BISSELL Powerfresh Slim Steam Mop, 2075A

Been using it weekly, got the extra cleaning pads etc. The only down side so far is the power cords are really annoyingly long.

I rarely write reviews, but this powerful little steamer deserves one! We recently bought an older home and it took 20 year old tile floor grout from black to a beautiful cream. And I had already used about every home grout remedy and strong grout chemical out there. Wish I had taken before and after pictures. And the tile is textured with multiple shades of cream - or so I thought. The darkest color was actual just dirt- gross! This steamer is nothing short of amazing, no more strong chemicals here!

I should have listened to the negative reviews. Instead, I relied upon Consumer Reports rating the Bissell PowerFresh Slim Steam Mop as the best. I think they got it all wrong and intend to let them know. First of all, it is heavier than any other steam mop I’ve owned. Plus, in order to get continuous steam, you must keep the trigger pressed. These two issues wouldn’t be show stoppers, if everything else was great. When I use a steam mop, I want to see steam...and lots of it...to know it is working. If I lift this mop up a bit I can see the steam, but if the mop is on the floor, there is no visible steam. In my world, grout is the enemy...I want to know it’s getting clean. The pad doesn’t look as dirty as the pad from my previous steam mop, which leads me to believe the surface is getting clean, but there’s not enough steam to get to the grout. And that is why I hate this machine after just one use. Do yourself a favor and order a different steam mop.

Love this unit for the price. Very easy to use.

Bought this to do cleaning but my wife stole it. Shes using it to take wrinkles out of our curtains after she washes them. This saves literally hours of ironing the curtains before putting them up. I now have to borrow it from her to use for my stuff. May be Ill buy a second one. Its very important to use distilled water to keep the steamer clean and without scale build up. Its still a bit heavy when filled, but doesnt really do much without being filled with water.

I like that it was EASY to put together, and EASY to use. The weight is in the handle, since that is where the water is and all the mechanics...the problem is that you cannot put pressure in the long metal hose. That being said, you are lightly cleaning or moping up on the floor. If you want to put pressure in scrubbing the, you may still need to mop. I gave it four stars for weight. It may be too heavy for the old. and long periods of cleaning. It is great for sanitizing, but I would say it is not better than pressure cleaning from the good old hands and arms if you still have it in you to give a good scrub.
