Description
Hoover SmartWash Essentials Automatic Carpet Cleaner (FACSCW23L)
The Hoover SmartWash Essentials (model FACSCW23L) is a full-size upright carpet washer with Hoover’s automatic cleaning technology. Push forward to wash and pull back to dry. The motion-sensing design does the switching, and HeatForce™ helps carpets dry faster. With a 1200W motor, a 3.8L clean water tank and a 2.1L dirty water tank, it’s made for family homes, pets and everyday spills. Hoover lists a 3-year motor warranty.
Push to Clean, Pull to Dry
Auto Clean motion sensing takes the guesswork out: push forward to wash and pull back to dry, with no triggers or buttons to hold.
Auto Dry and Dry Only Mode with HeatForce™
Pulling back extracts the water from your carpet. For even faster drying, finish with Dry Only mode, which uses HeatForce™ with powerful extraction.
FlexForce™ PowerBrushes
The FlexForce™ PowerBrushes gently remove deep dirt, debris and pet messes from carpet and rugs.
Dual Tank System
A 3.8L clean water tank and a separate 2.1L dirty water tank keep clean and dirty water apart, so you wash with clean water the whole time.
Hose and Upholstery Tool
The 2.4m extension hose and upholstery tool reach tight spots, stairs, sofas and car seats.
Easy to Keep Clean
The nozzle comes off in one step, so you can rinse the machine clean after each use.
