Bought a motorized mop attachment for my Samsung Jet vacuum.
I didn't do my research and didn't realize that it doesn't vacuum up the water. So the thing literally just spins some pads and nothing else. Was such a waste of money.
Does anything actually vacuum water? How would that even work?
Yes, we own such water vacuum. Those have a water filter instead of air. It's pretty effective t9 clean the air as well since everything is kept in the water. But using it is a pain in the ass. You need to fill it with fresh water, empty it after use and clean it. Otherwise it smells like a pond with dead fish after a heatwave...
Tineco makes vacuum mops. I have the ifloor 2. It actually does a great job, but you have to clean it and take the roller off after every use. I also always run a dust mop over the floor first. Cleaning it is a bit of a pain, but I guess you can't have everything.
I'm also convinced that most of the reviews of people who said theirs "broke after x amount of time" just never cleaned them. Mines simple and seems built pretty robust. Doesn't seem like something that would just break. Not until the battery craps out.
Yeah, there's a few mop vacs on the market. Shark, Bissell, etc, all make one.
