Works GREAT!
By Gary A. Smith on Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2008
Reliable T1 Steam Mop Deluxe Kit We just moved into a new house and had over 1600 sq. ft. of porcelian tile installed. We moved from a house with all carpet, so cleaning the tile was a new experience. We started with a dust mop for sweeping up (a daily chore), then cleaned the dog prints with a sponge mop. The dust mop was OK, but the sponge mop was becoming a major chore. We did find a web site that recommended some O-Cedar mop products we tried them out, but still a major chore. By accident, we were watching a Infomercial on TV that raved about a steam mop product. It looked so easy, we almost bought one on the spot, but common sense prevailed and we went to the web to check out reviews. Oops, the TV product got pretty poor reviews, so back to the drawing board. While reading the steam mop reviews we ran across the Relaiable Steamboy at Amazon. Most of the reviews were good, and as always there were some poor ones to go along with the good. After careful review it appeared that the poor reviews could have been user error. We were getting desperate. Since the Steamboy had a number of good reviews we felt we would give it a try. What a WONDERFUL product. We have been using it for a week with excellent sucess. Just water and the proof is in the pad. From the looks of all the dirt on the pad as we are cleaning, we must have been living like pigs. (Actually we have two dogs and they don't help). FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS. Just water, wait 20 - 30 seconds for it to warm up and when you first start it is a little dry so you need to push it around a bit while holding the button down to dampen the mop. Within a minute the mop is damp and the dirt comes up. We bought extra mop pads, which is a good plan. We use at least two pads to do the house, but it is shiny clean. The floor dries in around 5 minutes and all is great. We highly recommend the product.

Great Concept, Failure of a Product
By OutdoorMama on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2009
I really, really wanted to love this steam cleaner. I tried to overlook the annoying flaws like the fact that it falls over all the time, the water compartment leaks, and the cord doesn't hook onto itself. I wanted to proof my family wrong. They all said it looked like another stupid, gimmicky product, and they were right. The idea of steam cleaning is great, but this product is a huge letdown. It leaves far too much water behind and you still have to get down on your hands and knees to scrub any time you have anything substantial on the floor. I am fairly tall and the steam cleaner hurts my back after just mopping our small kitchen. I find I have to lift the product up and drag it towards me in order to not leave a trail of dirt. And all the hoopla about getting into corners and tight spaces, well forget it. Get your sponge out, there isn't any real improvement there over a mop. In the end the quantity of flaws make me wish I had saved the money.
