20 Best Steam Cleaner For Vinyl Floors (Jan 2023 Update)

I have many animals and hardwood and tile throughout my home. I have had a Shark and Orek steam mops before and thought they did a decent job. But I am a hardcore Bissell fan when it comes to vacuums because of the massive shedding from the pets not to mention my drooling Mastiffs. I went with this Bissell for the brand and am more than satisfied with my choice. This model, 1940W, does an exceptional job of cleaning both my hardwood and tile floors without streaking or having to go over the saliva enzymes 20x before it lifts. I can really clean my floors easily on the medium setting and did my kitchen, dining room, living room, and hallway which is about 1600sq. feet without having to refill the tank. The scrubbing pad made easy work of getting up any spills or sticky spots, all in one quick motion. This is steamer mop is far better than the other two I had. The cord is plenty long and the scent discs which I didn't think would be a big deal actually are. The whole house smelled wonderful and the scent even wafted upstairs. The large pad surface and swivel head are a huge plus. I highly recommend this product and Bissell in particular.ShoppingSherpa

I bought this when it was deeply discounted to replace my other current options, which were either a bucket/mop with a lil fabuloso or pinesol or getting on my hands and knees with a rag. I already have a Dyson handheld cordless vacuum, so I decided not to get the vacuum steam mop combo version, and just get this lighter steam mop only instead. Just as the Dyson made me not mind vacuuming, I thought that getting the lighter steam mop would do the same for me but for mopping, even though it's corded. I have to say, it does what it says it'll do. It's not as detailed as spending hours in the floor with a hand-rag, or as deep cleaning as soaking the tile floor with a mop-bucket but it's wayyyyy less mess, dries wayyyy faster, it's wayyyy more ergonomic, and more likely that I'll do this more often than the other two methods, which was basically out of desperation once a year. I also really like that the pads are reusable and washable, even if it's kind of a pain to remember to wash them, and don't even mind the cord. It's the perfect length to cover my entire kitchen without unplugging. Glad I held out for this. I'm actually looking forward to having and maintaining somewhat clean floors from now on. #sweepstakesErin

I've tested a decent amount of vacuums over the last decade. This is the first one I've tested that was made for hard surfaces and I was excited to get it mostly for my wife who always uses whatever other vacuum on our hard floors almost interchangeably as our carpeted areas. While I normally would sweep hard floors and them vacuum up the pile or let our robot vacuum with mop attachment do all the work for me. Setup was a little overwhelming looking at first but not too bad. The whole thing comes in more pieces than I would normally expect to find but the instructions lay out what everything is pretty nicely and after the initial shock it wasn't too hard to figure it out. I put it all together and let it charge over night (it suggests at least 4-5 hours of charge time before the initial use). I'm pretty happy with the steps required to actually use this vacuum. It's mostly a supplement to our robot vacuum/mop. I'm happy with the robot but we usually go around the are and pick up/move everything off of the floor in the entire upstairs before we run it so it's a process. It does a good job but the setup and reconstruction of the area before running it makes us use it far less than I'd like. So having a vacuum that's made for sweeping and mopping that I can easily setup and break down is key. When you want to use this, just fill up the clean water tank with mostly water and a small cap-full of soap. Then you're ready to go. The first time I hit the power button, I was surprised as it kind of drives itself forward. Pretty nice to lighten the load but you're also fighting against that push when your pull the vacuum back again. Overall it was a nice little assist, I think. The vacuum and mop did a pretty nice job of cleaning the floor pretty quickly but it did require an empty and refill of the tanks before I was finished. That doesn't take too long so it was no big deal. After I was done doing the whole upstairs area, the battery still had about 60% left (I was worried because when I first started it up, it looked like the battery was draining very quickly). The nice thing about having a screen with all the information on it is that you can see at a glance how hard the vacuum is working and what battery level is remaining. After you're done the instructions recommend you clean the dirty and clean water tanks as well as the roller and roller protector after each use. This is the only annoying part since you can't really just grab the vacuum to do a quick job and put it back but the cleanup of these things doesn't take too long. The base station does include an auto-clean feature for the roller so you have that going for you and there were 2 additional rollers included with this vacuum so you can always just rotate them if you need to clean one. Apparently there's an app that goes with this vacuum. The instructions just said that you can "perform all functions from the app" but I don't really know what functions those are. I did not download the app and can't imagine what I would possibly need it for. The functions on the vacuum are very minimal and can be adjusted with just a few pushes of the 3 buttons on the vacuum. I just didn't want another app on my phone. The only weird thing I didn't love about this vacuum was how it sat on the charging station. It leans forward quite a bit for some reason. I would expect it to just sit straight up and down but when the head is locked and you place it on the charger the handle leans forward at what feels like a 30 degree angle. Far more than you'd expect. Enough that I thought I was doing something wrong. I couldn't figure out a better way to place it on the charger though so I'm going to assume it's just how it was designed. I got used to it quickly enough but it was a weird thing when I first saw it. Overall, I like the vacuum. It does a good job supplementing our robot vacuum by being easy to get up and running and being easy to break down and clean when we're done (while not needing to break down the entire upstairs before using it since we can move things while vacuuming). If you're looking for a nice hard surface vacuum/mop and this fits your budget, give it a look. I was impressed with it for the most part.swemoney

