- Sealed hard floors
- Sanitizing
- Quick clean
A light, quick-heating corded steam pocket mop ready in about 19 seconds, with easy swivel steering and double-sided washable pads you flip mid-clean, sanitizing sealed tile, stone and sealed hardwood with tap water only. It is not safe for unsealed hardwood, waxed or laminate floors, where steam warps them, and its small tank refills often.
Pros
- Very fast ~19-second heat-up, and the light swivel-steering pocket mop is easy to handle
- Double-sided washable pads let you flip to a fresh side mid-clean
- Chemical-free steam sanitizes sealed hard floors using only tap water
Cons
- Smaller ~12.6 oz tank means more frequent refills on large jobs
- Not for unsealed hardwood, waxed, or laminate floors
- No dedicated scrubbing-pad mode for heavy baked-on messes like higher-end mops
