Hoover H3045 Floormate Spinscrub January 2, 2009 Tammi Howard I live out in the country with five dogs and a lot of dirt. I am kind of a clean freak and have been very frustrated with using just a regular mop on my tile floor. The mop would not get the floor clean. I bought the Hoover Tile Scrubber and love it! I read both positive an negative reviews prior to purchasing the scrubber. Some people complained that the scrubber left some water on the floor. Yes it does but so does a mop! The scrubber does not leave very much water on the floor, just small streaks every once in a while. My floor felt wonderful under my bare feet after I used it. I do have a couple complaints: You can find the same scrubber for $50 less at Costco. The collection tank fills way too quickly and if you have a lot of tile like I do, you can find yourself dumping it 5-8 times. This causes you to use a lot of the cleaner which comes in a pretty small bottle.
Beats mopping any day December 27, 2008 Rincon (Franklin, WI United States) I hate mopping, and this thing takes the cake. No complaints...no problems. Leave the floor squeaky clean and virtually dry.
Works well, questionable longevity October 30, 2008 tangent (Houston, TX United States) Just picked up one of these machines today, it works very well but feels cheaply made. The body is made out of flimsy lightweight plastic. One reviewer noted that the vacuum feels heavy but in fact it is very lightweight when empty. It does however feel heavy when you use it because the suction is so powerful it creates alot of friction. The machine is definitely not underpowered, lets just hope the motors are sturdier than the plastic exterior!
One thing to note is that to really get a good cleaning with no residue you have to move quite slowly and methodically, this is not necessarily a flaw with this product but is just due to the nature of wet vacuuming, either way it is certainly much faster than mopping or scrubbing by hand.
Pros: * Powerful motor, strong enough to suck the dirt out of the crevices in porous natural stones such as tumbled marble and travertine * Deep clean, works with most types of cleaning solution * Doesn't scratch my hardwoods * Long power cord
Cons: * Flimsy plastic body * Questionable longevity * Dirty reservoir could be a bit larger
Overall, I'd say the pros outweigh the cons, it will save you a lot of time if you are somewhat anal about having clean floors like I am.

This machine performs as though it has been refurbished, although I purchased it as a new machine. The recovery tank never completely fills to allow the automatic suction shut-off to activate. The reason I believe, is because the dirty water leaks on the tile floor when the recovery tank is about half full. Another problem or "feature" is that the machine is impossible to move when the tiles are dry. Is this deliberately designed, or is it a defect? This is the second time that I've used this machine, and I'm tempted to use a mop the next time. At least the floor appears clean enough to overcome the frustrations.
Cleans tile well, but don't expect miracles with grouting October 13, 2008 David Duncan (Phoenix) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have used the Floormate for 6 months and it cleans our tile floors well. It limits the yucky build up of dirt and soap that darkens grout but the Floormate (and really no household machine) can clean grout -- hand scrubbing is the only remedy for this problem. Because I do not like to leave a soap residue on my floors, I spray my floors first with a floor cleaner (I use one of the enzyme pet cleaners because I have four dogs) and I place clean water in the Floormate's tank and use that to rinse away the cleaner I sprayed on the floor. Finally, the machine does a nice job of removing the residual water on the floor.
