Shark Steam Pocket Mop

This really is a great mop. It uses only steam for cleaning. It's very easy to use and does a very good job cleaning the hardwood and tile floors. The triangle head makes it easy to use in the bathroom and on the hardwood stairs, and the large head makes cleaning large rooms very quick. It gets muddy paw tracks up very quickly and completely. The wet residue left on the floor dries very quickly, so you don't have to worry about damaging hardwood. If you have a stubborn stain you can spray some other type of cleaner on the floor before running over it with the mop.

It's very light weight and has a very long cord. We cleaned our whole kitchen, living room, dining room, and foyer on less than one tank of water in probably around 20 minutes, and only had to move the plug once. The hardwood was nice and shiny when we were done.

Compared to other mops I have used to clean the hardwood floors, it does a better job in less time with less effort/elbow grease.

The only real downside is having to wash the head covers all the time. Extras can be purchased, but that's an added cost.

Value: 4/5 - It's kind of pricey, but works very well and in the long run should save money because there are no disposable pads or bottles of cleaner that you have to buy.
Quality: 5/5 - I haven't found any problems with it yet. It works as advertised, is well built, and gets the floors nice and clean.
Ease of Use: 5/5 - Very easy to fill and use.
Feasibility of Sexual Encounters: 0/5 - Come on, nobody gets hot over a mop.
OVERALL: 4.5/5 - Would be 5/5 if it was maybe $25 cheaper

LoL! I think it'd be kinda painful to makeout with a steam mop though... unless you're into that sorta stuff.

Have you tried steaming your carpets with it?

haven't used the carpet glider attachment yet. it won't suck anything out of the carpet though, just freshen it up. it occurred to me this attachment could also be used to dewrinkle clothes or sheets. :lol:
