Are steam mops useful at all? Well if you are someone who likes to disinfect your home using chemical based cleaners, a steam mop is a good chemical free alternative to disinfect. Some steam mops also come with attachments that help you steam different types of surfaces - for example your kitchen countertop for stubborn oil stains, grout in your tiles, your bathroom walls and so on. Remember not all steam mops have these attachments - some are pure floor mops, some come with additional attachments.
The two main reasons I am apprehensive about steam mops.
The run time - steam mops have a run time of 15-25 minutes only after which you need to give it a break from steaming. This can be a very short time if you are mopping your entire house or you are doing deep cleaning of specific areas of your house - like bathrooms.
The connectivity - since these are corded - a long cord length is required if you want to cover an entire room without continuing to switch the plugpoint every time you want to clean a different portion of the room. This can be worked around by using an extension cord but this can be a hassle for daily cleaning. In addition, some of the models don’t have an Indian plug point so you may need an adapter.
There are not too many steam mop models in the market currently. Given the specifications of the models available currently - consider a steam mop only when:
If you have a small to medium sized house - since the run time is small, a steam mop cannot be used easily for one continuous cleaning in a large house. If you can mop your house in less than 15-25 minutes - then you can consider this.
If you don’t like to use chemical disinfectants - a steam mop can be an alternative for using chemicals in your mopping water.
If you are looking for an answer for deep cleaning surfaces and grout - some steam mops have attachments that you can use for cleaning your kitchen counter tops, windows, shower doors, grout. These can be useful for cleaning the surfaces and grout. Based on reviews, tough grout stains do not go but if you are just about starting to get grout, this may be useful.
By now if you are convinced you need a steam mop - which one to buy? I compared Deerma, multiple models of Black and Decker and multiple models of Eureka Forbes. My main criteria was run time as a short run time does not help at all in this case. Other factors considered were wattage, cord length, swivel angle, attachments. Here are my top two recommendations:
If you are looking for one with both floor and surface cleaning - I recommend the BLACK+DECKER 1321 which has a 20 minute run time, a 1600W motor - which is one of the highest, a 6m cord length - which is again one of the highest amongst all models compared. With a 3.8 rating and around a 10,000 rupees price point, this model is ideal as a multi purpose steam mop
If you are only looking for floor cleaning - I recommend the BLACK+DECKER 1620 which has the best run time of 25 minutes, a 1600W motor, and a 4m cord length. With a 3.7 rating and around 7.5k price point, this model is ideal as a single purpose floor steam mop.
Both of these models offer a 1 year warranty on the product, can be up and running with steam in 15 seconds and have a 180 degree swivel for more flexibility in cleaning. - Věda a technologie
*Would you consider purchasing a steam mop - Yes or No?* - Saumya
No
Did purchase the black and decker 13 in 1 but my wife doesn't like using it as it is too heavy.
Hi Saumya. Which is better - steam mop like this or iRobot Brava? 1. I prefer to use some floor clear / disinfectant 2. My kitchen floor gets dirty pretty easily / frequently
Hi , I would like you to explore cordless wet mops for smaller areas (eg Tineco )
Hi Saumya, Yes I am planning to buy steam mop from Shark brand.
Hi, excellent narration with all the details. Simple yet very clear and effective product analysis. Thank you
Bissell, 2747A is awsome STEAM Machine. Just did my hard floors and they get vacuumed and steamed cleaned. Wonderful.
Which steam cleaner should I buy to clean sofa and carpet ma'am?thanku
Hi, I am looking for a model that can clean floor and surface. The one you suggested that b/d fsmh1321 is not available. Pls suggest me another one.
Which steam mop or electric mop should i buy for kitchen floor cleaning?
Thanks, is the robot vaccum cleaner with mop are really worth. I feel most of the reviews are not geniune in amazon which one is good in india with the service available.
Hello, need it for my showroom, what would u recommend..Karcher or some other brand?
Hi, perhaps you could include details about the steam output. That's an important paramter.
