Steam Mops & Floor Cleaners - Frequently Asked Questions

What is a steam mop?

A steam mop is a floor cleaner that uses water from the tank to heat up steam and uses the cleaning pad to clean hard floors, picking up dirt and spills. It’s designed to freshen up surfaces like tiles and sealed floors.

It’s recommended to only use a steam mop on wooden floors if the timber is properly sealed and the flooring manufacturer allows steam cleaning. Unsealed or damaged timber can absorb moisture and may warp or swell, so if you’re unsure, it’s safest to avoid steam on wood.

Laminate floors can be tricky to clean with a steam mop because moisture can get into seams and edges. If your laminate is well sealed and the manufacturer says steam is suitable, you may be able to use a steam mop on a low setting while keeping the mop moving. If not, stick to the recommended cleaning method for your flooring.

Many vinyl floors can handle steam cleaning, but it depends on the type of vinyl and how it’s installed. If you use a steam mop on vinyl on a suitable setting, don’t let the steamer sit in one spot, and always follow the flooring manufacturer’s care instructions to be safe.

Discover The Difference A Steam Mop Makes

Are you looking to give your floors a deeper clean? A steam mop is an electric cleaning tool that uses pressurised, hot temperature steaming to clean dirt and grime on hard floors. Designed to be a cleaner alternative to cleaning floors, steam mop models have removable microfibre cloths on the bottom to pick up dirt, which are easily removable and can be placed in the washing machine when dirty. This makes steam mops a great pick for quick clean-ups in busy homes, especially on hard floors like tiles and sealed surfaces.

Types of Steam Mops

Not all steam mops are built and designed the same. Some are made for quick clean-ups around the house, while others are better for bigger weekly cleans. Here are a few steam mops styles to narrow down your search and find the right fit for your floors:

Portable Steam Mops

Often designed to be handheld, a bulky base with wheels, portable steam mops offer a deeper clean or strong spot cleaning with powerful suction. A great option for any staining on your floors, these portable steam mops can be easily moved throughout the home to tackle any deep stains or marks with ease.

Corded Steam Mops

A corded steam mop is a reliable choice when doing bigger weekly cleans. Connected to a power source, the corded steam mops are perfect for longer cleans when you don’t need to worry about battery life.

Cordless Upright Steam Mops The easiest grab and clean option on the market, cordless steam mops are ideal for quick cleans, fast manoeuvrability and homes with lots of furniture. Lightweight to move under and around your home, a cordless steam mop can clean every nook and cranny of your home in minutes.

Steam Vacuum Cleaner

A steam vacuum cleaner is a highly useful all-in-one cleaning option that vacuums while also steam cleaning. It’s a great versatile pick that offers the full cleaning solution for you home without the need to multipole bulky appliances. These are particularly great for furniture, to steam and vacuum in one go.

What To Consider When Choosing a Steam Mop

Shopping for a steam mop Australia-wide can become overwhelming. With many great qualities as a cleaning appliance, there are some key considerations to look out for:

Cordless vs Corded Steam Mops

This consideration is up to your personal preference and lifestyle. Cordless steam mops are easier to move around your home and are great for quick daily cleans. Corded floor steam cleaners are reliable for longer cleans around the house without needing to worry about recharging the batteries.

Heat-up Time

Heat-up time is a convenience consideration for many Aussie households. A steam mop that heats quickly is more likely to get used for the small jobs, knowing no time goes into waiting for it to heat up, mop up spills and footprints efficiently.

Water Tank Size

The bigger tank means fewer refills when cleaning, which is a big win if you’ve got a lot of tiles or an open-plan living space. Steam mops with smaller tanks can still be suitable for apartments or spot cleaning.

Weight and Manoeuvrability

A steam mop should feel easy to push and steer. Typically, most are quite lightweight. If you’ll be cleaning regularly, look for a lighter design, smooth swivel head and comfortable handle.
