Hoover FloorMate - Hard Floor Cleaner Vacuum - H3032 Review

I found my Hoover Floormate Plus at a thrift store, of all places!  I had seen them in the stores and really wanted one but couldn't justify the price tag over my apparent hate for the mop.  So, for $5 we brought it home, took it apart and cleaned it, and then I ventured onto the linoleum to test this thing out.  Holy cow!  It was awesome!!

I have linoleum and two kinds of ceramic tile flooring in my house.  It cleans both great.  Linoleum more so than the tile, but the people who grouted our tile did it too shallow so I don't really think it is the machines fault for not reaching the grout in all areas!  I have used many different concentrated cleaners in the solution and all clean great.  Even plain vinegar works just fine.

I have had the Floormate for over a year now and I cannot imagine life before this machine!  I have 2 bones that are broken in my lower back and this makes it so easy to clean my floors.  The most lifting you have to do is picking up the small receptacle that holds the dirty water.  But even completely full it weighs very little.

I have 7 cats and 3 children who definitely dirty up my floors pretty quickly.  I love that this machine scrubs off dried on food off my floors for me!  I don't have to bend over and use any elbow grease to remove jelly or dried spaghetti sauce.  It's wonderful...and now that I know how useful it is, I will definitely buy another if this one bites the dust.  But so far so great!
