Huge disappointment! I had a previous shark steam mop that I purchased over 10 years ago but it accidentally got left behind during a move. So I thought I would just buy the same thing however that one is no longer available. So I purchased this shark ninja steamer, which is nowhere near the quality I was used to has a little tiny tank only came with one pad and it just does not get the job done. It’s junk.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love my steam mop! Easy to use, cleans without leaving any streaks or residue. Cord is not very long but still reaches where I need it to clean , just requires unplugging it and moving to different outlets to get job done but heats up super quickly so not really any inconvenience. The only complaint I have is that cleaning pads don’t wash clean. After using mop, washed cleaning pads in washing machine but they still look dirty.
I hate mopping my floors. So I would vacuum and spot clean noticeable areas that the floor vacuum couldn’t clean. Because this mop is so simple I just grab it off of the wall and do a quick steaming in the high traffic areas. It doesn’t make the grout between the tiles magically white but it does a better job than a mop and I’ll use it more often. Pros: Nontoxic - pets won’t be licking house cleaner off their paws. Lightweight - easy to hang on the wall and care upstairs. Preheats fast and is easy to change out the cleaning pad. Stands up on it’s own without having to lean it against something. Cons: Needs treated water if you live in a hard water area, however it doesn’t need much water to cover a large area. I just use our treated bottle water and it seems to work fine. Cleaning pads need their own wash cycle. The steam just comes out of the middle section of the pad so middle section cleans better than edges.
I purchased the steam mop one year and 7 days ago. Using it two days ago, the mop was failing to steam and the handle action that generates the steam just wasn't working. I cam here to look into a warranty repair only to learn I'm 7 days late. It was great while it lasted, which compared to other Shark products I've purchased was not long enough.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to have the chance to help.
We bought this when we bought our first home in 2022. 4 years later and it is still an essential part of our cleaning routine. We have 2 toddlers and always feel like we need to clean our floors for sanitary reasons but also because they're messy! The heat from the steam is great for getting sticky messes off the floor; and there are a lot of those around here! It's easy to use, light weight, and small enough to throw into a corner to store. The power cord is a decent length but I wish it was just a bit like longer. I would recommend getting a couple replacement pads so if one is in the wash there's another one clean.

It is still new with me. The old one also worked fine in the begining. These machines are not overused since I used them in my vacation home. I don't see any difference yet, compared to my old one except that the color of the water tank is darker. I will have to wait and see. I did appreciate your response in your service department, but I don't have an opinion on the quality of the product yet
