Ordered the powerfresh steam mop to replace a broken shark . I had bought a steam mop from Bissell almost 8 years ago and the pads needed to be replaced so I decided to try the shark steam mop with various pads as a matter of fact I bought 2 as family gifts and then upgraded to the vac/ steamer later . This was less than 4 years ago and all 4 sharks are now disposed of because they malfuntioned. Every Bissell product I own is still working great and is by far the best investment you can make. My powerfresh is a dream. Thankyou Bissell for producing durable products...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I first bought this steam mop about 3 years ago, it worked for about 1 year and then stopped, but I liked the way it cleaned so well, that I bought another. This model has worked fine for the past 2 years. I like cleaning with steam, not using chemicals and it cleans quickly. But, I struggle to get the container off the mop to fill with the distilled water. I have to pry it off with a butter knife or large spoon and even then it takes quite a while to loosen it. I hope they can improve this going forward.

The steam mop heats quickly, puts out lots of steam, has enough steam to do kitchen and patio, and picks up a lot of dirt. It is easy to use and we like it. However, the cleaning pads have been out of stock since we bought the mop. I am worried that I won't be able to replace the pads once they wear out. They need to be washed after each use and I don't know how long they will last. Otherwise, we have had no problems with the mop. None of the complaints others have listed. It just works great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This steam mop is WAY better than Shark steam mops. You dont have to refill as often, there are multiple degrees of steam power you can choose from, and it's far easier on my back because it doesnt require using so much elbow grease.

This is my first mop steam cleaner. Good features such as; smart set steam control panel, easy refill water tank with no spill feature, swivel maneuverability, easy pad remover, cord wrap, and assembling. Even though there is no power switch to cut off power supply to the unit the heating element does shut off if you touch the steam control panel back to steam level, the steamer will cool down until ready to use it again. To be on the safe side unplug the cord when not in use. The only feature that doesn't seem to be effective is the removable easy scrubber. It may do the job if the grouts are sealed. If not it's almost impossible to clean like new. To Bissell Consumer Care, please follow up on this. It would be nice to know how hot the water reaches its operating temperature. I know boiling point is 212 degrees but it is unlikely for a consumer product to be that hot. My guess would be 140 degrees. On the product box and manual instructions it doesn't state how hot the steamer gets. Its rarely published by the manufactures the operating temperature level. For the record I would like to know what is the maximum temperature of this unit when it gets hot. Some units operated at lower or higher temperatures then this unit. Over all, model 1940 is a great mop steam cleaner for household consumer use. As for longevity of this product that will be evaluated over time. I hope it will give me many years of good use. Two year limited warranty is pretty good. Most only offer one year. Good job Bissell!

I like the way it steams and you feel like it's actually clean. I have trouble with muscle strength and coordination, the water tank is hard to get a grip on and lift up. I wish the tank was bigger. Also having drop foot, I would have to bend over and manually set the scrub brush. Wish it was multipurpose. If the only thing you need it for is for your floors and you are an able person then this is right for you. If you have disabilities then I would recommend something else not this product. I'm going to have to return mine for the simple point because it's not handicap friendly

This is a great steam mop. The scent discs give off a nice fragrance. I have ordered extra pads, so I always have an extra set. I can clean all my floors fast with just the right amount of steam with the adjustable steam levels. No residue, clean floors, nice smell after, you really can't go wrong.

I love the steam mop. It does a great job at cleaning without any chemicals. I use it once every two weeks and after a couple of months, it is now leaking water. I wish this could be fixed because I cant use it anymore. Especially since I had already stocked up on extras available on this website. :( Good luck.

Hated cleaning my laminate floors but now it is fast and easy. I have four kids and used to have to scrub all the hard spots before using my swiffer that would get so dirty it would eventually just spread the dirt on the pad around the floor. My floors didn't get really clean unless I hand scrubbed them but now it is quick an easy. My 1 year old exploded a can of soda everywhere and in a few minutes the sticky mess was taken care of. It is easy to use and does a great job. I highly recommend it!

Very nice cleaner. Did an excellent job. I like the different levels of steam and I feel it is made more solid than the first one I had but time will tell. My first one had spued water all over my floor and had to throw it out. The only thing I do not care for is the scented disk called Spring.
