SF-290 Floor Steam Mop and Multi-Purpose Steamer Review

SF-290 Floor Steam Mop and Multi-Purpose Steamer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I stumbled upon this item, when searching to get the new Shark steam floor mop, which is being advertised on TV. Unable to find a way to get the "free" mop covers for the unit online, I bumped into this item and found that it seemed much more versatile, for less than what the Shark is selling for. The unit can be used to clean just about anything, while the Shark mop is strictly a floor mop. I had missed the Scunci Steamer I had, which conked out after just about a year of very light use. Very dissappointing. When it worked, it did a great job, but it was not a floor cleaner. This SF-290 is better than both the Shark and the Scunci, for my purposes, because it does everything. I have a one bedroom apartment, and it cleans everything in it just fine. My kitchen floor has never been cleaner, and there is no sticky residue or chemical smell; just clean and fresh. I can freshen the carpeting, and it even removed some stubborn stains that I could not get out, no matter how much scrubbing I'd done. I freshen the furniture as well, which is great to combat my allergies. I don't know if a unit this small would work in a large house, but for a smaller area, it works great! A tip is to turn the mop cover inside out and use it on the other side before washing it. You can also remove it, rinse it out and continue using it for a time. I ordered additional Bissell mop covers, since I figured one would not be enough.

This is my 3rd steam cleaner and by far this is the best. The Steamboy is the easiest to use. Just fill up the removable container with water and go, no waiting as the last 2 mops did. The point on the mop helps it get into the corners. I use the steam because I have 4 animals and the steamboy cleaner leaves my floor sanitized without using chemicals.

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

Oreck Steam-It Steam Mop Review

Oreck Steam-It Steam Mop
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Let me start by saying that I am a huge Oreck fan. I think that they make quality products that do what they say they do. However, I can't say that this product measures up. They are on the right track but have several details to work out yet. I already own a Shark steam mop but find the handle to be a little short (I am tall) and it doesn't hold enough water to do my whole kitchen area with one fill. I was quite excited to hear that Oreck had a steam mop. I went to the Oreck store and got a demo. I commented then that the 'pad' was loose and coming off while he mopped, and that the head of the mop was being uncooperative during the carpet refresh demo. He made excuses for all so I bought the steam mop. The mop holds about a gallon of water, and has a very tall handle and a long cord. All good things. The quality and construction are excellent. However, the first thing you notice is that it weighs more than your vaccuum. The pad is actually a piece of cotton duck fabric about a foot square with a strip of terry cloth like fabric down the center. Picture a baby diaper from 20 years ago. You lay that on the floor and use those yellow tabs in the picture to pinch the loose ends of the cloth under the yellow tab. I began to mop and noticed right away that the steam production is fast and strong, good, but the mop is very very hard to push. It is heavy and awkward to move and now I know why the salesman spent so much time showing me the shoulder movement I should use to push the mop back and fowards. The forward motion caused everything I picked up with the mop to be pushed into a line of bits and fuzz on the floor so I tried to turn the mop and capture the fuzzy stuff. Immediately the pad came unclipped. I repositioned the pad and tried again. Again the pad came off. I tried to mop around the bathroom toilet, pulling it longways along the side of the toilet, the pad came off. Each time I pulled the mop towards myself, the head of the mop leaves the floor, tilting on its back edge and drags back to me. When I push forward, it flattens out again. The mop handle stores all the water and electronics and weighs close to 10 lbs, the mop head on the other hand is a lightweight hollow piece of plastic. The design of the head is bad because it can't compete with the weight of that handle and because it is like a box, not a flat pad holder. I could not mop under the water shut off valves behind the toilet because the head is too tall and boxxy, nor under the kitchen cupboard kickspace nor under the door backstops along the molding, all because of the height of the head. Each of these places had to be done separately without the steam mop. Lots of rework that day and lots of frustration. It has a snap on piece for the head that lets it glide on carpet so I tried that as well. Like what I saw in the store demo, each stroke out was great, each stroke back found the head flipping up on its back and bouncing back or dragging back towards me. I really can't imagine that the tester of this product actually tried mopping or steaming with it before it was release to market. And yes, I tried bending down lower, changing my angle, going faster, slower, none of it helped. It has 2 rocker switches on the handle covered by a rubbery plastic box. One controls power, the other steam. After leaving the mop for several hours, I came back to find that the power\preheat switch light was out, but that the mop was hot. The switch wasnt fully off, just looked like it. Because of the rubbery box around the switches, it is hard to tell if a switch is completely clicked in one direction or the other and obviously the led on the switch isn't so sure either. Thats a fire hazard in my book. I have boxed this Oreck back up, first thing I have ever returned to Oreck, but it is going back and when they come out with a new improved model, I will give that a try. For now, I really don't think this design is ready for public consumption, too many engineering issues to work out.
The good:
Great construction, holds nearly a gallon of water, produces really good steam really fast, long cord.
The bad:
The water weighs far to much, handle pushes down so hard it makes the head flip up on every backstroke
The power switches are difficult
It is too heavy and awkward to be used as a window washer or steam cleaner as shown in the commercials. Imagine hoisting your heavy full size vacuum up to your windows or stove to clean with it.
The pad is useless because nothing sticks to it, it just collects anything it finds and leaves it at the end of your stroke, it needs to be more like the shark pad, thick, soft and absorbant.
The design of the yellow pad pinchers is rediculous, they don't keep the pad in place if you turn the mop head even a little - the pad comes off immediately. They are similar to a chip clip and are trying to hold a wet cotton cloth under pressure while moving. Not happening.
The head to too tall, can't mop under anything normal, and it is too light to stay positioned on the floor when fighting with the weight of the handle.

