Girls report on mops, don't buy. No pair, the same purity. And does not slide on the floor like in an advertisement. I handed everything back to the shops. My kercher works for me, this is a thing. Everything is washed. is cleaned and the steam is hot.

Soooo, saika, you can get more details ... What kind of mops have you tried? How much power was and pressure in bars? I only reviews dug I read positive ones on the internet, about the characteristics of the körcher suitable, but is it really so bad? Well ...now I have even grown up
saika
The first one was bought by Black & Decker FSM1600-QS. She poured water, turned it on, the indicator came on, and began to wash the floor. I do not get it. The mop head (microfiber) is dry and the sole is slightly warm and does not slip on the linelium, as in advertising. I collected everything and handed it back to the store. B / W 2 weeks bought Kromax ENDEVER Odyssey Q-605. Slightly better, but not comparable to Körcher. Well, there is no such powerful jet as a steam cleaner. I washed the floor with a Steam Cleaner, slightly damp, clean. And with a steam mop, the floor is dry, but it’s like the mop heads are also dry. There is no such cleanliness as after a steam cleaner. It's just that I have two holopopiks (Canadian) living in my summer kitchen, my floor h / w day and without chemistry. In general, I did not work out with these mops. I looked at Bissell, but the toad crushes, it's expensive. Although if you take a model with a bunch of attachments, which is advertised as a steam cleaner, it will suddenly justify itself: a mop + a steam cleaner. Then the price is adequate.

saika, and what is your Körcher? I have 1020, there the power is 1500, but in Black & Decker I read 1600, even more. But if only Karcher has more pressure in bars.
Maybe then it's all about pressure? It is not clear .. in theory, there should not be a dry rag at all. Maybe marriage is simple? I also looked at the Monster mop, there is a pressure of 3.5 bar,
true power 1200. But now I don't even know what to believe .. Is it really that bad? I wouldn't want to buy anything at all.
saika
I have a Körcher 1030, a power of 1500 W, a pressure of 3.2 bar. Tanya, believe me, the mops are not worth their money, compared to the steam cleaner. Here is a very good Gorene steam cleaner, but its pistol handle gets very hot, although it is much more powerful than Körcher. And I was disappointed in the mops. I wanted so, I chose 3-4 months, compared and bummer. What is shown in advertising and in reality are completely different things. And there are few good reviews for Monster. It is better not to rush until, you see, something will be released more powerful and better.

I just do not chase the advertised, I trust real reviews more. Thanks to our bakers, I bought a mystery vacuum cleaner and do not regret it. And the Korean steam mop is also very much praised, but the price Maybe you are right, Sayushka, it's worth waiting a month or two, maybe they'll release something worthwhile.
I just really wanted to be with such a device by the new year

I would not want in the age of technology as before in the old fashioned way with a bucket and a brush .. We need to make it fast and clean, and what is not unimportant - the cleaning equipment looks beautiful, so that it pleases the soul, so to speak, and in front of the guests it was not a shame to show

What about this one?
"Steam mop "Steam Master 6in1", with plug for socket
The Steam Master 6in1 steam mop is a new cleaning method that is more efficient and much more hygienic than conventional methods. For work "Steam Master 6in1" uses only steam, which is produced from pure water, without requiring additional detergents and liquids. When in contact with flooring surfaces, it gets rid of dirt and dust in seconds. Since the device uses active steam power without the use of detergents and soap, it does not have a negative impact on the environment.
Regular steam cleaning can also help get rid of mites, certain types of bacteria, mildew and mildew.
All kinds of attachments turn the steam mop into a device for cleaning windows, steaming products from certain types of fabric and eliminating dust from hard-to-reach surfaces.
Equipment:
- main unit,
- triangular floor brush,
- button for blocking the water tank,
- work indicator light,
- steam supply control,
- power switch,
- a pen,
- nozzle for fleece,
- nozzle for cotton,
- brush for cleaning textiles,
- scraper,
- round nylon brush,
- round metal brush,
- floor brush wheel,
- steam nozzle,
- scraper attachment and brush for cleaning textiles,
- cleaning rod for cleaning,
- measuring cup,
- power cable,
- brush for attachments,
- extension hose for handheld steam generator,
- dust brush,
- glass cleaning cloth,
- a tool for cleaning glass,
- nozzle.

The steam nozzle can be used to remove light dirt in narrow and hard to reach places (e.g. behind the toilet, under the sink, in the shower; ceramic tiles, door frames, window frames, etc.) The scraper is ideal for cleaning window panes, mirrors, glass doors, etc. The triangular brush can be used to disinfect carpets while installing the brush wheel. Can also be used to clean dirty carpets. The use of a brush for cleaning textiles allows you to quickly and easily remove minor dirt from textiles (pillows, bedspreads, textiles), as well as dust and lint from furniture. The fleece nozzle is designed for hard floors (vinyl and linoleum, tiles, laminate), except for marble and wood floors. Use the cotton pad to clean carpets, rugs (not made of real silk).

