A powerful, chemical-free deep-clean for sealed tile and stone, with a scrubby pad for baked-on messes - not for laminate or unsealed wood.

Pros

  • Heats in about 30 seconds and sanitizes sealed floors with water only - no chemicals
  • SmartSet digital steam control plus a scrubby pad handle stuck-on messes
  • Large-capacity tank and 23-ft cord cover big rooms without constant refilling

Cons

  • Corded and fairly heavy/bulky to maneuver and to store
  • Not safe for unsealed wood, waxed floors, or most laminate - steam moisture warps them
  • Pads need frequent washing, and fragrance discs and replacement pads are ongoing costs
