Our Top Three Steam Mop Picks

Bissell 1867 Steam Mop

1. Bissell Steam Mop - Our Number #1 pick is the Bissell Steam Mop.  This one has tons of positive reviews including several from customers who also owned the Shark and found the Bissell to work much better.  The main complaints I saw for this mop was just trivial things such as the cord not being long enough.

Why are Steam Mops so Popular?

A steam mop can be used to clean vinyl, ceramic, laminate, marble, stone, linoleum and hardwood floors that are sealed.  Not for use on ceramic that is unglazed or wood floors that aren't sealed.

People love that they can clean their floors without the use of harsh chemicals.  This also means the air in your house should stay cleanier too.  Studies show the air inside homes is usually more polluted than outside air, partly because of the use of cleaning chemicals.  The chemical free aspect is also a strong selling point to parents with small children and to pet owners.

Since steam mops heat water to 212 degrees farenheit, they not only clean your floors but also sanitize and kill almost all germs and bacteria (99% according to most claims I have seen).

Ease of use is another reason to own a steam mop.  All you have to do is fill it with water, plug it in, and in less than a minute you are ready to mop.  When you are done, just remove the mop pad and wash it in your washing machine so it's clean and ready for next time!
