Dear alex, thank you for your thoughtful and elaborated comparison between mop/vaccum thingy. i just got myself a black + decker steam mop and my life is changed after 2 rounds with steam mopping my kitchen area. Never thought they are so dirty! The steam really agitate all the oil and dirt from kitchen floor especially my wet kitchen. My kitchen floor now feels squeaky clean!
Hi Alex, understand that steam mop is good and effective. May I know if it is suitable to weekly mopping on vinyl floorings? Some reviews on steam mop indicated that it is not ideal for vinyl or laminate flooring. Appreciate your comment. Thank you.
I use a Ecovacs T8 AIVI robot vacuum daily, also for infrequent mopping. The mop function isn't great (could be marginally better because it vibrates) but because it's done so often, it actually picks up little dirt each time and I find it effective. I also set cleaning cycle to prioritize areas and start with key rooms so those are always clean. To supplement, I use a handheld vacuum (dyson), and manual mopping/cleaning with magiclean products. Also have a industrial wet/dry vacuum as standby since have to use for air-con servicing or larger works - I was looking into battery powered for this (e.g. bosch) but got one yet. Dyson is still my brand of choice for handheld vacuum as it's good, lasts super long (I still have 8-12 year old models working great), and 3rd party battery or accessories are easy to get. Other brands worked ok for me but just had to replace sooner especially for battery. Steam mop idea looks interesting but it still doesn't solve general surface cleaning (i.e. non hard floor) or persistent stains.
I absolutely agree with your endorsement of the steam mop. I am using the exact same Black & Decker model as yours and also bought one for my parents after a friend’s parent had a bad fall while mopping with a conventional mop+pail setup ☹️ The steam mop is not only safer (because steam evaporates very quickly - so the floor won’t be left slippery), it also also clears stains and sticky-feeling floor almost effortlessly. This particularmodel is no longer being sold - I heard that the newer equivalent model can no longer be left to “stand” without support. Also, thank you for comparing against the Deerma. Aside from having a much shorter power cord, it also has a smaller container for water - which means you not only need to unplug it often but top up the water often too! That would be a deal breaker for me 😅😅
absolutely spot on, keep changing socket and refill water is no joke haha. I think this is the latest? www.blackanddecker.com/products/home-cleaning/powered-cleaning/steam-cleaners/10in1-steammop-with-fresh-scent/bdh1855sm The other models on the website look like they can stand as well..
I still have my Rainbow that I bought 10 years ago and it's still one of the best cleaning, environmentally friendly and versatile vacuum cleaner I have ever owned. I bought a Dyson V11 thinking that it would be a good supplement to it (for fast cleaning) and it was but it definitely does not clean as well as the Dyson or any of the others I've tried. I recently wanted to get a wet/vac for mopping and also noticed that theTineco had the same Rainbow Hepa concept. After doing some research though, I noticed that people love it when they first buy and use it, but they say that they generally don't last very long. With it's 2 year warranty and their lack of communication with their customers who want to get theirs repaired, it has made me very hesitant about buying it. I suppose that once you own a vacuum cleaner that can last 10 years, it's much harder to tolerate buying expensive cleaning tech that threatens to die within 2 years. I wonder how yours is doing though so I'm going to check out your other videos in hopes that you give us an update on your experience with your Tineco. Be well and thanks for giving us your thoughts on these!
thanks for sharing your experience! The tineco S3 in this video, which is my friend's couldn't work anymore. As it is a China set, there is no way to get warranty support for it. My issue with such wet dry vacuum is that the battery is not replaceable, so technically they can never last for many years. For me, 4-5 years is considered good enough, I like to check out new tech as well so I don't mind to pass down my current equipment and try out something new
I been using the Deerma one for last 8 months n I quite like it..yes the cord is short n water droplets can accumulate..however I use intermittent pulses of the steam n it's works well..especially for its affordable price.