It'd be great if you could offer inputs on that. Thanks!
Hi Saumya, I use the B&D 13E5 model. It works well for me. I use it continuously for 30mins-1hr, to clean my 3BHK (1530sq ft). I take break just to refill the water tank after cleaning around 2 rooms. Steam gets produced in few seconds. Cleaning quality is good as the microfiber mop pad wipes up all dirt with the help of steam. But if I use the same pad for whole house, it gets too dirty, depending on how dirty the floor was to begin with. Either we can wash the mop after cleaning half house and then continue, or use the refill pad (purchased separately) and clean both at the end. If the floor is regularly cleaned and less dirty, one pad can be used for whole house without any break. The main issue is the cord length as I find it insufficient to cover a big room like living, from one end. We may need to change the plug points at different corners. To work around this, I bought an extension cord and connect the mop to it which works well for me. I keep the extension connected at the middle of the apartment (dining), and from there I can move the steam mop to all rooms without switching plug points. I use only filter water for refill, as very less water is required for cleaning (around 3 cups for whole house). I use steam mop and spin mop alternatively (either, once a month), to get the water cleaning satisfaction too. Hope this review helps.
Hi Priya, very helpful! Thank you! Are you able to use it for more than 30 min without it stopping or getting heated? Cos this was one of the problems many people have highlighted regarding steam mops
@@TheGrapevineIndia Yes, the machine has not stopped on its own or got heated beyond limit. But I have to stop it in between, maybe in 10-15 minutes, to refill water while it is stopped for a few minutes and then restarted. Since I mop my home only once a month, and that too with spin mop at times, I can say that I have used the steam mop only a few times in the last one year (since I purchased it). No issues so far. It is very convenient if we decide to do a quick mop, as there is no hassle of bucket and water. Only the mop pad needs to be washed after cleaning, which can be done over a sink or in bathroom. Some people use washing machine, which I don't prefer due to hygiene reasons.
@@Priya-dm5ow hi Priya would like to know how the mop performance after these many months of use , want to get an idea about its durability and also pls let me know if there is any issues u faced or drawbacks, it would be really helpful
can steam cleaner be useful for eradicating bed bugs ?
Great and adequate info. Thanks.
Thank you, this was really useful for me, cause I just need one for mopping..I already have one for other uses, I lost my mopping attachment on the prestige one lol..can't find it online so...thanks Hun xX
Thank u for the details
I use the B&D 13E5 model. It runs for long periods. I just need to keep filling it with water. I use an extension cord to deal with the cord length problem. However, I've found it leaves water stains on the floor. It gets the floors really clean and the swivel head is perfect for getting into corners. If you've got a build-up of dirt in a corner, the steam mop will get it out in no time.
Hi Susan, thanks for sharing your feedback!
Hi susan as I'm too planning to take this B & D 13E5 model but in Amazon the reviews are not gud...pls can u suggest from what time ur using it? And where can we purchase their mob pads?
@@syeda9822 So far I have not faced any problems with this model. I used it for an hour yesterday and it worked well throughout. I bought extra pads from amazon, but a different seller.
I want to know when u purchased it? months or years?
Even I need to know... as I am planning to purchase...
Thank you Saumya so much for fulfilling my request 🙏🏼
Hi Suresh, hope it was helpful! It was intriguing to research 😊
What about karcher sc3 and sc4?
Great insight Saumya, Thank you once again, you are always spot on. Been using the BLACK+DECKER Steam Mop (forget the precise model No) for a Year now. Ticks all the boxes - Except - the mop Velcro wears off pretty quickly. Aside that its a pretty nifty gadget esp for NCR homes as the dust factor which we've here is perhaps 10 times than that rest of the country - esp BLR & BOM have literally no dust.
Hi Prashant! Good to know, thanks for sharing! Oh BLR has horrible amount of dust, not to mention that it is a city that is always in construction mode.
Where i live in mumbai is also really dusty
very clear well researched video.
Thank you, Prita! Glad you found it useful!
