Oh, get over yourselves. What about people who have an apartment? Pouring it down an EMPTY kitchen sink and then CLEANING said sink is perfectly fine if that’s all you have. Stop trying to righteously shame people.
So you're implying that people in apartments don't have a toilet to pour out the dirty water. Think about it, the sink will eventually clog up from the copious amount of dirt and hair that machine picks up.
Best purchase!!! Hint: extend battery life remove from charger at 100%, run as low as possible before recharge. My adhd brain loves this machine telling me what to do. Great real life review. Thank you so much!
Bought this 1 year ago. I can run it out of battery, but it does get my first floor and 3 bathrooms done. I always run my Dyson V10 over the floor first, then use the Tineco. This is not required but I don't like cleaning out the wet hair (yuck). It does a good job and will pick up most daily dirt. It doesn't reach all the way to the wall so you might have to wipe or map that inch and a half by hand. The self clean is great. I run it twice after each use and then make sure I clean the dirty water container well and let it dry, swap the roller head and filter with the stored one. I recommend this machine. It doesn't over wet your floor and does a great job mapping your floors. The roller mops don't smell and it is so easy to use versus a corded mopper.
I'm sure you've tried it already, and sorry to "mansplain" but have you tried running the mop with the Tineco logo on the floorhead next to the wall? The roller is much closer to the edge and will only leave a gap of approximately 1cm that's "uncleaned", whereas the other side where the drive shaft is leaves a gap of nearly 1 inch.
I’ve been looking at review videos but this was actually the most helpful review video of all that I’ve seen. We were trying to decide between brands. This sold me. Going to buy it right now.
Just watched your honest review of the Tineco, and you made a believer in me! Thank you for your great review, I’m going to order one right away. We’ve got the spinner mops that work great, but it’s a lot of work vacuuming, and then having to mop after each time.
Thank you so much for this review!!! You sold me when showing the interface on the device and explaining the color codes (clean/dirty). I also love how it picks up EVERYTHING! I can finally say good riddance to my mop and bucket!
I ordered this and received yesterday! Let me tell you, I am super pleased. I have rough, circular sawn, hard wood floor through much of my house (bathrooms are vinyl wood plank) and this was a deal changer! I was really worried how this would act on the rough cut floor and it was great- when we put it in, we sealed it with about 10 coats of poly and the Tineco worked great - better than I could do on hands and knees. I was curious to see if it would streak in the bathroom from hair product on the floor but no streaks. I used warm water on the hard wood, I did not use the cleaning solution. I couldn't believe how dirty the water was. Worth every penny!
I just ordered the iFloor 3 and I’m sitting here watching videos like this to live vicariously through you until mine arrives 😂 thanks for the thorough review!
I’ve been wanting something like this for a long time. This is it! Not sure I’m going to get it just yet, but love knowing it exists and seeing it in action. Thanks for the review Amanda!
Thank you I enjoyed your video. We just bought one of these vacuum scrubbers and I was interested on how it works. Your video helped immensely. Unlike you I’m not the guy who likes to read the manual! Lol
You just totally sold me when I saw all the dog and cat hair. I have 5 chihuahuas and it is similar. I have been through probably 20 Hoover Floormate and 5 Bissel power mates . They last 4-9 months. I have have back surgery so I really need a floor cleaner. I am definitely going to try this because of you!!!!!!🎉
I have been mulling around about getting a wet-dry vacuum for months now and you just sold me on this one! I have a two-story home and it is an absolute PAIN to have to sweep and mop more than once a month. Costco, here I come! Thank you so much!
You did a better demo than QVC!!! I read the instructions but would go blank… so I said I’m going on UA-cam and that’s where I found you!!! Thank you so much you did a awesome job! And I do love it, I’m kind of old and this is going to help me get the job done…👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 P.S. hope Tineco sees your review 😆
Perfect... your floor plan is about the same as ours, and I wasn't sure if the Tineco could handle it. I was leaning to the crosswave, but this video was the tiebreaker. THANK YOU!
Awesome! I'm currently working on a review for the Tineco Cordless A11 Hero EX too. I absolutely still love this vacuum mop for the hard floors but I needed a vacuum for my rugs. I hope you don't mind using the link in the description box, amazon gives me a few dollars when someone uses it! 😁 I'm glad you liked my review and thanks for leaving a comment!
