This steam mop makes keeping the floors clean incredibly simple. One of the best features is how quickly it heats up; you can go from plugging it in to steaming in less than a minute, which is perfect for quick touch-ups. It does a great job of lifting grime without needing harsh chemicals, leaving the floors looking refreshed.

The design of the pads is also a major plus. They are very easy to remove when you are finished, and being able to toss them right into the wash makes the whole process much more convenient. If you want an effective tool that is easy to handle and maintain, this mop is a solid choice.

So a real review and I’m not a robot. This is one of the greatest cleaning tools I’ve ever used. I had the original shark steam mop and had it for my mom had it first and I have had it for probably 15 years. Product is fantastic. I love the steam up. It’s awesome to see or I wish I had videos to show you before and after, but this is High-quality item. Great price. I love it. Highly recommend this product. I love shark I was struck vacuum a shark steam off a shark steam cleaner, vacuum cleaner I love shark

The mop itself it very easy to use and straight-forward. It comes with two double sided pads which is nice and its easy to refill the water tank. The issue I have and reason why I didnt put 5 stars is because it takes a while to get the steam out and I'm not sure the floor is clean.

I've had my Shark now for over two years and it's still going strong! I was honestly nervous after receiving my steam mop because it did feel a little flimsy. However, that being said...it would be tiring to use a heavy solid mop that holds added weight in water! We decided to go with the steam for several reasons but first, because my daughter suffers from severe allergies! This mop uses no cleaners and does a much better job than a traditional mop and bucket. I also liked the "green" factor of no cleaner and washable pads. I have washed and reused the cleaning pads too many times to count and not a single one of them is showing any signs of wear!! (not counting some staining of course) Also, one of my daughters accidentally dropped my Shark down the basement stairs and cracked the plastic housing...didn't effect the mop in the least. It feels no flimsier and hasn't worsened as I've continued using it...and it doesn't leak. It's plastic...I don't blame the mop for breaking when the same daughter dropped my cast iron pan down the same stairs and that also broke ;) We have finished hardwood floors, laminate floors, tiled floors, Allure floors and oiled pine floors...this mop works wonderfully on every one of them! I've used it to remove general dirt and grime, sticky nasties, wax, crayon, marker, paint, wood stove ash residue, unidentifiable kid & pet surprises and numerous food spills all with great success! I have recommended this mop several times and will do so several more times I'm sure! The only drawback, by the way, to steam mopping is during peak humid summer weather, although the added humidity during the dry winter months is great! ;)

***UPDATE***

Sadly my Shark pocket mop finally died :( It stopped making steam after 4 years! My super handy husband popped it open and removed one tiny little part and it worked again...but only for a couple more moppings. So...after four years of using the daylights out of it I am back to buy a new mop...just an FYI in those four years we have had 8 children, 2 adults, several animals and countless house guests traipsing in and out! I did the research...I read the reviews...I compared prices. For the money...I am buying another Shark Pocket Mop!

Things I've learned...

I originally bought the mop with several heads. I only used the rectangular one. I have an open floor plan so if you have tight spaces the triangular head may work better for you. I didn't use the carpet attachment either...with my daughter's allergies we got rid of all our carpeting...which means our entire house is bare, steam-moppable floors...this mop gets USED! Our house is not large...28x26, two and a half levels with moppable floors with a mostly open floor plan. The cord reached every area from one central outlet.**UPDATE** The cord on the new mop is shorter than the old one. I was disappointed, but it still mops the same...only now I have to move the plug to more than one outlet...not a deal-breaker for me** I also never had to buy replacement pads in the four years I've owned them! They are no longer white...but they still work beautifully! I occasionally tried the big purple fluffy pad that came with mine but I wasn't totally thrilled with it...maybe because it took longer to wet enough to clean with...admittedly I just want to get mopped and be done ASAP. If I came across an especially hard spot to get clean I simply (with shoes on!) stepped on the head and applied pressure and steam for several seconds and rarely had anything not come up...even cooled candle wax :) Most other mops don't look like you could step on the head without damaging it.

By far my favorite feature is the reversible mopping surface! I mop half of one level (it actually could do more) then simply flip the mop over to mop the rest with the clean side! LOVE that! No changing scalding hot pads part way through a mop job or waiting for it to cool down enough to change it! I also got one level done on one tank of water with some left over :) AND...even though it said to use distilled water I never did....I used straight well water from the tap...and we have high iron in our water. I am most definitely a fan...especially for a price that's nearly half of many of the other steam mops out there!

I am sorry that some other reviewers did not have the same experience I have had. I understand that this is an electronic appliance. My new one may have a manufacturing flaw that my old one didn't. You will get that with ANY electronic device...some will be flawless...others DOA. A definite pain, but for this mop, in my opinion...well worth the risk :) FOUR years...and 3 months to be exact! I totally got my money's worth!

