Our take on the Hoover PowerScrub XL Carpet Cleaner 12 Inch

The Hoover PowerScrub XL is a corded electric carpet cleaner with a 12-inch cleaning path, a 0.8-gallon tank and a 23-foot cord. The wider path and larger tank than compact spot cleaners let you cover whole rooms with fewer refills and fewer passes. It suits households with wall-to-wall carpet and rugs that want a full-size machine without paying for premium extras. Against rivals in its class it is a straightforward, brush-and-suction cleaner rather than a heated or self-cleaning model.

Questions and answers

Is the PowerScrub XL good for whole rooms or just spots?
It is built for whole rooms. The 12-inch path and 0.8-gallon tank let you clean large carpeted areas in fewer passes and with fewer refills than a compact spot cleaner.
Does it work on rugs as well as wall-to-wall carpet?
Yes. It is recommended for carpet and rugs. Test on a small hidden area first, since some delicate or natural-fiber rugs should not be wet cleaned.
Do I need to buy cleaning solution separately?
Plan on buying a carpet cleaning solution made for extractors. The machine handles the water and suction; the solution does the cleaning.
How long does the carpet take to dry?
It depends on how many passes you make and the room. Go over the area with suction to pull up excess water, and allow several hours with good airflow before walking on it.
Is it corded or cordless?
It is corded, with a 23-foot cord. You need an outlet nearby, but you never wait on a battery charge.
How does it compare with a compact spot cleaner?
It covers more area per pass and holds more water, so it suits whole rooms. A spot cleaner is lighter and easier to store but needs more refills and more passes.
Where is the Hoover PowerScrub XL Carpet Cleaner 12 Inch cheapest?
At Target, for $169.99, as of our latest check.