I have a tineco, i like it but you do have to sweep first if you have a golden retriever, that dog hair will immediately clog up the roller if not swept either way a broom first, but it does make mopping easier

I got a corded Bissell Crosswise 4 months ago as a gift but I kept hearing about Tineco S3. On Black Friday I decided to order it was on sale for $235 and Amazon ihas great customer service.. I do hope it works better than the Crosswise. My Crosswise is just not easy to clean the brush and it's heavy and definitely doesn't have all the extra features and the cord. How is yours holding up? My only concern is if the battery dies I believe it is not covered with the 2 year warranty so hopefully that doesn't happen. I didn't order the S5 because it was about $95 more and the S5 Pro was about $200 more, hoping the edge cleaning and smaller tanks won't be an issue. Thanks for your honest review.
You're very welcome, I hope it's helpful. Mine is now almost 1.5 years old and I still absolutely love it. I did a deep clean on it after getting an error (I have a video on that) and after that it's been working beautifully again. Definitely one of my best purchases!
My friend what an explanation what a video keep up the good work you explained all we need to know on how use the product my sister brought me hers that won't work properly or don't work at all as I understood it just got it today but I wi'll work on it tomorrow thank you again and I admire ury greatness on this video..
I just bought one and it came in late last night just because of your review and one other just to be sure and I can’t wait to do my sons bathroom,hall and bedroom sheesh ty for review
@@alpha0meqa Used it a few times and I love it so far. Now I just bring it out to do quick mop/vac in the kitchen or bathrooms. I more or less treat it like a broom with the benefit of a quick dry mop. Does well against the edges.
I know in your video you haven't tried a different cleaning solution. But since some time passed I was wondering if you have? I was reading some review and they say that it is hard to get their solution (seems to always be out of stock) so for me to get this I need to know it's not a problem using something else. Thank you so much! Loved your video
Does it rinse the floor after using the cleaning solution because if the babies crawl and put their hands in their mouth is it baby friendly non toxic if some cleaner gets on skin or swallowed?
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed my review! I'm not sponsored, I bought the mop myself a little over 4 months ago, so I won't be replacing it anytime soon. I still love the S3 though!
Thanks for this video. I recently saw this product on a CES2022 demo (but for their S5 version). Had no idea these things existed. Totally gonna get one. Thank you again!
Glad my review helped! I'd love you to use my link if you buy from Amazon, they throw a few bucks to me. I love my mop, I usually get buyers remorse but not with this! 😁
Why doesn’t this Tineco floor one s3 smart cordless vac and wash say it’s self propelled on the box or in the little book that comes with it? No where does is say self propelled , so is it? Before I finish opening up my box
I literally watched your video so many times before I started using it. Thanks for all the tips! ❤ How many times do you need to add water and change the dirty water tank? My condo is small but I had to add water once and change dwt twice. Is that normal?
Hum, I usually only have to fill the water once, and empty the dwt once when I'm cleaning my downstairs. Sometimes if I'm being very thorough it'll be twice.
Thank you so much for doing this how to use video.. You were very thorough with your demonstration that it was so easy for me to use my vacuum right after watching this! Also, did you ever try a different cleaning solution in the water besides the one they suggest you to use?
You are so welcome! I have stuck to the Tineco solution or sometimes just water. It is expensive enough of a machine that I didn't want to risk damage.
That's good to hear because I know several people wonder if other solutions work. Of course the instructions say stick with tineco solution, but I guess that's the way to know it won't mess up the machine.
Hi! Thanks for your video! I have a question as I just used this product for the first time. Halfway through first mop, i was prompted for self cleaning so i put it back on stand and pressed self cleaning button.. water started leaking out the bottom all during self cleaning. Then once it finished i tried to go back and finish, but it was leaking water instead of sucking back in. I did make sure there was water in the DWT and the dirty water was emptied. Do you have any ideas what to do? Couldn't find anything in the manual
Please talk about streaking. I've had nothing but problems with these kinds of machines leaving streaks on laminate. Also read many reviews on Amazon withe people complaining about streaking. Any thoughts/suggestions/comments?
I only use the one capful of cleaner it suggests and I have zero issue with streaking on my vinyl plank flooring. 8 months in and I still love this mop, I feel it gets my floor cleaner than anything I've ever used.
Thanks for the review! May I know if you clean the HEPA filter after each use and is it alright if I just use water instead of mixing the Tineco solution?
I give it a quick rinse after each use as I'm cleaning out the tank. You could probably just use water, but the cleaner does work well. I'm amazed at how dirty the water is every time I empty the tank. I haven't used it with just plain water so can't speak to how effective it would be on it's own. Hope that helps!
