I just bought a steamer today so am glad to hear all the good reviews. Am going to try it out tomorrow.

They aren't really that expensive if they work as well as all of you say. I paid $119.00 at Walmart

Well, I used my new steam mop today and it is great! You all weren't kidding when you said how good they were. Wish I would have bought one before now

I'd love a steam mop... but mom said the sponge mop is fine... so I thought to myself... whatever... it will no longer be my problem when I leave for school ;)

We only have a few trouble spots in the kitchen... but I do the floor three times...

Once on my hands and knees... to get the hard areas out
Once with floor soap
and once with bleach.

Our wood floors are another story... I have to mop them three times at least (due to not wanting to mop them every day... we are actually considering getting carpet... reason... faster clean up!!