iRobot Scooba 350 Floor-Washing Robot Review

iRobot Scooba 350 Floor-Washing Robot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I actually own the 380 model. I consider my floor clean only if I was on my hands and knees cleaning the floor. With four boys it is a everyday affair and I always do not have the time or energy to scrub my floors.
I put the scooba to a test after a day of spilled tea and sugar on the floor along with the muddy footprints. I swept the floor and set it loose. It cleaned up everything, even the areas that I missed from the broom. The only areas the scooba does not clean are corners, but it will free up your time to clean other areas in the house.

Click Here to see more reviews about: iRobot Scooba 350 Floor-Washing Robot

For reliably clean floors including sealed hardwood, tile, and linoleum, this award-winning floor-washing robot can handle up to 500 square feet on a single battery charge. Its four-stage cleaning process includes the prep stage, which picks up dirt, sand, and crumbs; the washing stage, which uses only clean solution (mops just spread around dirty water); the scrubbing stage, which removes dirt, grime, and stuck-on messes; and the drying stage, which squeegee lifts dirty water from floors. The cleaning machine uses clean tap water, a water and vinegar mixture, or deep-cleaning, fresh-scented Clorox Scooba cleaning solution. In addition, it avoids carpets, rugs, ledges, and stairs thanks to its cliff-sensing technology. The unit conveniently self navigates throughout each room cleaning beneath cabinet edges, tables, chairs, and other hard-to-reach places. The robot's autonomous cleaning pattern covers each area of floor an average of five times, and one full tank washes up to 250 square feet before it requires refilling. Accessories include one 8-ounce bottle of Clorox Scooba cleaning solution, a measuring cup, a suction bulb (to prep and maintain the pump), an APS battery, a power supply and charging base, a storage mat, and an owner's guide. One Virtual Wall also comes included to mark off-limit areas with an infrared beam that the robot will not cross (requires two D batteries, not included). The floor-washing robot measures 14-3/4 by 14-3/4 by 3-1/2 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

Euro-Pro SC014 Mini Steam Zapper Review

Euro-Pro SC014 Mini Steam Zapper
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I own a three year old Eureka Enviro Steamer that has gotten pretty worn and leaks water readily now, so I bought a big Euro-pro Steamer that I thought was way too loud for little jobs and just tried this Mini Steam Zapper today and give it two stars max.
The Zapper weighs more than 5 pounds which feels rather heavy for its size when full of water, but the water capacity is less than 10 ounces or 300 ml. That amount of water lasted less than 30 minutes and the Zapper did not even finish cleaning two small round bathroom sinks.
It is cute but ineffective, heavy, and just as noisy as the big steamer. Get the big steamer - it's replacing my old Enviro-steamer on the floors and does the little jobs better than this mini steamer. This mini steamer is not worth the price.

I purchased this steamer and used it for about 2 weeks and then it leaked huge puddles of water all over my hard wood floors. I called the company and they told me to return it for repair. I did and they kept it for a month before returning it to me. I used it for another week and the same thing happened. I returned it and they kept it for another 2 months before returning it to me. Once again it leaked. I asked them to please replace it with a new one. They sent a new one a month later, and it leaked just like the first. I asked for my money back and they refused because it was over the three month period. I paid over $700.00 for it and it was like throwing money away. I feel like they stole my money. I recommend that you stay clear from this company! Shame on them!

Having Hickory hardwood floors and ceramic throughout the home is nice, but very laborious to upkeep. I elected to try this out to avoid numerous ours of mopping and cleaning. Excellent design, works well, brightened all surfaces, and saved time. There are never enough hours in the day, so this was a good choice. The only improvement might be a longer power cord.

