Cheaply made, poor quality

Received this new model about a week ago. I was very disappointed as soon as I began to unpack it. Cheap plastic; not anywhere near the quality of my last 2 steam mops. I will use it until it breaks or stops working which I am guessing will be much sooner than my previous two.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on the Shark SteamSpot. We’re truly sorry to hear that the product didn’t meet your expectations, especially compared to the steam mops you’ve owned in the past. We understand how disappointing this feels, particularly when the materials and build quality aren’t what you were hoping for. We appreciate you letting us know about your experience, and we’ll be sure to share your feedback with our team.
Bought this as an upgrade to the old Shark steamer. I love the new feature of the water reservoir because it makes it much easier to fill. I love the change to the velcro pad because the old pads got to where they would not velcro shut after a few washings. The only drawback to this model is that the cord is not as long as the old model. Don't know why you would shorten the cord. Aside from the shorter cord we love it.
Love it I originally bought a different one but didn’t like how it worked so I gave it to my daughter she loves it I’m kind of old fashion. While I was looking for something Padless I realized they’re more my style. I love the older model “ Shark Steam Pocket ” but they were out of them at the time of purchase. So the Shark SteamSpot Steam Mop with Steam Blaster was. My second option. I must say it works pretty good.
Utilized on three surfaces with the 3 different settings. Sealed hardwood floors, bathroom tile and linoleum. Worked great and removed a lot of dirt. Floors are vacuum and mopped routinely but the steam mop allowed for better cleaning.
With 4 kids and 2 wild cats who love to leave me presents this Shark SteamSpot steam mop has been a miracle for my house. With baby crawling and walking everywhere, this was super easy to get started and use right away. I love how lightweight overall the steam mop is. XL removable water tank that fills 16.9 fl oz of water (or 500ml). I love that its chemical free and just use water! Comes with 2 washable pads that doesn't get ruined after several washes. Very simple to stick them on and steam away the dirty floor. I've tried this on varies of floors, from tiles to hardwood to laminate. Works excellent on all! Too bad it doesn't steam the carpets hah. This steam mop has 3 modes for steaming, I tend to use maximum level and it does a fantastic job. I love how it lasts to cover my entire kitchen, living room and laundry room plus halls before I need to add more water! That's a lot, with the fact I have a spacious home with lots of space. If you press the handle, it releases more steam for extra spot on cleaning! I can't believe I didn't have this steam mop sooner! All those vacuums I've ever owned didn't do it's justice comparing to this product. Love steaming as it kills those germs. One way I'd improve this product is having the cord being a retractable cord for easier to manage cord. The cord itself is long and there are hooks to wrap it around when cleaning or putting it away but I think a retractable cord would be a better design.
Disappointed — Broke After Only Three Years with L

I’m really disappointed with this Shark steam mop. I’ve had it S3973 for only about three years, and I use it very lightly — maybe once or twice a month. Despite that, it suddenly stopped working properly. The steam now leaks from the top where the water tank connects to the mop body, and almost no steam comes out from the mop head.
I expected a Shark product to last much longer, especially with such minimal use. It’s frustrating to see it fail so soon. Definitely not worth the price for the quality and durability.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
