Life Changing
My house has ALL wood, bamboo and tile floors. I’ve said over the years that I wanted a maid to come in and just do the floors. A pregnancy injury left me in pain most of the time and floors are really hard for me. I started with a robot vacuume that I love love love. Next I wanted an electric mop. After reading all the reviews, the corded plug in Shark Hydrovac is what I bought. I am reading poor reviews here under this product, but they continually mention the weak battery. My review is for the corded plug in vacuume not a cordless model. My floors have never been cleaner. I used the vacuume over the course of two days and about 10 hours for an initial clean. The bamboo floor is only six years old and sealed. That floor was so easy to clean, although I still cleaned it three times over since it hasn’t been cleaned in over six months. The kitchen tile was super easy too, although it doesn’t reach the grout, my daughter is young and took on the challenge to clean the grout with a nifty grout brush I found. The hard part to clean is the 30 year old wood floors with areas where the seal is worn off. We bought the house from someone who’s dogs had scratched the floors and wore off the finish in high traffic areas. This was the hard part to clean the first time. I did the same as with the bamboo and cleaned it the times over. After it was done, I realized there were areas of built up dirt on the unsealed areas I had not been getting clean. I decided to go back and clean this area by hand with a scrub brush to get it where I wanted. After that the floors have been a snap to keep clean. I’ve put in about 20 hours with the vacuume so far and have had zero problems. Some reviews say you can’t vacuume and mop together. I didn’t even try that. I vacuume with the robot first, then mop. I don’t want to risk scratching the floor with a gritty mop. It is super easy to clean. The clean tank chines right out with the push of a button. The dirty tank is the same way. I dump it in the sink, rinse it and either use it again or put it on a towel to drain and dry. There is a sponge on the filter that I rinse and squeeze and put on the towel to dry. The beater bar comes out easily. I rinse under the faucet in the kitchen sink and squeeze by grabbing the bar and turning it around with the other hand. Again, I either put it back on the mop to keep cleaning or leave it on its end to dry on the towel. The vacuume without the beater bar and without the dirty tank, has a very short tube between the two that cleans easily with a bottle brush that is not included, but I already own it. All these parts are removable and replaceable with one hand. I find it easy to use, easy to empty the dirty tank and easy to refill the clean tank. The mop has a self clean feature that works pretty well, but I found that it is easy enough to clean it the way I described above and decided that is rather care for it myself and allow the parts to all dry completely. I’ve had zero issues with mold or a moldy smell. My floors are cleaner than they have been in years and are easy to maintain after the initial clean I have them. Note, I have a corgi dog that sheds all year. The robot vacuume and the Shark mop have changed my life. I don’t leave the house covered in fur anymore. Once a week I vacuume and mop, or one other day in between if we are all off work for holidays and tracking more dust and dirt. Everyone in the house is impressed with his easily the floor is kept in a very clean and neat state. Along with the robot vacuume, this mop is the best investment I’ve made in householt cleaning tools,ever.

Good tool for the price
I’ve used it twice since it arrived and it works as advertised. Easy to assemble and use, gets the floor cleaner than manual mopping and the floor dries faster. My only complaint is that if you turn it off it drips dirty water as you carry it to the base tray, or leaves a dirty wet line if left standing while off. I solved that by strategically ending my mopping at the base tray. I wish it had a “spin and vacuum only” mode to dry off the roller.It also doesn’t clean a small strip at the edge of the floor. I wasn’t expecting it to as that seems to be a feature that requires a more expensive model. I’m ok getting that with a cloth but could be a deal breaker for some buyers.

Loving it
I have 3 young kiddos and a dog who sheds like crazy. We live in a 1700 square foot 2 story home so I love the fact that it’s cordless and lightweight so it’s very easy for me to carry up the stairs. I’ve had it for a couple of weeks now and I use it about once a day downstairs and 1 time a week upstairs. It’s super easy to clean out as well. You can see in my last picture I took all the parts out to clean them. You don’t have to take the roller out because it has a self clean option, but I had some hair tangled in there so I wanted to take it out to clean it and it was super easy to do. The battery life seems as though it runs out pretty quick because it starts flashing at one bar, but I’m still able to finish my entire house so the battery life lasts as long as I need it to!

Great product easy to use 👍😉