My wife and I are an older couple and prefer light weight cleaning machines. We purchased a Tineco A11 cordless vac one year ago and are very happy with it. We liked it so much that we gave one to friends as a wedding present. We looked for a cordless floor mop and found the Tineco iFloor 3. Since we liked our A11 so much, we bought it. It cleans floors quickly and easily and are very very happy with it as well. One thing, though. We found that if we washed the floors without first vacuuming, lint would build up inside of the waste water tank and require a self-clean. When we first started using it, we found that we would have to self-clean a few times. This required emptying the dirty water tank, adding water to the clean water tank, and letting run through its cleaning cycle. It became annoying to have to do this in the middle of "mopping." The solution to this was to first vacuum with the Tineco vac, then use the iFloor. Problem solved!
wow looks like you like tineco products a lot. But the idea of such wet dry vacuum is to speed up your daily cleaning by doing both functions together concurrently. Pouring away the dirty water tank should be fast and easy right?
@@AlexTeo We clean our floors usually once a week and originally thought the iFloor would do both functions. It does up to a point, and then we have to self clean. I guess that since we have a lot of square footage the machine needs to self clean half-way through. You're right, however, pouring out the dirty water is quick and easy. We are still very happy with the product, despite the minor slowdown.
I have the shark Apex as my go to vacuum, and love it -also have a streamer for kitchen etc, and I'm buying a wireless mop vacume this week. As a fellow clean freak I recommend getting a Purifier, don't get a cheap ones get the high end ones. Stay safe out there.
Hi thanks for the review , just wanted to know if the black &decker steamer cagoule be there see for 30 min to 60 min at a stretch or we need to take beeaks to clean if the house is big
I find that I need all, robot (having it), steam, and 2 in 1 handheld vacuum for my house... My house is big with small children and no maid available to help out.. I've been watching all kind of reviews, at last I could decide what I need to top up. Tq tq..
Re the new version bnd steam mop, what r pros n cons of using it ? Hot handle? Waiting time for steam production? I bought the deerma n very frustrated w it stopping every now n then More downtime than steam time
The top robot cleaners allow you to schedule which rooms to clean and to self-clean the mop heads before going to the next room. Robot cleaning is for general maintenance only. Manually steam cleaning is the best, especially for the kitchen and bathrooms.
the Steam mop looks good. I am currently using Xiaomi handheld electric mop. cordless and the movement of the mopping cloth gives a polishing effect to the floor. effortless to use as it doubles the effort of the mopping motion.
Today is 6.6 and wanted to get a hand-held vacuum cleaner for a really long time. I am a working mom but cook my meals, so badly need effective cleaning equipment to save me some time. Chance upon your video and love your simple, practical and clear presentation. I think I should go with a vacuum + mop cleaner. However, my budget is $400 and below. So the Tineco is beyond my budget and it looks quite bulky, charging station takes up some space.
Does it remove pet hair, spider webs & dust from mesh windows?? We usually use vacuum cleaner for these purposes. Can we replace Vacuum cleaner with this steam mop for cleaning the areas i mentioned above? I am confused whether to buy a vacuum cleaner or this steam mop. I can’t afford both, so need to choose either this or a vacuum cleaner. Kindly share your suggestions.
My goodness! Have been watching your videos and I was looking for videos about cordless vacuum and just before I press on the search bar this video is just right there, updated 6 hours ago! Thanks for sharing this!
Hi Alex, thank you for all these helpful and insightful videos. It really helps! Can I check if steam mop is good for use on vinyl flooring? I see that most sites doesn't recommend using steam mop against vinyl floors.
Tineco or vacuum robot + b&d? Currently contemplating of buying either tineco or roidme eve plus. Don't have a vacuum robot yet. Mind to share your opinion?
i don't fancy vacuum and steam together. Sometime you will see dirt/hair stuck on the floor due to liquid, vacuum will have difficulty picking up those especially if you are going quite fast.
