I would stay clear away from this one, i have had 2 of these and they were brand new and both of them did the same thing and the problem is with the solution and water tank. The side that you put the carpet cleaning solution just stops working. It will no longer let out any carpet cleaner under where the scrubbing rollers are located. Be warned.
This is good anecdotal experience. Good reason to be cautious.

One thought I have is that $53 shipped to my door is less than a single rental of a carpet extractor at Home Depot. How many times would you say you were able to use yours before they broke? Because honestly for what this costs and how often I would use an item like this it might be worth it anyway even if I know it is a throwaway item.
Yep, not much has changed I guess... had an older Hoover upright rug cleaner and I had the same damn problem. In fact, there were so many problems with the water/detergent canister, that Hoover replaced mine free under warranty and it STILL ended up with same issue shortly after I installed new canister. The only rug cleaners that have been bullet proof have been those little Bissell Green Machines and that old fashioned big block looking scrubber they rent out - that Rug Doctor brand. Costco had actually sold them in-store at one time.

Fair enough... that's very quick turnaround being able to list them and sell then in one day.

Haters gonna hate

That's 2 free vacuums and shop vac and carpet cleaner for literally doing nothing but flipping 3 units to pay for my buys

The guy said a chic bought 60 vacuums for reselling. I would of, but couldn't fit more than 5 in my car ): peasant life

It's all mental. BRB get item at 50, take screenshot of msrp at Best Buy target amazon of 220 ish

Toss on fb for half off, put fake thing saying bought never opened half off

People run for this shit

I don't give receipts for anything except ps5's
They don't need them. Ps5 people know how much you pay so no reason not to give to them

I bought a used Hoover carpet cleaner (wide head, plus upholstery attachment) almost 20 years ago. It still works. Only thing is the plastic hose to the upholstery attachment cracked - but I was able to tape it and it works fine. (I rarely use the upholstery attachment, so not a big deal.)

I don't know if they're made as well now, but if they are, this is a steal. (I think I paid $50 or $75 for the used one 20 years ago.)

I only have 1 small room right now with carpet, but I never plan to get rid of the machine - I might buy a different house with some carpet (at least for a while; my general inclination is to get rid of carpet).

As an FYI: I don't use shampoo in the machine. Water alone really cleans well. It might be a different story if you have a lot of people, kids especially, tracking in mud, with carpet right at the door, but shoes have always been removed at the door in my house.

Thanks, OP! This is a tremendous deal!
I have a much older model from Hoover that I bought used on ebay 16 years ago for $75 plus shipping, which was a great deal back then. It's still going strong. The only reason I'm buying another one is because I accidentally broke the hose attachment for the furniture/stairs tool (I accidentally melted it with an iron!). Honestly, I'd probably pay $40 for the attachment, never mind an upgraded machine, especially since this newer model uses hot air to help dry the carpet quicker. Maybe I'll sell the old one on craigslist or facebook marketplace.

It's 69 on site
But it's a legit awesome vac and comes 2 batteries
Full 3 year warranty

This is nice for a stick for house imo
Does it work like a normal vacuum too or just carpet cleaner with the solution?

Wait, you bought 5 of these, just yesterday, and have ALREADY listed and sold 3 of them @ $100 in one evening? Three people have already picked them up and paid you on $100 each... in one day? I'm assuming you didn't sell them on eBay, but sold them locally, right?
People lie...it is kinda weird they do it online, yet they still do it.

I don't trust anything that is too automatic. That one has no trigger at all and is supposed to do it auto forward and dry in reverse. Naaaah.

Just went back to direct tools to get more things to flip.
Will post up my couple items in a bit

Got these for 36 each. The 25% sale is over but they give 10% military.

Have a slight variation of this model, and the impeller rusted on it. About to spend $40 on a new impeller assembly, but this looks identical, so might as well just get a like new one for about the same price!
These do require some care after use to keep them running. Make sure you run them after they dry out to keep the innards dry.

Same issue with the previous generation model that I have. But it isn't rocket science for a work around especially for this kind of savings. IF you have this problem and it isn't worth the effort of warranty repair service then you just pre mix a couple ounces of cleaner solution into the fresh water tank with each fill up. This was the standard procedure for these less expensive cleaners at one time.

I've had the FH50258 for a little over 4 years and never had an issue. Not sure mechanically what's different as the msrp's are a $60 difference. Rented a bissel big green before I had this and honestly can't tell any difference from a cleaning perspective but it definitely doesn't dry as quickly. Home Depot has it for $129 https://www.homedepot.com/p/HOOVE.../304894345 right now which seems like a decent deal for a reliable carpet cleaner. My wife loans it out to everyone and nobody has complained or broken it yet.