It is not recommended to use the mop on marble floors, leaking wood floors, and cork floors, as the heat and steam can remove wax from the surface. Not allowed to be used on carpets, rugs, curtains, carpets and textiles made of real silk. "

I have been looking for two years no one has bought a steam mop anymore .. And I look closely again. Not so long ago, a new model Kitfort KT 1002 was released. I have already re-read the reviews of real people, talked on the forums. Probably I will take it.
Admin
There is always a huge amount of positive reviews on Kitfort, but nobody told the truth.
Few devices have so many reviews, all the more positive, and this is always alarming
rasti
I have a Kitfort KT 1001, and I have no complaints about this mop.
But I only use it as a mop, well, I also took it as a mop.
The floor in the kitchen is tiled, cleaning is just a song, quickly, without tension, clean.
In the room, oak parquet, killed by the bay, with boiling water (we put water meters on old rotten pipes during a planned water outage, then they gave hot water, and here's a present), also mine, it washes well.
Satisfies the fastening of rags on the Kit, on my, now not very even floor, the rag does not break off.
True, I took this mop from a discounted price, for 2000 re, according to the principle that if there was something to break there, then it was already repaired.
Yes, when you use Kitey as a mop, steam flows continuously, you don't need to press the button, and this is very convenient.
* Tanya *
That is why I want the second model 1002, as a mop I need it without attachments, and I also want a beautiful color, not just black (I'm a girl). I also want the water tank to be removable, it is more convenient to pour. I even found where spare rags can be bought. I'll think about it for another week or two and probably I'll buy it all the same. At the same time, I will unsubscribe
rasti
Well, 1002 Kitya appeared only now, when I took my 1001, she was not there. But it doesn't bother me that 1001 counts as three or four in one, I just don't use the rest of the functions.
And Kitty's rags are strong, my mop has been living somewhere since September, I wipe the floor with it every day, after washing, I rinse the rag, or wash it, and on the battery, during this time the rag has not deteriorated yet, but there are two more in stock.
And you can buy them on the official website of Kitfort, they are sent by mail to other cities.
* Tanya *
Well, I see the rags in the models are different. And the fact that you can buy both spare parts and rags on Kitfort's website is a plus.

On my rag is thickened and weave on it, well, what could be scrubbed.

Oh, now I looked at the big photos. 1002 fastening a cloth with Velcro. Not mine, not for my gender. Velcro is only for perfectly flat surfaces. And rubbing with such a cloth will not work, just wipe it.

I don't know, maybe I got married, but I couldn't wash the floors for her. I have linoleum, the rag just stuck to it, waited until it got wet, a little better, but it seemed to stretch out from the water, began to gather in folds and jump off the mounts. tormented, cried, washed it, dried it and handed it back.
In the 1001 model, the rag is put on in a different way, not with Velcro.
I want a mop, but now I'm afraid. I was already going to take the Karcher steam cleaner, but I just don't want to wash the floor, but for the rest I have enough of a jug. Sometimes I look through the ads on Avito, you can try to negotiate.

Well, another disappointment .. And on the Citylink forum I communicated with real people, their rag did not come off, on the contrary, I like that it is easier to take off and put on. I have only laminate in one room, the rest are all linoleum. Now back in thought: girl_in_dreams: But I want a mop, I can't uuuu! Moreover, she only persuaded her husband, since she communicated with a man at the same forum, he generally washed the floor himself with this mop and he really likes it.
rasti
A velcro cloth comes off.
I can advise or modify the rag (do with puffs), or take 1001 and use it only as a mop. You will get pleasure from cleaning.
Yes. I fill my Kitya with water just over the sink from the tap, I don't use any watering cans (this is about whether a removable water container is needed).
Boils in 1 minute.

Right now I'm examining building 1002. There is a steam button, since 1002 has only one function, a mop, it turns out that you will have to constantly press the button to supply steam. It's very dreary. I do not advise.
rasti
And further. All the same, Kitfort is from China. Marriage is normal there.
I prefer to take such firms from stores where there is a hundred percent return. In Citylink, it seems, only two weeks, and then she herself in service and paper from them.
In short, I prefer to take such things in Ozone, it is more convenient to call a courier at home and return the goods within a year.
* Tanya *
I also always buy everything on Ozone. It was me on Citylink who communicated with a man who had both the first model and the second. The first one broke twice, he generally passed it. And he praises the second. But now I listened to the opposite and thought about it .. If you need to constantly press the button, then this is not good. And with a rag you can come up with something of course. And the weight is interesting, is it not very hard? And one more thing, the first model has only one steam outlet, and the second has several along the entire sole. How this can affect the degree of cleaning the floor is interesting ...
* Tanya *
And yet, Lyudmil, can you size the rags? Not necessarily today. I just want to take a look at Aliexpress for a cheaper price, I saw something like that there. Again I stay awake all night. Oh-ho-hoh .. It's just that the birthday is coming soon, and on Ozone, in this regard, they give a discount of 500 rubles, so I would like to decide already.
rasti
I just learned from you that there is only one hole on my mop.
I can assure you 1001 and with one hole it washes perfectly.
And judging by the large steam cleaners, then with a mop head, where the holes are along the entire sole, the force of the blow of steam becomes less.
And believe me, pushing the button so that the steam leaves is such a gimor.
About the weight. The 1001 has a declared weight of 2.700, while the 1002 has no weight.
rasti
How about the size of the rags? Sole size?
And then the rags with a grip, with sides.
rasti
Length 25, width 15, sides 4.5 cm.
* Tanya *
No, no, if you press the button, then generally the second disappears. But she is so beautiful, I already thought to tie a rag on her to contrive. We, women, want to be beautiful too, to please the eye. Here at least break now, buy at least two at once
* Tanya *
Yes, these sizes are fine, thanks a lot!
* Tanya *
Soooo, everything, it's time to sleep .. Tomorrow I will think to guess. Maybe I'll think about it at night, or maybe I'll dream that
rasti
Throw a coin.