I never taught about using a vacmop before i was kind of skeptical and it would take me a while to clean my hardwood floors .. was kind of an event to say. Not anymore… thanks to this Tineco Floor One s5 Extreme i’m actually looking forward to do it now. I will attach some pictures to see what comes in the box and it’s pretty straight forward plug and play kind of situation as well with some before and after situation. Everything is very intuitive to use but you can check the book or type the name of it on youtube and they have an interactive video in how to use it for first time. It comes with 2 extra brushes and an extra filter that will come in handy when you’ll wash and let dry the ones that you’ll be using first(about 24hrs) they recommended doing that after each use and you’ll want to do that and don’t forget to empty the messy water each time so u prevent bad odors. The design and features are very modern … it has a voice and a screen that will assist you in your cleaning process. To be mentioned here is the feature that senses the proportion of a mess when on auto and turns gradually the blue light into a red one, sign that you should insist in that particular area till becomes completely blue and it’s scary accurate!!! The stand acts like a support and charger (which will take somewhere 3-4hrs for it to be fully juiced up). They also recommend using ONLY Tineco cleaning solution or just plain water. Make sure you youse warm-hot water with or without solution since will tackle the dirt better. I’m happy with the product and it really saves me a lot of time and does a great job!!!Denisik91

I totally underestimated this machine. When I turned it on, the brush kicked in and almost dragged me acoss the floor! Not really, but I was surprised by how powerful the brush was for such a compact package. This mop is no joke. I'm a busy and stressed-out professional, so lots of housekeeping chores don't get done on a regular basis. I've been meaning to clean the kitchen floor for quite a while — I had food and coffee spills, tracked mud, etc, on the floor in places, and serious grossness under the oven and fridge. I figured that I'd give this machine a workout. It really worked. It took several passes in some areas, but the machine just kept working at the mess until it was all clean. The dirty tank strains out the solid materials to make it easy to dump without clogging your sink. It also uses less water than I would expect, so I didn't have to dump the tank nearly as often as I thought I would have to. The clean tank and the dirty tank have good capacity. One super thoughtful little detail is that both tanks have flat bottoms, so they can be put upright on the counter, and you don't have to lean them against anything like you do with other wet vacuums. I really like how it is as maneuverable as a light vacuum, it does a great job on hard floors and we can also use it on floor mats that aren't too thick. That brush-forward design really gets right up to edges and corners. It is very user-friendly. The display is large, bright and useful, and the voice prompts are really helpful. Even self-cleaning is super easy. I'm just not sure what benefits you get from the app or its wifi connection.Snarltoof

I bought my Dupray Neat Steamer 2 years ago. It’s become one of my favorite cleaning tools for tackling the tough and weird to clean things like the couch and our big area rug. Since my last cleaning, I had an issue with the cap getting stuck despite proper cleaning and air drying after my last use. I was very happy to work with Nilan in customer service who helped me with my warranty and shipping. The experience was great and I recommend this product to everyone who appreciates a good cleaning.Crystal Sommer

One of my favorite things Ive ever bought. Its so easy to use. I absolutely love it. I love that I can use my own cloths on it instead of purchasing the expensive pads. It does come with 3. My only complaints are I wish the hose detached and it would be nice if there was a safety switch so I could lock the trigger so my 2 year old cant mess with it. If I need to take a break I have to shut it off and put it up so he cant get it. Then I have to wait for it to heat back up. Other than that its definitely worth the price.Beth

I've been using this steam cleaner for a while now. I used it to completely clean an apartment that I was moving out of and the landlord was impressed with the cleaning job that we did. The carpet was a little trampled down in the high traffic areas and the stream treatment helped to bring it back to its former fluffy self. I use it almost every weekend to clean my bathrooms and hard floors as well. I never have issues with steam productions and it has held up so far.Tyler

