Being a gardener and kitty owner, immaculate floors were never a priority. When I re-enter a room I cleaned earlier, I&#8217;m surprised at how clean the floors look. That means they were pretty rough before and I&#8217;ll be winning no good housekeeping awards anytime soon. Well, at least I don&#8217;t have clutter. I like space between my molecules. I like being able to see at a glance into all the corners and under everything in my rooms. I could argue that after &#8220;a friend&#8221; put down the tile, they did not tell me it needed to be sealed.\u00a0 So the white tile shows the ground-in dirt from the past decade and every scuff mark ever made. I thought I&#8217;d have to have a professional out to buff the floors then seal it, but I see I can keep it a lot cleaner than I&#8217;ve been doing, with little effort. I like not having to use chemicals on my floor to get it clean. The refillable water reservoir lasts about the length of time to takes to do a room (maybe 15 minutes), letting it steam up to 15 seconds on tough areas. Good investment, I&#8217;m digging it!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/?p=10399\" rel=\"bookmark\">I\u2019ve been cleaning my floors like a mad man<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE:<\/strong> I used it about 2-3 times a month for six months, then let it sit for 2 months. It no longer dispenses the steam and the little screw-on water reservoir cap is coming apart as it would do from being over tightened.\u00a0 I never over tightened it. Other reviewers said this as well, although this was the highest reviewed steam mop at Amazon.\u00a0 It was out of warranty and no replacement part available.<\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/am-loving-my-new-steam-mop\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Am loving my new steam mop&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/am-loving-my-new-steam-mop\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/am-loving-my-new-steam-mop\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/am-loving-my-new-steam-mop\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=Am%20loving%20my%20new%20steam%20mop&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/am-loving-my-new-steam-mop\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I keep taking breaks from working on the mag to clean my floors with\u00a0 my first ever Steam Mop \u2014 A Bissell PowerFresh.