Hi Alex I was wondering if you did a review on the Dreame H 11 max I was going through your videos but could not find it am thinking of getting it can’t decide between this and the Airbot one please advice thks
I couldn’t decide Electric vacuum & mob between. “Teniceo one s3” and “Dreame H11 X” the price abit different. But Dreame are vers. 2022 If you can choose Which one of this two you prefer to get in now day?
Hi Alex, I already have Dyson V12 Vacuum. I need a easy and light weight mop to clean floor, window, curtain & carpet. Is black & decker suit my needs?
Having trouble locating a local seller for the black and decker, specifically for the separate unit with hand held option to steam stove / oven etc aside from floor mop function. Any idea where to source for the later model?
I’m about to purchase steam mop, but kinda confused, which is better between xiaomi deerma steam mop or black and decker? mainly for cleaning oily floor..
Hi Alex,may i ask if the black&decker steam mop leaves water mark on a marble floor?? Any idea?? Looking forward to purchase one,but i really cant tolerate watermarks Appreciate ur advice. Thank you
Super helpful review! I was looking into buying the Deerma steam mop because the cord is attached to the handle instead of closer to the mop head as in the case of the Black and Decker. That seemed a little less intrusive and better designed. I'm surprised at the difference in the length of the two power cords since both Deerma and Black and Decker state that their respective cords are both 4 meters.
I had steam mop, rainbow vacuum cleaner and cordless vacuum cleaner right now but considering to buy the tineco floor 2.0 slim, what do you think? Is it necessary?
I read that steam mopping will cause damage to the vinyl flooring. What is your take on this? From your video, seems like only your kitchen and bathrooms are tiles?
Exactly what I am looking for. I have 2 cats and a toddler, a robot cleaning and a tradition vacuum (which I find exhausted everytime I use). I'm thinking about buying a steam mop lately and accidentally see your review => subscribed!
Hi Alex, would like to know if you’ve upgraded the Black & Decker steam mop? I’m looking for one but not sure which model should I get. The 10in1 has been discontinued.
I love ur channel , i was struggling with choosing steam mop for past one week . I quickly cancel my deerma steam mop Oder and go for B & D after watch your video . Thank you
Hi Alex, you bought 10 in 1 Black and Decker from Carousell for $120? Was it a used steam mop? Because i couldn't find the exact model on Carousell and its retailing at $828 on Shopee.
yes it is very nice, you refer to my taobao review or 'hdb bedroom to gaming room' videos where I talked about the sofa and check out the video description of those videos
your best bet is probably carousell now if you are in sg, else I think it's hard to find one now, think its out of stock. Departmental stores used to sell it
Great video. Totally agree with you about the robots that mop. As you said, it's essentially dragging a soiled cloth across the floor. :) I got rid of mine after 1 month! However, the ones which spray a mist of water and suck the water back are quite effective. Am currently using a Hizero, which is quite effective.
And having to clean the cloth and top up water so frequently kind of defeat the idea of a robot. Ya hizero is very clean but i have issues with the sides and corners where the mopping cant reach, I will have a video with hizero next month!
Hi Alex, is it worth it to buy the xiaomi dreame v11? how long does it takes too charge? or should i just buy dyson v8 instead? thank you for the steam mop recommendation i'm gonna buy the black & decker the deerma was on my cart already luckily i watch this video
i think they have new cordless stick vacuum models can go check those out, the quality of the brush on the attachments are not very good compared to dyson
Steam mop is good for deep cleaning but it takes a bit more time and effort. BTW, Karcher is the beast in steam mop and they also have a 2-in1 vacuum + mop so that you only need to go one round instead of two in your house to clean. I have a Karcher SC4 and a normal spray mop and the after-cleaning effect of both is day and night. One advantage of using the steam mop is that you do not need any chemical in your cleaning as the steam is able to eradicate all grime and grease, so a steam mop is very ideal for households with very young kids. I'm curious on how you use the steam to clean your mirrors and glass. Besides the mirrors and glass, do you clean anything else using the steam? I find it too time-consuming to steam my shower screen for example, so I only use it for the floow. For the mirrors and glass, you only use the steam and the squeegee to clean? That is enough to do a squeaky-clean job? Thanks.
