Shark Floor Steam Mop

Why I love the shark floor steam mop. The Shark floor steam mop has made my life so much easier! For the last forty something years, I have been mopping floors the old fashioned way, on my hands and knees mostly. When I graduated to using disposable pads for mopping with a spray bottle, even though my vision is not as good as it once was, I could still see the bits and parts that needed to be "hand" cleaned. Uggh.

“This might make an awesome gift for your mom on Mother's Day!”

The Shark Floor Steam Mop

Wonderful sanitizer and time saver

shark floor steam mopShark floor steam mop. Okay, so I bought it and told them that it was from them as they tend not to remember to buy me stuff for Christmas. It is the best Christmas gift I have ever received. For years I would scrub floors by hand on my hands and knees. In fact for a time, while I was going to college, I cleaned houses to supplement the family income. I was the Cleaning Lady!

The things that I like about the Shark floor steam mop are:

  • It is lightweight
  • It heats up fast (like 30 seconds and you are mopping with steam)
  • It has held up well for the last year and a half of almost every day use
  • Photo Credit: Flicker Photo, WearingSkirts


  • The pads are washable
  • The cord is long
  • It gets the dirt up with minimal effort on my part
  • Mostly because it just flat out works well

    The official Shark Floor Steam Mop Commercial

    Not usually a big fan of commercials but I have to say this one makes me laugh. I love the music and I can so relate to the woman in the video. If only I could still move like that.

    How Do You Rave About Your Shark Steam Floor Mop?

      For sure MaartjeJepsen - mine has lasted me over a year and it is still working great!

      I should get one of these one day. Thanks!

      We have a Bissell which we love. So much better than scrubbing on your hands and knees or using a mop and bucket.

      i thought it was a shark, but instead it is a Shark Steam Floor Mop. Great info.

      Much better than chemicals, that's for sure. Does a great job.

      I have a shark floor steam mop and I love it. In fact my kitchen looks almost identical to the photo. I have the exact tile, I think. Anyway, it works great on this and my vinyl floors. The only drawback I have is that I have to vacuum the floors very, very well because I have lots of cats and the clumping litter (which are clay balls) stick to the steam mop and spread streaks on the floor. It's doable but I just have to take extra time to make sure to get those little clay balls up. Bear hugs, Frankster

      I appreciate the review. I'm hearing more about steam so this is timely. Thanks for answering some of my questions.

      I love my microfiber mop, but I'm hearing more and more about cleaning with steam. Very timely lens for me. Love the personal testimonial!

      Putting it on the list! Great article. :)

      I've thought about getting one of these and wondered how well it worked...thanks for the review! :)

      I never used one of these products but I think it could be very helpful
    • NeilTryAthlete Feb 20, 2012 @ 5:28 pm | delete
      I used to have a similar product, except it was battery operated and squirted detergent rather than steam out the front. It was good, but not thrilling enough for me to dance around the kitchen like that lady in the ad! :)

      I had one too Neil and it sucked big time, so I was leery to get the steam mop. My daughter told me about it almost a year before I decided to splurge. Man I am so glad I did. World of difference between the two.

      With a load of dogs running around my house, my steamer gets lots of use. I don't think I could live without it anymore!

      My husband does the floors, but if I were cleaning them, I would get this floor mop!
    • egosney78 Feb 20, 2012 @ 12:53 pm | delete
      Thanks for the review! I have wanted to one of these as my house is almost completely tile and laminate flooring, and I have a 1 and 3 year old. Needless to say, I have a mess to clean off the floor after every meal! I was wondering if it was as great as it seems on the commercial, and it sounds like it is!
    • davenjilli Feb 20, 2012 @ 1:02 pm | delete
      It totally is fun! Sometimes I even let my kids use it, if they are really good.
