Description of Bissell Steam Mop Hard-Floor Cleaner, Green Tea, 1867-7BISSELL 1867A Steam Mop¿ Hard Floor Cleaner for an all natural chemical-free clean. Steam Mop has quick release cord wrap with slim, lightweight design. 100% Chemical-free product with steam on demand. Ideal for the chemically sensitive or those with small children, the Bissell Steam Mop deep-cleans hard-surface floors using the power of pure water alone. No harsh (or expensive) cleaners means no fumes or residues to irritate lungs or muddy delicate finishes, while the use of hot steam rather than buckets of water leaves floors dry in just seconds. Heated and ready to use in 30 seconds, the remarkably quiet mechanism works something like an iron: steam is dispensed on demand, rather than continuously, by pressing the trigger while passing the mop over the floor. Hot steam easily removes hardened and sticky gunk, especially if the mop sits over the mess for a few seconds. (Leave it in place 15 seconds to actually sanitize the cleaning surface.) The machine steams for approximately 15 minutes before the tank needs to be refilled, but there's no lag once you refill it. The Steam Mop's low-profile 360-degree swiveling head accesses hard-to-reach nooks and crannies, like under kitchen cabinets, while its compact profile stores easily in small spaces. Other thoughtful design touches include a quick-release cord wrap and easy-carry handle, as well as a built-in water filter to protect from the minerals and impurities in hard water. (An indicator lets users know when the filter need to be replaced.) Durable, reusable microfiber pads are safe on all sealed hard surfaces and clean up nicely in the washing machine. Measuring 6 by 11 by 45-1/2 inches, the Bissell Steam Mop weighs less than 7 pounds and is covered by a one-year limited warranty.--Mary Park
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bissell Steam Mop Hard-Floor Cleaner, Green Tea, 1867-7Customer Review: Happy I finally did it... Summary: 5 Stars
I'd wanted a steam mop for some time, but I was paranoid reading reviews for them & didn't know which I should choose. It seemed as though either you loved them or hated them, & I was paranoid I'd be one of those who hated it. After getting this Bissell in, the only thing I hate is that I waited so long before trying it.
I have several pets & a toddler (plus I'm pregnant) so I'm always cleaning something. I've never been able to get the hard floors in my house really clean. A regular mop didn't do it, the wet jet products were OK but never left me feeling as though I'd actually cleaned. I have hardwood, tile, & vinyl. I got this in & kept the package, just in case I hated it & wanted to send it back. It is easy to put together, took less than 5 minutes. It does seem a bit heavy, but once you use it you realize it actually helps gets things up without you needing to put much physical effort into, unlike mops & other systems. When the unit is plugged in, it was less than 30 seconds before I was ready to go. Very simple to use, cleans very well, & extra steam & a little waiting gets up basically anything my floors have, from scuffs in the entry way to food my toddler leaves in the dining room floor after meals. I've had no problems with streaks & I don't find that it leaves the floor too wet. Depending on how much steam you use, which you control yourself, it could be dry or slightly damp. I find that when I steam more dirty spots I of course end up with a bit more damper results, but no more damp than a mop & bucket leaves your floor. It puts out great steam & I was really impressed that it actually did steam & got as hot as it does. Like I said, the extra weight helped remove scuffs with very little effort on my part. Normally, even after mopping, I end up on the floor with cleaner & a rag, which isn't very practical right now since I'm currently pregnant. I found the cord was long enough, but I could see how it could be short if you have very large rooms. But even then, plugging this in & out is very simple & requires no wait time to start cleaning again. The pads go on & off easily, I throw them in the washer & allow them to air dry. About the only real complaint I had after using it was that I wish it had some sort of locking feature on it to keep it standing up. I have no where to hang it, so I have to leave it leaning in a corner & hope nothing knocks it over. But, again, that's with any mop. As it's been said, not amazing on grout but I don't think really anything is. This cleans just as well as anything else when it comes to the grout. But everything else? It really does feel cleaner that anything else I've used. And I love that I don't have to fool with carrying around water to different rooms or using chemicals. Because of the toddler & animals, I always tried to mop at night because I didn't want to expose them to the chemicals on the floors, where they obviously run around all the time. Now, it's not a concern as this is just water. I was also amazed by how well it cleaned my bathroom which has vinyl flooring. Since we've lived here we've been unhappy with it & no matter what we used to clean it, it never looked or felt clean. This actually left the floor looking cleaner than it's looked since we bought the house last year. That alone makes it worth the price since nothing else has worked for that bathroom.
So overall, I'm very pleased with this item. It's not totally effortless, cleaning never is, but with as much work as you'd have to put into the wet jet type of items you get a very clean looking & feeling floor. Again, this is something I wish I hadn't waited so long to buy, worrying about if it was worth the price. I've found that it is & after just having this a few weeks, I can't imagine going back to anything else to clean my hard floors.