yeah I only do steam mopping once a week. Somebody else commented about Karcher steam mop as well, would love to try it if there is a chance. I clean the stove and microwave with steam as well. The mirrors look clean for my standard haha
Hi Alex, I’m trying to figure out what type of vacuum to buy. I have a 3 story home and 2 pets. Since I have so much square footage to vacuum, I don’t think a cordless would be good for me. I was wondering if you tried the dyson upright vacuums? I need a really good one that picks up hair.
Hi Alex, thanks for recommending steam mop. But I see you are using vinyl flooring. Is it ok to use steam mop on vinyl? I searched online and it says vinyl is not suitable for steam mop. I’m confused
@@AlexTeo having squeaky clean floor is my no.1 priority. In your opinion, is it ok to use steam mop everyday? Currently I’ve been using vacuum robot everyday and then magiclean to somewhat dry mop but I still feel the floor is dirty. I chanced upon this video again and thought I want to follow your methodology by getting a black and decker steam mop and a handheld vacuum but am unsure of the frequency I should be cleaning especially with the steam mop.
Is Tineco heavy like dyson. Can it be used both ways dry n wet mop. What abt black n decker steam mop...do they hv 2 functions for just mop cleaning n steam mop. Will black decker n tineco good for hard ceramic floor tiles. Wanted to buy mop tat serves 2 functions....dry n wet cleaning. Tks for sharing....
yes the tineco is heavy. For steam mop, its only steam mopping no normal mopping. i don't know what's a mop that can serve both dry and wet mopping in this context, any example?
Thank you for the review. I ordered Tineco, arriving next week. I'm currently using roomba ( it's dying after 8 years, so replacing with 2 irobots from different brand and cheaper, arriving next week). Miele canister vacuum ( 11 years old and still going strong), Miele upright ( going to get rid of it, too heavy and have no carpets left in my house) and two handheld, cordless dysons, one of them is dead after 4 years, another one is working. I like to have vacuums on both floors or I will avoid to vacuum as long as possible :D
Hi Alex, where did you buy the Black and Decker steam mop? I found it on Shopee but it is shipped from Korea and comes with a korea plug. Does yours come with a singapore plug?
Looking at going for a serious upgrade and get the Tineco s3 and Dyson. I didn’t know about the Dreame option, my only question is regarding the suction power...does it do a really good job with deep cleaning large carpet areas?
which cleaning equipment do you like most? 😁
The steam mop looks amazing!!
For me, steam mop is good to have compared to the traditional mop
tineco for flooring and steam mop for surface cleaning~
Really tempted to get the teneco cleaning mop but worth while to get the both the black and decker?
@@ericwjt1980 if you don't have a vacuum robot, then the tineco is really very convenient for day to day vacuum+mop together
Love how you discuss the pros and cons, and get straight to the point!
Bought the Tineco S3. Worth it. No more back pain from manual mopping and saves me a lot of time. Cleaning the equipment is relatively easy too.
woww that's nice, glad to hear that!
Never thought of steam mop. Thanks for tips, as a pet owner. Would definitely try this
So rare to see a SG based tech UA-camr. Subscribed!
thanks for the sub!
Dear alex, thank you for your thoughtful and elaborated comparison between mop/vaccum thingy. i just got myself a black + decker steam mop and my life is changed after 2 rounds with steam mopping my kitchen area. Never thought they are so dirty! The steam really agitate all the oil and dirt from kitchen floor especially my wet kitchen. My kitchen floor now feels squeaky clean!
