Get Up, Stand Up with the Hoover® FloorMate™
Hard floor cleaner first to deliver better results than old fashioned hands-and-knees scrubbing
Cleveland, Ohio (May 15, 2007) – Buckets and mops, cleaning pads and power mops don’t get hard surface floors as clean as hands-and-knees scrubbing. But why is such a back-breaking method of cleaning the only option for spotless results? It isn’t anymore, thanks to Hoover.
The Hoover® FloorMate™ is the first vac-wash-dry system specially designed to clean hard surface floors, and it’s the only product that gets floors cleaner than even the old fashioned “hands-and-knees” method can.
“Advanced technology is all about getting things done better than we could in the past. With the Hoover FloorMate SpinScrub 800, we made hard surface floor cleaning easier without sacrificing high-quality cleaning standards,” said David Cotsmire, director of product development for Hoover. “The FloorMate delivers the unbeatable clean people have come to expect from Hoover.”
Consumers can clean all their hard surfaces with just one FloorMate – from ceramic tile to laminate, the FloorMate will make all surfaces shine. Equipped with exclusive SpinScrub™ brushes that gently power through the toughest dried-on dirt, the FloorMate does all the hard work while delivering a superior clean for kitchens, bathrooms or any hard surface floor.
The EZ Select™ dial on the FloorMate makes switching between vacuum, wash and dry options natural, so there’s no need to interrupt cleaning. Go from vacuuming, to washing, to drying floors with a turn of the dial.
The dual tank system on the FloorMate keeps cleaning solution and dirty water pick-up separate, so unsanitary water never goes back on the floor. This also stops residue from forming a film on floors dry and prevents the attraction of new dirt and grime build up.
Managing the application of cleaning solution for optimum cleaning results is easy with the FloorMate’s Fingertip Control – just apply a little more solution to break down the toughest dirt, so an impeccable clean is always achieved.
The FloorMate’s 15 inch wide nozzle covers a lot of ground around the home, but for hard to reach spots such as behind the toilet; this machine comes with a telescoping wand and swivel nozzle. With the nozzle attachment, there is no more struggling to clean awkward places – a deep down clean is accomplished no matter the location.
Not only does the FloorMate replace old-fashioned mops and brooms, it makes toothbrushes obsolete in cleaning, too. The FloorMate comes with a Portable Detail Kit that cleans the tightest spaces possible, and you can be sure it does a better job than the tool created with molars in mind. Complete with grout brushes that have specially designed bristles to get out the most stubborn stains, the Portable Detail Kit helps the FloorMate provide a level of cleanliness that was once only achieved by hours of work.
When finished with the FloorMate, this machine is easily stored with a folding handle that makes the FloorMate more compact for tight spaces – keeping the FloorMate close at hand for cleaning emergencies.
The FloorMate comes with bonus detergent solutions for hard floors and grout. It has a suggested retail of $199.99 and is available nationwide. Consumers can visit www.hoover.com for more information on the product, technology or detailed model features.
