Steam Mop Demo (Shark) Review

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
  • I decided to try a steam mop for cleaning my kitchen and bathroom floors. My kitchen and hallway floor are made of pergo and the bathroom is linoleum. The bathroom doesn't get nearly as much dirty foot traffic as the kitchen does and so that is why I concentrated my efforts there in the video.
    I chose the Shark over other brands because of cost. Most of the more expensive mops seemed to do the same thing, but were significantly more money. They usually came with more re-usable pads, but that didn't justify the increase in price to me.
    The Shark is lightweight and easy to handle/maneuver. It's not complicated and can be used on most flooring. I like that it dries quickly and also picks up stray dog hair that the broom or vacuum may have missed. Take a look at the video and see if it's the right mop for you!

    Came here for the Shark. Stayed for the Rooster. Thanks for the video!

    Loved the rooster! The video was so informative and pleasant. I think all of us can identify with floors that we would hate to have unexpected guests see. I do and it is also on a daily basis. Plus our four rescued indoor cats really enjoy their food and are sloppy eaters. 🙂 Thank you so much for visiting and sharing.

    Thanks, good information. My husband brought home this little steamer from a friend at work , so I'm going to try it. I got some pads from Amazon pretty cheap, they look good so I'm ready to go! Growing up my Dad had me clean our kitchen floor the hard way ... hands and knees, scrubber, 2 buckets; one soapy, one to rinse. This looks way easier.

    This was helpful to me because I didn't know you had to put the handle down to get it to work. - Thank-you.

    Ps TIP: you wet the pad & squeeze it out before putting it on the unit, you'll start up faster!
    Caveat: deep dirt & floorboards still need closer attention but once it's done it'll look brand new....

    Really great demonstration! I was gifted one when we bought our house(I guess it wasn’t wanted by previous owner and was left behind) and was interested in how it worked. Now I know how it works!

    This is my second steamer mop. I love it. My 17yr old son just gave me one for my birthday which was last month in Dec. I’m super excited and did t waste time using it. 😊

    I love that you legitimately cleaned your real home and the everyday “messes” that come along in life. Thank you. I was offered this older model for free, which is amazing. But wanted to look into before bringing it home to make sure that it actually performs. The last thing I need is yet another gadget that claims almost miraculous cleaning ease and efficiency, only to find that it’s complete garbage. I will definitely get this steam mop after watching your video. Thank you,
    ❤️ from Shannon in Canada 🇨🇦

    Oh honey, I know exactly what he's doing to your mop! You won't like it!
    I have a tiny kitchen. I'm sick of the hands and knees stuff. My swiffer just isn't quite enough.
    Thanks for the review. I found a refurb on Amazon for $35. I don't think I'll need anything bigger.
    I grew up on a farm. I love your background noises!

    Thanks for the demo, it looks good. No short cuts for your baseboards, they badly need a bucket of soapy water and a tooth brush.

      And how. Good video. As for the shark? I had a bad experience. It came free with the vacuum so nothing ventured; nothing gained. I think I will probably not plug it in but spray the floor and then go over it with a dry cloth a few times and see how that works.

    Amazing gadget. I clean for a living & 2 of 3 accounts have this for use. It's so useful for doing the job quick- no tears!!!
    So I'm buying one to show it off to client #3 (he has a huge kitchen)---
    & to have it for my own house!!
    WORTH IT!!!!

    Thanks...I put some stuff on the street and some junker picked up some of mine and left a shark steam mop that come to find out is in good shape, pad and all and is in working order...so now I know how to use it wiped it down. Rinsed out the pad and...free steam mop! Cool! I can get the stuff dripped on my kitchen floor after sweeping.

    • @HomesteadingWays
      @HomesteadingWays  8 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Yes, unless your floors are unfinished. If you have sealed wood, vinyl, linoleum, or tile floors, you would use this as you would a regular mop. Btw, there are no dumb questions! ;) Thanks for watching!

      You could try it. The steam kind of acts like boiling water where the heat should lift up any dirt.

    The Shark Sucks. Your place is filthy and I can see this working for you to remove your "baked-on-caked-on" but where this fails is the finish. I get nothing but streaks on my floors. that makes this thing a fail.

    • @HomesteadingWays
      @HomesteadingWays  7 ปีที่แล้ว +32

      My "place" wasn't filthy. You saw small sections of my kitchen floor that was yes, dirty. Hence the need for it to be cleaned. At the time we lived in a small farmhouse with the kitchen door being the main entrance. People (and 2 dogs) brought in dirt and gravel everyday. We raised small livestock, too. Floors get dirty when physical work is drug through the door. I appreciate your positive comment. I still like the shark.
