  • This mop Shark Genius Steam Pocket Mop came as a gift that I asked for - and boy is it awesome!
    The geniuses at Shark really came through on this one. The mop cleans and sanitizes with just water! You can't beat that. No harsh chemicals or cleaners needed to get your floors cleaned.
    I share everything I learned about it from the moment it came out of the box. Including the fact that I thought you could just flip the mop head and use the other side - NO - see instructions at 1:54 for using the clean side of the Dirt Grip Pad.
    For a 2-dog family, this mop is a big deal.
    The model I have is S5003D. And no, I don't get paid for this, it really is the best helpful tool that's come along in a long time and I want everyone to know.

    The absolute BEST tutorial on this by far. I couldn't figure out how to put the mop head on and looked at so many tutorials until I found yours. Yours was the ONLY one that showed how to put the head on the mop. Thank you! This was so concise and easy to watch. Wonderful!

    Instructions say do not add essential oils to water tank. If you want the floor to smell good you can add essential oils to a small cloth and put it inside between the mop head pad, so that the steam can reach the exterior essential oil and the floor without damaging the internals of the steamer mop itself. Cheers 😽

    I thought there was a swivel-action that allowed you to flip to the clean side of the pad. Thank you for showing how to do that in your video. I've had other steam mops and this one works very well. NOTE TO NEW STEAM MOP USERS: Use distilled water and don't put any essential oils, bleach, Lysol, etc. in the tank. It will clog the steam holes over time (been there, done that). I lightly spray my floors with a natural scent mixture before I use the mop. That works well for me.

    Since the pandemic, I have been cleaning my unit more frequently. I find myself referring back to this video before steam mopping. Not certain why I always put mopping off. The unit is easy to use and does a great job. Also, I lift the unit and vertically clean the base-boards and lower cabinets. Not sure what type of paint the owner used in the kitchen, but the cabinets get sticky and are hard to clean. The steam does a decent job : ) We always look over my work and think: "Wow! the kitchen floor looks great!"

    Ok I see that the marketing is stating that the floor is cleaned using only water...but how? I understand that heat may take care of some of the bacteria but if steam and water werethe only thing that we needed to deep clean anything then there would never have been a need for disinfectant - we would have just steamed everything! So how do we actually know that this steam mop gets rid of bacteria that can come from say.....dog or cat accidents?

      Do you know if it was previously treated with a product like Mop & Glo? Some products level a residue on the surface to give a floor "shine." So that's my best guess. 👌

    Great instructional video!
    I bought this unit used from Amazon and it worked great about 4 or 5 times. Today, it heated up all right, but did not spray any steam onto the pad. Nothing different between last use and today and I can’t see anything wrong with it. Dismantled it and put the constituent parts back together. Using soft and “RO” (reverse osmosis filter) water and it looks like some water dribbled out, but no steam even though the internal element heated up. Any suggestions?
    Found it on sale again at Amazon and bought a new one with a decent return timeframe. But, if I can get the first one to work, I will have extra for our winter condo.

      Yes, by far. But don't take my word for it, buy one from a store that has a liberal return policy. If you're not thrilled with its performance, you can return it. I've used Shark mops with and without steam power blaster, both work great.

  • @MartinParnham
    @MartinParnham ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Getting the pad on the mop head is more difficult than you make it look! I've found it to be a bit of a faff but it probably gets easier the more you wash and use pads as the pockets will probably slacken a little.
    The jug doesn't fill up the water tank to the fill line, so you need about one-and-a-bit jug's worth of water. You're better off just using a bigger jug. I don't understand why Shark would supply a jug that doesn't hold enough water fill the tank up. Minor moan but I don't get it!
