Most of you know what a clean freak I am. The day I bought my Dyson was a memorable and exciting day (yes, I'm lame). I've always been curious about the steam cleaners I see on infomercials. So I bought one and was able to test it out yesterday. My kitchen floors were thoroughly soiled after having five kids and three adults over for lunch. I vacuumed up the crumbs, then put the steam mop to work.
Pros:
1. It really does clean. The white cloth was filthy (and I mop once a week).
2. It only uses water - no cleaners or chemicals.
3. It's very small and easy to store, no need for a bucket.
4. The cloths can be thrown in the washer and re-used
5. It can also be used on carpet for stain removal.
6. No waiting for the floors to dry.
Cons:
1. It has a cord. Mopping with a cord will take some getting used to.
2. I kinda missed the "clean floor smell" my other cleaner left behind.
All in all, I really liked it. I should have taken a picture of the cloth after I mopped, but I'm ashamed at how dirty it was. I feel confident enough to throw away all my other mops (I have four total) and replace it with this one. My opinion is that it was money well-spent.

Thanks for the info, Lori. I'm sort of a clean-freak too and I appreciate a review from someone who is like-minded! This actually sounds like something I'd like too.
I'm actually really glad you posted this! We have parquet wood floors and I have been looking for alternative options for cleaning them. I think I may have to look into getting one of these.
Loo, is this wood floor friendly? Seems like something I would love. Have you ever walked in my house with white socks. Yeah, disgusting and matt or I also mop once a week or more - by hand.
Sarah, yes it is wood-floor safe. You're welcome to use mine for a test-run if you like.
If it was easy to use, I'm in. What is it called?
