Question 1

What kind of water should I use?

Accepted Answer

Distilled water is recommended to avoid mineral buildup and scale in the steam nozzle. Tap water can be used in a pinch but may reduce the product's lifespan.

Question 2

Does it work on laminate floors?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you should use the lowest steam setting and a dry, well-wrung microfiber pad. Avoid swimming steam on one area for more than a couple of seconds, as excessive moisture can warp unsealed laminate.

Question 3

Is the handheld steamer cordless?

Accepted Answer

No. The handheld steamer is connected to the mop's control unit and uses the same cord when detached via the hose. The whole unit is always electric, not battery-powered.

Question 4

Can the SteamGlove be washed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the SteamGlove is washable. After it cools, you can remove it from the nozzle and hand-wash it in warm soapy water. Let it dry completely before attaching it again.

Question 5

Will the steam melt the SteamGlove?

Accepted Answer

No, the SteamGlove is made from heat-resistant silicone designed to handle steam temperatures. However, it's best to avoid touching the glove directly to skin while it's hot.

Question 6

How long is the power cord?

Accepted Answer

The cord is about 20 feet long. In most rooms, you'll likely need to switch outlets between rooms, but it's on par with similar steam mops.

Question 7

Does it have adjustable steam levels?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it has a simple high/low steam switch on the mop handle. The handheld steamer uses the same levels, so you can dial it down for delicate fabrics when using the fabric head.