Nope! I finish mopping and put it straight on the charger. I run the self clean, empty out the dirty water and then leave it to charge until the next use. I appreciate if you use the link in the description box if you decide to purchase this mop. Let me know if you have any other questions! 😁
We just move Roa new house ( new to use but is 50+years lol) anyways I keep cleaning the laminate floor and it keep coming dirty the mop and I wash the mop each time I will pass it again in a clean water. I think the porosity of the floor have dirt. I already steam, clean with a right amount of bleach, another day a mix of alcohol and vinegar and soap and I pass a white towel and it keep coming dirty. I am embarrassing when guess come over and leave with dirty socks. Excuse my poor English. I just wonder if this vacuum could be my salvation and end of my worries about my floors. We can’t change floors now if huge are, every single room and basement have the same laminate floor. Thanks for your review ❤
Hello, how is it doing so far? Planning on purchasing this now but still on the fence regarding reliability. Has the battery life been shortened or the same? Any issues thus far? Thank you so much.
I've had mine for over a year and half and still absolutely love it. I've done a few deep cleans on it (I have a video on how to do that.) And it still works perfectly. Battery life is still the same as when I got it. It's been my favorite appliance purchase ever.
How often are you refilling your solution water tank for the amount of sq ft your cleaning? I notice that when it get low it starts to spit out dirty water…
Yes, I always leave the clean water tank full, but never the dirty one. It will stink fast. It really depends on the clean cycle. Sometimes it'll run a deep clean which will use a lot of the water tank, sometimes it seems like it doesn't use much at all.
We got a Dyson a while back that we keep upstairs which is all carpet (except the bathrooms, which I use this mop on!) For my stairs, which are also carpet I have a cheap little hand vacuum. I'm all about the right tool for the job. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😁
Hi Amanda, hope your doing well. I subscribe to your channel and love your videos. I am from Denmark and I'm impressed about your Tineco S3. It's not available her, but saw it on Amazon. Seems to be a very expensive but good machine. Can you please let us know how it work after having it some while. No problems at all accured? What about the battery life? Would love to hear from you. Thanks in advance and regards from Barbara, Copenhagen...
Hi Barbara! I absolutely love my Tineco S3 still. I often get buyers remorse but not with this. It is totally worth it, if it's in your budget. My floors get SOOOO clean after I use it. I'm always appalled at the dirty water pouring out of the tank!
Hi my tineco S3 moves so fast. It is like me walking fast with it. When I don’t meet pace with it, am getting shoulder pain. Have you/others faced same issue? Is there any way to run it at low speed?
This may be a question for Tineco customer service. That's the self propel feature that is supposed to make mopping more easy. I don't know if there's a way to turn it off or slow it down.
Hi, what kind of floors do you have? This item has been in my shopping cart for about a month. I have laminate and I know it can be sensitive to excessive water. But with 3 cats this looks like a perfect solution for we
I have vinyl plank floors, which I think are similar to laminate? This doesn't put down a lot of water and it sucks it right back up. I also had it in my cart for a month before finally buying it. I'm so glad I did, no regrets, I feel my floors have never been so clean. If you do buy it, I'd appreciate you using my link. I'm not sponsored, but Amazon throws me a couple dollars when someone uses my link and then purchases in that session. ❤️❤️❤️
They of course recommend not to. It works so well that I am happy with using it. I bought my vac/mop end of May and am still using the 1st bottle of cleaner 6 months later. I just bought a new bottle because I'm finally getting low. And thanks! I'm glad the review helped!
Hasn't so far. My daughters have very long straight hair and you see my long curls. So far the roller has been so super easy to clean and nothing has gotten clogged. I'm especially happy it picks up my dog and cat's hair. The swiffer I used to have just pushed those around and was so annoying!

And make sure to subscribe for more content from me! 😁 If you decided to buy this mop, I'd appreciate you using my amazon affiliate link! amzn.to/2UTnvB7 I just did an ubcoxing video of the Tineco A11 Hero EX cordless vacuum if you want to check that video out! ua-cam.com/video/MVk2wayu5Sg/v-deo.html
I'm so pleased with this one, that the extra cost of the S5 pro doesn't have enough features that I'd be interested in spending more. But that's just my personal opinion.
@@TheNeurospicyMama hello again I'm in Australia I just bought myself one thought I would let you know and you are right no streaks it's great thank you 😊
Not this model. It's meant for a fairly small amount of debris on hard surfaces. I did just order a tineco cordless vacuum and will be doing a review on it when it arrives!
@@TheNeurospicyMama nice! I want to buy also a tineco cordless vacuum. The S12 pure one pro ex. I dont know which one you purchased but I will watch your video!
I bought the A11 Hero EX. I have a Dyson for my main upstairs vacuum so I didn't want to spend quite as much money for a second vacuum that I'll mostly be using on downstairs rugs and the stairs themselves. The upright Dyson I have is too cumbersome to navigate to vacuum stairs. I can't wait for this one to arrive so I can see how it compares to a Dyson upright!
