I am looking for recommendations on an easy way to clean my tile floors like a Floormate (wet/dry) vac. I currently have a Bissel steam mop, but I want something bigger that doesn't have pads to wash afterwards. Most of my downstairs is tile so I am wanting to make my life a little easier. Please let me know what you like and don't like about the Floormate or a similar product you have used. Thank you for your help.
I had a Floormate and I found that using it as a vacuum was more hassle than it was worth. I would vacuum with my regular vacuum and then wash the floor with the Floormate. It did a good job washing the floor, although sometimes it left too much water. It broke awhile back and I got the Eureka steam mop and I must say, I like it much better.
I did a lot of research several months ago when my shark steam mop finally bit the dust. I really wanted a wet/dry vac but they didn't get very good reviews, not very strong suction (although I have no personal experience with this). I use a swiffer vac and then a Eureka steam mop (by far the best reviews, and as much as I liked my shark, I like this one better). It's about as easy as it gets. . . . I throw away the pad on the swiffer but I do have to wash the steamer pad, not a big deal. . . .
I just sweep, spray the floor with vinegar, and mop with a string mop. I do take the head off my mop and throw it in the washing machine when it needs it.
A friend of mine has a Shark steam mop and she loves it, but I don't know anything about it.
i don't know how it'd get any easier than what you have. honestly, there's nothing that easy about cleaning floors.
i have a swiffer vac that picks up all the dirt/crumbs and then I go over it with Bona. man that stuff makes your wood and tile SHINE so good!!! seriously its amazing.
