Eco friendly & Effective Way to Clean Floors: Shark Steam Mop Review
I've been searching for an easy AND effective way to clean my floors for a very long time now. The truth is that with a dog and a toddler, my floors usually require a lot of elbow grease to truly get clean. Not to mention that I have hardwood floors throughout most of my home so I also have to worry about them not getting really wet so they don't warp or get messed up! It's not as easy as just mopping them, really. And, even if it was, the idea of mopping my floors with dirty water is not exactly appealing! I am happy to say that I have found an awesome option with the Shark Steam Mop by Euro-Pro!
Shark sent me a Steam Mop for me to review and I am seriously impressed with how clean it gets my floors and how easy it is to use! First of all, the Shark Steam Mop takes literally a few minutes to put together when you take it out of the box. Just snap a few of the pieces together and you are done. When you're ready to clean, you fill the reservoir with water (they recommend distilled water, but I just used regular water) and 30 SECONDS later the Steam Mop is ready! The steam that comes out of this mop is awesome! What's really cool is if you have to REFILL the reservoir in the middle of cleaning, you DO NOT have to wait for the mop to cool down at all!
Also, the cord is 20 feet long, which is a great size for most households. However, since we have hardwood floors throughout our entire 2 story house, we obviously have to use an extension cord or just switch outlets. The Shark Steam Mop is also very lightweight and the shape actually makes it easy to clean hard-to-reach places like under furniture or tight spaces. What I love about it the most is that it eliminates the need for a mop and bucket and the inevitable cleaning with dirty water. Best of all, it also eliminates the need to use harsh chemical cleaners, which makes the Shark Steam Mop a GREEN way to clean your floors! We've already used the Shark Steam Mop more than a handful of times and both my husband and I have fallen in love with it! It really gets the job done-our floors are literally squeaky clean after we use it!
The Shark Steam Mop that I received came with two microfiber cleaning cloths and a carpet glider. The carpet glider is also pretty cool. It can be attached to the Steam Mop and used to freshen carpets and rugs!
Want It: The Shark Steam Mop can be purchased directly from the Shark website for four payments of $24.95. If you buy through them, you will get SIX steam pads and a carpet glider. You can also find the Shark Steam Mop at Amazon or Walmart for under $80.

I thought that I would never buy an as seen on tv product. I was totally sucked in by the commercial though. I really love it! Could this mean more as seen on tv purchases in the future? :)

The TV info-mercial & these comments make me want one of these mops. However, on the "Jolly Mom" mop review page, there is a link to the Haan Steam Mop page. I read all about that mop as I read all about the Shark mop. The Haan is $89.99 & FREE shipping. QUESTION: Does anyone know the similarities &/or the differences between these two mops? Does anyone know which is the better buy for the money?
