Product Description

The only steam mop with front steam jets - cleans right up to the edge of the room, ideal for vertical corners, stair risers and kitchen baseboards. Also useful for pre- treating stains. The compact structure and curved reclining handle is very handy and efficient. Monster floor can easily reach into difficult corners and under furniture. The carpet sledge simply clips on to the base of the monster floor. The Microfibre carpet pad is trapped inside the sledge. With the sledge fitted the monster floor just glides over rugs and carpets with very little effort. The carpet pad will pick up surface grime, and the steam loosens the grit, animal hairs and ground-in dirt which can then be vacuumed away as the super hot dry steam leaves the carpet dry in a few minutes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it claims., July 8, 2010

This review is from: Euroflex Monster Floor Steam Cleaner EZ1 Red (Kitchen)

I have tile in my kitchen, dining room, living room, hallway, bathrooms, and entryway.

Pros:
- Takes 15 minutes to read the instructions and put together.
- Easy to fill - it comes with a cup with a convenient spout, though, I used my own small funnel to make pouring even easier.
- Heats up really fast 5 minutes or less with room temp water.
- Instructions say the inside of the boiler doesn't need to be cleaned if you use distilled water.
- No chemicals are needed.
- Cord is long enough to clean a large area from one plug.
- My floor didn't make my socks dirty after I was done mopping, so it was really clean!
- Really fluffed up my shag rugs.
- Less messy than normal mopping because floors dry faster and there is no splashing or dirty water.

Cons:
- The handle is plastic - the trigger for the front steam works well, but the handle seems kind of flimsy, I expect it to break before the rest of the appliance does.
- It doesn't fit under counter edges very well because the boiler is on top of the mop head. The position of the boiler helps make the steam as hot as possible, and it is very hot. The front steam jets can be used to steam under the counters and then wipe up or vacuum later.
- Might not be able to deeply clean carpets - My rugs do not look clean really, just fluffy, after using a full tank of steam on them. Maybe it will take a few cleanings for them to improve. (To clean carpets you have to first steam them and then vacuum.)

Things to keep in mind:
- This is just a mop, you have to vacuum first to maximize cleaning.
- No "clean floor" smell because you're not supposed to use chemicals with it. It's worth it though!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for pet hair on carpets, December 16, 2010

I just received this steam mop and the construction of the base seems very solid. The handle on the other hand is very flimsy and I tried to be very careful with it.

I followed the instructions on installing the handle but somehow the end got damaged and the front steam jets weren't able to be triggered as a result. I called customer service and they informed me they will be sending a new handle.

I first tested it out on the carpeted areas. First I vacuumed the carpet and then I went over it with the EZ1 with carpet glide and microfiber cloth combo.

One tank full was more than enough to go over about 400 sq ft of carpet (minus furniture so maybe 200sq ft?) thoroughly with.

What amazed me was that even after just having vacuumed the microfiber cloth was full of cat hair. This took me by surprise. After vacuuming again when done with the steamer I hopefully picked up even more pet hair.

The steam also helped fluff up the carpet under chairs and other objects.

Used it on ceramic and vinyl tile and it did a good job there as well. Doesn't get into the grout though.

The handle though is just plain horrible. If you've ever seen one of those really cheap camera tripods that come in a kit and feel like you'll break it if you look at it wrong think of that type of quality.

If they just made the handle a little stronger this would be a 5 star product. I bought it because of the claims that it has the highest temperature among all these low cost steam mops.

I'm just hoping the new handle allows me to use the front steam jets. Will update if it does not or if I have any other problems with customer service.

We tried it on the floors & it works great, we have not tried it on carpet yet. To clean about 5 rooms, it needs to be filled around 3 times. So if the green light seems to turn off a lot, we found out it was because it needed more water. One thing though is it does not reach some difficult corners because of the desgin on the front. The pads are easy to clean too.