@@thundergirl95.25 just waiting for it to arrive! It wasn't eligible for Amazon prime. I'm "letting" my living room rug get nice and dirty to put it to the test. AKA I don't want to drag my Dyson downstairs. 😂
No, it vacuum and mops all at once. You can't turn off the mop feature. Also, if the floor is heavy with debris a quick sweeping would be advised. If I use this twice a week with two dogs and two cats I don't have to sweep. But if I let the hair build up more than that it can clog the machine it seems.
Ah good to know, thank you for commenting! I did look at some more comparison and ifloor might be a better buy if you have a smaller space. It has a smaller tank that doesn't alert when it's empty, and it has a shorter battery life. On the flip side, it weighs less so that could be a benefit. The cleaning function is supposedly updated on the S3, with a squeegie to get debris off the roller. Depending on your needs, the base model might be the better buy. I'm still super happy with the S3 model I bought. Everytime I mop with it, I just marvel over how clean the floors look!
They are not lying when they say empty the tank before storing it away. I made the mistake of running the clean cycle and left the house, completely forgot about it until next use. BOYYYYY, as soon as I turned it on...that smell was disgustingly gross!!
Usually once a week, sometimes a bit longer between uses. Spot clean as needed. A couple days ago I spilled hot bacon grease on my kitchen floor. Yep, this mop got it right up and cleaned itself nicely! So incredibly impressed with it. 😁
On their website it lists "Tineco FLOOR ONE S3/IFLOOR 3/IFLOOR 2" Replacement Brush Roller are all the same. But I'm not sure if the floor one s2 is the same as the IFLOOR 2?
@@TheNeurospicyMama let’s say it’s full charged should I still leave it there plugged? Do you usually leave yours in the stand plugged? Or do you have unplugged while full charged? Sorry hope I’m making sense ..
@@xoxomonet4852 Yes, I just leave it fully charged plugged in on the stand. I'm not sure if the battery would drain over time if it wasn't plugged in, but I think the design is for it to just stay on the base and plugged in when not in use. Hope that helps!
I am so on the fence right now.. love how to reviewed the Tineno one s3, but I just don’t know what I should get!!! The Tineco, the Bissell crosswave X7 and the Bissellcrosswave HF3!!!! It’s like buy a car!!!! I have a chow chow and she sheds like crazy. But my only concerns with Tineco Is the small water tanks and the lady being too commanding. I saw your review for having it over a year and you still love it even after error message that costumer service help you with. Just got to make a decisions. Loves your review!!!!!!
I know I'm a researcher too! I looked at all those before deciding. I often get buyers remorse but with this none. Non sponsored, I did buy this with my own money and did the review without any compensation from the company. I was leaning towards Bissell just because of brand recognition, but honestly I think some big brands are resting on their names alone. Smaller companies have to be better to compete. And that's how I feel about this. I have heard the S5 has a bigger tank, but I'm still very pleased with my S3.
Tineco recommends their solution only. I'm on a fb group of other tineco users and some of them have reported using other solutions and it damaging their mop and other people say it's totally fine. For how expensive the mop is, I'm sticking with the recomended solution.
Nice machine, but it can't get into tight areas like a stick vacuum. I think I'll keep my swifter dust/wet mop. That talking mop would annoy me very quickly. Thanks for a great review.
Thanks for the comment! I find it gets pretty well into tight spaces, and even along edges. It does such a great job of getting pet hair too, I used to use a swifter but it just pushed dog hair around. Granted a swiffer is WAY cheaper, but I do find the Tineco so worth it if it's in your budget. Edited my comment, because I had a brain blip and thought you were commenting on a different vacuum review video I have. 🙂
Thank you! If you end up buying it, I'd appreciate you using my amazon link. Let me know if you have any questions, I've had it for about 9 months now and I still am in love with this mop. 😍
I've been using it for 4 months now. I absolutely am still loving it. It works like a charm, it cleans itself so nicely. This is the best purchase I've made for myself in a long time! (not sponsored, just a happy customer!)
You sold me on it and thank you, thank you, thank you for not pouring that nasty water down your kitchen sink like most people on UA-cam do.
I hear that! It is crazy how much dirt the mop picks up though. A year later I still love it. I'm glad my review was helpful. 😊
Kitchen sinks are not for washing dirty hands or dogs, that is what a laundry room sink upgrade is for. Most don’t want to buy one. Nasty
Oh, get over yourselves. What about people who have an apartment? Pouring it down an EMPTY kitchen sink and then CLEANING said sink is perfectly fine if that’s all you have. Stop trying to righteously shame people.

@@alpha0meqa Used it a few times and I love it so far. Now I just bring it out to do quick mop/vac in the kitchen or bathrooms. I more or less treat it like a broom with the benefit of a quick dry mop. Does well against the edges.
