The water container is hard to get off. I need to wait till my husband is home to refill because I can't get it off :( Cord is still too short.

This is my 3rd Shark Steam Mop, 1st I LOVE that it is light and the pads are fantastic! As always the shark does a fabulous job! I have two complaints: 1. the water tank is almost impossible to remove, am I just supposed to yank it off? I feel like I am going to break the tab that holds it on, is there a trick to getting to to come off? 2. I REALLY have to pump it a LOT to get the steam going and to keep it steaming while I am using it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

the water tank is EXTREMELY hard to get off. I have tried by myself and cannot get it off. it is useless if I cannot take off myself.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I've had this for several months. Got it as a promotion when I purchased my new vacuum! I must say that for large areas you need several pads because they pick up A LOT of dirt!!!! I do love it. Mostly use it in my smaller rooms and for spot cleaning but it's amazing! The cord is not as long as i would like but nothing else bad to say!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What a Waste
on March 9, 2026
Posted by: Weaverde
I received this product when I purchased another larger product (carpet shampoo machine). While it did sway me at the time to make that purchase (I was already in the market for a carpet cleaner), I would not repeat the purchase. The steamer I had from shark worked great but it is no longer available neither are the pads, or I would still be using it.
This is a great let down for a shark product. And because I have used and liked shark for a long time, I went ahead and bought two extra mop heads so that I always had one available. Now it looks like I totally wasted that money. Here's why:
1. there is no on/off button 2. there is no ability to have a built in cleaning product (like my old one) 3. in order to get steam you have to pump the handle... so you pump the handle, it steams for a little bit, then you have to pump the handle again...and again...and again. 4. there is no way to determine the amount of steam you want (like the old one) It seem like, although I could be wrong, when you stop to pump it, if you pump it several times you will get a fuller amount of steam coming out. 5. it has a much smaller water reservoir, so you have to continually stop to refill it for bigger jobs. 6. it has a much smaller length of cord, so for doing big jobs you are forced to relocate the plug more frequently.
No. There is not one good thing that I can say about this machine, except I will have to look elsewhere for my next steamer if this is the kind of junk that Shark is going to put out.
I wholeheartedly do NOT recommend this machine to anyone. If I could give it 5 negative stars I would. Just keep looking!

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback with us. We’re truly sorry to hear how disappointing your experience has been with this steam mop, especially since you’ve relied on Shark products for so many years and had great results with your previous model. Your loyalty means a lot to us, and we understand how frustrating it is when a newer version doesn’t meet the performance or convenience you’ve come to expect. The concerns you listed, from the lack of an on/off button, to needing to pump for steam, the smaller reservoir, shorter cord, and reduced convenience features, are not the experience we want you to have. We appreciate you outlining each point so clearly, and we will be sharing this feedback with our product team as we continue developing future steam mops. We’d also like the chance to take a closer look at your unit and explore options to help make this right. Please reach out to us through our support page so we can assist you directly: https://support.sharkninja.com/contact-us Thank you again for sharing your experience, we’re here to help however we can.

Nice, easy to use. Only problem is pads get dirty quick and then basically spread it around. Need multiple pads to get floors cleaned.
I would recommend this to a friend!