This product is great. It puts the Shark steam cleaner to shame. Its very powerful and last quite a long time on just a cup of water. It will give you about 15-20 minutes of continuous usage. However, if you press the trigger sporadically, it can last about 30-45 minutes. The steam blast is loud and packs a punch. I use this thing to clean and sanitize everything from my bathroom to the kitchen (always sanitize the nozzle with bleach or alcohol after use to avoid cross contamination). Another great feature is all the attachments it comes with so you can steam clean almost anything. My only issue is the quality of some of the attachment. The small brushes and scrub pads aren't really reusable. After the first usage, they start to fall apart, especially the scrub pads which are excellent for cleaning your tub and tile. You can buy more attachments online, but its kind expensive costing 10 for 5. One reason I switched to steam cleaning was to save money on cleaning solutions, but if I have to constantly buy the attachments, eventually it will work out to cost more than the cleaning solutions. But I recently used the steamer to clean this very disgusting fridge in the apartment Im renting. The steamer blast through all the filth, chocolate syrup, spilled soda, and other unknown substances with extreme ease.Monster_Review

I bought this tool to clean 1/2 grout tile floor grout. It worked great for the first 10 minutes, and it would great for the process, except it is not designed properly. I has a special small nozzle head, upon which small brush attachments are placed. There are three pieces, brush, nozzle, and nozzle attachment (to hook to hose or hose extension). The nozzle is made of thermoplastic, like the rest of the unit, except the pressure chamber cap, which is brass. The nozzle needed to be made of brass as well. The thermoplastic heats up, and a threaded piece (with o-ring) when at temperature cannot handle GENTLE scrubbing with the brush. (e.g. for the purpose it is made.) The nozzle fitting jumps the threads every time, once it heats up. So the unit is only good to use for about 10 minutes, before the nozzle gets soft from heat, and falls off constantly. If they made the nozzle out of brass, and the end piece (nozzle attach) out of metal, it would work great. But they didn't, so it is pure frustration to CONSTANTLY put the nozzle on again, and again, and again. This gets 1 star. It works great for 10 minutes, then its useless. If used with the larger attachments, it would probably be a great value; but I need it to clean grout. It says it cleans grout, but it really doesn't.MesaGuy

I've only used the MC1275 once to clean shower floor tile grout using the scrub pad attachment. I filled the steam chamber one time with distilled water, and the steam was ready in approximately 5 minutes. It was easy to control, but did a marginal job restoring the whiteness of the grout. The scrub pad itself came loose and separated completely from its plastic base in under 10 minutes. While the steamer worked as advertised, steaming cleaning the grout didn't live up to my expectations, and the scrub pad's durability was a major disappointment. The good – it produced steam reliably; control is easy to maintain. The bad – the scrub pad is virtually useless for scrubbing applications; steam alone will not magically clean discolored tile grout.beforemytime

I love this steam mop. It is super easy to use and saves so much time. I have 5 cats and a dog, my floors get gross quickly and are very difficult to keep clean. This mop takes all the effort out of scrubbing the floor. What use to take almost an hour takes about 15 mins. The cord is super long and the steam mop is very sturdy but not to heavy. With the spin setting it basically walks on the floor all by itself. This has made my floors look great andy life so much easier. This is my 4th of 5 big shark item and I seriously love them all. Shark is such an innovative and dependable brand it's my new go to.Morganssss

I was so excited to unbox the Shark S7201 Steam & Scrub with Steam that I received in exchange for my use and honest review. It came very securely packed and all items were in perfect condition. A handy instruction booklet was included. I was happy to discover how easy this product is to use – the pads connect very easily and the Steam & Scrub is so easy to operate – just the touch of a finger and the pads do all the work for you. There is a Steam Blaster mode that makes hard-to-scrub spills come right up. My favorite thing about this product is that I can feel good about not having to use harsh chemicals on my floors – with pets this is a real concern. I highly recommend the Shark Steam & Scrub with Steam.gigdeb

I have owned a steam mop before but it just wasn't that great. It would move the dirt around. You really have to vacuum well before you use a steam mop because this does not actually pick up the loose dirt. It was easy to put together, however, when I was trying to turn it on the first time, it kept blinking. You need to pull back the handle for it to start. It uses distilled water to preserve the inside parts. The hot water will disinfect your floor but I also squirted a bit of cleaner on the floor after a pet accident. You should not add chemicals to the water reserve. Once turned on, it kind of moves itself around but it is not hard to pull back. I love that it has lights so you can see the dirt better. It has 4 pads, which I definitely need. I do pet sitting and my floors get filthy quickly so the added extra pads allow me to continue on instead of stopping to wash the pads. The water reserve is not large so you will have to add more water. I didn't see a notification light as to when the water is low, which would help. There may be one, but I didn't see it. This mop gets the job done quickly! And most importantly feels so nice on my feet after I am done. The rotating pads really do a good job. There is a steam button for heavily soiled spots. It did not get rid of some of the dried-up gook but I just took a sponge and scrubbed it a little. I like not having to use harmful chemicals to clean the floor and feel good using this around pets. The pads are easily washed in the washing machine and you can add bleach if they become stained. I have used this on both tile and laminate. I am extremely happy with this mop. It definitely beats using a regular mop.LoriH

