CLOSED. Giveaway: Hoover Floormate Vacuum

By

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

I heard about the Hoover Floormate about a year ago.  A friend of mine was telling me she cleans her bathroom floors in 5 minutes with the Floormate and how much she loved it.

When Hoover contacted me to review the Floormate I jumped.  Literally.  And then waited at the door for 2 weeks until it arrived.  Finally my little box of heaven arrived and I tested it out that same day.  We have a lot of carpet in our house but the kitchen floor and I are arch rivals.  We have linoleum floors and a 1 year old baby that prefers to throw her meals on the floor than actually eat them.

So the kitchen floor is filthy basically 100% of the time.  Now the floormate is designed for hard floors and it has 3 features- it can vacuum the floor (no sweeping needed!) and then scrub the floor and then it dries them for you!

So I tested the power of this baby by letting Maya have her way with the floor for 2 days.  Usually I am scrubbing away after every meal so the floor under her highchair was pretty bad.  I found the Floormate did an amazing job.  It vacuumed all the little crumbs up perfectly.  The scrub feature got most of the stuff off the floor but I still had to scrub a tiny bit myself to get everything up.  To be fair, Maya had thrown several tomato slices on the floor so there were seeds and things that were a little much for the Floormate.  It did get nearly all of her mess up though and I am guessing normal people won’t have quite the level of mess that I have.  The Floormate does allow you to use a trigger to concentrate the soap into certain spots and there are rotating brushes that work to get it all up.  This baby will get your floors really clean and it is nice and easy to use.  Then just switch it to dry and viola- the floors are all done!!

We have had the Floormate for about a week and I can tell you our floors are cleaner than they have ever been.  I typically vacuum the kitchen once per day and that keeps everything crumb free.  Then I do a scrub every other day- it is pretty simple to do.  Overall I have really loved this machine.  If you have hardwood floors I could see this making your life a lot easier.   For sure it makes cleaning the kitchen and bathrooms so much easier and honestly I think it is cleaner than using a broom and mop.

The Floormate runs on scratch free rubber wheels and has 2 tanks- one for clean water and one for dirty.  You will easily see how much dirt this baby picks up and you don’t have to worry about dumping more dirty water onto the floor when you are cleaning.

This sells for about $149 and you can purchase the Floormate from Target.com for $149.00 with free shipping!

    The chore I hate the most … Is cleaning up after my cats … I can’t ever seem to get the cat hair up all the way … It really seems to collect on the floor … This would really help me out tons!

  13. Lauren says

    There are alot of chores I avoid – unloading the dishwasher and folding laundry are probably tops on the list.

  17. Melissa says

    Basically all housework, but if i had to pick one thing it would be the bathrooms.

  20. Traci says

    I follow you on facebook and subscribe. I dislike alot of chores around the house but if I had to choose one I would say the bathrooms. It would be awesome for a chance to win this. We have twins so we are constantly cleaning the floors.Thanks

  21. Nicole says

    Where our table sits next to the kitchen is on carpet, so anything we eat somehow gets on the carpet. So I must say the kitchen floor is my least favorite place to clean.

  23. Becky says

    I hate cleaning up the kitchen floors too! Something about the dried on food from my 11 mo son- icky!! Would love to try this Hoover — thanks for the giveaway!

    It’s a toss up for my least favorite chore between bathrooms and doing my floors. I have a lot of hardwood and I really don’t like when it’s time to mop them all:)

  41. JAMIE V says

    The bathroom toliet is the worst chore, I have 2 boys who are messy, so I’m cleaning up in there every other day. I love the idea of a vaccum that can also scrub up dried spills or food for easy kitchen cleanup.

  42. Amy Newsom says

    I’m a fan on facebook. I would love this vacuum. I have a 4 yr old and a big dog. Kitchen floors are always dirty.

  43. Amy Newsom says

    My least favorite chore is cleaning the hardwood floors and the kitchen floors.

  44. Maria says

    We just moved into a house with all hardwood floors. My least favorite chore is trying to get all the floors clean in one day. I wouldn’t mind testing this vacuum out.

  45. deborahc says
