Ironing machine.

I bought the Shark steamer because we just moved into a new house, and the floors looked like the previous owners had been hosting indoor tractor pulls. One pass with this thing and suddenly my hardwoods were shining like they were auditioning for a cleaning commercial. I’m talking reflection so sharp I caught a glimpse of my soul level shine.

As a nurse who values my time when cleaning the house, the steam vacuum mop is amazing. Not only do I know that it’s sanitize my floors, but it also picks up what I missed from vacuuming. Because I have dogs I always sweep or vacuum before I mop, but it even picks up what I miss. You do have to fill it a couple times and empty the dirty water while doing a room but it’s so nice to see just how dirty your floors really were. It’s so easy to use as you just start mopping when you see the steam rolling out. And the cord is super long like a regular vacuum so it allows you to get everywhere in the room.

To preface this; I have 5 cats, 1 small dog, 1 child and 3 other adults in my house. Laminate flooring throughout downstairs, except the ugly tile in the kitchen. I just used this in every room downstairs, without vacuuming first, and it works GREAT! Picked up crumbs, cat food, strings, carpet fibers, SO much cat hair, and a ton of other unidentified small debris. Luckily, I actually read the instructions and saw that sometimes you have to go back over hair/debris slowly to get it to pick up, but it always did. Incredibly easy to take apart and clean. The tool that comes with it to help clean the brush roll is an awesome added bonus, works really well. I also have a Bissell Symphony but this thing blows that out of the water. So easy to use, I plan to show my son how to work it (he's 9)!
