Needs longer cord.

I had an old steam mop that I loved using on my new wood floors. When it finally broke I was not sure where to turn. There are a lot of different models out there at a lot of different prices. Though the cord could be longer, this steam mop works as well or better than my last one. One feature I really like is you can get additional pads for the mop. The one that came with it washed up nicely when I put it in the washing machine. I will deal with a little shorter cord to have these other two advantages.

it does what I wanted it to do. steam clean the floor.

On the contrary. Youre supposed to lift up the whole thing into the sink and aim the faucet correctly into the small hole?! Fill a watering can maybe, or use a funnel and pour water into the small hole through the funnel? Ridiculous.

It’s wonderful for a small place but if you have a large place like I do, 3000 sqft buy the larger version. But it does clean well. It only came with one pad so please know although washable make sure you grab some extra pads.

Being that I have never had a steam mop before, I can only compare this one to of the wide variety of regular mops I’ve owned – and for my needs, this one worked great! I have well water, so I only use distilled water in every appliance that requires water to operate; therefore, filling the tank was a non-issue for me. I just laid it down, opened it up, and poured the water in. The water heated up quickly and then I couldn’t believe how much faster and easier it was to mop my floors than using a regular mop. The best part was the tough stuff that I always had to get down and scrub with a brush – the steam took it off without any effort. I can see where the cord length could be a problem for people that have hardwood floors and have a lot of area to cover, but for me, only my bathrooms, kitchen and entryway are linoleum or tile – so the cord length wasn’t a problem. I would’ve had to move the cord no matter what and if I had a longer cord, it would’ve been in my way. Overall, I am really happy with this steam mop and I wish I had gotten one long ago.

I absolutely love this steamer. Its lightweight and very easy to use. It starts to steam in a few seconds.

There is no bottom hook to wrap the cord around. This is something that should definitely be there! The cord is short. A lot shorter than the one I currently had.