This vacuum looks great but can you use this on throw rugs ie oriental wool and other poly rugs sizes 8x10 etc.
It's not recommended to use on rugs. I have used it on my low pile synthetic rug, but I wouldn't use it on wool or high pile rug.
I know in your video you haven't tried a different cleaning solution. But since some time passed I was wondering if you have? I was reading some review and they say that it is hard to get their solution (seems to always be out of stock) so for me to get this I need to know it's not a problem using something else. Thank you so much! Loved your video
No I haven't, I've been lucky on getting tinecos solution from Amazon when it's in stock. Last time I bought extra too. I'm glad you like the video! 😁
You sold me on it! Thanks so much!
You're welcome, glad my video helped your research.
Does it rinse the floor after using the cleaning solution because if the babies crawl and put their hands in their mouth is it baby friendly non toxic if some cleaner gets on skin or swallowed?
It leaves the floor almost completely dry
The clean water tank is very small. So u need to refill it between floor cleanings?
It depends obviously on the size of your floor. You'll see in the video, that for the size of my space, I do refill it.
Great review, I appreciate your videos. I’d love to see you review the new model (s5 I think?) 😁
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed my review! I'm not sponsored, I bought the mop myself a little over 4 months ago, so I won't be replacing it anytime soon. I still love the S3 though!
Great review, thanks. Can you use it on the carpets you have downstairs ?
It's not recommended for carpets. I haven't tried it on mine, so I can't say what it's do.
Thanks for this video. I recently saw this product on a CES2022 demo (but for their S5 version). Had no idea these things existed. Totally gonna get one. Thank you again!
Glad my review helped! I'd love you to use my link if you buy from Amazon, they throw a few bucks to me. I love my mop, I usually get buyers remorse but not with this! 😁
Why doesn’t this Tineco floor one s3 smart cordless vac and wash say it’s self propelled on the box or in the little book that comes with it?
No where does is say self propelled , so is it? Before I finish opening up my box
It is, it pulls itself along similar to a self propelled vacuum cleaner. You still push it, but it helps pull itself along, if that makes sense.
Thanks, you did a great job!
Your review is great! Please share home / kitchen appliances, which make our life easier :)
I hope to do so in the future, I really enjoy review videos! I'm so glad you liked it.
Thanks for choosing such engaging music; nice review.
Thank you! I hope my review helped!
I literally watched your video so many times before I started using it. Thanks for all the tips! ❤
How many times do you need to add water and change the dirty water tank? My condo is small but I had to add water once and change dwt twice. Is that normal?
Hum, I usually only have to fill the water once, and empty the dwt once when I'm cleaning my downstairs. Sometimes if I'm being very thorough it'll be twice.
Also, so glad my video was helpful! 😊
Yes it was! I also saw your other one too😁
Thank you so much for doing this how to use video.. You were very thorough with your demonstration that it was so easy for me to use my vacuum right after watching this! Also, did you ever try a different cleaning solution in the water besides the one they suggest you to use?
You are so welcome! I have stuck to the Tineco solution or sometimes just water. It is expensive enough of a machine that I didn't want to risk damage.
Thanks so much for this review... iv been wanting a mop / vac .. but price are overwhelming and different brand.. this helped me
I'm so glad I could help! :)
My Tineco cleaning solution ran out, then I started the yellow color Mr Clean All Purpose Cleaner Liquid from Costco. Works amazingly.
That's good to hear because I know several people wonder if other solutions work. Of course the instructions say stick with tineco solution, but I guess that's the way to know it won't mess up the machine.
I’m not able to get the self cleaning button to work - any ideas?
I have a video showing how to deep clean the machine, that might help.
can it be used over the kitchen platform ? with that long handle
I'm not sure I understand the question. What is a kitchen platform?
Hi! Thanks for your video! I have a question as I just used this product for the first time. Halfway through first mop, i was prompted for self cleaning so i put it back on stand and pressed self cleaning button.. water started leaking out the bottom all during self cleaning. Then once it finished i tried to go back and finish, but it was leaking water instead of sucking back in. I did make sure there was water in the DWT and the dirty water was emptied. Do you have any ideas what to do? Couldn't find anything in the manual
Watch this video ua-cam.com/video/wxXBeB8cvSI/v-deo.html
But I'm guessing you have something stuck behind the roller. That's what happened to me.
Can you use it as just a vacuum cleaner without mopping?
No, it will always use water too.
Can we use it with water only without a cleaning solution as it is not available in my country?
I'm sure that would be okay!
Please talk about streaking. I've had nothing but problems with these kinds of machines leaving streaks on laminate. Also read many reviews on Amazon withe people complaining about streaking. Any thoughts/suggestions/comments?
