H2O Steam Mop - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Connie · 11-29-2007, 03:13 PM

I had never even heard of the h2omop until seeing this thead, and have been googling that one and the shark steam cleaner. I was thinking I could get one for my daughter for Christmas since she just got hardwood floors, and after all the reading, I think I want one too...but I've heard better about the shark than the h2o one. One thing I read on pro's and con's was that some say it streaks their floor or makes a floor look dull after using it. I guess that with repeated use the floor looks better as it is taking up the built up cleaning solution that is on the floor.

I went to amazon to where they are selling the shard for $79.99 and they are out of stock. Ugh.

If there has been an accident, I still clean it the usual way (spraying it with Simple Solution and wiping up with paper towel), but then I steam mop the entire room (after vacuuming or swiffering) and it gets rid of the streaks left by wiping with paper towel.

The first time I used the steam mop, the only room that the hardwood seemed "dull" was Tia's room where her pee pads were. That was the only room where I was using a cleaner on the floor (everywhere else I was using a rag wrung with very hot water, so no residue was left behind). After a couple of routine cleanings the hardwood in that room now hsines like the rest of the house.

I know I sound like an ad for this thing, but I love it! I have dark maple floors with satin finish and it's been a pain in the butt trying to find something that cleans thoroughly and relatively easily. I've spent money on swiffer wet jet, micro fiber clothes (which do work really well actually but seems to require more effort than the mop), fancy hardwood cleaning solutions. By far, the Shark steam mop is the easiest way and I love that I'm not using any harmful chemicals taht could hurt Tia or my baby cousins when they come to visit.

Tia is actually afraid of my steam mop

I accidentally dropped it twice (my fault for not leaning it on the wall properly) so now she runs whenever I pull it out. At least she doesn't get aggressive about it! Ahe even leaves me alone when I'm doing my regular swiffering! What a relief!

Wow! They must be really popular! I hope you find one!! I won't be buying one for at least a month or so

Connie · 11-30-2007, 10:03 AM

I bought one last night on ebay...the shark steam mop. Had to pay a little more than Target price, but Target couldn't guarantee them being here by Christmas. I got this one for my daughter. I'll wait till after Christmas to look for one for myself! If I'd never seen this thread, I'd not even know about them, so thanks for starting the thread!

The infomercial makes it look like it works really well.

Santa came through for me and I got the Shark Steam Mop!

It's amazing. No more on my knees scruping tile. I would highly suggest it
to anyone who has tile or laminated floors.
My two bathrooms, kitchen and dinning room and hall is done in 15mins!

Now that's time saving to me.

Connie · 01-31-2008, 08:11 AM

I got one too and I absolutely love it! It's so fast and so easy and quiet. I got the Shark. I wish they'd had these when my Mom was alive. It would have been so perfect for her.

Izzy Princess · 01-31-2008, 08:31 AM

OK - I can't believe I found this thread..hehehe...I just happened to have just purchased the H20 steam mop through the website this morning. Once I get it and try it I'll post in here to let you all know how it works. I really wanted it for my laminate floors and my ceramic tile in the bathroom but what really sold me was that little attachment where you can steam your carpets.

celstu1 · 01-31-2008, 01:27 PM

My mom ordered it, I'll have to call and ask her if she likes it!

Jenn218 · 01-31-2008, 01:47 PM

I think I want/need one!! I would probable go with the Shark...and I am glad to see that it works on wood floors (since that is all we have). I wish I had seen this thread back in December...I would have put that on my Christmas or birthday list!!!
