After only few uses mine just started spraying water out of the hose attachment and it will not stop. Has anyone else had this problem?

Serena, go on you tube under this particular piece of junk. I went to a site selling this and there were tons of 3/4/5 stars all happy....well, that's because people run to their computers when the product is brand new and puts on a great show. After but a few uses this Hoover leaks out the black water, the brush quits working and turns quickly into junk. There were many,many complaints with the same problems, plus mechanical ones some of the men posters bragged about knowing how to fix, but if you are a woman forget it. This did the best job I ever saw the first few times, then soaked my carpet to the point of ruin. There should be a class action recall or refund on this, instead we let Hoover get buy with making and selling this piece of trash. Don't feel alone, check out all the cover up Hoover does to pretend they only get 5 stars......yeah, from new purchasers if you notice. Hoover would not let me make a 2nd comment...but boy, I have nothing nice to say about it. Out of desperation just purchased their Dual Power Max, it has a different brush system and it, too, stinks and is going back. Unfortunately Bissell has that stupid bladder system and soon wasn't worth a dime. I am resorting to the fact homebuyers are subject so bad design and corrupt products so the manufacturers can keep making money with repurchasing. Not just Hoover but many products from wall cleaners on down will put on a great show at first then water down after it is on the market for even a short while. Again, check it out on You Tube.

Not sure exactly what you mean. I have never had the hoses break at all and I have had 3 of these in a period of 8 years. One the dog chewed up. I have had one just recently spring a pin-hole sized leak which I fixed with one of the little plugs. I have had the sprayer heads stop working. Sorry if I can't be more helpful. If the system is within a year old, I would ask Nelson for a replacement as that particular one might be defective.

Yes, we had the same thing happen to us with the (blue) colored hoses. This season we purchased a new an improved (green) colored expandable hose and it is working out great (so far). Our hose get's used about every other day. I hope this helps.

I've never had a problem with it. Squeeze the handle and it sprays every time. Perhaps you've inadvertently disconnected it or clogged the nozzle. It's pretty simple mechanically, so you can take it apart, inspect, and reassemble it in a few minutes.

Yes- I took all of the hoses apart, cleaned everything, put it back together, and it never happened again. I hope that helps!

My husband's WP hose (leading to the sprinkler) worn out, spraying water every where, but not on the tip itself. He got the manufacture's website, ordered it for $8.00 and a few $$ for shipping. It came less than a week, took 10 minutes to replace, worked like a charm. I believe yours should be stress-free problem as well. Good luck

I just got mine a couple weeks ago and have used it 3 times. I do see and hear the steam when using it, it sounds like something might be wrong with yours.

Mary, when I first got my unit I had the same issue. But now it works much better once I removed a couple of the hoses. Instead of uses the full set of hose, I took two off. Try to remove one at a time until it performs better but make sure there's enough to reach the far side of the pool.

No I have not had this problem. I have had it a few years. No drips. I would guess it is not likely to stop either, just due to the nature of drips.

I have the same problem...I have used the machine twice, tried a third time. First time it worked great! Second time I had to unclip the little spray nozzles at the bottom and un-clog them with a paper clip. Third time I was unsuccessful in getting the machine to spray (spend hours looking stuff up on the internet and trying different solutions, nothing worked). It was useless. VERY frustrating.

I have been having the same problem. I was thinking it was missing a part on the end of the nozzle that the attachments attach to, if that makes sense. Good to know others have got it to work. I'll keep trying.

I had one that did that. return it asap! It can't be fixed. I've had three. One failed the second time I used it, doing what yours is doing. The other sheared open along a 4 foot length of hose and the water poured out there. The only one I've had that has lasted is the one made by Rumford. The other two were useless!

It is probably leaking at one of the connections and running down the hose. I have had to retighten where it connects to the sprayer a couple of times. Hope this helps

I am glad to see someone else has this problem! I have had mine replaced 4 times! Did you ever get yours working? I had an old model for 10 years that never leaked, so I know what I'm doing. Frustrating.

I have used mine a few times with no leaks even left it hooked up a few hours to test and it held set pressure. Maybe try new male connector on your hose and see if it helps

We've had two, and both had leaks in the hose near the connectors within a month or two. We really liked the hose when it worked, but it just doesn't last.

I have same trouble, but mine worked fine 1st. day, did you check the pool intake screen inside the hose fitting? You have to unscrew the hose fitting then see the plastic mesh (inside pool intake) where it will catch larger bugs and other debris, sometimes it will stop most all water flow until cleaned out.
