Es mi primera aspiradora y al recibir buenas criticas de la pagina de amazon de EU decidí probar suerte con esta, tengo pisos de azulejo tipo madera en mi casa y el uso del trapeador y la escoba solamente al principio fue suficiente pero con el tiempo empezaron a acumular entre los bordes suciedad que no pude quitar con escoba y trapeador y que solo cepillando se removía. El cepillar todos los pisos de la casa no era algo que me gustaría hacer constantemente para que los pisos amaderados lucieran bien, por lo que adquirí esta aspiradora, y fue una agradable sorpresa ya que con la primera pasada se vio una mejora que si lo hacia con puro trapeador, al pasar la aspiradora cepilla realmente los pisos y los deja muy bien, no tan bien que si pasaras cepillo manualmente. Una de las cosas que me encanto es que ahora no tengo que ensuciarme las manos para secar el trapeador y cambiar el agua constantemente por lo sucia que queda despues de una pasada, ya que la aspiradora cuenta con un tanque para el agua con jabon y otro para recoger la suciedad, por lo que el agua que el piso recibe todo el tiempo es limpia y no agua sucia o medio sucia por las pasadas que se le da con la jerga. La Floormate cuenta con un boton que de acuerdo a las instrucciones se utiliza en los casos en que hay una mancha mas pegada o el piso esta mas sucio sin embargo en mi caso en particular tengo que presionar todo el tiempo este boton ya que de lo contrario no limpia el piso bien, pues por los bordes de los pisos estos absorben mas agua. Por esta misma situación he decidido mejor antes de pasar la aspiradora pasar la jerga rápidamente por el piso para que este se humedezca y al pasar la aspiradora pueda remover mejor la suciedad. Un dia se inundo una de las habitaciones por una fuga y con ayuda de la aspiradora seque inmediatamente, ya me habia pasado alguna vez en otro cuarto por tener mucha presion en la tuberia y para limpiar todo me llevo una hora aproximadamente pero en esta ocasion con ayuda de la aspiradora secar me llevo unos 15 minutos. Por ultimo cabe mencionar que la aspiradora no es capaz de aspirar mas que polvo, pelos de animales cuando mucho, pues si por ejemplo hay un grano maíz palomero este no sera aspirado, por lo que antes de pasar la aspiradora debe pasar la escoba. Después que se acabo el limpiador liquido que viene en el paquete utilicé fabuloso con agua y me funciono muy bien.

Cleaning is my life. With 11 cats and a clumsy husband, it has to be. I owned the original model Floormate back at the turn of the century. It worked fantastically for 9 years and then started to fail in various ways. I've been using a Swiffer wet mop ever since. Lately, the Swiffer has been leaving streaks and some sort of white film on all my floors, so I bought another Floormate. Right out of the box, this one is superior to the first. The tanks are on either side, allowing you to get under lower objects when cleaning. The controls are straightforward, allowing even an instruction manual tosser like me to use it right away. The brushes scrub dirt off the floor. Now, if your careless spouse dripped syrup on the floor and nobody noticed for a week, you're going to have to go over it quite a few times. The Swiffer would never get that up. To address the issues some others have had: Go slow. Give the brushes time to work. Remember that the brushes engage and the nozzle pressurizes and sprays with each forward pass. On the backward pass, all of that has to switch gears and the squeegee has to engage. Also remember that none of this happens instantly. It's a floor cleaner, not a life support machine. If you run it back and forth quickly like a vacuum, no, it won't clean well. As for the leakage: Yes, it does leak a bit. But again, you have to remember the mechanism and the fact that the entire bottom of the machine gets wet while it does its thing. Give it an extra backward pass to compensate. And when you stop cleaning and take off the tanks, that little reservoir where the cleaner tank connects has water in it. Blot it out with a paper towel and it won't leave a puddle on your floor. This machine cleans really well, judging by the gray and brown water in the holding tank. That came off my freshly Swiffered floor. It handled my tile extremely well, cleaning muck off of it in one pass and doing a halfway decent job with the grout. The regular laminate floors worried me because any amount of water on them makes it swell and curl, so I went gently, not using too much solution and making sure to get it extra dry. Yes, it did leave streaks, but that smooth, shiny surface is prone to them. The LVP came clean in the wink of an eye and because of the wood grain texture, had no streaks. My sheet vinyl came clean easily, though there were a few extra passes to get up the kitchen grease that spatters in front of the stove. I love that this is so light and compact. I'm a small person and large machines make me not want to use them. It feels quite sturdy and I think it might well last as long as my old one did, or perhaps longer. I have no trouble at all recommending this to a friend because the darn thing simply works.

I got tired of mopping my floors, so I bought myself this. I love it. Description is exact. But heavier than a vacuum and a bit louder too. Cleans my apt laminate floor and tiled bathroom floor with ease. Easy to snap together. Comes with a small bottle of cleaning solution. Only thing, it is hard to find the cleaning solution that goes with it in stores, most is carpet cleaner from this brand, cant use solution that has lots of suds. DIY solution should work as long as its not bleach or dish soap.

Totally love this updated model. We had one for years at another home and used it mainly for our entrance way & kitchen tile floor. With 3 dogs and a lot of foot traffic given the central location in our home, it got a lot of hard use and served us well. That model had a much smaller container for the cleaning liquid so it required multiple refills to finish the floor. It really never stopped working, we just decided it was time to let it go so it didn't make the move with us. The new model we just received has a larger container for the cleaning fluid and works great! We have a lot of tile floors as we are in south Florida now and I didn't but this right away -- so I just used a manual spray/push mop and soon decided that was ridiculous :) In looking at all the different floor cleaners available, I decided once again this was the best bang for your buck! Certainly cuts the time in half and much easier on your back than a manual mop! This is worth every penny and a lot of bang for your buck without going to a more expensive machine. I usually sweep up at least in the kitchen first, so I don't expect this to be a vacuum cleaner, but it does have enough suction and pull up whatever is left behind. I don't expect to use it to clean our area rugs, but I have run it over a thin throw rug and it works fine. We don't have wood flooring but this seems to put out just enough moisture to do the job so it would not oversaturate your flooring and should work well. I like that it also has a trigger you can use for extra cleaning solvent to be dispensed for a tough spot on the floor. Just like after I would mop, I don't expect the floor to be completely 100% dry when I'm finished, but this does have a "wet / dry" lever and the dry side does pull up any excess fluid on the floor so in my book it works great and whatever is left behind dries up quickly. I hope it lasts us as long as the other one (many years!) and this one won't have to work quite as hard because our layout is different and we have fewer dogs now. So this is a good little workhorse and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!

El producto es bastante bueno. Lástima la capacidad que lo obliga a uno a tener que llenar el receptáculo varias veces. Tal vez para áreas pequeñas funcione bien una sola llenada, pero para áreas grandes hay que llenar dos o tres veces el tanque. Fuera de eso, talla los pisos de maravilla, ojo funciona aún mejor si se pasa muy despacio y se deja actuar bien a los cepillos y a la succión. De hacerlo así los pisos quedan como en su anuncio secos, así que si hay que dedicarle un tiempo. Los productos de limpieza duran muchos usos si se compran en original. En realidad limpia bien pero no es el producto de 10 minutos antes de que lleguen los invitados, hay que darle su tiempo a trabajar para que deje los pisos como tallados a mano. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
