Bought a shark one but can’t be used on wooden flooring so purchased this instead and returning the other one. Cleans floor lovely and so quiet I wouldn’t say it scrubs the floor mind . My kitchen tiles always look dirty unless u use bleach and no different with this . Our kitchen is heavily used with my husband and boys back and fore out the back and allotment never take their flipping boots off. But does fetch it up nicely.

This is a good cleaner that works well – it is not a heavy duty cleaner but will cope with most domestic hard floors. It is easy and quick to use daily – its 4 times as fast as a mop – and over a period of time it improves a floor’s appearance, simply by more frequent, faster repetitive cleaning . It can also polish floors using any number of floor polishes.

I would recommend buying a spare set of Pads as every time I have used it, the pads have turned from bright white to a very dirty brown – into the washing machine they go.

The machine is relatively cheap, but it does have running costs of replacement pads every so often, cleaning fluids (the bissell fluid is 13/l) and the cost of frequent washing of pads.

There is one thing to be very careful of. When changing the pads, check the little screws in the centre of the black pad holders that the scrub pads attach to. These can work loose and stick out – screw them back in fast if you see this happening. The reason for this is that if you use the machine with a screw sticking out to any extent, it will damage the threading in the part the screw fits into – which means it will not hold the screw. It will probably run fine without the screw for a while , but it will wear faster and break sooner, and you risk the pad holder falling off through gravity. This could be fixed with a small amount of PTFE tape or similar on the screw when the product is made to help its grip the threading and reduce the loosening effects of vibration whilst in use. From my experience, if you feel wobbling whilst the cleaner is in use, it is likely that a screw has come loose.

All in all it works well if you deal with the above.

I live in a 3 bedroom penthouse. With one dog and 2 cats. I wish I had bought this product years ago.
1. It’s light
2. It’s easy to use
3. It’s super easy to empty what it picks up.
If I could give it 10 stars I would.

Loved using this machine and has brought up my floors great. Its easy to use and to put together. Only received the scrub pads so carnt comment on the soft pads. I did receive the floor cleaning stuff. Great value for money and highly recommend this machine.

We have hard floors throughout and since buying this the mop has been resigned to the shed. easy to use, a good length of cable and interchangeable easy to wash pads make cleaning a breeze.

The machine has a satisfying hum with it too whilst in use

The BISSELL SpinWave | Hard Floor Cleaning System | Electric Spray Mop is worth its weight in gold. I previously used an ordinary floor mop and from time to time floor wipes after mopping to try and soak up any excess dirt. Well, my new floor cleaner has made both these things redundant and not only will I save money on floor wipes (which can be expensive not being long lasting), but I can now also save on storage space because I don’t have to store a mop bucket, mop and floor wipe cleaner in my small utility room.

I have riveted tiles, and using a floor mop just moves the dirt around and makes it stick to the grooves. Not only that, but the dirt was being pooled inbetween the tiles in the grout. Well, that’s not happening with my new electric floor cleaner. Whilst it isn’t aimed at cleaning deep into grout, it is lifting the dirt out of the grout slowly as well.

My floor has never looked so clean (apart from when it was first laid two years ago). I am honestly delighted with the results on my kitchen floor. I will try and take a before and after photo of my utility room to show the difference. No point in doing this with my kitchen floor because it looks lovely and clean again.

My only concern with this mop is that it may not last long – the cleaner isn’t a commercial one and may not be long lasting, but I guess time will have to tell. At the moment, I’m delighted and would highly recommend this item to anyone who doesn’t have the time (or desire) to scrub riveted floor tiles.

I replaced my steam mop with this and found it cleans and buffs much better all without the effort of using a steam mop.

it works like a buffing machine so you need to just guide it and let it do its thing

I’m using it on laminate flooring like a buffer so no need to get the pads soaking wet

as for cleaning up spills l wouldn’t advise it as does operate like a buffer and it will just spread the spill around

This product bought to clean my downstairs flooring this is the 2nd one purchased , it cleans ok but when you clean on your hands and knees you get much more dirt up, it does what is says but it’s not brilliant, and I clean every day. Screws on spinners always coming loose, handle very squeaky.

I have finally found an excellent floor cleaning machine. I have spinal problems so using this machine is effortless. 5 Star.

I hate cleaning but this is fun. Really easy to fill. Uses very little water/detergent. It does make the floor quite dull- I haven’t found the right solution for it but it does clean well. I bought extra pad as the ones supplied were the rougher ones but the slate and porcelain tiles are better with the smooth pads.

Had read all the reviews and decided to chance it as have mobility problems and struggled to scrub my floors . Nice quiet model easy to fill and use, was pleasantly surprised . Only drawback is the price of the solution. The bottle that accompanied the machine doesn’t last long

Very happy with this purchase, it is easy and light to use. Okay usually speed around the floor with a mop but this is a more relaxed pace, as good a job without breaking a sweat.

