Bissell Steam Mop Review

i saw the reviews for this mop on this site... ended up buying it from HSN.com... and i adore it!!! i've been looking for a good mop for my floor for so long! we put in saltillo tile last year and have had the hardest time cleaning it!!! i can't use any chemicals on this tile, so this mop is great in that i just use water. and i don't have to worry about using the nasty water in a mop bucket or my sink. the pads are so easy to just throw in the washer to clean. and the floor dries quickly.

the only con to this is that we have wide grout lines that tend to dip down a bit, so water does collect some in these. but it did that with regular mops too. so i just take a towel after i'm done with the house and clean up any water that has collected. most people with normal tile or linoleum will not experience this problem though.

the cord is short, like others have said. but i don't particularly like dragging around a cord anyway and will usually plug something in in each room i move to. i filled up the water tank 3 times for an 1800-sq-ft home fully covered in tile (still not a problem compared to rinsing my old mop in nasty water). i read before that someone thought it to be a bit short. i am 5'11" but i didn't notice a problem with that when i was using it. maybe i'm just used to having to bend a bit due to my height.

i think this was money well spent for me! i'm a very thrifty shopper and buy few luxuries, but it was well worth it for as much as i clean this darn tile. plus, since we have all tile, i save a bit on not having to have a wonderful vacuum, so i have this instead :)