First of all, Use distilled water only & it will work longer… just like an iron. Important to use distilled water!!! I have had mine for over 10 years . It still works great, has no handle (broke cause I dropped too many’s times) It still cleans like a champ! Dogs, cats , kids & I absolutely still my favorite part of cleaning! Is a must! My shark has 3 settings turn on & go still scalding hot! Love it!Artzyfartzy in Cali

Ok, where has this hark – Shark® Professional Steam Pocket® Mop been all my life? Previously, I had always used a regular broom and mop to clean my floors and thought that was enough. Well, after this pandemic hit, I really wanted to be sure to keep my home clean and sanitized. Well, look no further. This mop steamer is amazing! It has 3 functions, light dust, steam and scrub. Well, I started with the steam function first, and was amazed at how gently it steamed my floors. I had a few spots that needed a little extra tmatrwntion, so I switched to scrub mode which was pretty amazing roo. I then completed the floors on steam. When I was done, my floors looked better than they ever had, and were so clean I felt like I could eat off the floors!! The pad is easy to remove and hand or machine washable. Comes with 2 pads which is great. I would indeed recommendChellester

I had this steam mop PRE pandemic and unfortunately in a move, lost it. So I bought the new improved one. What a loss. My old one was a pump steam feature which allowed more controlled steam from the human cleaning. This new one “automatic” and is so sporadic it’s annoying. It does a full blast of steam for around 20seconds. Then stops all steam to build up steam momentum, in which you lose about 30-40 seconds waiting. It’s a lot of wait time for a good clean. In which it does clean well. But it’s so annoying. I want the old technology. I could pump the handle on the old one, to release as much steam as I wanted and use an entire container of water in one steam moment, if I wanted to! This one is too time consuming. Until the end, in which you save a dirty spot, and you turn off the machine and GIANT puffs of steam emit, in which you can scrub to your hearts delight. Unfortunately I prefer steamed water to clean so I will keep this dumb upgrade. I miss my old one.ThisGirl

I bought this two months ago to replace my previous Shark steam mop (a different model), which my daughter "borrowed". I have also had other brands of steam mops in the past. I like that the water tank is removable and can be filled directly from the tap and there is not a little jug which needs to be stored somewhere. I like that it is light and relatively small and hence easy to store and carry. I also like that it stands up by itself. My previous mop had the flip over option and the cloth was like a pocket, with only one side open. Unfortunately it shrank on its first wash and never fitted properly again, often coming off mid-mopping (one of the reasons I did not press y daughter to return it), so I liked that this model's cloth attached differently. The bit I did not anticipate with this model was that whilst the cloths stays on fine when mopping hard floors, I cannot use it to steam clean carpets as the cloths sticks to the carpet in preference to the mop. I wish I had known this before buying this mop. This is the first steam mop I have had where you have to prime the pump to get the steam flowing. This requires you to pump the handle a few times. What the instructions do not say is that you have to continue the pumping action to keep the steam flowing. Now, this happens automatically as you are mopping the floor, but when you stop to move the mop around furniture (which most of us have on our floors) the steam stops and then you have to pump it several times to get it going again. Same issue if you want to hold the mop on a stain to give it a while to soften, steam flow stops. So, overall I would not rush to buy this model again, despite it having some good features.CN263

If you are looking for a small, steam mop that delivers big results, look no further! I decided going in, that this steam mop was going to just be mediocre. But, much to my surprise, cleaned like no one’s business! The little water basin could be a little larger, but it’s not a deal breaker imo. Once plugged in, expect to be ready to mop away in about 20-30 seconds. Yes, for once a product literally gives an accurate description. I use a spray bottle with 1-3 ratio of vinegar water and spray as I mop to give a little extra disinfectant. By the end of my clean, my washable reusable mop pad is filthy with yuck. Let me also state, I use my shark mop FIRST (vacuumChrista

The mop was super quick and easy to set up and the longer cable meant getting around large floors wasn’t such a task after all, I was reluctant to buy in favour of a cordless but couldn’t find one, I guess for electrical safety reasons these cannot be cordless. Plenty of steam, remember to do the pump action if you experience low steam with it. It takes me moments to go around and do all of our floors here, and the mop came with two pads so I’m not without if the other one hasn’t gone in with the mucky wash yet. The pad head itself twists around in movement so I can easily manoeuvre it down the sides of the toilet and any other skinny gap floor areas that fit. The price was competitive in the sale, and for something as good as this I would go as far as saying overall my purchase is outstanding. Highly recommend!Rachel

