| I like to use natural ones that say they are made from plants. but now that I think about it, how do we know they are safe if some plants are harmful to dogs? hmm. maybe someone can answer that for you. I know lots of people use steam mops! I either do the natural products or just plain bleach and water, or white vinager and water. Sometimes if I don't have these things or I just got some Mr. Clean on sale, I wash it with that mixed with water. Then after I wash it again with just plain water so it's not harmful, I don't know if it's a good idea but it makes me feel better and I haven't had any issues since doing it this way!

| Me too -- sometimes I am sorry for buying in to the infomercials -- but not this time. I love the steam mop. Everything gets clean, sanitized, no rinsing and the drying time is almost nil! I bought extra mop pads so, I always have a clean pad on it.

I have been thinking about one but my floors are tile, but the sticky kind you put down and ceramic in my bathroom ( MY LANDLORDS VERY CHEAP CAN YOU TELL!) would I be able to use a steam mop on these kinds of floors? and secondly, my mom is a VERY VERY clean woman, she cleans all the time and her house is never a mess, she bought a steam mop and her house is kinda large, well she said the one pad only lasted for one room and that it was just impossible for her to clean her whole house with the mop so she returned it. I am worried about that, Im just in an apartment but I don't have a washer and dyer in my apartment I have to go downstairs to use it. | |
