BISSELL Powerfresh Slim Steam Mop, 2075A

When I had my grubby living room carpet replaced with tile I looked into ways to keep it (and my existing dining room /kitchen floor) clean. Must suggestions pointed to a steam mop. There are lots and lots of choices out there. I settled on this Bissel unit because it came with lots of tools (e.g., for grout, and countertops) and options. You can clean lots of surfaces with it . . . just not paint, please! It comes with a mount that lets you hang the mop and accessories on a wall. A little velcro straps lets you neatly coil the very long AC power cord. The terrycloth like mop heads get grubby quickly. I ordered the unit along with a set of OEM cloth mop heads. This lets you do a big job without having to pause to wash the mop heads. My one caveat: The unit seems fragile. The water tank is clear plastic; dropping the mop could easily shatter it.

If you have arthritis or carpal tunnel, I would not purchase this model, you have to hold the steam button down continuously and it gets really old and its very uncomfortable. I have been shopping for a new one of these for at least a year. I had to leave my old one at the old house as I didnt have room for some things on the moving truck, moving across country... I have been trying to look for the older Shark that I had and have not been able to find it, you plugged it in, and the steam would just produce, no buttons to hold down and it removed all things on my floors, I rarely had to get down to scrape anything up. This one does not do that. Even a coffee drop, takes more energy/water than it should. I never had to fill the water reservoir more than one time when doing my floors with the Shark, now I have to 3 times. Id like to return it, but I was so sure this was going to be the one, just based on the brand! I tossed the box and inserts away, so Im stuck with it. I do not want anyone else to make the same mistake. The Shark steamer I purchased years ago, was a fraction of the price, and worked so much better, unfortunately i was unable to find that one, I suspect its been replaced with a cheap, breakable like everything else these days.

I love using this instead of having to make a bucket of soapy water for my tile and laminate floors. I have a dog that has anxiety during thunderstorms or just hard rain. Occasionally, he will express his anxiety by urinating in my house (frustrating, but I would never consider parting with my rescue dog). This steam mop cleans up everything very well and I have put more than one pad in the washing machine with great success. I will never go back to a regular mop.

We bought this thinking it would leave our floors sparkling. However, I dont find it any better than just using a mop. A mop is much less trouble and cost 1/20th as much. I ended up donating this steam cleaner.

Its going to be easy for certain people. Its not super heavy but it has a bit of weight to it. And you have to hold the trigger down while in use. This can be annoying for some Im sure. I like it so my kids dont get hit with steam on accident. I use this on my toilet, my floors, my cabinets, my carpets to help get up stains. I would recommend getting extra washable pads though for all the sizes.

Nice product does the job great to use for all different things, but pretty heavy and annoying you have to hold ur finger on the trigger the hole time

Ive been wanting a steam cleaner for weeks now, and after I finally settled on this model (following loads of scouring the web), I was so excited when it arrived earlier this week! I mainly wanted it to make life easier when cleaning the shower/bathtub, so thats the first thing I tried it on. Set-up was a breeze; I found the unit very easy to fill, and it is also very easy to switch out the attachments (but maybe too easy, as I accidentally twisted one of them off during use in trying to get the right angle). As I began work on the shower, I did appreciate how easily it loosened up the grime but quickly saw the drawbacks to this product as well. #1, the pad gets too wet too quickly, especially when youre using the higher steam setting. #2, the unit shows its weight when youre cleaning vertical surfaces. #3, the attachments cant pivot, and in combination with the size of the unit, I wasnt able to get all the way to the bottom of my shower door before it hit the floor. I would have had to turn the unit upside down, which Im assuming isnt a great idea. #4, the level of steam was fairly inconsistent. All in all, I would say mission accomplished in that I didnt have to put in as much elbow grease to get my shower clean, but the process actually seemed to take longer because the brush attachments are so small. Where the unit did well was in the cracks and crevasses, for which I used the grout attachment. It was able to get rid of dirt that Id never be able to touch by hand. I have yet to tackle a floor surface, but thus far, Id say jurys still out on whether its worth the $130 investment. Final verdict: The first run this Bissell had here was also its last. The drawbacks I outlined initially were too much for me to look past, especially the steam being inconsistent. I returned the item for a refund.

All I can say is wow! I have been on my hands and knees trying to scrub the dirt off the shower floor, but this tool did the job! I couldnt get it off, I have used multiple cleaners, bleach, everything. This did it with no effort. I have not used the mop yet, but have confidence after the work its done to my shower and kitchen floors.

This steam mop is very versatile I’ve been able to clean the sliders on my windows more thoroughly than I think they’ve ever been cleaned. I use it to clean my walls, it’s able to fit in the little area behind the toilet, I’m able to clean the tops of my ceiling fans without a step stool now, my baseboard, and even the back splash in my kitchen. I used to have a shark steam mop which you have to push in the handle to activate the steam so it was only useful for floor cleaning. This one is a button so I can maneuver it in any direction a please. It also works for steaming fabric on the low setting… it’s a little more pricey than some other steam mops but it’s worth it in my opinion for sure.

I have installed new porcelain tile flooring throughout the house. A steam mop using distilled water was recommended by my installer because its perfect to keep the grout clean while sanitizing. He recommended staying away from cleaning products because there will eventually be a build up of residue. This steam mop works very well and is easy to use. I suppose any method of cleaning would be just as easy but the sanitizing and residue factor makes me favor this steam mop.