My first steam mop I absolutely love it! I had grown tired of use the old method of cleaning my kitchen floor. I happen to be searching online and ran across this product. After reading the reviews it was like yes I’m getting this mop. Plus the price included free home delivery. I couldn’t be happier with my choose. No problem reaching corners underneath the cabinets. My floor smells great too when I use one of the Demineralized Water Plus Scents.eva.h

I was very entertained by the gal who reviewed this and pointed out she doesn't eat off the floor. It was a great review, and decided me: I bought the mop. Is it perfect? Nope. Did I expect it to be? Nope. Does it do the job? Absolutely. Here's what I love about it: * it was cheap * it's lightweight, and hangs up where my brooms and dustmops and so on go. It may not work for you, so don't count on that, but the "thing" I hang my stuff from works for this. * it's fast to heat up, and does the job quickly * it works with tap water * it's not only lightweight to hang up, but clearly lightweight to push around * it gets the mud and dirt off the floor with very little effort on my part Here's what I don't love about it: * holding down the "trigger" that releases the steam starts to hurt…the edges of the plastic could certainly be smoother * the literature is not clear, and it may be much better to use bottled water, which would make it not free to use (I was trying to avoid having to purchase disposable pads and special cleaners, and wanted to use tap water–free water). I'm choosing to ignore the possibility, and if it shells out early because I'm using our hard water, then I'll just buy another, because it wasn't that expensive. * it doesn't scrub spots as well as I'd hoped, and it didn't work any magic on areas of my new-ish grouted vinyl tile floor that still appear to be dirty from the installation. So, does that mean there's still dirt there that this isn't getting? Could be. Could also be that it's my imagination–the color of the floor is such that I could indeed be seeing a couple spots as dirt when those spots are in fact simply the color of tile. Does anyone else look at my floor right after I mop it, and tell me I missed a couple spots? Never. Bottom line, I've pulled this thing out every other day since I bought it a couple weeks ago, and in five minutes or less have the day's mud cleaned up (we have a dog, and get little muddy feet marks regularly). I'd buy this again, and recommend it to anyone who just wants an inexpensive way to get the floor cleaned up with little physical effort so they can go to the gym and get their exercise there! 🙂stitchincarol

Steam mops are magical! My cleaning heart is so happy! We moved in three years ago and the floor in our bathroom has always looked like this. I probably scoured 30+ years of grime out of these tiles. So gross! Still not my favorite tile, but I can at least live with it for a little while longer and not get totally disgusted every time I look at it. The Bissell Powerfresh Slim 3-in-1 is my new best friend! Using the handheld pod, red brush, and a bit of elbow grease to scrub both tile and grout it performed really well. The grime was really built up and I had to clean out the bristles often, but I was expecting that for the initial deep clean. I also pretreated the tile flooring with a vinegar solution to loosen the dirt before scrubbing and that worked like a charm. For a big job like this I had to refill the tank several times, but if there was a larger water tank it would have added extra weight and made it difficult to maneuver the pod. Haven't tried the extension arm or the mop head yet, but I think it will be a great way to keep all that grime build up at bay.Anna

Assembly was simple although at first I didn’t realize the screw that holds it together was taped to the handle, and I worried it was lost. Also to those receiving this mop with what looks like a “used” water tank and are returning it because it appears to have been used and then returned: I believe Bissell water tests these machines to check for leaks and to make sure everything works properly before packaging up for the consumer, so you could order ten of these and all ten would appear “used.” If all the other components and packaging appear to have not been opened and used once before, it’s safe to say your product hasn’t been used and then returned. The power cord was neatly folded and the twist tie did not appear to have been undone before and retied, the mop pads were clean and smelled of the manufacturer not like someone’s detergent. The screw came in a sealed plastic bag taped to the handle. Pretty safe to say it hadn’t been used before. The scrub brush is amazing. I use it on the caulking by my baseboards to get up dirt and dust. I will say, the “light” steam setting seems a bit too light. Maybe just for a quick dusting of your floors. The high setting is the way to go if you really want to see some steam and a good amount of wetness left behind on the floor. I had mopped with my traditional mop a week before using the steam mop, and to be honest I wasn’t too surprised that the pad was dirty since I’ve always assumed the mop was leaving dirty water behind. Definitely purchase!Sarschmi