My first steam mop and I will absolutely never go back to an old one again! My floors are the cleanest! Its so easy to use, and because its a pump mechanism I don't have to think about too much to operate.

where do I begin?? This thing is absolutely amazing. I’ve had it for about almost a month now. It cleans extremely well and you can even feel how clean the floor is after it’s done. It is very important that you follow the instructions and put distilled water just so you don’t clog it. If i’m being honest that takes about 10 minutes right before you’re ready to clean. The pad is reversible and after you’re done cleaning, you just toss it in the washing machine. I don’t have to purchase any separate attachments and you’re able to use it again after a wash. I used to break my back cleaning the house with the swiffer and even with that it didn’t fully clean it. Not to mention how annoying it is to constantly buy the swiffer pads. With every time I use this, it gets less dirty, but I genuinely cannot believe how dirty it gets considering I clean my place every single week. It shows you how big of a difference is when you use steam rather than just a mop around the house. Super worth it, Worth the price and very convenient. I also love that it’s not that big. I’m able to store it in my closet. If you’re second guessing… just do it. it’s extremely important not to put anything in the water. Just keep it as distilled water but what I tend to do is I throw Fabuloso on the floor and very very small amount with water mixed into it and just go throughout the house with that makes it smell, so clean and thoroughly cleans the floor, that’s one way of doing it if you don’t want to just steam it with water, but as I mentioned, I cannot emphasize the importance of using distilled water and not putting any chemicals in the actual water of the steamer. The only downside I have to this is I believe the cable is just a little bit shorter than I expected. I would’ve personally liked it a little bit longer so I’m having to unplug it every time I switch like 2-3 rooms but other than that no complaints whatsoever.

I have used this 3 or 4 times now. Im still trying to figure out if I like it or not. I appreciate true honest reviews when I am looking to purchase something so I feel like my experience my be helpful.

First of all I noticed while reading these reviews that many of them are for the different styles of shark steam mops. Thats was quite confusing while I was shopping for my mop. I was looking for the entry level model and noticed I was reading reviews for the higher end models. My review is based on the shark steam pocket mop. It does not have a carpet attachment or the triangle one or the handheld version. It is the simple base version. I bought it as an open box item from an amazon seller so some of the things I find as flaws may be due to this particular unit not being "brand new"

First of all it was bigger than I expected but in a good way. It feels pretty sturdy and the telescoping handle was a very nice surprise feature. The pads that come with it are very nice and feel very sturdy like they will last along time. It is easy and quick to get started and heats up quickly. It starts out a bit like dry mopping and I have to stay in the spot I start in for a bit until the steam gets the mop head damp enough to work. I am a bit disappointed with the steam out put. I expected a bit more based on reviews I had read. At times the steam comes out good and strong but then it just sort of fizzles out for a while and when I hit a dirty spot and want a bit more power steam there is no way to do that. I have a parrot a dog and three kids. I have many dirty spots and need a bit more steam than this puts out. On the flip side of this issue, I have decided this may in fact be a good thing due to the fact that I have what appears to be some kind of synthetic or real wood floors throughout my rental apt and I have no idea if they are sealed or not so probably best to have less steam so as not to damage anything. I have also found that it does get the floors clean enough if I go over the heavier traffic areas several times. Its not hard to do and it does get the sticky dirty ground in stuff off the floors. It doesn't get the floors to wet and dries very quickly. I do enjoy using this mop over all just a bit frustrated with the steam output.

One other flaw I have noticed, I was motivated to buy this particular steam mop due to the feature that allows you to simply flip the mop head over and use the clean side without changing the pad. However, I noticed that in doing this you also flip the water tank upside down which then stops the steam. So this feature is pointless.

Over all this mop is ok for someone who wants a simple steam mop to replace the old dirty water bucket. For the price I paid (43.00) I cant complain because it gets the job done. Also this will work for someone who isn't sure steam will be damaging to their floors. This puts out such a small amount of steam I don't think its even an issue. My floors are cleaner than they were when I used the wet swiffer mop. I can over look the flaws since it does a decent job and its easy to use and store.

Great, easy to use steamer. Cleans floors without leaving residue or streaks. I use this in my wood floors and tile! I wish the cord was longer but that is my only complaint! Great way to sterilize and sanitize in a nontoxic way!

con el Shark la boquilla esta mucho mas limpio. Tengo un perro y cuando ella toma agua la mitad sale la boca y deja manchas en la boquilla. El Shark limpia la boquilla y todo el piso es mejor.

Cleans the house effortlessly

This is a great floor steamer. It performs well and I’m very pleased that I can clean all my hard surfaced floors without worrying that the water will damage the hardwood. The water dries very quickly so that it should not cause any problems.

I also have the Bona hardwood floor cleaner which I will use occasionally on the hardwood.

Looks good

Muy recomendable para limpiar la casa sin tanto esfuerzo, solo lo llenas de agua, conectas y listo.

Recomiendo haber aspirado o barrido muy bien antes ya que las partículas se van quedando adheridas a la micro fibra o se humedecen y arrastran en el piso.
