Most helpful customer reviews 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Fair By J. Baldino This product only does a fair job of cleaning. I have tile that is less than one year old and the grout only looked a little cleaner after 3 uses. It leaves a film of water on the surface that takes at least 15 minutes to dry and some spots have to be wiped up by hand. Would I buy this again, no. Jean 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Poor Product By J. Casey The Steam Mop left my floor very wet and did not put out that much steam. My regular hand mop did a better job. Returning product. 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Complete let-down By S I bought this steam mop for my wife because she was dying to try one out, with a baby tearing up the kitchen and all. However, this specific mop didn't even come close to where it needed to be in order to get the job done. The main problem here is that steam mop technology just isn't quite there yet. The steam alone isn't enough to get a lot of stains up, but since you can't use any type of chemicals in conjunction with this mop, it does very little to get the floor clean. Even worse, the process of steaming leaves a fine silt-like film all over the area after you're done. You pretty much have to break out the old mop and bucket just to clean up the mess that this "new and improved" mop made. I believe someone was good to try to apply steam cleaning to a handheld mop, but the process of just squirting the steam out of the bottom with nothing more than a cloth cover to clean the floor isn't really a good idea. Match that up with the $90 price tag, at least when I purchased it, and it makes this mop pretty pathetic as far as value is concerned. Overall, please save your money. You'd be better to buy a large steam vacuum for a little more that will at least have rotating brushes or some other gizmo that actually breaks down stains and stuff on the floor, instead of just relying on steam alone. I think this is pretty common with all of the steam mops out there, so again...please save your money. See all 9 customer reviews...