Perfect home cleaning set up involve the following
1. Narwal mopping robot (daily maintenance)
2. Ecovacs vacuuming robot (daily maintenance)
3. Tineco S3 (weekly adhoc cleaning)
4. Dyson V10 (weekly adhoc vacuuming)
niceeee interesting product. Definitely going to check out those robots since I am planning to upgrade my current one
Hi Alex, understand that steam mop is good and effective. May I know if it is suitable to weekly mopping on vinyl floorings? Some reviews on steam mop indicated that it is not ideal for vinyl or laminate flooring. Appreciate your comment. Thank you.
quality of the vinyl and type of steam mop matters
I use a Ecovacs T8 AIVI robot vacuum daily, also for infrequent mopping. The mop function isn't great (could be marginally better because it vibrates) but because it's done so often, it actually picks up little dirt each time and I find it effective. I also set cleaning cycle to prioritize areas and start with key rooms so those are always clean. To supplement, I use a handheld vacuum (dyson), and manual mopping/cleaning with magiclean products. Also have a industrial wet/dry vacuum as standby since have to use for air-con servicing or larger works - I was looking into battery powered for this (e.g. bosch) but got one yet.
Dyson is still my brand of choice for handheld vacuum as it's good, lasts super long (I still have 8-12 year old models working great), and 3rd party battery or accessories are easy to get. Other brands worked ok for me but just had to replace sooner especially for battery.
Steam mop idea looks interesting but it still doesn't solve general surface cleaning (i.e. non hard floor) or persistent stains.
Ecovacs getting popular recently.. will def check out the T8 model u mention! Good one..
Yeah i used alot of the disinfecting wet wipes as well
I absolutely agree with your endorsement of the steam mop. I am using the exact same Black & Decker model as yours and also bought one for my parents after a friend’s parent had a bad fall while mopping with a conventional mop+pail setup ☹️ The steam mop is not only safer (because steam evaporates very quickly - so the floor won’t be left slippery), it also also clears stains and sticky-feeling floor almost effortlessly. This particularmodel is no longer being sold - I heard that the newer equivalent model can no longer be left to “stand” without support. Also, thank you for comparing against the Deerma. Aside from having a much shorter power cord, it also has a smaller container for water - which means you not only need to unplug it often but top up the water often too! That would be a deal breaker for me 😅😅
absolutely spot on, keep changing socket and refill water is no joke haha.

I had steam mop, rainbow vacuum cleaner and cordless vacuum cleaner right now but considering to buy the tineco floor 2.0 slim, what do you think? Is it necessary?
Hi! Do you know if there are cordless steam mops? Thank you!
no man, I also want a steam mop that is cordless haha
Hi Alex, can you list down the model of the steam mop. The current one in the video and the upgrade version that u recommend. thanks!
I read that steam mopping will cause damage to the vinyl flooring. What is your take on this?
From your video, seems like only your kitchen and bathrooms are tiles?
Bathroom is marble. I gave my take in the part 2 video for cleaning appliance
Hi Alex, any chance you go test how low this b&d steam mop can go? Trying to figure if I can use it under bed. About 15cm
Hi Alex, what do you think of Karcher SC1?
What do u think of dyson vs roidmi x200 specs?
Hi, Alex. Have you used your B&D in your sofa? How was it? Did you use special cleaning agents? Ty
sofa no, carpet yes. Never use any cleaning agent
@@AlexTeo appreciate your response. Thanks!
Hi Alex,. Thanks for this video. Can you suggest hand held vaccum cleaner for daily use. Is there any way that, I can speak to you over phone
Which is the latest model that is good to use for steam mopping (black & decker)?
can't recommend any yet since I haven't get to try it myself, waiting for them to send me haha
Exactly what I am looking for. I have 2 cats and a toddler, a robot cleaning and a tradition vacuum (which I find exhausted everytime I use). I'm thinking about buying a steam mop lately and accidentally see your review => subscribed!
