Somehow ... I'm starting to get tempted...
And y'all are going to get blamed!


*laughs*

I'm telling you, I'm having the time of my life, CLEANING MY FLOORS.

It takes some arm muscle to use this handy thing. I don't mind it a bit. It gets into the grout and into the ceramic tile.

I really thought my floors were clean before. They gleamed, they shined. I use to use Swiffers, and Mr. Clean, and Pine Sol (diluted with hot water of course). I used EVERYTHIG from Lysol products to whatever was on sale.

They all had one thing in common. They ALL HAD CHEMICALS. I once said to myself. Wouldn't it be nice to clean without chemicals?

Last night they showed the informerical on tv again. I made sure to watch and see if I could pick up any tips.

The shark steam mop in the infomercial comes with a carpet glider. A square plastic thingee, that you just slip your mop into and you can steam clean any rug or carpet in your house. I only have one carpet, in my computer room.

I am not going to pay the $14.95 plus $5.95 shipping and handling to get this piece of plastic.

No, I"m GOING TO MAKE MY OWN.

Just call me McGuyer Melody.

Will let you know if I can do this.

I used the mop once again yesteray. You should have seen the bottom of the pad. Holy Cow. I think it picks up more every time you use the thing. I was steaming my house all over the place.

STEAM STEAM STEAM.

That's me, Melody the Steamer. lol

I'm enjoying mine, too! I cleaned my bathroom floor and holy cow!! I will NOT be posting a picture of what came up off of my floor!! And it looked clean before I started!

Please let us know how your carpet pad creation turns out. I might just place an order for one from you!! You could start your own little side business from this!

I like the fact that I'm cleaning without chemicals, too. I always worry that my cats will get into something they shouldn't and be harmed because of it.

Happy cleaning!!

Isn't it amazing what comes up off the floor??

I am a Shark Steam Mop advocate. That's for sure.

Oh, guess what I'm going to do with my Steam Mop next??

I'm stripping my bed. I'm putting the Steam Mop over my Temper Pedic Mattress Toppers and I'm going to Steam them clean.

I wonder if I can steam my walls???? lol

Oh, and this might sound stupid, but if my bathroom is ALL tile. Even the walls and ceilings, Can I use the mop upside down and do it on the ceiling??

I don't think I'd be using that mop upside down - might get burned by dripping hot water!!

You "might" if you were standing on
a ladder ...

But now I think 3+ million Psychologists
and Psychiatrists are now observing you
as a serious case of "Steam-A-Holic"
and you're an "excellent case study".



Just KIDDING!!!

lol.

Don't worry, I'm not steaming the ceiling. Might do the walls though.

Will let you know how they come out.

If this works on tile walls, I'm definitely buying one. Oh, who am I kidding? I'm buying it anyway! I would love to be able to use it on my tile walls and the shower tiles in the bathroom, though. How about glass shower doors? Wonder if it would work on those???

For the shower doors, I saw an infomercial for one of those hand held steamer thingees. They had a squeegee attachments, after they cleaned the mirror and the glass shower doors, they just squeegeed them dry.

I am dying to get the Monster Hand Held steamer. I put the link in an earlier post on this very thread.

You gotta see this thing. Oh my god, the steaming power that comes out of this hand held steamer, well I'm saving up to buy that one.

I used to have one of those cheap $26.00 hand held portable steamer things. Pure Garbage. Started to sputter and lost steam in over 5 minutes.

I do believe you get what you pay for.

I've been researching portable steamers and I have made my mind up.

I want the Monster 1200.

You say you can steam clean (put water on) a hardwood floor? I have a hardwood floor in my dining room.
