As Seen On TV Shark Steam Mop Review

I wanted one of these for months before I actually broke down and bought it.  It was easy to assemble and I was up and running in just a few minutes. 

The first thing I noticed was that the funnel and water cup would have to be stored separately.  Not a huge inconvenience since I could use the "under the sink" space I would be saving from the floor cleaners.

Filled the tank and the steam started  within seconds.  Started mopping (floor was already swept) and I couldn't believe how hard it was to push the mop.  It took alot of work to move it,  The mop did clean my ceramic kitchen tiles and after doing half the floor, the pad was visibly dirty so I switched to a new one. 

I tried the new pad on my wood tiles and I wasn't impressed.  I assume the mop was cleaning well but it left the floors really dull.  It left the wood fairly wet so I had to dry the area with a paper towel.  After I cleaned and dried 1/2 the floor, I compared it to the "dirty" side and it didn't look good at all.  My husband thought the clean side was actually the dirty side since it looked so dull.  With the extra work I had to do to dry the floor, I'm not sure that the mop was worth the investment. 

 I decided to return the mop and figured out pretty quicky that it couldn't be dissasembled to bring it back to the store.
