While it doesn't clean as well as it does on the commercials (not that I expected it to) it does a pretty good job. For me, I will sacrifice a bit of cleanliness for convenience, and it is SO much more convenient to use this than it is to lug out a mop! Some people complained about washing the pads. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. I do laundry almost every day here, so I throw it in a garment bag and wash it with the rest of the laundry. It works a lot better than the Swiffer Wet Jet I was previously using, and doesn't leave a residue behind as the Wet Jet did. I found that with repeated cleanings, my floors are showing a real difference compared to the Wet Jet. I think the Wet Jet left behind a lot of dirt and grime, so the shark needed to wash the floor a few times before it was all up. Now my floors look as clean as they did when they were first installed. The only complaint I have is the size of the water tank. Others have complained about this as well. To wash the downstairs bathroom, hallway, and kitchen (all tile) I have to fill it up 2-3 times. While it's not the end of the world, it is a little inconvenient. I bought the Shark at Sam's Club, and it came with a hand-held steamer bottle. I didn't think I would use that at all, but it has been an unexpected bonus! I have soap-scum in one of my showers that I had given up on. I tried every cleaning product. I've scrubbed it. Nothing worked. I tried the steam bottle yesterday, and most of it came off with the steam and some scrubbing. I'll probably need to go over it a couple of times before it's 100% clean, but it did a much better job than anything else I've used. It also works great for cleaning my brushed-nickel faucets. Everything else I used left streaks, and the steamer leaves them streak-free and shiny. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this purchase. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Poor substitute for a mop By Rachel Simon I was very optomistic before purchasing this product. I did not expect miracles but was disappointed in the performance of the product. The steam mop created a great deal of steam but cleaned my floor poorly. The water container had to be refilled four times to do my kitchen floor. The pads need to be changed often and are an annoyance to wash. The instructions say that the pads should be washed in cold water only with liquid detergent and should air dry. This makes it impractical to use without the purchase of additional pads. After cleaning the mop left my tile floor dull.The product may be better suited for use on a laminate wood floor. I ended up returning this item and getting a refund. Not worth the money I spent on it. I am disappointed as I was hoping that it would be the answer to cleaning our tile floors. 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Shark portable By Eliana Ruth This is a nice steam mop for the money. It works on my kitchen floors just fine.It doesn't get right into cornors but neither did my mop so you'll still have to wipe in hard to reach placesbut overall I am happy with this mop. It does get hot and steams well. I have no doubt any bad stuff on the floor is killed and sanitized.If I could change one thing it would be to have a little bigger of a water tank. I usually have to refill it one time do do my whole kitchen but that isn't a big deal.I would recommend it and am happy with mine. See all 3 customer reviews...
