I received the Hoover CleanSlate Pet Spot Cleaner as a part of a recent Bzz Campaign. As a mom to two sweet pups, I was extremely excited to receive the product for our household. Our home's flooring is 75 percent carpet, including our stairs, so keeping it clean can be a challenge. The Hoover Spot Cleaner is much easier and more effective to use than a traditional carpet cleaner on the stairs. The compact size makes the cleaner easy to carry and hold, and the long hose makes it easy to reach a large surface area. After a rainy day, the cleaner did a great job cleaning muddy prints from our living room carpet. It was convenient to clean these spots quickly, easily and without having to drag out our clunky full-size cleaner. I was impressed by this machine, and I would highly recommend it to anyone with furry kids!
