Hey Gayle!!! seems like just about everyone to talk to that has yorkies doesn't have carpets!! lol...

this is actually a steam cleaner that cleans the floor. I usually use a mop with mr. clean...it's just a pain to keep putting the mop in the bucket...wringing it out...mopping the floor...again...and again...and again! This just looks so much easier and it's supposed to get deep down, ground in dirt! I kinda sound like a commercial don't I? LOL

I was going to post on YT but the posts get pushed out so fast ....that's why I post here...

I have the H20 steam cleaner - same thing, different name. It is good, but I can't use it on my laminate floors. They show streaks (they are going to be replaced asap!!!) Anyway, I can't really say how the steam cleaners work in the long run.
It gives out a nice amount of steam, and doesn't drip water. I guess if steam cleans like they say, it is good. It's lightweight, and easy to go around the floor with. The fact that it needs to be plugged in is annoying. It also doesn't get the dust, etc. up, so it would be a two step process.

I would think you would have to vacuum first. How does it do cleaning the floors? I don't want to buy one if it doesn't work well. Although if I keep my receipt I'm sure I can return it.

I have a confession to make - I rarely mop any of my floors - I have a housekeeper who does it. I sometimes have to in between her visits though. I just HATE housework and because I work and am very busy with many other things outside of work, looong ago, I hired a housekeeper and it makes my life soooo much easier!

DianaB · 08-22-2009, 04:46 PM

I don't blame you, Gayle. If I worked I'd have someone clean my house too. To be completely honest, I'd love to have a housekeeper too!!! It would be so nice to have a nice clean home and not have to do the work to get it that way!!!!

blowry · 08-22-2009, 05:03 PM

I agree with both of you!! Would be soooo nice to come home and do what I WANT to do..not what I HAVE to do! Unfortunately I have to do it myself!! UGH!

Shada · 08-22-2009, 06:21 PM

I have it!!

And... I love it!!! I got mine at QVC. It was $62.00, I think $67.00 with shipping. It also came with I think, 6 pads. The ones in the stores come with 2 pads. The pads alone are $20.00 for two. So QVC is a great deal.
It doesn't hold a lot of water, but I have never had a problem. It works well for me. Even if you do need to add more water, no biggie.
It really does clean well. I think you will like it.

Are the pads washable? I am going to buy it. I don't mind having to fill it with water. I think it will be so much better and easier than a mop and bucket

Thanks everyone for the input!

Marilyn · 08-23-2009, 04:42 AM

Brenda, please come back and let us know what you think about the Shark. I've really considered getting one. I have a steam cleaner I bought on Ebay and really like the cleaning performance, but it's a boiler that rolls around with a long hose and attachments. It needs a new cap for the boiler, but I haven't ordered it because it's $25. That money could go toward the purchase of a Shark it they work well.

I wish I had a housekeeper. I did when the girls were small, but when they got bigger, hubby said we didn't need a housekeeper with three women in the house. The girls are gone now, but now he doesn't want us to spend the money on a housekeeper. (He hasn't mowed a lawn in 10 or 15 years. We have a guy who does it for us every week.) Hubby does help with the housework though, but would so like to be free on the weekends and not have to scrub floors and bathrooms!!

Yes the pads are washable.
Let me know how you like it!!

DianaB · 08-23-2009, 04:06 PM

Here's the one on QVC. It does have more pads. There are quite a few reviews from people who have bought it so you might want to read them.

I have one and love it yes you need to hoover well before but ideal for all floor types. You do need to use distilled water in mine and would like a longer lead, but does a good job.

Thanks, sometimes I feel a bit sheepish about having a housekeeper - but it helps soooo much!!!

Janet · 08-22-2009, 07:11 PM

Don't feel "sheepish" Gayle. I would love to have a housekeeper. That's right up there with having the money to pay her....LOLOL

I don't have hardwood floors, but I would love to. Maybe someday. You'd think with 5 Yorkies, I'd have them already huh?

I have had a housekeeper since Jessie was a little girl, whether I worked or not.
I am not the least bit ashamed, Gayle!~ I HATE housework!!! Let somebody else do it. There are so many better ways to spend your time

I hope Shark works out Brenda!
