Russell Hobbs Upright Steam Mop, 1.4kW Power, 380ml Water Tank, 30-Second Heat-up, 15-Minute Run-Time, Sealed Hard Floors, Tiles, Vinyl Flooring, Carpets, Rugs in White & Aqua, RHSM1001-G

Arrived quickly, brand new condition, and a very good price. Does the job for a quick clean, solid enoughand easy to manoeuvre and very effective for such a relatively inexpensive steam mop. Easy to put together tho the instructions are a bit limited but only 3 moving parts so it's a simple case of slotting the handle together & into the base. A full tank takes 1.5 of the jug, don't overfill but max level clearly marked. Takes seconds to heat up, tank lasts about 15 minutes max - need to refill for bigger areas & lead not super long so extension cable sensible. For the price...really good & would recommend.

This was way cheaper than any other steam mop I could find. It was almost TOO cheap and so I nearly didn't buy it thinking that it must be rubbish.It's brilliant, the steam gets up all the stains and bits of the floor and with two young kids, one of them a baby weaning our floors are a gong show.It's super quick to heat up, works with a simple wipe, not having to scrub really hard.Only downsides are that I wish the tank was bigger for water, and I wish the handle was longer for me being tall.But overall it's great.

Very pleased. It’s simple to use (as you would expect) and works equally well on hard floors and carpets. Very good price.

Had this for a few months now and I really like it. Cord isn't crazy long but long enough to do a room at a time. Heats up quickly and cleans floors nicely, have to go over tougher marks a few times and hold the steamer on it for a few seconds. I've washed the pads 20+ times so far I reckon and still washing up nicely

I first bought this steam cleaner in the summer of 2019, with a 2 year guarantee, primarily on the strength of the Russell Hobbs brand name. My first impression was disappointment at how flimsy it was. In fairness, despite everything that follows, it does clean well if you can live with its failings. For context, I bought it to clean the oak flooring in my kitchen and living room once a week. Within a couple of weeks of first using it, the bracket for holding the cable snapped off. After a few months more, the footpad started falling off when the steamer was lifted from the floor, but it carried on working if I 'skated' it over the surface. Then, early summer 2020, the handle snapped off from the stem and it became unusable. I finally lost patience and contacted Russell Hobbs customer service, asking them to implement the guarantee. This took some time as the first Covid lock-down was in place. To say they were ungracious is an understatement; the assumption seemed to be that I was to blame. After emails backwards and forwards, including sending photo's, they grudgingly agreed to provide a replacement - providing I first returned the broken parts for them 'to conduct an investigation'. They then tried to insist that the replacement was a 'gesture of good will' so there would be no warranty on the and when I pointed out once again that I was still less than a year into the guarantee period they were at pains to insist that the new machine would only receive the balance of the first machine's guarantee - so much for their own confidence of the reliability of their product. I started using the new machine - but very gingerly - and again I have to concede that it cleaned the floors well enough. Until, that is, 6 months in, during the 2'nd lock-down, it just stopped working. Plug it in, the operating light comes on, but no steam appears. Technically, we are still well within the guarantee period of the first cleaner, so I suppose that if I wanted to I could start to battle once again with their customer services for a repair or replacement, but I don't have the will to go through it all again. Bottom line is that if they offered me a replacement, I wouldn't have another one of these cleaners even if they paid me. Or any other Russell Hobbs product for that matter. I have bought a new machine from a different manufacturer.

It’s good, does the job, but came with a 1 year guarantee and broke exactly when it ended

I am really pleased with this steam mop. It is light, easy to use and store. I have found the triangle does stay on, surprisingly, as its not fixed. But my rugs don't have a deep pile and so it's easier for the mop to move over the surface. My only suggestion to improve this mop is to be able to see how much water is left instead of finding out when it's run out also perhaps a longer electrical cord. Otherwise a good inexpensive buy.

This is a great value steam mop that is simple to use and lightweight.Out of the box you will need to assemble the mop, which simply clicks together and is quite straightforward. Fill the tank, plug in, switch on and wait around 30 seconds and your away. The mop is ready to use really quickly.My experience of using this on tiles and laminate is mostly positive. The pad picks up surface dirt easily but it struggled with engrained dirt near the skirting boards. This is partly due to the pad not having a deep pile and the steam not quite getting to the outer edge of the mop. It glides about easily but you should not treat it like a hoover. Another review noted that the handle had broken quite easily and I have to say that you can feel it creak in use. As long as it is used forward to back rather than side to side it should last.A full tank allowed me to mop a kitchen, lounge, dining room and I still had enough to give my rug a once over using the carpet glider. I used brita filtered water to prevent limescale.The carpet glider is simply a triangle of plastic that the mop sits on. It does not clip on which is a little frustrating but as you shouldn't steam rugs etc. every day it's only a small inconvenience.You get 2 pads included, so you may want to get a few more if you want a fresh one everyday.I have steamed my rug to kill any bacteria and it seems to work. I have four pugs and my rug can get pretty stinky. The mop has killed the odour without leaving the rug damp.I did not give this mop a full five stars as the power lead is now shorter than earlier models. So, despite it claiming to have a generous 8 metre lead for less unplugging you will still need to unplug to move room to room. It's a real shame as the longer lead made it so much more convenient.A great feature of the mop is the auto cut off when it is left standing upright. Great if you need to break off and do something mid clean.For the money and the ease of use this mop is a definite must have. Not perfect but very close.TIP - buy a set of quality slip on floor shoe mops to dry whilst you steam. Try it, its great fun and easier than using an additional drying mop.
