I bought this 1-2 years ago and have only used it 3 times now. I keep thinking I'll figure out how to make it work better, and so far, no luck.
I let it warm up, and prime it 10-15 times, as per directions.
My problems:
1. It's so hard to push. It doesn't glide on my vinyl floor at all.
2. Having to go over the same spot 7-8 times to get a small spot off.
3. It leaves a small line of dirt that I then have to go around and wipe up.
My kitchen floor is about 10 x 12 feet. It takes me about 25 minutes to do it with the steam mop. I switch pushing hands every 10 min or so, but my arms are really tired by the end of it, because it's so hard to push.
I do like that it's not a huge wet mess after, but a regular mop or bucket washing is so much faster that I could even go back and dry it in less time that it takes to steam mop!
Anyhow, is this just how it works or am I doing something wrong?