I only use the one capful of cleaner it suggests and I have zero issue with streaking on my vinyl plank flooring. 8 months in and I still love this mop, I feel it gets my floor cleaner than anything I've ever used.
Thanks for the review! May I know if you clean the HEPA filter after each use and is it alright if I just use water instead of mixing the Tineco solution?
I give it a quick rinse after each use as I'm cleaning out the tank. You could probably just use water, but the cleaner does work well. I'm amazed at how dirty the water is every time I empty the tank. I haven't used it with just plain water so can't speak to how effective it would be on it's own. Hope that helps!
Very well explained..so much efforts to explain each n every details.... thanks for sharing...
Your very welcome!
Hi, Amanda! thank you for your review, I have a question I hope you could answer - does this vacuum require any pat drying/wiping dry before charging?
Nope! I finish mopping and put it straight on the charger. I run the self clean, empty out the dirty water and then leave it to charge until the next use. I appreciate if you use the link in the description box if you decide to purchase this mop. Let me know if you have any other questions! 😁
I bought this from Costco - is it an actual vacuum as well because I do have some area rugs I can't tell!
It isn't for rugs but I have used it on a low pile rug to clean up dog vomit. 😬
Great thanks. Did you use auto or max setting?
I usually use auto. I'll turn it up to max if something seems stuck on.
We just move Roa new house ( new to use but is 50+years lol) anyways I keep cleaning the laminate floor and it keep coming dirty the mop and I wash the mop each time I will pass it again in a clean water. I think the porosity of the floor have dirt. I already steam, clean with a right amount of bleach, another day a mix of alcohol and vinegar and soap and I pass a white towel and it keep coming dirty. I am embarrassing when guess come over and leave with dirty socks. Excuse my poor English. I just wonder if this vacuum could be my salvation and end of my worries about my floors. We can’t change floors now if huge are, every single room and basement have the same laminate floor. Thanks for your review ❤
I can't be sure of course, but I think it's worth a try. You could return it if it doesn't work for your situation. My floors are the vinyl planks.
@@TheNeurospicyMama thanks yes I’ll give it a tray I think it will clean more deep . ❤️
Can I ask you a question? Is the engine sound loud or is it annoying?
It's not excessively loud. Similar to a stick vacuum cleaner I'd say.
Hello, how is it doing so far? Planning on purchasing this now but still on the fence regarding reliability.
Has the battery life been shortened or the same? Any issues thus far?
Thank you so much.
I've had mine for over a year and half and still absolutely love it. I've done a few deep cleans on it (I have a video on how to do that.) And it still works perfectly. Battery life is still the same as when I got it. It's been my favorite appliance purchase ever.
How often are you refilling your solution water tank for the amount of sq ft your cleaning? I notice that when it get low it starts to spit out dirty water…
Mine doesn't spit out dirty water! My downstairs is probably about 1500 Sq ft (guessing) and I fill it twice to do that area.
I see u didn’t dump and clean out the DWT till after the self clean. Any reason for that?
No reason, there was room in the tank and then I didn't have to dump it twice. The self clean is for the roller.
Very helpful, thank you. And your home is lovely.
You're welcome and thank you so much 😊❤️
If you only use it to say mop a spill, can you leave the clean water tank filled until next use? How much water does the self clean function uses?
Yes, I always leave the clean water tank full, but never the dirty one. It will stink fast. It really depends on the clean cycle. Sometimes it'll run a deep clean which will use a lot of the water tank, sometimes it seems like it doesn't use much at all.
Can you vacuum without mopping?
No, it's all on one, not separate features
Love it!! Omg so what do you use to vacuum your stairs or other carpets in your home?
We got a Dyson a while back that we keep upstairs which is all carpet (except the bathrooms, which I use this mop on!) For my stairs, which are also carpet I have a cheap little hand vacuum. I'm all about the right tool for the job. Thanks for watching and commenting! 😁
can it use for engeeniring hard wood floor?
Yes
Hi Amanda, hope your doing well. I subscribe to your channel and love your videos. I am from Denmark and I'm impressed about your Tineco S3. It's not available her, but saw it on Amazon. Seems to be a very expensive but good machine. Can you please let us know how it work after having it some while. No problems at all accured? What about the battery life? Would love to hear from you. Thanks in advance and regards from Barbara, Copenhagen...
Hi Barbara! I absolutely love my Tineco S3 still. I often get buyers remorse but not with this. It is totally worth it, if it's in your budget. My floors get SOOOO clean after I use it. I'm always appalled at the dirty water pouring out of the tank!
