I purchased this steamvac based on research on the internet and reading the reviews on Amazon. This was my first purchase of a carpet cleaner. Actually, I don’t think any one from my family has ever purchased a carpet cleaner.

I’ve always rented carpet cleaners. Like most people I got tired of the costly rental. The return trip to the store after a hard day of work cleaning carpet is not fun either.

My folks hired professionals to clean their carpet last year. They charged $150 for about 800 square feet of cleaning. They didn’t do a great job either. I figured this machine would pay for itself with one use.

I took the machine to my parents house and we took about 3.5 hours to clean the carpet and another hour to clean the floor tile. I was very careful to clean well since the carpet was so dirty. We pre-cleaned heavy traffic areas with Zep Heavy Traffic Carpet Cleaner (spot cleaner) using a hand brush. We also used the Zep Professional Carpet shampoo. Both can be purchased at Home Depot. The spot cleaner cost about $4 for a small can. The shampoo cost $13 for a large 128 oz bottle. You can easily clean a 3000 sq ft house with a single 128 oz shampoo.

The machine, spot cleaner, and HOT BOILING water did their job. The carpet was clean. The hallway between the bedrooms and both took the longest because of the heavy traffic. I used a lot of the spot cleaner and the result was excellent. There is no need to purchase more expensive chemicals.

We used Pinesoil to clean the tile. Use only half of the measuring cup that comes with the steamvac.

The plastic container that holds the cleaning solution and water contains a cap that doubles as a measuring cup for the shampoo. It contains two lines. I used the top (highest) line for carpet cleaning. I used the lower line for floor cleaning.

I also used the inluded attachment to clean my car’s interior. It did a great job. It’s a little messy but the results are good. I parked it in the hot s

Garmin Portable Friction Mount works great. No more marks on the windshield. Only draw back is the weight/size.
No all that easy to stick in a bag and take it with you. But fine for swapping from one car to another.
The true philosophy of

This unit is great for small areas like closets, utility rooms, small bathrooms, etc. As another reviewer mentioned, a larger unit is needed for medium to large sized rooms. I most recently used the unit in a hallway, just outside of the room where the cat’s litter box is located, to keep any odor from drifting to the rest of the house, and it worked very well. The filters always seemed to last longer than I expected them to, so I really feel that I get my money’s worth.

This watch will change the way you train for running. Whether you are heart rate training in the gym or running random trails outdoors, the Forerunner will function in whatever role you need it too. Every function the watch can do can be added or removed from your display screen in large or small text. It includes a “Virtual Partner” that can use your previous run times to improve your own performance. I can’t recommend this GPS watch enough for both experienced and amateur runners alike. I was torn between the 405 and 305 but I’m very happy with the 305. It’s far cheaper and the display is big enough to fit a lot of information on it an make it big enough to read while running. You won’t be sorry you bought this tool!

I read lots of reviews about lots of vacuums before purchasing this vacuum. I was hoping it was as good as everyone said, and I was not disappointed!! It was very reasonably priced, and does a great job! I have owned several canisters and bagless vacs. I am partial to canisters because of the ease in reaching under things. But this one has a low profile, so it does a pretty good job reaching the places I need to reach. And the first time I started, I found out quickly that I had better have a firm grip on the handle- the power head will pull the thing right out of your hand and the vac will take off on its own across the floor. Sound-wise, it is really not any louder than most of my previous vacs, and quieter than the Fantom Fury I just retired. I read that the power head will throw dirt around on tile and wood floors. I mainly have carpet, so I haven’t experienced this yet. Seems to do OK on the small amount of hard floors I have. We have cats, and with a separate attachment I picked up for this purpose (didn’t come with the vacuum), the vac does a great job picking up cat hair.
The only negatives I have found are:
- Since it is a small vac, the bags are small- so buy extras.
- The cord is a little too short- Be ready to unplug and plug in a lot if you have much space to cover.
- The hose is really short. I think I will be buying an extension hose soon.
- As expected with an inexpensive unit, the attachments are very basic.
In summary, I am very pleased so far. Hopefully it will last long enough for me to get my money’s worth.
