I have one from 2005 when Hoover was still owned Maytag and they were American Made. A full 12 amp!

I don’t know what it is about the sound of the Maytag motors but I love it. I have a 2003 Hoover SteamVac F5914-900 and it’s basically like brand new. Carbon brushes are extremely long. I prefer that American sound but those Ametek ones in the Mexico models are pretty decent

I cannot believe Hoover would discontinue their classic upright carpet cleaner called the “SteamVac” and replace it with this piece of junk model that I am not fond of. Luckily I have an old Hoover SteamVac Plus 1200 from 1998 or 1999 and thank god it still works and it’s still cleaning my house.

The only difference between the models is the motors were once American Maytag made, they changed to Chinese and it’s quieter. The build quality is Chinese instead of American, though it’s just as solid.

I’ve seen comparisons in pickup performance in new and old Hoover vacuums and carpet cleaners. Not only are the new Chinese machines inferior, they don’t perform near as well! Find an old stock motor to put in it because the Chinese motors are crap.

They were killed off because of the lack of sales and the old design of these. Plus getting parts for these are extreme hard now. I really want the newest steam vac they have honestly but it’s hard to find. I got a 09 model that’s blue with the older spin scrub brush attachment

I can tell you they are not as well made but they work really well...mine is 3 years old. It's a turbo scrub from home depot and I got it for $90 on a lucky day... brand new in box. But when I'm done using it... I take all the steps to keep it going.. take everything apart, wash it, brushes out, tilt machine back and put everything in front of a fan for hours to dry... try not to lift it by the handle... and HOPE for the best. LOL

Ventilate Yes, and it started in ‘93 actually. Hose had to be bought separately until ‘98 or ‘99 when it was built in. The built in hoses were normal until 2010 ish, since then you’ve had to manually attach it. They nolonger make that built in hose.

Jasmine 👸🏾 I have not used one or seen one in the vacuum shop with which I am employed. Yes it works well, but you need to make sure to not move fast. That commercial one has a lower amperage motor, so it sounds like the original Steamvac series, still pretty powerful though. Does not come with a hose I don’t think, but you can get one and use it since it has the spot where you plug it in and use it.

I’ve had this style for years but they always end up leaking from the clean water tank. The thing that goes up and down to let water out starts falling out and releasing entire tanks of clean water. Tired of fixing the same thing over andover.