P.S. you definitely have nothing to do with two.
rasti
* Tanya *, Now I looked at the official website of the Kifort video with a steam mop (the forum rules do not skip the link, just type in the Google search - Kitfort's official website, and there you see steam mops).
It looks like there is a continuous supply of steam. Only a rag with Velcro remains of the bad. And in the same place on the Kitfort website there is a weight of 1002, 2.200 kg.
If you have Ozone pick-up points, not only postal delivery, then I would risk taking 1002 first, and if it doesn't work, then return it as something wrong, wait for the money to be returned to your personal account and take 1001.
Just keep in mind that on the official website Kitfort the Steam mop 1001 has already risen in price, which means that when they arrive at Ozone, these mops will also rise in price, now they are selling the old supply.
* Tanya *
I don’t like all these returns, registrations .. I already wanted to try, like you take the discounted first model, but is no longer available, apparently someone also liked this idea. While I am still torn between the two, I would not like to have problems with the rag. I am waiting for an answer from one forum, where they bought the second model, asked about linoleum, if a rag was falling on it. There, a husband and wife eagerly scrub the floors, they are happy with everything. Kitfort was on the website too.Eh, where have I not been? How does it light up, so I won't sleep at night, all sites are out of place
rasti
I also do not like returns, but with the current purchases on the Internet, you cannot do without buying / trying, you cannot do without returns. So now I look at it easier. In general, I started communicating with steam mops with Travola XY-201 Steam mop 2 in 1. It did not suit me as a sweeper, because after the flooding there are cracks in my parquet, and from there it is good to clean only with a vacuum cleaner. Like a steam mop, Travola perfectly washed the tiles in the kitchen, and on an uneven parquet, a rag with Velcro began to fly off immediately.
So I returned Travola, but at the same time I was left with the thought that I needed a steam mop, but with a different rag attachment.
With 1001 discounted, I think I was very lucky, after I bought it with a markdown, my friend asked me to take the markdown again, but I never saw it again.

If you don't want to experiment, then take 1001, all the same it has already been tested, but so far it has not risen in price on Ozone as on the Kitfort website.
* Tanya *
Well, again this eternal problem is a rag ... Now, not only is it a model to choose, but the method of attaching the rag is also important. I also have a floor nozzle on the Körcher steam cleaner, it is convenient to put on any rag on it, it snaps into place on the sides. We would have made a model of a steam mop for any size of rags, so that we could adjust it ourselves. It is necessary to write to Kitfort so that in the next model it will be thought out
* Tanya *
Only two days ago I saw her with a markdown, it was your model. And as soon as you gave me an idea, you have already bought it .. So, that's it, quietly, we are silent ... Otherwise, everything will be bought up there, while I think
rasti
It seems to me that Kitfort does not make models, it seems to me that he just collects all over China, but sells under his own brand. Well like Ozone Travola.
On large steam cleaners, attaching a rag to the mop head and on clothespins, on the same Kitfort, but on steam movers, everyone is creative, it would be bright to touch less with your hands.
And the rags that go to 1001 will last for a very long time before starting to take care of the change.
Yesterday, when I did the measurements, I looked at what kind of inserts on the rag were there, they looked like the inserts on Weled's rags. They wash very well.
* Tanya *
Oh, by the way, I also have Weleda and I really like these rags, I even have one in stock. But then a steam room caught fire.If the rags here are of the same quality as those, then this is very very good

I have a Philips Philips FC7028 / 01. I don't remember exactly the model. I bought it more than a year ago. I rarely use it. I bought it to try if I need such a device. Now I understand that I don't need it. It is more usual to wash with hands. The steam mop was no faster. I wanted to buy a used one, but at that time nothing similar was being sold. I will probably sell mine, but first I will give her another chance.
* Tanya *
Katyusha, maybe not faster than a regular one, but cleaner and more effective, I think. But this is just my opinion, because after Körcher I like the cleanliness of the floors, and the microbes are dying from the steam (I hope)
rasti
I don't know about microbes, but for sure.
I have a habit of walking barefoot at home, so if you run in the morning with a steam mop, the soles will not get dirty, and I have dogs that walk.
Cleaning with a steam mop is a little slower than just running with a mop.
