts because of the strong suction.
A few tips: definitely use warm water, and go slowly when pushing & pulling the Cleaner during use. The clean water/formula tank is small, so I had to fill it twice to clean the full surface of one 8X10 area rug. The process of filling the water/formula tank is really easy so it is not a big deal, but I would recommend buying an extra bottle of the liquid cleaner to have on hand for cleaning if you plan to clean larger surface areas.
All but one of our rugs were brand new 2 1/2 years ago when we moved into our home. The new thicker rugs all washed up really well and felt soft & fresh after the cleaning. The only advice I would give is to be careful with older or more delicate rugs. The suction of the carpet cleaner is strong, so it does suck up carpet fibers. We have one hall rug that is a little older/thinner, and the carpet fibers on that rug were a little delicate/brittle for the suction of the PowerDash. The rug is clean after use, but you can almost see where some of the fibers on this older rug were thinned out from the cleaning. But on all of our newer, thicker rugs, the cleaner sucked up the dirt & soil beautifully and left the rugs feeling really soft and clean.
Overall, super pleased with this purchase. I am impressed with how powerful this cleaner is for something so lightweight and relatively inexpensive compared with other cleaners.

It does a great job!
I moved into an apartment 6 months ago. The carpets already smelled like cat urine and wet wood chips. After 6 months with a toddler and old dog that apparently forgets he's supposed to potty outside the carpets were horrid. Smelled disgusting, looked disgusting. So I searched for a good carpet cleaner on a budget and came across this gem. The pictures do it no justice! It took all the dirt, nasty stains, stench, spills right out! I was completely amazed. I've used carpet cleaners before and it's always been eh but after using this. No stains, no stink I put some fabric softener in with the water and now my whole apartment actually smells amazing for the first time! Highly recommend. If you're doubting or questioning it definitely go for this. The only downsides are since it is a compact the tanks are a bit small so you do have to dump and refill quite a few times for an entire room, but since it's a compact it doesn't take up a ton of space which is great for apartment life. The right wheel did pop off mine after completing the living room but you can stick it back in to keep going and they're sending a replacement for free just sending this one back. Wish I would have bought this years ago! My dog is old and tends to urinate inside now I've been hand scrubbing it up forever this magical machine would have been amazing to have for cleaning it up all those times quick easy and no nasty smell left behind.

It was lightweight and super easy to assemble and use. Everything clicked in and took a total of two minutes to put together. No tools necessary.
I read the reviews before and agree it a little loud but no louder than the vacuum. It will take a couple days to fully dry and because it’s lightweight and small the tanks are small. I had to refill and empty quite a bit. It comes with a small bottle of cleaner but buy the jug. You’ll need more. Also, pay close attention to the markings on the tank. You will be tempted to add more soap, resist the temptation. The suds will hard to manage and when you refill it will foam up.
I would buy it again in a heartbeat. I would recommend it to anyone. Great buy. Great product.
My only beef was that it didn’t get into the corners but would still buy it again.
