Your turbine went bad on the Hoover, fairly inexpensive part to replace. That will have your brushes running like new!

About two years ago I bought a Hoover Spin-Scrub from a local vac dealer. I was one of the last Ohio made models, however, I would have had no problem what-so-ever purchasing a Rug Doctor.
In fact when I went to the Vac shop the Rug Doctor was on my list. I just couldn't justify the $600 or so for a machine that I use maybe every 3-4 months. Even with my brother and I sharing it as we had planned, it was an expense.
I have an older Big Green Clean Machine, one of the old cans that is straight suction that has served me well. I looked at the Royal and liked it well enough, was steered strongly away from the Bissel Pro-heat as troublesome and expensive to repair. But in the end I opted for the Hoover and have no regrets. Ok one regret, I wish the tanks were bigger. I know if they were bigger it would weigh more, but I wouldn't have to fill and empty so often.

Mine's with the Power Brush like this. The only things I need is a upholstery tool & wand; everything else works fine.
I HATE that parts for this machine are so hard to find!

in my collection I have a rug dr wide track,3 hoover spin scrubs, and a 8 gallon profeshional heated box carpet extractor with a drag wand. all work great if used for the correct job. it also helps too use comerical grade cleaning products. they have less water in them and you can dilute them down and have a lower cost per usage. the only issue I have had with my hoover spin scrubs is the tool that is for cleaning stairs or furnature seems too have a sticky trigger button and quits spraying after a few years. the rug dr does move a fair amount of water but if you go over the rug a few more times until almost no water comes into the recovery dome. my big 8 gallon machine needs two seperate circuts too run, two vacuum motors and high pressure pump and heater love too pop breakers. it does a great job at cutting the heavy grime and 200 degree water it cleans quick and helps in drying out the carpet.