Don’t normally write these reviews but this machine is the best I’ve ever had we have large porcelain tiles which are cream in colour and are really hard to keep shiny. My normal method was hands and knees with window spray and kitchen roll that was the best way to do it but dam was it hard work. I was sweating by the time I’d finished it’s quite a large floor. Use this machine don’t use or buy the liquid that comes with it. Buy some cheap window cleaner and put that in the holder instead. Don’t go crazy with the spray when cleaning. Little is better don’t get the buffers to damp. Trust me you’ll love this machine

Very good product ideal for cleaning and buffing hard floors

I have pale, wood-effect porcelain tiles with a ‘grain’ (see the first picture). We’ve had them for just under two years and I’ve noticed that there is grime in the grooves that has built up after using a dip-it-in-a-bucket-of-water mop during this time. Scrubbing on hands-and-knees with an old-fashioned bristle brush and floor cleaner didn’t remove it. Using an extremely stiff plastic scrub pad and The Pink Stuff did, but — my god — who wants to do that for hours on end once a year?

About an hour of internet comparison sites for electric mops brought me to the Bissell SpinWave, which was at the top of all of the lists. “Excellent!” I thought. Then an Amazon review stated that this mop was fantastic at cleaning the dirt out of the grooves of tiles and her children’s socks remained clean. “Stupendous!” I thought. “This mop is for me.” And I bought it.

And this mop is for me… I know longer LOATHE mopping — oh my god, I hated mopping — and it picks up the surface dirt bea-u-tifully! (See the video and before and after pictures.) It’s just as quick as my traditional mop, but it glides easily across the floor, it uses less water and therefore less chemical floor cleaner, and the floors dry very, very quickly.

But it does not get the 1 1/2 years of grime out of the grooves of my porcelain tiles and I still had to get down on my hands and knees and use a stiff-bristle brush drill attachment and The Pink Stuff.

What Bissell needs to make is this exact machine, but with stiff-bristle attachments. My great, great aunt had one in the 70s, which we inherited in the 80s and it was fab. But do you think that I could find a modern version on the internet that didn’t cost the world? No. No one sells them. Which is a shame.

So, this is a five star machine if you don’t want it to clear built up grime out of your pale tile’s grooves, but I’ve given it four stars because I do want it to clear grime out of my pale tile’s grooves…and it doesn’t.

P.S. The ‘after’ picture of the pads is after cleaning 14.5sqm of dog-paw dirty floor.
P.P.S. I change the pads after each room because I have big rooms and dirty floors, so, if you’re going to do that, too, it’s worth buying more pads right away.

I would highly recommend this I think its brilliant it cleans floors with ease just hold handle and start I wouldn’t be with out i

Purchased to clean and polish a very smooth shiny tiled floor. Until now we have been using a steam mop and then buffing to a shine which is hard work and time consuming. This machine does both jobs as there is a tank for solution on the front which after a short press on a button releases a squirt of liquid. With the scrubbing pads on, removes the bulk of the dirt. Follow up with the soft pads to a shine. The machine is very quiet and not too heavy.
Note; There is a sample bottle of solution tucked away at the bottom of the box. We had to contact Amazon as all four pads were the scrubbing type ie no soft pads as per the description.
Totally delighted with the finish and the service from Amazon.

I have hard floors and a dog that loves go in an out! I literally got it from the post 30 minutes ago could not wait to test it and I just love it!! Easy to used and fast and no paw or show marks!!!! Highly recommend it!

I’m enjoying using this, it is easy to use and setup

Cleaned a tiled floor quite well – muddy ground in bits took a bit longer but so much better than doing it by hand. Fun to use too as others have said

This is a brilliant machine cleans my wooden floors perfectly

Great product. Gives a great result and it’s done in no time. Would recommend to anyone who hates a mop and bucket like me.

Excellent can’t believe floor cleaning is now a breeze rather than a chore

Really easy to clean takes next to no effort at all, pads clean nicely in the washing machine

Not for deep cleaning where you need scrubber and elbow grease, but works great for lighter maintenance cleaning, fresh stains and good for applying a wax-oil and maintainer for an Osmo sealed wood floor (with soft pads). you can see the circular patterns though until rinsing. Has improved with the keepow extra scrubby orange pad but still not ideal for deep cleaning. You can’t apply enough pressure to really scrub (overloading motor) and not enough friction for heavy staining or grout cleaning. Improves with more cleaning fluid, but the beep is annoying. Ultimately though it’s not a quick process – first sweep and hoover, then cleaning fluid, then rinse is not quick even for a small area. What it does do is make it very easy for regular light cleans and spills. For scrubbing I still need a scrubber and vileda ultra max spray mop for elbow grease.

This is a great piece of kit. We purchased it based on the reviews seen here as we have the Porcelanosa plank tiling with the wood grain effect which seemingly never gets clean. This thing does an amazing job of removing every piece of dirt from within the tiny crevices. The only criticism… and it’s not even a criticism at that, is that the ‘scrubby’ pads aren’t scrubby at all. We purchased the additional aftermarket Orange and white pads which are much more suited to deep cleaning. Going over with the white pads afterwards will leave your floors spotless.
