What a timesaver!!!,
We have a great room (kitchen, dining, living area) that has slate flooring. After LOADS of research about floor cleaners, I decided to buy a shark steam mop from Costco. I chose this mainly for the cheaper price tag and the great return service at Costco. (I kept the box.) After using it twice I was happy enough but then I saw the 2 in 1 advertise. Reading the reviews online I was torn. I decided to take a chance and ordered the mop through KOHL’s using a 30% off coupon. I got the 2 in 1 for the same price as the regular steam mop and I am VERY happy! I have children, no pets and live in the country. We get a LOT of sand tracked in and the vac sucks it right up! My large area rug sheds a lot of wool fuzz and there again… the vac gets it right up. The “snack” crumbs left by the kiddies are also no match for the vac. I am not sure why the other reviewers say the vac suction doesn’t work??? If you know slate, then you know it is uneven and has a natural variation in height, other cleaners I have tried didn’t work (such as the Hoover Floor Mate). This Shark Vac then Steam mop worked!! It got every bit of debris off of the floor, even in the low spots and grout lines. Due to the uneven nature of slate at times I had to push it a little harder to get over the “bumps” but by no means was this “exhausting” as another person put it. I would even recommend it to my family members who have arthritis, it is easy to use. Switching to steam took the 30 seconds to heat up and then gave a solid steam for the endurance of the cleaning, I had about half of the water left in the container after cleaning. (It didn’t run out and I don’t feel it needs to be larger.) I like the clean feel it leaves on the floor and would not want to add anything to the water, I shy away from chemicals and extra smells due to allergies. Using the Shark is SO much better then hands and knees cleaning! I highly recommend!

|Not perfect, but best available,
I’ll give it to you straight: No hype, no hating.
This product is far from perfect. However, it works for me and is clearly the best option out there. This will not replace every other type of floor cleaning. It will not perfectly and completely deep clean your floor. It is great for quick, convenient everyday cleanup.
The dirtier your floor, the harder it is to push. It can also be harder to push on linoleum. It was by no means so difficult as to be a deal breaker. I’m not gifted in the upper body strength area, and though it didn’t glide effortlessly across the linoleum, I was not in any way winded, tired or sore from the job, even after cleaning the whole house.
The steam does come and go in spurts. From the various reviews it seems like this may depend on the unit you happen to get. Mine will provide impressively strong steam for awhile, then need a “break” to “recharge”. It happened enough to be annoying and affect how quickly I could clean the floor, but for me the overall convenience of the machine is worth this inconvenience. (It also helps if you make sure to keep the handle lowered as much as possible as opposed to upright, since this is what activates the steam). It is nice that you do not have to hold any type of trigger to activate the steam.
The vacuum nozzle is in fact just inches long and located near the back of the machine. Not ideal, but makes sense with the way it is designed. This does not affect the suction, which I found to be quite good. It sucked up everything in its path. (It will not, however, pick up large/heavy debris. Like small rocks.) What it does affect, is the machine’s ability to pick up things along the edges and in the corners. This is why it is not ideal for deep cleaning and will not replace all other floor cleaners. You have to go back and do the edges with something else.
The floors dry quicker with this mop than with any other I’ve tried, and that would be a lot. Especially if you use the heavy duty pad. Fabulous. My Bissell always leave my floors so wet.
It does not vac and steam simultaneously. This does not bother me, because I’m not willing to sacrifice the power of the steam or the power of the suction just to have them happen simultaneously. If you don’t mind inferior steam and suction (hence, inferior cleaning) in order to have the process go faster, the Bissell Steam & Sweep would be a better choice for you.
The vac is quite loud. Again, I’d rather it be loud and good and picking things up than soft with weak suction. Would I use it right outside the room of a sleeping baby? No. Does it wake up my children who are sleeping down the hall? No.
Steam does not generally work miracles, like getting old paint off of wood floors. It does leave a squeaky, residue-free clean that I love, and acts much more quickly than plain old elbow grease at cutting through dirt and grime.
The water reservoir is a bit small. If you go over spots again and again, it will run out after one room. If your floor is already relatively clean and you’re just doing maintenance, it will last decently long. You have to use a cup and funnel to fill it. I actually like this better than filling the tank up in the sink, it’s always a pain to have to get the water in the small opening in the tank from the stream of water from my tap. I prefer filling up an open cup and having the funnel so I don’t have to be so careful, goes faster for me. But you may not agree.
The mop head is wide, and therefore does not fit into small spots, like behind the toilet.
It didn’t streak my laminate, wood, linoleum or tile floors. It should only do this if your floor is very dirty, or grimey. In which case you’d need to go over it again with a clean pad.
The head is a bit high, so it may not get under some furniture. I had no problem getting under the cabinets, however it would not get under the stove.
I know this is long, but I wanted to address some of the issues listed in other reviews. Again, I still have to pick up larger debris by hand, and use something else to do the edges, but for everyday cleaning it is very convenient. I only have to carry one machine up and down the stairs instead of dragging around both a vacuum and steam mop. I really don’t think you can beat the squeaky and chemical free clean of steam. And this one has very strong steam (except when recharging) and will leave you with a pretty dry floor. No need to go back and dry it. If you keep up your floors regularly, you shouldn’t have trouble with the power of the vac. If you have built up dirt (or bought/are renting a place previously lived in by not so clean people) this alone probably won’t cut it.
A little about me: Two kids, one dog and regular cleaner (no built up grime to speak of). While not perfect, for me, this is the best hard floor cleaning solution out there.

|Worked great for me,
I bought this product without reading any reviews first and I’m glad i didnt. I love it. It is not hard to push at all in either mode. I didnt have any trouble with the pick up. it sucked up everything on my floor without pushing it around or blowing it like my regular vac does. I really liked the mop, had to go over a few spots a couple times, but its was way better than scrubbing on my hands and knees like i used to do. plus its sanitary without having to spend money on all kinds of chemicals. my favorite part is when i’m done i can walk through my kitchen and dining room without having stuff stuck to the bottom of my feet(my biggest pet peeve).

|Small and easy to use,
I just received this item. I unpacked and used it on my fridge compressor. It seems to work well. My complaint is about the power brush. I was putting it away and the power brush was attached to the hose. As I put it down, it flipped down and hit the ground. A very minor fall, but the power brush broke apart into pieces. It looks like I might be able to put it back together, but who knows. There aren’t any instructions on how to do that.
**UPDATE** I just wanted to add that both Amazon and the manufacturer were fantastic in dealing with this problem! After contacting Euro-Pro directly, they are going to send me a replacement power brush. So, I updated my rating to a 4 star.

|Great Product,
Overall this product is great. It is portable, lightweight and small so it can be stored almost anywhere. It has the suction and power of a large vacuum in a portable size. It is great for hard to reach areas, bare floors, carpet, ceilings and furniture. The only problem I have is cord storage….the cord length is great but there is no where to store the cord on the machine. I have been trying to put the cord around the attachment bar, but that really dosen’t work well. There is minimal but easy assembly and the dust cup holds alot. There is an attachment for pretty much any job. so if you want a portable vacuum with the power and suction capabilities of a large vacuum…choose this one!!