I was excited to buy this to clean/sanitize my floors in the entire house. I have large marble tile (very glossy) in first floor and semi gloss wood floor on the stairs & second floor. I started downstairs first, and worked my way upstairs. I followed the exact directions, and the first floor with marble came out terrible with super large streaks of water. I had it set to high steam, and was using the rough textured pad for the stains. I then began the stairs, and worked my way up to the second floor. Refilled the tank with water, and began the same process on the second floor and came out way better. This doesnt work great with high gloss tile. Wood is better to absorb the moisture it leaves behind. Pros: the cord is very long, and the tablet it comes with in the box left my house smelling really good. I will give it one more shot with the first floor’s marbel tile on low steam setting, and the white pad to see how it goes. If the outcome is the same, I’m going to return it.Chris

My wife and I love the Shark Steam Pocket Mop. It was easy to assemble and did not require any tools. The directions are easy to follow and it comes with a measuring cup to make it easy to fill with distilled water. We filled it with water, plugged it in, waited 30-45 seconds, and began mopping. If you want more steam, just pump the handle a few times and it increases the amount of steam released. It works great around the stove to remove oil that splatters out of the pan. It is also great for use in the bathroom to disinfect the area around the toilet. It comes with two mop covers that are machine washable. We use it on our porcelain tile and hardwood floors and it works great. I wish it held more water so I did not have to refill it as often. It is small and lightweight but does a great job steaming the dirt and grime off our floors. I highly recommend the Shark Steam Pocket Mop!Joseph12

Right out of the box, this mop was easy to assemble and begin using. It is recommended that you only use distilled water in the mop. I used the mop on my tile floors and it was very easy to move around since it was so lightweight. It dries very quickly and cleans and sanitizes. I love that the cloth attachment comes off so easily and can be thrown in the washing machine. It would be nice if it were cordless/battery powered, but the cord is long enough that I was able to get around most of the house. I also wish it held a little more water so that it didn’t have to be refilled so frequently. Overall this is a great mop, is easy to use, and dries quickly without leaving a chemical smell or residue.sage33

We had two different inexpensive steam mops when we lived in the UK. They were easy to use and made cleaning up the kitchen or bathroom a breeze. They last longer if you use distilled water because it was eventually the hard water that built up in the first one that it quit steaming after 3-4 years of steady use. When we returned to the US, I bought this one based on the good reviews. It came with two washable pads which is convenient and you can use either side for cleaning. However, I was disappointed to find after buying it that the pumping action is necessary to produce the steam. This means when you are trying to push it or pull it across the floor, a lot of the energy you put in results in the handle going inward instead of the mop moving. This makes it much more laborsome to mop and makes for a sore arm. This was annoying at first but after a few month it stopped producing much (or any steam) and instead drips water on the floor behind it. So now we basically have a $60 piece of junk as it doesn't steam.Ticket to Ride fans

I bought this item after being a continuous swiffer wet jet user. Every time a new version would come out, I'd buy the newest one. And this was a great item, for the amount of time it lasted.. I used it for about 7 months & the trigger pulley for the steam boost broke off down inside the stick. And the way it is designed makes it impossible to fix or replace just the broken part, as there are no parts available for this issue. The trigger actually engages & connects all the way down the entire stick, which is completely enclosed, so even if it just slipped off the hook inside, you still have a useless steam boost that still works, heats up & comes on, but because you have to pull the trigger, to engage the steam whenever you need it, you basically have a steam mop that's warmed & ready, but with no way to use it. I do have to say though, I am a mother of 6 children, and this thing would clean up even the stickiest of messes!! It would make the entire house smell wonderful (I always bought the gain scent) & I always know that the germs are being killed wherever I mop! And, even though it's so much more convenient & sanitary than reusable mopping pads, these steam boost pads can get quite expensive if your entire house is all hard flooring. But it was well worth it to me not having to worry about washing my mop pads every single day & having to wash it by hand if it gets dirty before I'm done mopping. But at the same time, even though they can get expensive, 1 mop pad does quite a large area. And it's better for me to know that my mop pad I just used in the bathroom, isn't being used in the kitchen, etc. I just toss the germs in the trash can, along with my worries of cross-contamination! So yes, even though the trigger mechanism broke rather quickly on my unit, I still got tons of use out of it & I'm actually shopping for a new steam boost right now to replace my broken one. I would definitely recommend this to anyone, just go easy on the steam boost trigger, and try not to just 'let it go' when you are disengaging the trigger as I believe this made it wear out & eventually break the inner mechanism much faster. Also, the kids will fight over 'who gets to mop'!! It heats up in about 30 seconds & it was well-worth the price. I just hope they fix the design-flaw of the trigger, so it's not totally enclosed inside the stick. Or, they start offering a part to fix this flaw. I am buying it for my 2nd time & would again because I certainly got my money's worth of cleaning out of it! It's lightweight, easy to get out & put up, heats up quickly, has a convenient hanging hook, and it cleans awesome!!Jessers320

