SharkHydroVac MessMaster Wet Dry Corded Vacuum Cleaner, 3-in-1 Multi-Surface Vacuum Mop & Self-Cleaning System, Lightweight, Powerful Suction, for Hard Floors & Area Rugs, Navy, WD161

My house has ALL wood, bamboo and tile floors. I've said over the years that I wanted a maid to come in and just do the floors. A pregnancy injury left me in pain most of the time and floors are really hard for me. I started with a robot vacuume that I love love love. Next I wanted an electric mop. After reading all the reviews, the corded plug in Shark Hydrovac is what I bought. I am reading poor reviews here under this product, but they continually mention the weak battery. My review is for the corded plug in vacuume not a cordless model. My floors have never been cleaner. I used the vacuume over the course of two days and about 10 hours for an initial clean. The bamboo floor is only six years old and sealed. That floor was so easy to clean, although I still cleaned it three times over since it hasn't been cleaned in over six months. The kitchen tile was super easy too, although it doesn't reach the grout, my daughter is young and took on the challenge to clean the grout with a nifty grout brush I found. The hard part to clean is the 30 year old wood floors with areas where the seal is worn off. We bought the house from someone who's dogs had scratched the floors and wore off the finish in high traffic areas. This was the hard part to clean the first time. I did the same as with the bamboo and cleaned it the times over. After it was done, I realized there were areas of built up dirt on the unsealed areas I had not been getting clean. I decided to go back and clean this area by hand with a scrub brush to get it where I wanted. After that the floors have been a snap to keep clean. I've put in about 20 hours with the vacuume so far and have had zero problems. Some reviews say you can't vacuume and mop together. I didn't even try that. I vacuume with the robot first, then mop. I don't want to risk scratching the floor with a gritty mop. It is super easy to clean. The clean tank chines right out with the push of a button. The dirty tank is the same way. I dump it in the sink, rinse it and either use it again or put it on a towel to drain and dry. There is a sponge on the filter that I rinse and squeeze and put on the towel to dry. The beater bar comes out easily. I rinse under the faucet in the kitchen sink and squeeze by grabbing the bar and turning it around with the other hand. Again, I either put it back on the mop to keep cleaning or leave it on its end to dry on the towel. The vacuume without the beater bar and without the dirty tank, has a very short tube between the two that cleans easily with a bottle brush that is not included, but I already own it. All these parts are removable and replaceable with one hand. I find it easy to use, easy to empty the dirty tank and easy to refill the clean tank. The mop has a self clean feature that works pretty well, but I found that it is easy enough to clean it the way I described above and decided that is rather care for it myself and allow the parts to all dry completely. I've had zero issues with mold or a moldy smell. My floors are cleaner than they have been in years and are easy to maintain after the initial clean I have them. Note, I have a corgi dog that sheds all year. The robot vacuume and the Shark mop have changed my life. I don't leave the house covered in fur anymore. Once a week I vacuume and mop, or one other day in between if we are all off work for holidays and tracking more dust and dirt. Everyone in the house is impressed with his easily the floor is kept in a very clean and neat state. Along with the robot vacuume, this mop is the best investment I've made in householt cleaning tools,ever.

Wow… I’m impressed.My wife added this product to the cart, and I saw her using it today for the first time. The first thing that hit me—how quiet it is. I’ve never heard a machine run that silently.The second thing—it’s incredibly easy to clean after use.Then she hit me with the third thing: “We can get rid of the vacuum and the separate carpet and hard floor cleaner. This one does it all.”Honestly, I can already say—it’s the best investment we’ve made in a while.The big question now is: how long will it last?Stick around… I’ll post a part 2 in a few months with an update.

For the last 8 yrs I have been looking for a wet vac.. I tried the Bissell Crosswave and returned it the next day. I hated that after each use, the parts needed to be cleaned and air dried, and the solution tank was too small. I own a Hoover Floormate, which I really like, but I have to vacuum/sweep the floors before each use. The parts are easier to clean than the Crosswave, and it has a dry option. The only negative is that it takes a long time to clean my kitchen tile floors, and my hardwood floors. I came across this Shark, and I LOVE Shark/Ninja products, my Shark Navigator is 12yrs old and works great! Anyway, I figured I'd try this out and holy cow! I just cleaned my kitchen, dining room, hallways, and kids bedroom floors in less than 30mins. I didn't need to sweep or vacuum the floors forts, this does it all! Its lightweight, and just glides. Floors dried quickly, and it really does pick everything up! The self clean feature is great, and just like the Floormate, its easy to clean the tanks and brush after use. I only filled the solution tank once and still have some leftover! I wish I had this gem when my kids were toddlers and made a mess after every meal, but at 10 and 5 they're still a little messy and always a ton of crumbs on the floor so its really exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommend. I also use the plug in not the battery operated.

I will start by saying this vacuum has been a game changer and a time saver for me over all. I was using a regular old broom and mop before and it would take me over an hour to do my wood floors plus area rugs. Now it takes half the time and energy. The only complaint I have is that it doesn't get the edges near walls and such, there is about an inch of area that it doesn't clean, so if you are a stickler you would have to go around with a mop or clothe and clean the edges. It doesn't bother me enough to give the vacc a bad review though. The other thing is that the self cleaning mode doesn't really do a whole lot, you still have to take it all apart and clean the pieces every time. Again I don't mind because I'd rather get rid of all that grime immediately anyway and not leave it and forget it. Over all a great deal and works well, though I hope the company will continue improving the details.
