Title: Freakin' AWESOME
Review: I have used Shark mops before and always loved them, but I was enticed by the allure of cordless mopping and regrettably switched to Swiffers and other mops of its type. BIG MISTAKE. My tile floors always looked disgusting and had horrible chemical buildup that left my floors constantly streaky and full of footprints. I was being driven insane, but I had an older model Shark that I lost the pads for. Started searching and came across this newer Shark and went for it. First of all, this model is genius, no pun intended. The ability to flip the head and use both sides to clean is AWESOME, and the standby mode is something I wished older Sharks had because sometimes you have to leave the mop sitting because you can't access the plug, and standby ensures that it's not just sitting there constantly making steam when idle. Being able to drop the mop head without having to touch it is a great feature. And the localized steam blast is a great touch that I'm glad they added. My floors are FINALLY CLEAN! And using just water! I also like the Low, Medium and High modes. And this Shark is actually attractive looking! The purple Sharks are cute, but this model is a lot nicer looking to me. I'm not even mad that I have to use a cord to mop, because it's quite long and allows me pretty good access all around the house with minimal unplugging. This model has soooo much more to it than my older Shark, so I'm glad I spent the $100 for this one - it's a great price. It has worked great for me so far and I'm glad I made this purchase!

Title: I wish I had gotten one sooner!
Review: I really enjoy how easy it is to clean my floors now. It's very lightweight and easy to take from room to room. It was very easy to assemble and I was cleaning in just a few minutes. I also love that it sanitizes my floors as well, which is important when you have pets. Definitely worth the money!

Title: It Works, for Crying Out Loud!
Review: So I finally got around to using the mop...Iâm really not overly fastidious, so Iâve had it for maybe six weeks. I bought this within a few days of my other steam mop giving up the ghost. And since I did have something to compare it to and since I read so many of the reviews, I was a little hesitant to dive in on this mop - or any steam mop. Theyâre not inexpensive and it is a bit of an investment. I think this cost about the same as my previous steam mop cost.Anyway, I decided to give it a try today. The instructions are reasonably clear; if youâve ever used a steam mop, Iâd imagine theyâre all similar anyway.I went large and bought the recommended distilled water for this mop. I donât know if thatâs why my other one failed, but thought itâs a reasonable cost to help ensure this one lasts a bit.Itâs super easy to fill using the little cup provided by the manufacturer. And in under thirty seconds, I had steam and was ready to mop.The cloth mop is easy to attach and stayed in without any issues.The cord is more than adequate for my purposes; my kitchen isnât very large. It does get in the way a bit, but there is a little guide attached to the handle. I slipped the cord in there and that helped.The biggest issue with this mop is that, as others have mentioned, it has no way to secure the whole thing in an upright position. I propped it up against something that held it in place. And it stayed out and didnât slide down when propped up, so thatâs a plus.The mop head is on a cool swivel mechanism, which makes it easy to slide under and around immovable objects. But it also feels like Iâm operating a drunken sailor. The mop head has a mind of its own. The instructions say to mop in a "forward and backward motion." This is easier said than done and takes a little getting used to. If there was a locking mechanism of some sort, Iâd go all the way with five stars. Thatâs all that holds me back.I really like the option of low-medium-high settings. As I have a laminate floor in the kitchen, I set it at low. I was a bit doubtful this would be enough. But to my surprise and delight, itâs more than adequate. It honesty took me longer to the ready the kitchen to mop than it did to actually mop. The steam dries incredibly fast - but, it is summer so it's warm. It might be different when the weather cools.I gave the cloth mop head a quick clean in the sink directly after mopping. In the past, I found this helped to keep them from staining so badly. The mop heads do get really dirty, you know. So I was happy this was easy enough to wash in the sink with a little Dawn dish soap. Iâll wash it with towels later, but for now itâs clean-ish and drying in the laundry area.All-in-all, Iâm very happy with this purchase and Iâd recommend it to anyone who just wants to mop floors and get on with life.

Title: Love This! Lightweight and Easy to Use
Review: This is my first time owning/using a steam cleaner. It's so easy to use. I use it on our hardwood and tile floors. My only complaint is that I wish it held more water so I don't have to refill it several times when cleaning the entire main level of the house. It was definitely worth the money and saves me from having to use a regular mop or the Swiffer wet cloths.

Review: Love this steamer. My first steamer so I have no other product to compare it to, but it does a great job cleaning. Cord is long which is a bonus. The dirt on the mop cloth after a cleaning on my ceramics is impressive, and tiles have never looked better. (Use the highest steam setting for ceramics). However this model does not have a grout cleaner head, so doesn't get into the groves for my grout, but I am ok with that.For my hardwood, I have found for it to work best that you need a brand new clean mop cloth after cleaning ceramics (buy extra for yourself separately, you will need them), and put on lowest steam setting. Move quick over wood, and then always rest the steamer on a ceramic area of your home if taking break from hardwood floor cleaning, not on the wood as too much water sitting on hardwood is bad for the wood. I like to buff damp hardwood floor with a separate dry hardwood floor mop, one that I already had, as this takes off the damp haze that might form, which makes the hardwood floor look shiny brilliant! I also use the same technique for my basement's laminate wood floors, and works really well there as well.I actually love cleaning my floors now and don't avoid it, lol!
