Your supposed 2 use scrub mode 1st THEN use VACUUM mode (on hard floors only) Unless someone used the vac mode on carpet & clogged the inlet with carpet lint OR used it as a dry vac. Does the switch work w/o problems? | ||

Vacuum mode to be used 4 WET pickup only! Only when washing bare floor with WATER-BASED cleaners; NOT 2 be used when shampooing rugs & cleaning hard floors with SOLVENT type cleaners. | ||

the underside guess the strip in the front with the rubber is the vac? GUESS I will have to try it... I took out some fuzz from that area could have a blockage?

it won't pick up water from a rug? That's what I need it for. Arrrgh will have to try to get store credit Why if it says wet vac isn;t it a wet vac there were some fibers in that area & the the inside the container is tacky so not sure what they used in it... Should I just return it? | ||

Switch works fine Don't like the type though as it seems to me it would be a problem. You have to slide it left or right then move it down. I have no history of the machine but when I put water in the tank to clean it there is a sticky residue. | ||

Cleaned the tank & gave it a spin on my carpet The hoover scrub vac really cleans the rug nice did most of my apartment effortlessly might just have to keep it its quiet & itleav es the nap fluffy & its not too wet so it really has not much you could even extract... So were these late 80's? | ||

Id keep her
With some clean-up she should do well, and replacement brushes are still avaiable.These Scrub N Vacs are kinda hard to come by, at least around here,but then again so is everything else lol. Ive tried to get one from the bay but I refuse to go over 100$ even for a vintage one unless its mint. Just my 25 cents :) Ken | ||
