Fixing Carpet Cleaner
I have a hoover carpet cleaner I have used for about 5-8 years. it breaks
frequently and I need a new place for parts because the last one seems to be out of business. Does anyone know a website to get hoover carpet cleaner parts so I can keep fixing this thing. Or maybe a better brand that is not plactic junk that will last a bit longer? Or should I try taking it into the local store? The unit only cost about $200. Thanks! dnoyeB |

Fixing Carpet Cleaner
Apparently these thing hold up well on shorter type carpets but die an early
death on shags. You could buy a Rug Docter unit which are normally rented out. There is sales contact info on the rental units.
