Shark Steam Mop with 2 Machine Washable Dirt Grip Pads, Removable Water Tank, Lightweight, Steam Cleaner for sealed Hard Floors, Marble, Stone, Hardwood, Tile, Laminate, White/Seafoam, S1000

I bought this because I love my shark vacuums...yes, I own several. This mop is amazing. It cleans my kitchen and hardwood floors on setting one. It cleans the tiled bathrooms on setting three. I love that idea don't need smelly cleaners. It's quick and easy to use. It heats up in under a minute. You can flip the head and use both side without touching it. It pops off without touching it. I feel like it disinfects the floors which I love in the bathrooms. Floors dry almost immediately. The cord is long so I don't have to replug it often even though my house is large. Two things to note. It doesn't stand up well even when you lean it against something. Don't leave it stand on a hardwood or laminate floor after it is hot. It might damage the surface. It's fine on tile. I put mine in the closet immediately and never let it sit on the floor. I learned my lesson when it damaged the finish on my hardwood floor. I applied the finish I use and it immediately remedied the problem but I won't take that risk again. Worth the money. I am shocked at how dirty my floors are. The first time I used it, my husband had mopped the kitchen floor that morning. We couldn't believe how dirty the mop was when I was done which took my less than 10 minutes. The only thing I would change is that I wish I could bleach the mops to get them clean again.

My other shark steam mop that I had finally died. I was a little worried about this one because it's a little smaller and more sleek. I was worried it may not be as durable as my last one. This was a great purchase! It cleans great, steams nice and does the job! I wasn't crazy about the mop pads that come with it, but my other pads work with it as well. I love these things! It cleans so well! A couple of drops of essential oil on the floor and not only is it clean, but the whole room smell good too.

Works well, good maneuverability and easy to install and definitely will use again. Lost a 1 star because there could be more improvement.Work time: Definitely quicker than a manual mop and bucket. I see a difference in the tile floor and maybe after another couple uses, it will get toSTEAM: It's like hot steaming industrial clothes iron with thick fabric pad . Steam was good.GRIP PAD: Grip pad got all dirt off and hair strands, it was easy to remove and replace and it easy to wash (easier than a mop head). I wish there was a special pad for sticky hard stains.CORNERS & TIGHT SPACES. I have another accessory to get the tight corners (I had to use a damp microfiber cloth to get those spots) .WATER TANK: I had to replace water in the tank three or four times when using high setting in about 4 rooms (If the tank any bigger, the design would be too bulky). I wish there was red light when water level low.

I've had my Shark now for over two years and it's still going strong! I was honestly nervous after receiving my steam mop because it did feel a little flimsy. However, that being said...it would be tiring to use a heavy solid mop that holds added weight in water! We decided to go with the steam for several reasons but first, because my daughter suffers from severe allergies! This mop uses no cleaners and does a much better job than a traditional mop and bucket. I also liked the "green" factor of no cleaner and washable pads. I have washed and reused the cleaning pads too many times to count and not a single one of them is showing any signs of wear!! (not counting some staining of course) Also, one of my daughters accidentally dropped my Shark down the basement stairs and cracked the plastic housing...didn't effect the mop in the least. It feels no flimsier and hasn't worsened as I've continued using it...and it doesn't leak. It's plastic...I don't blame the mop for breaking when the same daughter dropped my cast iron pan down the same stairs and that also broke ;) We have finished hardwood floors, laminate floors, tiled floors, Allure floors and oiled pine floors...this mop works wonderfully on every one of them! I've used it to remove general dirt and grime, sticky nasties, wax, crayon, marker, paint, wood stove ash residue, unidentifiable kid & pet surprises and numerous food spills all with great success! I have recommended this mop several times and will do so several more times I'm sure! The only drawback, by the way, to steam mopping is during peak humid summer weather, although the added humidity during the dry winter months is great! ;)***UPDATE***Sadly my Shark pocket mop finally died :( It stopped making steam after 4 years! My super handy husband popped it open and removed one tiny little part and it worked again...but only for a couple more moppings. So...after four years of using the daylights out of it I am back to buy a new mop...just an FYI in those four years we have had 8 children, 2 adults, several animals and countless house guests traipsing in and out! I did the research...I read the reviews...I compared prices. For the money...I am buying another Shark Pocket Mop!Things I've learned...I originally bought the mop with several heads. I only used the rectangular one. I have an open floor plan so if you have tight spaces the triangular head may work better for you. I didn't use the carpet attachment either...with my daughter's allergies we got rid of all our carpeting...which means our entire house is bare, steam-moppable floors...this mop gets USED! Our house is not large...28x26, two and a half levels with moppable floors with a mostly open floor plan. The cord reached every area from one central outlet.**UPDATE** The cord on the new mop is shorter than the old one. I was disappointed, but it still mops the same...only now I have to move the plug to more than one outlet...not a deal-breaker for me** I also never had to buy replacement pads in the four years I've owned them! They are no longer white...but they still work beautifully! I occasionally tried the big purple fluffy pad that came with mine but I wasn't totally thrilled with it...maybe because it took longer to wet enough to clean with...admittedly I just want to get mopped and be done ASAP. If I came across an especially hard spot to get clean I simply (with shoes on!) stepped on the head and applied pressure and steam for several seconds and rarely had anything not come up...even cooled candle wax :) Most other mops don't look like you could step on the head without damaging it.By far my favorite feature is the reversible mopping surface! I mop half of one level (it actually could do more) then simply flip the mop over to mop the rest with the clean side! LOVE that! No changing scalding hot pads part way through a mop job or waiting for it to cool down enough to change it! I also got one level done on one tank of water with some left over :) AND...even though it said to use distilled water I never did....I used straight well water from the tap...and we have high iron in our water. I am most definitely a fan...especially for a price that's nearly half of many of the other steam mops out there!I am sorry that some other reviewers did not have the same experience I have had. I understand that this is an electronic appliance. My new one may have a manufacturing flaw that my old one didn't. You will get that with ANY electronic device...some will be flawless...others DOA. A definite pain, but for this mop, in my opinion...well worth the risk :) FOUR years...and 3 months to be exact! I totally got my money's worth!

I am so thankful for my steam mop! Makes cleaning the floor and easy dream. My entire 2 floors of my home, about 2,000 sq ft, are all hardwood flooring with a prefinish on them. Mopping with a standard mop, or a swifter, is time consuming and back breaking. This lovely item makes it so much easier, with the hot steam loosening up the dirt and grime and easily wiping it away. Changing pads is easy, and the water capacity is awesome. It also has a long cord, which makes getting around a full room and further easy. Very maneuverable around edges and corners. I think this is an excellent value machine from a great name brand. I have always poo-poo'd name brands as over-hyped and over-priced, but this one lives up to it's name and price point. Would recommend!

This is a dream. Light weight and so easy to use. Flips sides and the mop head pops off. It easily goes under furniture and is easily maneuverable. Does an excellent job and actually cleans the grout.
