[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fresh floors fast. Easy to manage and works well. Only draw back is continuous pulling on the trigger to disperse the steam.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not a good steamer. Unwieldy, cheap attachments. Recommend a Shark.

Steamed my kitchen floor immediately and was so pleased with the result. Excited to use it all over my house.

Disappointing Performance
on November 28, 2025
Posted by: Chrissy
I purchased this steam mop primarily for its promised ability to clean walls, but unfortunately, it severely underperforms.
The primary issue is the sheer weight of the unit. Because the combo incorporates the handheld steamer into the main unit, the handle is extremely heavy. After just a few minutes of mopping, my arm and wrist were fatigued.
This weight problem is compounded by a terrible design choice: you must depress and hold the power button the entire time you are mopping to generate steam. This requires constant, tiring pressure, making a simple chore unnecessarily difficult and painful.
Furthermore, the machine simply does not generate enough heat. Despite following the instructions, the steam output did not get hot enough to feel like it was truly sanitizing or effectively cleaning tough spots. It felt more like a damp, heavy wipe than a powerful steam cleaner.
Finally, attempting to use the handheld or upright unit on vertical surfaces like walls is nearly impossible. Not only is the handle too heavy to maneuver comfortably overhead, but the excessively responsive swivel head means the mop pad spins wildly. Instead of allowing for controlled up-and-down motions on the wall, the head constantly swivels sideways, making any attempt at precision cleaning utterly frustrating.
Overall, this unit is awkward, tiring to use, and fails to deliver on its core promise of powerful steam cleaning. I do not recommend it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have trouble getting a strong steam to come out. The accessories are cheap and won’t last long. Wondering if I got a lemon.

We’re sorry to hear you’re having trouble with your PowerFresh® Slim Steam Mop and that the accessories didn’t meet your expectations. Weak steam can sometimes be caused by mineral buildup, so running a vinegar-water solution through the machine may help. If that doesn’t resolve it, please contact us at support.bissell.com so we can review your options. Thank you for sharing your feedback.