Thanks for the sub!
Is the black & decker a vacuum as well?
nope, purely steam mop
Hi Alex, would like to know if you’ve upgraded the Black & Decker steam mop? I’m looking for one but not sure which model should I get. The 10in1 has been discontinued.
haven't, there are quite a number of choices out there including from other brands so I will slowly evaluate
@@AlexTeo Ohk, then I shall read reviews, look around for more options, thanks 🙂
how has your opinion of robot vacuum + mops changed since you used the roborock s7vmax ultra?
ya spinning mop pads with auto cleaning is my preferred choice
I am thinking of getting a steam mop but I also read that it is not suitable for vinyl plank flooring. Any views?
i will say use them correctly
I love ur channel , i was struggling with choosing steam mop for past one week . I quickly cancel my deerma steam mop Oder and go for B & D after watch your video . Thank you
Hi Alex, you bought 10 in 1 Black and Decker from Carousell for $120? Was it a used steam mop? Because i couldn't find the exact model on Carousell and its retailing at $828 on Shopee.
yes from carousell, it was as good as new. got the shopee link?
The Black and decker steam mop - which model is it? You mentioned a price point of $120? Pls share the model number pls.
i got a 2nd hard (like new) from carousell, its the 10in1 which you can't get direct from black and decker anymore
What’s the weight for B&D steam mop not heavy?
Very helpful reviews thanks 🙏🏼
thanks! not heavy imo
Thanks 🙏🏼
Can steam mop black n decker use to clean carpet
Provided you have the carpet attachment, but they are actually not purpose built for carpet
Your sofa very nice..can u share what model and where you buy
yes it is very nice, you refer to my taobao review or 'hdb bedroom to gaming room' videos where I talked about the sofa and check out the video description of those videos
Hi Dude, may i know the brand and where you get the living room sofa? Been trying to find one with 45 degree lean back by default sofa. Thanks
tmall taobao, covered this sofa a couple of times in my other videos already, feel free to check them out :)
Hi Alex I learned a lot but do you know where I can get the black and decker steam mop
your best bet is probably carousell now if you are in sg, else I think it's hard to find one now, think its out of stock. Departmental stores used to sell it
@@AlexTeo okay thanks for the reply
I am searching for a good corded vacuum cleaner with powerful suction. Please help me decide
Great video. Totally agree with you about the robots that mop. As you said, it's essentially dragging a soiled cloth across the floor. :) I got rid of mine after 1 month! However, the ones which spray a mist of water and suck the water back are quite effective. Am currently using a Hizero, which is quite effective.
And having to clean the cloth and top up water so frequently kind of defeat the idea of a robot. Ya hizero is very clean but i have issues with the sides and corners where the mopping cant reach, I will have a video with hizero next month!
I enjoyed the video. Factual, to the point and no annoying music in background
thanks haa... music is to prevent awkward silence when there is nobody talking
Hi Alex can you send the link for the steam mop in the video
no link as its out of production :(
Hi Alex, is it worth it to buy the xiaomi dreame v11? how long does it takes too charge? or should i just buy dyson v8 instead? thank you for the steam mop recommendation i'm gonna buy the black & decker the deerma was on my cart already luckily i watch this video
i think they have new cordless stick vacuum models can go check those out, the quality of the brush on the attachments are not very good compared to dyson
Enjoy your review. Can I know the model of black and decker steam mop and do you know what are their latest model?
the one i am using is the 10in1, latest one should be the handheld version
I have a stream mop but not cordless. Can you recommend a stream mop that is cordless?