Hi my tineco S3 moves so fast. It is like me walking fast with it. When I don’t meet pace with it, am getting shoulder pain. Have you/others faced same issue? Is there any way to run it at low speed?
This may be a question for Tineco customer service. That's the self propel feature that is supposed to make mopping more easy. I don't know if there's a way to turn it off or slow it down.
Hi, what kind of floors do you have? This item has been in my shopping cart for about a month. I have laminate and I know it can be sensitive to excessive water. But with 3 cats this looks like a perfect solution for we
I have vinyl plank floors, which I think are similar to laminate? This doesn't put down a lot of water and it sucks it right back up. I also had it in my cart for a month before finally buying it. I'm so glad I did, no regrets, I feel my floors have never been so clean. If you do buy it, I'd appreciate you using my link. I'm not sponsored, but Amazon throws me a couple dollars when someone uses my link and then purchases in that session. ❤️❤️❤️
Great review ! Would u use any other cleaner in the machine?
They of course recommend not to. It works so well that I am happy with using it. I bought my vac/mop end of May and am still using the 1st bottle of cleaner 6 months later. I just bought a new bottle because I'm finally getting low. And thanks! I'm glad the review helped!
Hello! Will long hair get stuck?
Hasn't so far. My daughters have very long straight hair and you see my long curls. So far the roller has been so super easy to clean and nothing has gotten clogged. I'm especially happy it picks up my dog and cat's hair. The swiffer I used to have just pushed those around and was so annoying!
If you like this video, please give it a thumbs up! And make sure to subscribe for more content from me! 😁 If you decided to buy this mop, I'd appreciate you using my amazon affiliate link! amzn.to/2UTnvB7
I just did an ubcoxing video of the Tineco A11 Hero EX cordless vacuum if you want to check that video out! ua-cam.com/video/MVk2wayu5Sg/v-deo.html
Great review. I just ordered one!
Awesome! I know you'll enjoy it!
Can it be used just for dry vacuuming on the days I do not need to mop?
Unfortunately, there isn't a way to turn off the mop feature. It is a mop first, vaccuum second.
I have the s5 pro and I LOVE it. I also have the crosswave MAX and it is great too!
Do you have a preference between the two machines?
...and I have only a simple mop 🥺
If you ever decide to get a techie mop, Tineco is the way to go! But I understand it is pricey!
I’m planning on getting one of these. Would you suggest upgrading to the S5 pro or you happy with this one ? Thanks
I'm so pleased with this one, that the extra cost of the S5 pro doesn't have enough features that I'd be interested in spending more. But that's just my personal opinion.
Does it leave streaks thanks
Nope! My floors look so amazing after mopping and they dry quickly without streaks.
@@TheNeurospicyMama thank you so much 😊
@@TheNeurospicyMama hello again I'm in Australia I just bought myself one thought I would let you know and you are right no streaks it's great thank you 😊
I have one and it definitely sounds louder on video than it does in person too
Thanks for that note, yes, I'm wearing a microphone, so it probably amplifies the sound! I didn't think about that.
Hi, nice video!
Can you also use the tineco also as a normal vacuum??
Not this model. It's meant for a fairly small amount of debris on hard surfaces. I did just order a tineco cordless vacuum and will be doing a review on it when it arrives!
@@TheNeurospicyMama nice! I want to buy also a tineco cordless vacuum. The S12 pure one pro ex. I dont know which one you purchased but I will watch your video!
I bought the A11 Hero EX. I have a Dyson for my main upstairs vacuum so I didn't want to spend quite as much money for a second vacuum that I'll mostly be using on downstairs rugs and the stairs themselves. The upright Dyson I have is too cumbersome to navigate to vacuum stairs. I can't wait for this one to arrive so I can see how it compares to a Dyson upright!
@@TheNeurospicyMama yes I want to see that because at first I cant choose between the Dyson and Tineco. So I am waiting for it!
@@thundergirl95.25 just waiting for it to arrive! It wasn't eligible for Amazon prime. I'm "letting" my living room rug get nice and dirty to put it to the test. AKA I don't want to drag my Dyson downstairs. 😂
Can you vacuum the floor without washing it ?
No, it vacuum and mops all at once. You can't turn off the mop feature. Also, if the floor is heavy with debris a quick sweeping would be advised. If I use this twice a week with two dogs and two cats I don't have to sweep. But if I let the hair build up more than that it can clog the machine it seems.
I just got my tineco can’t wait to use it
I hope you love yours as much as I still love mine! 😁 Adulting hard when you love a mop. 😂😂😂
The cheaper model (ifloor) has the self-cleaning function as well :)
Ah good to know, thank you for commenting! I did look at some more comparison and ifloor might be a better buy if you have a smaller space. It has a smaller tank that doesn't alert when it's empty, and it has a shorter battery life. On the flip side, it weighs less so that could be a benefit. The cleaning function is supposedly updated on the S3, with a squeegie to get debris off the roller. Depending on your needs, the base model might be the better buy.
