| Rug Shampooer My Hoover Agility just broke. It was only 2 years old and I probably used it less than 20 times. It is going to cost too much to have it repaired. Any suggestions- less than $200 would be ideal. Thanks!

| We have the Bissel Pro-heat - love, love, love it. Not sure how much? We've had it about 5 years. One part broke a couple years ago - but we were able to get a replacement and hubby fixed it.

| I love my Hoover Steam Vac. Check out the prices at Amazon.com.Amazon.com: carpet cleaner I have had several different kinds over the years, but nothing cleaned as well or seems to last as long as this one has.

| I paid $200 for the Agility. I expected it to last longer. I cannot afford a Rug Doctor. Plus, I live in a row home. The Rug Doctor is probably bigger than my house.

I absolutely love my Bissell Spot Bot, too. Since Lady is a diabetic, she has accidents when her sugar is too high. I treat the area with Natures Miracle and use my Spot Bot after it dries. It's amazing! | |

| I truly believe Hoover products are very inferior. I bought a brand new vacuum wind tunnel and after 6 months, I put it on the curb and put a free sign on it. I have a Kenmore now and it's a wonderful vacuum, BUT, if I had know how often you have to change that expensive filter, I would not have bought it. For a carpet cleaner, I'd have to go with Bissel. |

| We just purchased a steam cleaner today........ decided that instead of getting the carpets professionally cleaned 2-3 times a year, we would have it done once a year and then do it ourselves in between. I purchased a hoover at Walmart. Hopefully it will do what we need it to......... we don't have any MAJOR carpet problems as far as stains, but once in awhile we have an "oops" and it would be good to do an "overall" cleaning in addition to the spot cleaning.
