How tall is this machine? Does it have several washing modes (i.e. normal, gentle)? Also how does it drain? Thank you.

Hi there ~ It's about a foot and a half high, it doesn't have a lot of "modes" but it's pretty gentle on clothes. You can't fit very much in it....a load of tshirts and underwear maybe. It drains through a hose that you aim into your sink. I always put mine on the kitchen counter next to the sink so that the hose from the kitchen faucet fills it up and another hose drains into into the sink. Simple and easy but for very small loads.

Did anyone ever give you dimensions for this machine? Is it small or regular size? Thank you Angela

The suction goes from low to high and everything in between. Suction will not be an issue with this machine

The newer model is slightly larger, but weighs less than 14lbs. which is 8.3lbs. LESS It has 2 additional brushes which are specially designed to cover sealed hardwood floors and tile & grout. 360 clean: SpinScrub Technology gently washes and scrubs hard floors from all angles. Wash, scrub & dry: Switching between options is a snap. CleanBoost Control applies extra detergent to stains and heavy traffic areas. 11.5" Removable Nozzle provides a combined squeegee and suction to quickly dry. Removable for easy cleaning. It uses several different Hoover cleaning solutions, the Hoover Multi-FLOORPLUS 2x concentrated is great and you don't need much unless the floors are a high-traffic area or very dirty. There are solutions designed for use cleaning grout and another for wood floors. I like that it leaves the floor so dry that there are no steaks and so clean that you can feel the difference with your bare feet. As I said, I didn't have the previous version, all the technical information I found on different web sites and the last is my personal opinion and observation. I have other brands that called their brands (Shark, Bissell and others) that said they were cleaners or sanitizers and all they did was much around hot, dirty water. The only difference between them and mopping is that they were easier to push around, the water remained hot, and you were not bending over to wring it out. Even the ones that said they dried the floors, did not unless you went over them at least at least three times (it varied, depending on the humidity level). There is nothing worse than pulling up water that is not clean after you have used the machine at least twice. It is discouraging and disgusting. That is why I LOVE this one, it cleans using very little of the 2x solution (a small bottle is included) and then removes the water leaving you with a clean, dry floor without streaks. It is lightweight and I am nor writhing in pain when I finish.

I have this unit and I've been very pleased. While I don't have long hair, it seems to be just fine. I'd make sure that you have cover over your drain and not leave it wide open. You definitely want to follow all instructions if you use this for the toilet and sink too.

The machine is very noisy but you will never have to empty the water out. It evaporates and never builds up. I have had this machine for many years and have not had any problems with it.

It is relatively easy to clean. I use the brush to brush away the hairs, then I hold the heads under running water. You can NOT place the unit under water. I then run the razor upside down over the sink and let the remains run out. Then I wipe it dry. It is important to clean after each use or the machine will catch and pull. I know!

Yes about 2.5 inches high.I have not had much water in it.It does not hold a lot of water with the room that the washer takes up.Never would rely on the 8-10 gallon water answer.

It runs really quietly in my opinion. It comes with an additional noise dampening plate hidden under the foam in the box. Sometimes the splashing water is the noisiest part of the wash. It doesn't vibrate if it it well balanced. Nice little washer with big capacity, kinda rough on the clothes though.

Hi, the hand held has about 59-60 in hose. Not sure exactly what you are asking about other question? The height is dependent on where your hook up is located. THe main head and handheld are about equal in position. It would probably be fine for washing a dog, I would just worry about the water pressure.

It fills back up for the rinse cycle, so clothes are actually rinsed out. This washer uses water to wash clothes versus the HE models that use "tumbling and movement". That's why clothes are so much cleaner. The HE model that I had really was not as energy efficient as it claimed to be because with the self balancing making the cycles long and when the machine was not in use, the lights and the computer system was still on, the only way to make it not "ghost" electricity was to unplug it after each use. I so love this simple machine, wish I had purchased it sooner.

Drains quick. It is a very large deep sink. Very satisfied with the sink for our laundry room. Also purchased a double bowl Kraus sink for our kitchen. No complaints.

This one drains from the short side. I use it on the small counter to the left of my sink {approx. 13.5 in. }, turn the drain toward the sink, and the drain hangs over the sink about 2.5 in., which is very unobtrusive. Hope this helps.

well yes it has a handle - how else would you hold it when sweeping? it is adjustable length too , for tall or short people. I love it.

Replaced my previous answer after double-checking the specs. The machine is 80 inches tall, so about 6'8". We set this up in a room that we re-purposed as a gym. I'm 6'4" and it is comfortable to use.

I've found it'll depend on the height setting. I keep it on the second from the bottom for a short rug and it moves fairly well. the higher the brushes, the easier it gets. overall, though, I think it is a great machine in terms of weight. I have a bad back and do well with this rather a really expensive one. It cleans well too.

The dish drainer is 5 inches deep. I just measured it for you. BTW, I love it. I have gone through many but this one is by far my fav. It fits nicely in my sink and hold enough dishes to be very functional for a busy family.