My Wife and daughter love this steam mop however, we are on our third one (4th if you include my daughter). We bought our first a few years ago. After using it for a few months, we bought a second one for the upstairs so my wife would not have to carry it up and down the stairs. At the same time we bought one for my daughter. It was not long before the trigger on the first one broke. Perhaps a year and a half or so… So my wife reverted to carrying the newer one up and down the stairs again. Within the year the trigger on the second one broke and when my wife told my daughter about it my daughter said something to the effect of "Oh yeah, mine broke too. I forgot to tell you. We waited a while and then I bought another one for my wife. The trigger on this one just broke. So 4 have broken in as many years. The reality is that its more coast effective for me to just buy another one than to spend my time complaining to the company. Enough however, is enough. you need to be made aware,YET AGAIN, that you have a defective design. GREAT PRODUCT but with a defect. Every time it's the same thing, the steam trigger breaks. I have taken it apart and have determined that the 2 plastic nubs on the side of the trigger which hold the trigger into the fulcrum of the pivot inside of he handle have broken off. There is also another plastic catch which has two sides to it and one of those sides had broken off. I have read enough of these reviews to have been made aware that this is a known issue with this model and that MANY other people have experienced the EXACT SAME issue. Might I suggest that if Bissell intends to continue to market this model, that you simply re-design your trigger and make it in Metal and while you are at it, put a trigger lock on it. At the very least, make the trigger out of metal.Eric

This is my second time with this particular steam mop. The first time about 4 to 6 months after purchase the steam mop would not stay straight it kept twisting and turning and was difficult to maneuver. I liked this mop because it steamed and smelled very nice and floors looked clean and shiny. However, I decided to get a new one. I've had this one for about 4 yrs and only use it ocassionally. Well sadly the trigger handle snapped as the two tiny plastic pieces that hold it in place broke off of the trigger handle so now when I squeeze the connection cannot be made for the steam to be released. When I opened it I saw the cheap plastic and two little tiny bits that broke off so I figured I would go on line and find the part replacement at Bissell. Unfortunately, this part and NO other parts for this steam mop are manufactured for replacement. I think when you sell a product with cheap parts that are easily broken you should at least manufacture replacement parts because it is very likely they are going to break easily and you are going to have some very unhappy consumers. As much as I used to like this product when I bought first one, after the second time around I am convienced that I will NOT be purchasing this product nor recommending it to anyone :(. Very dissatisfied when I called and was told they are sorry they have no replacement (s) for this product. My Advice: DO NOT WASTE MONEY ON ITEMS THAT ARE MADE WITH CHeAP PLASTIC PARTS (especially when there are no replacements 🙁Miss Valentina

I love this steamer. I tried it on my carpet in the living area of my apartment. To my surprise, it did a great job! You could actually see the difference. I had used a carpet cleaner once and this did a better job!! Sure glad I made the purchase!!!GG

I have two long haired cats. In my kitchen near the stove I had a lot grease buildup from cooking. Lately I stated to notice my cats hair was shredding and the loose hair was now getting in the grease. I ordererorderer the H20 Mop because I really needed some help. This product took just minutes to put together. The water heats up even quicker and it really did the job. The steam loosens up the grease and the hair, and with one wipe it came off. I can't wait to tackle my bathroom. But this saved me a lot embarassment since my family is coming over for the holidays. No one would have wanted to cook in my kitchen before. It was really nasty.kes

It takes less than a minute to warm up. The heat is hot enough to melt away candle wax and nail polish on hardwood floors. It is a little hard, however, to clean vehicle seats with but that's what a detailer is used for! I recommend it. I use it for my tub, my floors and my rugs. Best cleaning product I've owned so far.StopComplaining

My wife and i were totally happy and satisfied with your product ( the McMculloch canister steam system) We cleaned the kitchen sinks, the Granite counter tops, and ceramic floors in the kitchen and bathrooms. We also cleaned the sinks and showers and toilets. We were amazed with the results. Would I purchase this product again? Yes in a heart beat. Robert J. SmithRobert

I purchased this unit to detail a car. However we have used it to clean shower trim and tile grout and it has done a super job. The amount of accessories is fantastic. My only regret not buying one earlier.Richard

I love this steam cleaner it makes cleaning so much easier and knowing I'm not using harsh chemicals makes me even happier. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is I wish the steam would last longer before having to refill. Otherwise it's a great cleaner. Every home needs onerobin.s