HAAN DUO Steam Sweeper & Floor Sanitizer HD-50 Review

HAAN DUO Steam Sweeper and Floor Sanitizer HD-50
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wanted a steam cleaner that vacuumed and steam mopped, independently or simultaneously...this machine does that, but...
1. Claims to not wet floors as much as other steam mops...not true...puts down a lot of moisture...floors remain wet after steaming. I have to go over with a towel to dry...and towel is dirty every time...so, the steam may disinfect as it claims, but it just does not clean up the dirt and debris...the cleaning pads are very thin and get soiled easily unlike the Shark steam pocket mop.
2. Claims to be easy to use...not true. The cord is forever coming off the handle. If left sitting on its provided "mat" for just a moment (while moving furniture out of the way, etc) it leaks out a lot of water. It leaks out a lot of water when first plugged in and waiting for unit to heat up too.
3. Claims to vacuum....actually, it bristles up debris, but does not do a great job of that...the debris gets caught up in the front where the brush is and since the debris is wet from the steam (if steaming at the same time while vacuuming) then it will drop wet debris back on to the floor especially if bumped.
4. Claims to not use as much water as other steam models...not true, I have to fill the reservoir 3xs more compared to the Shark Steam cleaner.
5. Handle is extremely long and not adjustable...difficult to use for steaming under beds.
6. Claims "hands-free" soiled pad removal...not really. While the steam plate can be removed by foot, you still have to use your hands to pull the pad off the steam plate.
I own a Shark Steam mop and it works great, but I didn't like their steam/vacuum mop as the vacuum and steam functions cannot be used simultaneously.
Definitely returning and will go back to vacuuming with a vacuum and steam mop with the Shark floor steam mop until a better machine is discovered/created.

Haan HD-50 Duo Steam Sweeper and Floor Sanitizer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'll admit I'm a person who dislikes housework with a passion--but I'm a stickler for a clean and sanitary environment. Since the kitchen and the bathrooms are the most heavily traveled and visited, I was especially drawn to the Haan Duo Steam Sweeper and Sanitizer, beacause it was able to tackle a few tasks at the same time. Originally when I had to mop the floor, I'd sweep the area, fill two buckets: one with hot water and Mr. Clean--and the other bucket with clear, cold rinse water. And then the process of trying to clean the floor would begin...
After the floor finally dried, there was always a slight disinfectant residue that felt tacky whenever I'd walk across what I thought was a clean floor.
When I opened my Haan-Duo, the first place I thought I'd try the machine was the prep area in my kitchen. Between the grease and food stains, footprints, scuff marks, and crumbs, I thought if something as simple as water/steam could clean and sanitize that
mess--then it was worth every penny.
The first pass in the prep area was absolutely amazing! Not only did the Haan-Duo pick up the things I had been able to see, but it went deeper into the floor to clean things I couldn't see. My flooring is rather old, but after one cleaning, the luster I thought was gone came right back to life. Grey tiles I thought were part of the color pattern on the floor were dazzlingly white. For the first time, in a long time, the floor looked fantastic!
I then completed the bathrooms. The grout in between the tiles was perfectly clean. I tried it on my hard wood floors--and the same consistent results made the floor look like new in minutes!
The Haan-Duo is light, compact, and it delivers every time I've used the product. My only critique of the system is that it is difficult to really get in and around the back end of the toilet area because of its width. If there were an attachment, perhaps shaped like a triangle, it would get to the hard to reach spaces without any trouble. If indeed, Haan makes a hand-held model with the varying heads, I'd purchase it in a heartbeat.
The velcro pads pick up every bit of floor residue, and then when I'm finished cleaning, I wash the pads out with gentle soap, and put them in the sun to dry.
The Haan-Duo us very eco-friendly. No more do I have to worry about allergic reactions from cleaning products. The surfaces are sanitized in a natural way--without chemicals.
It's really made my workload so much easier!

THANE H20 MOP STEAM CLEANER Review

THANE H20 MOP STEAM CLEANER
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
While nothing will ever really replace the Cinderella-style of hands and knees scrubbing, this mop certainly is better than pulling out the regular mop and bucket of luke warm brown water.
It is sturdy enough and easy to assemble. its easy to use and does a great job of cleaning without chemicals. Sticky juice spills in the kitchen come up quickly and easily and the sanitizing feature is great for the area just in front of the bathroom toilet where men can never seem to avoid. lol.
The cord was plenty long enough for the rooms in my house, since I dont live in a mansion with huge rooms. And I was able to clean my kithen ceramic tile in less time than it took my husband to go outside and smoke a leisurly cigarette. The floor dried much faster than with regular mopping but I could see spots of dampness here and there when I was done so I am not sure how safe i would feel using it on hardwood floors.
The cons: it only comes with 2 reusable pads. So after the kitchen and bathroom I had to stop and wait for the wash before I could do the hall bath and the downstairs bath. Plus I felt I could redo the kitchen a 2nd time since the pad was so filthy the first time around. So you really do need to buy more pads.
Also, it does NOT do grout. If you have a spill in the grout lines the best you can do is 'sanitize' the spot (holding the mop there for 8 seconds) to loosen the dirt and then manually wiping clean with a rag or paper towel.
Finally, while the swivel head is easy to manever, it really does not get into corners all that well. And much like regular mopping, you have to sweep well or vacuum first or else you will just be pushing around crumbs or hair which will collect along baseboards and corners.
Since this is a great novelty mop, and since I love that I dont have to buy cleaners, I would definetely recommend this mop for people who like to keep their floors clean, and are sick of the mop and bucket style of cleaning. My floors are cleaner and I look forward to using it again when those stupid pads go through the wash again. lol.