I'm still super happy with the S3 model I bought. Everytime I mop with it, I just marvel over how clean the floors look!
They are not lying when they say empty the tank before storing it away. I made the mistake of running the clean cycle and left the house, completely forgot about it until next use. BOYYYYY, as soon as I turned it on...that smell was disgustingly gross!!
Yeah, I can just imagine it'd get pretty gross quickly! I always rinse and leave it open to air dry.
Is there anyway to turn the voice off?
I don't think so, at least not on this model.
Thank you. Awesome review!
You're welcome, glad I could help! 😁
How often do you clean your floors?
Usually once a week, sometimes a bit longer between uses. Spot clean as needed. A couple days ago I spilled hot bacon grease on my kitchen floor. Yep, this mop got it right up and cleaned itself nicely! So incredibly impressed with it. 😁
Does anyone know if these brushroll work for the floor one s2
On their website it lists "Tineco FLOOR ONE S3/IFLOOR 3/IFLOOR 2" Replacement Brush Roller are all the same. But I'm not sure if the floor one s2 is the same as the IFLOOR 2?
Does it stay connected to the base all the time?
Yes, while it's charging it stays on the base, which will also protect your floor from the wet roller. Does that answer your question?
@@TheNeurospicyMama let’s say it’s full charged should I still leave it there plugged? Do you usually leave yours in the stand plugged? Or do you have unplugged while full charged? Sorry hope I’m making sense ..
@@xoxomonet4852 Yes, I just leave it fully charged plugged in on the stand. I'm not sure if the battery would drain over time if it wasn't plugged in, but I think the design is for it to just stay on the base and plugged in when not in use. Hope that helps!
@@TheNeurospicyMama thank you so much!!!
I am so on the fence right now.. love how to reviewed the Tineno one s3, but I just don’t know what I should get!!! The Tineco, the Bissell crosswave X7 and the Bissellcrosswave HF3!!!! It’s like buy a car!!!!
I have a chow chow and she sheds like crazy. But my only concerns with Tineco Is the small water tanks and the lady being too commanding.
I saw your review for having it over a year and you still love it even after error message that costumer service help you with.
Just got to make a decisions.
Loves your review!!!!!!
I know I'm a researcher too! I looked at all those before deciding. I often get buyers remorse but with this none. Non sponsored, I did buy this with my own money and did the review without any compensation from the company. I was leaning towards Bissell just because of brand recognition, but honestly I think some big brands are resting on their names alone. Smaller companies have to be better to compete. And that's how I feel about this. I have heard the S5 has a bigger tank, but I'm still very pleased with my S3.
Check out VacuumWars on YT! He takes a scientific approach to reviewing vacuums and has a great video on hard floor cleaners
Ok this looks very cool. How wet are your floors after?
Not to bad, slightly damp, and they dry quickly.
@@TheNeurospicyMama that's good to know. I am going to have a look around here and see what we have
Where can i purchase the liquid solution for this, I’m in Australia or where can I purchase online that’s deliverers to Australia?
I'm not sure, does Amazon Australia have it? Your best bet is to contact tineco directly.
Godfreys
Can you use another solution ?
Tineco recommends their solution only. I'm on a fb group of other tineco users and some of them have reported using other solutions and it damaging their mop and other people say it's totally fine. For how expensive the mop is, I'm sticking with the recomended solution.
Nice machine, but it can't get into tight areas like a stick vacuum. I think I'll keep my swifter dust/wet mop. That talking mop would annoy me very quickly. Thanks for a great review.
Thanks for the comment! I find it gets pretty well into tight spaces, and even along edges. It does such a great job of getting pet hair too, I used to use a swifter but it just pushed dog hair around. Granted a swiffer is WAY cheaper, but I do find the Tineco so worth it if it's in your budget.
Edited my comment, because I had a brain blip and thought you were commenting on a different vacuum review video I have. 🙂
very very good review - i need this
Thank you! If you end up buying it, I'd appreciate you using my amazon link. Let me know if you have any questions, I've had it for about 9 months now and I still am in love with this mop. 😍
Thanks this helped me
You're welcome! 😁
You are so lovely,thank you so much!
🤗😁 I'm glad it was useful!
How long have you been using this mop now? Have you had any issues with it so far?
I've been using it for 4 months now. I absolutely am still loving it. It works like a charm, it cleans itself so nicely. This is the best purchase I've made for myself in a long time! (not sponsored, just a happy customer!)