I am amazed at everything I can clean with the Black & Decker 8 piece Complete Steam Cleaning System. Amazed at how steam can clean! I thought mopping my floors thoroughly cleaned them & the grout lines, nope! Steaming them using the grout tool, & the complete steam steam system, I couldn’t believe the dirt it brought out. Using this is so easy, snap on the grout brush, filling water, plug in & turn it on. Reading which settings is my Only complaint, the manual is printed a little small. From grout to steaming the floor after to finish is simple, power off. Take off grout brush and snap on the mop. It really doesn’t get easier! I found using this also so comforting, the sound of the steam, how smooth and easy the mop glides on my floor. So much better then mopping! My glass shower doors look amazing using the squeegee. Done in under 5 minutes. I love cleaning the sing this steam mop!Strwbrrydanisho5

This is my 2nd steam product ive used in my home. I have a larger steam mop that works great. I was a bit skeptical at first since this one is smaller compared to its cousin. The different connections is very smart to include because we have used this in our showers and walls in the bathroom to help speed up the process to cleaning. When i used the steam mop i used half water and half pinesol and havent had a issue with the compartment getting damaged. I took before and after shots and youll be surprised as to how a regular mop doesnt do the job. You may smell clean but the steam mop shows how it truly gets the job done. Even days after cleaning my floors and home still have the pinesol fragance.Family08

So many uses. This steam mop system comes with everything needed to steam clean almost everything in my house. It takes under a minute to heat up and be ready to use. The water reservoir is very easy to fill. The pads are washable so I don't have to spend money on disposable pads. I normally use a spray mop with cleaner on my floors. It works fine but I wanted something to really get the floors clean without the use of cleaners or chemicals. That is where this mop comes in. It steam cleaned my tile floors as well as hardwood floors so well. My hardwood floors never looked that clean with a regular spray mop. Everything looks so clean and the pad was black so I know it really cleaned well. This is a really great steam mop system. I can't wait to find more places to use it.Bx04

Love not having to use a lot of chemicals to clean. Makes cleaning more enjoyable for me. Have only touched the surface with what I can do with it!Rita

During the 2 years of the pandemic, our family was using Lysol wipes on a daily basis to make sure all surfaces were sanitized. I wanted to find a way to disinfect our house and cars without using chemicals and this steamer was the solution we were looking for! I also want to point out the fact that the customer service is so reliable! One of the cloths was missing from the box and I reached out to them. Francesca called me back within a couple of days and was able to sen me the accessory that I was missing in less than a week! Thank you!Wendily

I lived in Germany and I have been looking for a steamer that could compare to the quality I could find in Europe for a long time. I finally found it! It is easy to use and the fact that I do not have to stop and refill the canister allows me to clean the whole house saving me so much time! I can switch from cleaning the stove to mopping my floors to scrubbing the shower in just a few minutes, all it takes is a quick attachment change!!Joshua

I received my mop within 3 days and having owned a previous one, similar but not a Black & Decker, I was very impressed with the quality of the standard of material of the mop and Portable Steamer and accessories. I cleaned the white tiles in my kitchen and was happy with the result. I was disappointed that I did not receive a carpet glider and an accessory bag which I was supposed to receive with this model.Berna

I received my machine a week ago. First time using a cleaning product without adding chemical cleaning agents. Easy to use steamer includes an organizing case for the accessories.I’m very satisfied with the brio plus 400 cc steam machine.J007

My favourite use of the unit is for washing walls and washing/sanitizing floors. I like the two levels of steam as well as the nozzle that concentrates steam for really powerful cleaning of crevices and corners. The case is streamlined and controls are visible and accessible. It’s very helpful to be able to add water without having to cool/depressurize the unit. Some of the accessories are more useful than others to me. The window/squeegee tool is messy to use and i was unable to get the small tools to attach to the concentrator tip. Overall the unit fulfills the need I have for itGrammaE

Very pleased with the unit. I love how easy it is to use and that it doesn't require any chemicals just water that I can keep adding as I go without needing to stop the unit. The jet nozzle did an amazing job cleaning the grout between small tiles in both the bathroom and front entrance. I also like that it came with multiple small brush attachments so that I can have one designated for the bathroom. It did a great job on both tiled and hardwood floors, including tough stains. I didn't even need to go to the higher setting, just let it sit on top for a few seconds and then it came right up. Having designated spots for all the attachments in the carrying case is plus as well.Lace

This little steamer produces a large amount of steam for the whole time that it is activated. The most useful attachment so far has been the nozzle. I used the unit to sanitize an entire mattress and box spring. I am satisfied that it was hot enough to kill all the mites and small spiders we were seeing when changing bedding. I used a small brush attachment on a few stains after I had applied some all purpose cleaner and it lifted the stains with only light brushing. I am sure I will find many more uses around the house and RV when cleaning and sanitizing surfaces and fabrics. I blasted the wire oven racksSwampy