i don't think we have such tech yet
Steam mop is good for deep cleaning but it takes a bit more time and effort. BTW, Karcher is the beast in steam mop and they also have a 2-in1 vacuum + mop so that you only need to go one round instead of two in your house to clean. I have a Karcher SC4 and a normal spray mop and the after-cleaning effect of both is day and night. One advantage of using the steam mop is that you do not need any chemical in your cleaning as the steam is able to eradicate all grime and grease, so a steam mop is very ideal for households with very young kids. I'm curious on how you use the steam to clean your mirrors and glass. Besides the mirrors and glass, do you clean anything else using the steam? I find it too time-consuming to steam my shower screen for example, so I only use it for the floow. For the mirrors and glass, you only use the steam and the squeegee to clean? That is enough to do a squeaky-clean job? Thanks.
yeah I only do steam mopping once a week. Somebody else commented about Karcher steam mop as well, would love to try it if there is a chance. I clean the stove and microwave with steam as well. The mirrors look clean for my standard haha
Please compare this S3 with the lastest and cheaper Roborock Dyad U10. Thanks!
Hi Alex, I’m trying to figure out what type of vacuum to buy. I have a 3 story home and 2 pets. Since I have so much square footage to vacuum, I don’t think a cordless would be good for me. I was wondering if you tried the dyson upright vacuums? I need a really good one that picks up hair.
Hi Alex, thanks for recommending steam mop. But I see you are using vinyl flooring. Is it ok to use steam mop on vinyl? I searched online and it says vinyl is not suitable for steam mop. I’m confused
at the same time they recommend dry mopping? i think it depends on you how much you like to 'play safe'
@@AlexTeo having squeaky clean floor is my no.1 priority. In your opinion, is it ok to use steam mop everyday?
Currently I’ve been using vacuum robot everyday and then magiclean to somewhat dry mop but I still feel the floor is dirty.
I chanced upon this video again and thought I want to follow your methodology by getting a black and decker steam mop and a handheld vacuum but am unsure of the frequency I should be cleaning especially with the steam mop.
Is Tineco heavy like dyson. Can it be used both ways dry n wet mop. What abt black n decker steam mop...do they hv 2 functions for just mop cleaning n steam mop. Will black decker n tineco good for hard ceramic floor tiles. Wanted to buy mop tat serves 2 functions....dry n wet cleaning. Tks for sharing....
yes the tineco is heavy. For steam mop, its only steam mopping no normal mopping.
i don't know what's a mop that can serve both dry and wet mopping in this context, any example?
@@AlexTeo Hustorm HS9000 frm korea...wireless dual cyclone ...wet n dry vacuum cleaner.
@@AlexTeo Thanks your sharing. Your sharing is useful. Quick question: Is Tineco high temperature steam mopping?
I'm using the same vacuum, love it.
Thank you for the review. I ordered Tineco, arriving next week. I'm currently using roomba ( it's dying after 8 years, so replacing with 2 irobots from different brand and cheaper, arriving next week). Miele canister vacuum ( 11 years old and still going strong), Miele upright ( going to get rid of it, too heavy and have no carpets left in my house) and two handheld, cordless dysons, one of them is dead after 4 years, another one is working. I like to have vacuums on both floors or I will avoid to vacuum as long as possible :D
Hey there can I know what was the price you bought the Dreame V11 for as the link didn’t work thanks
i got it from ezbuy, can't remember how much I got it already sorry man
Hi alex, i am looking for th best cordless vacumm / steam mop that also can be used to clean th car
best cordless vacuum is probably gonna be dyson, i don't think there is cordless steam mop in the market
Hi Alex, where did you buy the Black and Decker steam mop? I found it on Shopee but it is shipped from Korea and comes with a korea plug. Does yours come with a singapore plug?
i bought from carousell as it used to sell in those mega electronic stores so its 3pin UK plug. I suggest getting those with local warranty
Looking at going for a serious upgrade and get the Tineco s3 and Dyson. I didn’t know about the Dreame option, my only question is regarding the suction power...does it do a really good job with deep cleaning large carpet areas?
hmm no idea whether it does a 'good' job, just vacuum at the highest suction power and assume it does haha
Thank you. Very helpful. Your review help me narrow down options.
Great to hear!