SharperTek Steam Cleaning Floor Mop w/ Pads Review

SharperTek Steam Cleaning Floor Mop w/ Pads
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had researched several different steam mops and maybe they are all like this one and I am just thinking they would do something different than what they do.
But, I personally am disappointed with the idea of a 'steam mop'.
The steam mop left the floors VERY wet. I had thought that it would produce very hot steam that would almost be dry when mopping. This would then allow for the sanitizing and sparkling clean that I thought I would have.
Instead, the mop left the floors SO wet my feet were wet walking on it. It took a long time to dry and I didn't feel the floors were any cleaner. I used it on my sealed wood floor and it was soaking wet and left streaks.
I guess if you are mopping with a regular mop already and having to squeeze it out and use a bucket, this would be great. But if you are wanting something that won't leave your floors as wet as a regular mop, then this is not it.
The cord is short so plan to unplug and move to another outlet. Also, you have to REALLY pay attention as you are mopping and not leave it on and keep it in one spot for even 15 seconds. If the phone rings or a child needs you, turn it off as otherwise it will leave a stain on your floor.
The water does get really hot and it is nice to have the cloths that are washable although the little cord that tightens the cloth kept falling below the mop.
I did like that it is distributed in the US by a local company. When it arrives, you do need to screw in the handle as well as the bottom part but it comes with clear directions and the screws.
I am going back to my dry mop with washable cloth pads and a spray I use on the floor.

Recently purchased this item latter part of Dec 2007. It's going back as soon as a return authorization is obtained. This unit is big and bulky and does NOT lend itself well to being a very useful "handheld", everyday tool, and I found it's accessories uncomfortable to use. Also, I felt it was slow getting "up to steam" and it felt "heavy" with a full load of water. Additionally, it seemed to not want to work properly when the unit wasn't particularily level. Steam cleaning, in principle, is a great idea, but it seems this product's adaptation and implementation of the principle is not good.

I thought I would try this to save some money and to see if this line of household cleaning appliances would work for me. I was ready for cosmetic flaws...I mean who really cares if there is a scrape on their floor cleaner? What I was not ready for, was a unit that just looked like it was thrown in the box and had not been refurbished AT ALL. My main complaint is that the brush heads that were supplied looked like they had been cleaning someones driveway. I've used better looking brush heads on my car wheels. The bottom retension bracket for the power cord was also broken off and was loose in the box...nice work Hoover.
"Remanufactered: to refurbish (a used product) by renovating and reassembling its components", that is the definition and I feel that Hoover should have never let one of their reman products ship out without NEW brush heads. The brush head is a critical wear item it and it is ludicrous to sell this floor cleaner with the same brush it was returned with.
All that said, I give it two stars because it does work and I would buy one again...BUT ONLY NEW. Now I have to waste time trying to glue broken pieces and find a replacement brush head.

With its 15-inch-wide cleaning path, this revolutionary all-in-one cleaner can be used to not only vacuum dry debris, but also to wet-clean and squeegee-dry most hard-floor surfaces including ceramic tile, sealed hardwood, marble, vinyl, and laminate. Quickly switch between cleaning options--vacuum, wash, or dry--with a simple turn of the dial. Exclusive SpinScrub brushes gently and safely wet-scrub and buff hard floors, plus they pop out for rinsing clean.In addition, the cleaner's fingertip trigger control allows for choosing where, when, and how much cleaning solution to apply. Separate solution and recovery tanks ensure dirty water never gets put back onto the floor, and both 1/4-gallon-capacity tanks remove for convenient filling or emptying. Other highlights include a powerful 6 amp motor, a 27-foot power cord, and a fold-down handle for storing. The hard-floor cleaner measures approximately 20 by 15-1/2 by 45 inches and carries a six-month limited warranty.
Editor's note: This is a remanufactured appliance. Remanufactured generally means that the appliance has been returned to the manufacturer, who returns the appliance to like-new condition. Some appliances may contain cosmetic blemishes.
