I'm hoping to save others some money by sharing my experiences of new products. I love gadgets, cleaning stuff and anything for the hair or face. Mum of 3 - Boys 13 and 11, girl aged 4 with two part-time jobs so anything timesaving will be tested.

I have Solid wooden floors in two downstairs rooms and laminate flooring in another two. With three kids (12, 10, 3) and me being a little clumsy I seemed to be constantly mopping up crayon, sauce, tea stains etc. I have neck and shoulder problems and find using a mop which requires wringing and elbowgrease very difficult. I'm a bit of a gadgetaholic and after seeing this demonstrated on a TV shopping channel I was convinced it would be perfect for me,
I thought it was a little expensive once P & P was added so price compared on line and got it from duck.co.uk with free delivery for £39.99 (bargain).
As soon as it arrived, I had it straight out of the box, very easy to put together and all I had to do was put the microfibre cloth on and fill the water tank.
The steam began to generate almost immediately and I was able to start cleaning after about 30 secs, this is great as my steam cleaner takes several minutes to get up to temperature.
The mop glides easily along the floor, manouverability is impressive, with the large cleaning surface you can get right to the edge of cupboards and the microfibre cloth picks up small crumbs\debris as well. The heat, steam and microfibre cloth combine to clean such things as crayon, pencil, dried in pepper sauce (maybe thats just my house) easily, at most you might need to go over a really bad spot with two or three swipes.
Less elbow grease is required than for a normal mop as the steam and cloth appear to do all the work for you. My floors are left gleaming and practically dry. Much better finish than a normal mop. I can finish all four rooms without having to refill the water tank so guess one fill would allow about 20 minutes of mopping,
You simply pull the cloth off at the end (velcro dead easy) and throw it into the washing machine although you must put it in a wash without fabric conditioner.
It comes with a glider plate so it can also be used on carpets, I haven't needed to use this yet but wish I'd had the system when potty training was in full swing.
I have had this mop almost a year now and have had no problems with it. If anything did happen to it I would have to buy another one as it takes the hard manual work out of mopping.
Definitely recommended - well worth the money as you save on time and energy and get a better result. Get the extra pack of pads though a bit dear at £12.99 but you need spares while the one supplied is waiting to be washed.

Great review and I echo everything you've said. It's a real time saver. Fingers crossed they don't break down in a few months as other reviewers have said! Regards, Gary.
