As Borat would say "very nice"
This thing is loud, but it works. If there's a weakness, it's that the dry vacuum doesn't seem to do too well. But that's what a good sweeping is for, isn't it? I have linoleum, and the H3044 did a fine job. The cleaning solution was pretty filthy when I poured it out after use, both satisfying and repulsive at the same time! It seems that this is a new Hoover model (July 2007), which explains why there are not a lot of reviews to be found online. I wish it could use Pine-Sol, because I ha...

Cleans great!
Cleans great and uses 3 containers of water/cleaner solution (about half a bucket)for: 2 rooms, 1 kitchen, 2 living rooms. The cord is long enough. I used half of the cleaner, 1oz, and it works fine. At first I did not know why the water wasn't coming out and then I found I wasn't pulling the trigger below the handle. It's nice to see all the dirty water and sediment off your floors. This product really saves your back from traditional mopping and it is nice to know you are not reusing dirt...

I LOVE THIS FLOORMATE! :0
This Hoover H3044 Floormate is absolutely wonderful! My vinyl floor has never been this clean. It was cleaned the day before I used the Floormate using another appliance. I could not believe how dirty and gray the water in the "dirty tank" was. I did vacuum my floor first using my regular Bissell hard floor vacuum. I did not want to use the FloorMate's vacuum feature coz one is supposed to empty the dirty tank and then replace it after vacuuming. It just seemed easier to use my lightweight ...

Love it, love it, love it
When you have 5 pets - one of whom has a bladder control problem - and you have both laminated hardwood and tile floors, there had to be something better than a mop or my carpet cleaner to get my the floors clean. WELL, THIS IS IT! It's so easy to use. The three settings allow you to quickly switch between wash, dry, or dry vac. It's lightweight, puts out just the right amount of water, sucks it up fast, and does a great job. When my older dog would have an accident, we would use the dry va...

Tile Floors
Well, I would love to say that this floor scrubber cleans all the grout between the tiles, but I can't. Using the grout cleaner, it is adequate, but one really needs to use the grout scrubber attachment (and more elbow grease) to see any real grout cleaning. Guess I don't like to spend the time going over and over the grout with that little attachment; might as well get on my knees and scrub. But, it beats mopping, and all other forms of floor cleaners. It is easy to use, does clean the tiles, d...

Love the Floor Cleaner
I had read mixed reviews for this cleaner, so I just decided to buy it and try it myself. I really am impressed. I have read that the dry vac is not as good, but I think it picks up small particles, like crumbs, just fine. You have to just sweep up bigger things like cheerios. I hate to sweep and mop, and I would go weeks before I would finally get out the broom and mop. I will tell you I now clean my floors at least twice a week. I like to vacuum and so the floor mate is easy like vacuumin...

Better Than a Bucket and Mop!
One year ago, we replaced all the carpeting in our home with textured vinyl. We did this because we have and love our animals; three dogs an four cats. During that year I have lugged a bucket and mop from room to room cleaning the floor. About 2 months ago I decided to try the Hoover FloorMate. I do not use the recommended cleaning liquid but prefer to use a weak white vinegar solution (half the measuring cup full per filling). Although the machine is not perfect, in my opionion it is so far ...

No More Hands and Knees Floor cleaning...YEAH!
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This is a nice machine that does a very good job. Best part is I don't have to be on my hands and knees cleaning my ceramic kitchen floor anymore. Just wait till you see the dirty water return after use. UGH!! I'm so glad I bought this machine.
1) Easy to put together...instructions were clear and everything fit.
2) There are 2 brush choices for different cleaning. ...

Pros and Cons
I'm a bit torn on this product. There are things I really like and things that are a bit disappointing. I thought it might be easiest to list the plusses and the minuses separately...
CONS:
* In order to get our tile as clean as possible, it seems like I have to move the machine extremely slowly when both washing and wet vaccuming. I have a lot of ceramic tile in my home, so it is a big job. When I have the patience and time (which isn't often with two toddlers running around...

Love it!
This is a fantastic product! I bought it three months ago, and have been very pleased with its performance. A couple of tips if you are planning on getting one:
1. Use a real vac first. The dry vac performance of this item is not stellar. It's good for picking up small amounts of dust, but anything more than that will be a problem. Plus, the dirt goes into the same cup as the waste water, making cleanup more work.
2. Let the clean water sit for a bit on the floor. Press the...
