Isn't there...

...some sort of motorized/electric version of the Swiffer Wet Jet/Clorox Ready Mop out there?? I swear I saw something advertised, but can't remember the name. I must have one immediately, if in fact, it even exists.

I do believe you are speaking the the Bissel Floor mate. I own one and LOVE IT! It is easy to fill and empty. It does the scrubbing and sucks up the dirty water so that you aren't pushing it all about as you would with any other kind of mop or such. It is the 'perfect' floor cleaner... I'm really surprised you don't have one already...

This is exactly what I need. Where'd you find it?

Target, baby... I'm telling ya... you will looooove it... wait until you see how dirty the return water is and you realize how all you have ever been doing was pushing it around...

Yeah, we definitely need that. Remember how much it was? Can I add any sort of solution so that I can do hardwood, and then the linoleum? We have that big 'sea' of linoleum downstairs and it's so hard to clean. It also takes forever b/c we have to change the pad on the Ready-Mop several times before finishing.

It should be right around $100... I don't recall for sure what the going price is right now. It should come with a sample bottle of solution for linoleum and a sample bottle of solution for hardwood floors. You should be able to find full size bottles of each product next to the Floormate itself. It's a concentrate so the bottle goes pretty far. I really don't think you will regret the purchase at all.

Don't want one for my floors. Need a good one that scrubs carpet. Any recommendations? Next step is hardwood floors. I'm sick to death of carpets.

Vince, you and I seem to be living parallel lives. I've got the floorman coming tomorrow to finalize my wood flooring dream.

Little Green Machine.

The litte green machine is great for small pet messes but who wants to crawl around on their hands and knees cleaning a floor? Maybe Vince wants something bigger.

Now we know why her back is f'd up...

Do you mean Bissel or Hoover?

 

[FromTexas]

Do you mean Bissel or Hoover?

Because this is the Bissel version...

 

[jazz lady]

I think she meant Hoover Floormate. It's what I have for my hardwood floors and I love it. Nothing cleans them better.

We have one. Be sure to buy more solution/soap 'cause you'll want to do the house, the car, the pets, the mailman, . . .

I'm looking at doing the kitchen, dinning room, hall and living room, all hardwood. No more carpets. I've weighed the difference between real hardwood and the laminate, and the laminate comes out ahead. It takes more of a beating and keeps it's shine better than the real thing. If I get the cash ahead, I'm going to do it this summer.
