Quick take
Smart cleaning isn't one category, it's a collection of mess-specific tools. The four options here run the range from a pair of industrial degreaser jugs to a Hoover carpet cleaner accessory kit to two listings of the same window-cleaning robot. The right purchase depends on whether you're chasing grease on hard surfaces, carpet stains, or glass you'd rather not wipe by hand.
- Purple Power Industrial Degreaser Cleaner (2-Pack, 5 Gallons) - a heavy-duty cleaner for grease and grime on hard surfaces.
- Hoover Smart Wash+carpet Cleaner Replacement Accessories - a corded kit designed for the Hoover Smart Wash model.
- Window Cleaner Robot - two listings of the same glass-cleaning robot at slightly different prices.

Product notes
Purple Power Industrial Degreaser Cleaner (2-Pack, 5 Gallons)
This is the heaviest-duty cleaning liquid in the lineup. It is positioned for home, vehicle, factory, auto body shop, and farm use, which makes it less about one surface and more about cutting grease and scum wherever it builds up. The pair of 5-gallon jugs gives you a large supply in one purchase. The tradeoff is that it is a chemical cleaner, not a cleaning machine, so it is aimed at hard-surface grime rather than carpet fibers or window glass. You are also committing to storing two large jugs, which is worth thinking about if your space is tight.
Hoover Smart Wash+carpet Cleaner Replacement Accessories
This is an open-box item in the group and the one focused on carpet spot cleaning. The kit is a corded, 120V canister/cylinder cleaner in black with a washable filter. It is designed for the Hoover Smart Wash model and compatible with the FH52000 automatic carpet cleaner, so it works as an add-on for that base unit. The limitation is that this is replacement accessories rather than a full carpet cleaner, which means the actual cleaning still depends on the compatible Hoover machine. It is also the lowest-priced entry in this set.
Window Cleaner Robot - Lower-Priced Listing
This robot is the hands-free path to window cleaning. It uses remote control, 2800-3200Pa suction, a four-way dual spray, and a microfiber cloth, and the spray-and-wipe approach wets the glass before wiping it. It is designed for windows, making it useful for hard-to-reach panes, glass doors, or large windows you'd rather not clean from a ladder. The limitation is the narrow focus: it is aimed at glass rather than greasy garage floors or carpet stains, and it costs more than the other options in this group. If dirty glass is the main mess in your home, this is the option that matches that job.
Window Cleaner Robot - Higher-Priced Listing
The second listing of the same window robot comes in at a slightly higher price. It still offers the same window-cleaning capabilities: new, made for glass surfaces, and the same spray-and-wipe cleaning design as the other entry. If you end up on this listing, the product itself is a functional remote-control window cleaner. The limitation is that the higher price doesn't add a different feature set, and the glass-only focus remains. Between the two, the lower-priced listing is the more direct buy, but this one is functionally the same robot.
Final recommendation by use case
- For carpet stains and spot cleaning: Hoover Smart Wash+carpet Cleaner Replacement Accessories at $38.66. It is an open-box kit that works with the Hoover Smart Wash FH52000.
- For grease and grime: Purple Power Industrial Degreaser Cleaner at $46.28. The two jugs hold enough concentrated cleaner for home, garage, shop, and farm surfaces.
- For hands-free window and glass cleaning: Window Cleaner Robot at $110.83. The other listing at $111.35 is the same robot, so the lower-priced listing is the direct choice.
