The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is the carpet cleaner for people who need serious cleaning power, without all the extras and high price associated with the more expensive carpet cleaners. For small homes or for those folks who simply need to shampoo high traffic areas from time.
Even though this model is designed for less frequent, smaller area cleaning, that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t pack a serious punch. With its 7.1 amp motor, the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner easily out-powers some of the larger, more expensive carpet cleaners that are available these days. And with the high velocity suction power that all Hoover carpet cleaners are famous for, this model is well equipped to deal with even the most stubborn stains and ground in dirt.

Read the rest of the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner Review review:

Features
Motor/Amps
The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is powered by a durable 7.1 amp motor. That high power output helps to make this model a more powerful cleaner than many of the top selling carpet cleaners from other manufacturers. There are even some Hoover models that don’t have as much power as this carpet cleaner possesses.

Water tanks
The best carpet cleaners are built with dual tanks. This helps to keep the dirty water separate from the clean water and cleaning solution. And the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner lives up to its reputation of being a high end carpet cleaner by featuring dual tank technology. Both tanks are 1 gallon in capacity and easy to remove for quick cleaning, easy filling and mess free emptying.

Brushes
To power away the most ground in dirt and stains the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner uses a row of high powered scrubbing brushes. These brushes move in counter scrubbing rotation patterns to attack dirt and stains from multiple angles. The final result is carpet fibers that are cleaner and fresher than ever before.

Indicators
One feature that is lacking on the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is water or brush indicators. However, many of the best selling carpet cleaners do not have these types of indicators or gauges, so it’s not a huge disappointment to not see them on this model. It’s actually easy to see how much water is in the tank simply by watching it now and then as you clean your carpet. The tanks are transparent enough that you will quickly know when it’s time to add more water and cleaning solution.

Hose
The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner has no hose for external cleaning attachments. While higher priced carpet cleaners often feature hoses for upholstery, this model is more stripped down and meant for cleaning carpets only.

Cord
The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner, like many of the most popular carpet cleaners, has a 20 foot power cord. This cord gives you enough length to easily clean most rooms or hallways without having to unplug and find a new power outlet. If you have large rooms and hallways, though, you may have to use an extension cord to get all the cord length that you need.
Attachments

As was previously mentioned, the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is for cleaning carpets only. Thus, there are no attachments to use on furniture or even for the crevices of your carpeted areas. The absence of attachments does have a bright side, though. Since there are none, you don’t have to worry about them falling off during use or losing them altogether.
Dimensions

The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is one of the most compact carpet cleaners on the market today. Measuring in with dimensions of 18 x 11 x 45 inches, this carpet cleaner does not take up excessive space in your closet or garage when it is not in use.
Weight

This model is very lightweight and easy to maneuver. Weighing in at just 22 pounds, it is very easy to lift this carpet cleaner up to take upstairs.

Controls
Being as the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is pretty much a basic carpet cleaner, it features very intuitive controls. There is a toe-touch power switch that allows you to easily turn the unit on and off. On the handle there is a trigger to spray out cleaning solution and hot water.

Cleaning Process
Using the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner couldn’t be any simpler. To clean your carpets, you simply fill the clean water tank with the right mixture of hot water and cleaning solution. Once the tank is filled, you power the unit on with the easy to reach toe-tap power switch. Your next step is to go over small area of carpet, while holding in the trigger to deliver cleaning solution. After that, you make a slow pass or two over the same area and allow the scrubbers and suction nozzle to do their jobs. When you’re done, simply let the carpet dry for a bit and you are done.

Uses
The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner should be used only on carpeted areas. This model is not meant to clean drapery, upholstered furniture or hard flooring surfaces.

Belts
Unlike many of the other best selling carpet cleaners, you don’t have to install or replace any belts with the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner.

Cleaning Solution
Hoover recommends using only their 2X ProPlus line of carpet cleaning solutions with the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner.
Warranty
The Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner is backed by a one year full manufacturer’s warranty.
Pros
    It is very lightweight and easy to maneuver.
    With minimal controls, this carpet cleaner is very easy for anyone to use.
    The scrubbing brushes do a great job of breaking up ground in dirt and stains.
    The high powered suction sucks up nearly all the moisture, so less drying time is needed post-cleaning.
Cons
    No hose or attachments for cleaning upholstery.
    This model does not seem to be as durable as other Hoover carpet cleaners.
    The cord is a manual wind cord and can be a pain to wrap up after every use.

Consumer Ratings
With customer reviews posted online by over a dozen real life customers, the Hoover F5810 SteamVac Carpet Cleaner has so far earned a 3.4 out of 5.0 star customer satisfaction rating. And while that is not the highest score that any Hoover carpet cleaner has received, it does reflect a high level of customer satisfaction. And considering the lower price range of this particular model, and the lack of cleaning attachments, it’s easy to see why this model remains a perpetual best seller and popular pick for customers in search of serious carpet cleaning power.
