If you’ve spent any amount of time looking for a steam mop, you’ve probably come to the conclusion that their are plenty of “good ones” to pick from.
I’d like to share some of the pros and cons of the Eureka Enviro Steamer so that you can make an educated decision when purchasing your next steam mop.
Here are the Best Features of the Eureka Enviro Steam Mop:
1. It’s very lightweight. The Eureka Enviro Steamer Mop comes in at just 5 pounds. Unlike traditional floor model steamers, you’re not going to be breaking your back lugging this steam mop up and down the stairs.
2. It has a very convenient swivel head. When you need to get in all those little cracks and crevices, the swivel head is a must.
3. It heats the water to a whopping 220 degrees. The key to any steam mop is the ability to heat the water hot enough to cut through the grime and grease on your floors. Some of the other lightweight model steam cleaners just don’t come through when it comes to heating the water effectively. The Enviro Steam cleaner gets it hot…like 220 degrees hot!
4. Fast heat up time. The Enviro Steamer can heat water in 3 minutes or less. After all, who wants to wait around to clean your floors. We’re all busy…so getting the floor cleaned needs to be a quick task…not something you wait around for all morning.
5. Less scrubbing through efficient use of weight placement. Because the Enviro Steamer has the weight towards the floor, you are actually using the weight of the water to assist with scrubbing through that layer of grime and buildup…making your job that much easier.
6. Say goodbye to trashy supplies and harmful chemicals. Unlike so many other ways you can clean your floors, the Eureka Enviro Steamer (and any steam mop for that matter) does not use harsh chemicals (which also stink up your house) or create trash bags full of trash to put in a landfill somewhere. It’s a true green cleaning machine that is also good for the whole family.
7. Solid track record from Eureka. Let’s face it…houseware goods companies come and go all the time. When you buy your steamer, you want to be sure that you are buying from a company that “knows what they are doing”! Eureka has been a leader in home appliances and products and their Enviro Steamer line has been a huge success for a reason…it works!
8. No annoying trigger to hold down for steam. If you have spent any time studying steam mops, you know that some models require you to push or hold a button in order to get steam from the steamer. Who wants to do that? The Eureka Enviro Steamer does not have a trigger…but instead gives you CONSTANT STEAM to clean your floors effectively.
Here are some of the valid “CONS” of the Eureka Enviro:
1. Some people have found it leaves their floors too wet or smeary. As with any product, their are always “good”, “better”, and “best” environments to use the product in. With dozens of flooring types, some users have reported that the steamer is leaving streaks on their floors or too much moisture.
2. Even with a LONG cord, you may find yourself needing more. The Enviro Steamer already comes with a pretty generous, long cord. However, for some kitchens and hardwood floor living rooms, it still may not be enough…forcing you to add an extension cord to use the steamer.
3. May have trouble with textured surfaces. This isn’t specific to the Enviro model…but just be aware that steam cleaning works best on smooth surfaces (think hardwood floors and tile) instead of heavily textured surfaces (think textured tile).
4. May need to refill more frequently than desired. Of course, this all depends on the size of the floors in the rooms you are cleaning…but just keep in mind that there is a trade off to having a small and compact steamer…you’ll find yourself refilling it more often than larger models.
The Eureka Enviro Steamer is a popular steam mop because it works! It’s a super steamer that will provide years of hard cleaning service for you and your family.