Hi Saumya, please give your input on standing vaccum cleaner. These are with cord. Please give your comments
I stand corrected, it's upright vaccum cleaner like by Agaro. Please give your input, is it worth buying. I have dyson which I don't enjoy as I find it heavy. Once in a while I find okay. But for daily cleaning i need a lighter vaccum.
Hi Shelly, what is your usecase? If daily cleaning of floors, I recommend getting a robot vacuum cleaner. If it is for daily dusting, I prefer a cordless like Dyson cos' of its convenience. For deep cleaning, I recommend a regular corded vacuum cleaner. Here is a comparison I made which you may find useful czcams.com/video/0OMO8UNumCE/video.html. Let me know your requirement - so I can guide you better.
@@TheGrapevineIndia hi Saumya, first of all thanks for your reply. I need vacuum for daily cleaning. I don’t feel like using Dyson daily because my hands starts hurting.Robot vacuum seems to be a good idea. Now please recommend one. Thanks dear
Hi Shelly, these are my best recommended ones - amzn.to/3BltjUq or amzn.to/3eL6QG0. Prefer the first one.
Thank you once again for your suggestion.
Clean, to the point no BS video. 👍
Please give any wet mop options available in India. Either robot wet mop or manual cordless wet mop. Looking for good wet mopping solutions.
Hi Pavithra, I've shared with you the options before.

Hi ..
I want to buy a robotic vaccum cleaner. I am getting confused while choosing it between mi & realme in terms of performance and service.. Can you please help me with it
Hi Satyanarayana - you can refer to this video I made comparing the two models - czcams.com/video/wKbl7U1G9FM/video.html
I think you have a reason for not including two major brands in the steam cleaning business - Bissell and Karcher. While Bissell steam mops looks more like the ones you compared, the Karcher models look like cannister vacuum cleaners and come with different attachments. I have found my steam cleaner (not mop) great for cleaning melted cheese from the sandwich maker, cleaning stove, cleaning windows and shelves, etc.
Hi Sreelakshmi! Yes Bissel and Karcher have kind of outpriced themselves out of the market. Therefore I did not include those.
Hi, would like to know which model of steam cleaner do you use?
Thank Y sister
Glad you found it useful!
Nice
Thank you :)
Hey since they are cord device they don't they have unlimited steam since steam is generated continuously
Hey Swati! That’s what I thought initially! But they actually do have a runtime after which you have to give it a break and restart.
How long does one have to wait before using again?
Hi - About 15-20 min.
Why don't you review about vaccum wet mops like tinco
Hi Pavithra, in plan :)
I think hoover is good 1600w
Sorry it's called the FC9, cordless vacuum cleaner from forbes
Hi Harini, are you referring to this one? amzn.to/3EfB3Za
@@TheGrapevineIndia no soumya, latest FC 9 cordless vacuum cleaner, does not have blower I think. It was featured by one of the u tuber- home gupshup...
Sorry was not able to find it. Can you send me a link?
Hi soumya, I have sent u the link on insta, I hope u can see it. I am pretty bad at technology, so pls let me know if u were able to see. Want your technical expertise on it...
Thanks Harini, will take a look at it later today.
Suggestions regarding mcturing laseron s9
Hi Guru prasad, I don't see the specs completely on the website yet so cannot comment. But it definitely looks better than A3 tarr with Lidar, multi map and selective cleaning.
@@TheGrapevineIndia thanks
As it is not cordless and less runtime so👎
Can u compare Forbes cordless latest vacuum cleaner F9C
Hi Harini, are you referring to this one? amzn.to/3EfB3Za
Anybody using black and decker 1620 in India, chennai... Need customer care service and spare parts available? Pls need Real feedback.. bcos i thought to buy...
Hi Priya, recommend you to post that question here amzn.to/3ak2mYi. You may be able to get an answer quicker.
Already checked Amazon reviews. Apart from dat am asking anybody review and ur opinion...
Hope you have not included karcher
No Koushik, Karcher is in a much higher pricepoint and not as handy.
My goodness.
