Shark HydroVac MessMaster Wet Dry Vacuum & Mop Combo, AW261

My house has ALL wood, bamboo and tile floors. I've said over the years that I wanted a maid to come in and just do the floors. A pregnancy injury left me in pain most of the time and floors are really hard for me. I started with a robot vacuume that I love love love. Next I wanted an electric mop. After reading all the reviews, the corded plug in Shark Hydrovac is what I bought. I am reading poor reviews here under this product, but they continually mention the weak battery. My review is for the corded plug in vacuume not a cordless model. My floors have never been cleaner. I used the vacuume over the course of two days and about 10 hours for an initial clean. The bamboo floor is only six years old and sealed. That floor was so easy to clean, although I still cleaned it three times over since it hasn't been cleaned in over six months. The kitchen tile was super easy too, although it doesn't reach the grout, my daughter is young and took on the challenge to clean the grout with a nifty grout brush I found. The hard part to clean is the 30 year old wood floors with areas where the seal is worn off. We bought the house from someone who's dogs had scratched the floors and wore off the finish in high traffic areas. This was the hard part to clean the first time. I did the same as with the bamboo and cleaned it the times over. After it was done, I realized there were areas of built up dirt on the unsealed areas I had not been getting clean. I decided to go back and clean this area by hand with a scrub brush to get it where I wanted. After that the floors have been a snap to keep clean. I've put in about 20 hours with the vacuume so far and have had zero problems. Some reviews say you can't vacuume and mop together. I didn't even try that. I vacuume with the robot first, then mop. I don't want to risk scratching the floor with a gritty mop. It is super easy to clean. The clean tank chines right out with the push of a button. The dirty tank is the same way. I dump it in the sink, rinse it and either use it again or put it on a towel to drain and dry. There is a sponge on the filter that I rinse and squeeze and put on the towel to dry. The beater bar comes out easily. I rinse under the faucet in the kitchen sink and squeeze by grabbing the bar and turning it around with the other hand. Again, I either put it back on the mop to keep cleaning or leave it on its end to dry on the towel. The vacuume without the beater bar and without the dirty tank, has a very short tube between the two that cleans easily with a bottle brush that is not included, but I already own it. All these parts are removable and replaceable with one hand. I find it easy to use, easy to empty the dirty tank and easy to refill the clean tank. The mop has a self clean feature that works pretty well, but I found that it is easy enough to clean it the way I described above and decided that is rather care for it myself and allow the parts to all dry completely. I've had zero issues with mold or a moldy smell. My floors are cleaner than they have been in years and are easy to maintain after the initial clean I have them. Note, I have a corgi dog that sheds all year. The robot vacuume and the Shark mop have changed my life. I don't leave the house covered in fur anymore. Once a week I vacuume and mop, or one other day in between if we are all off work for holidays and tracking more dust and dirt. Everyone in the house is impressed with his easily the floor is kept in a very clean and neat state. Along with the robot vacuume, this mop is the best investment I've made in householt cleaning tools,ever.

I have both ceramic tile and wood flooring in my home. I have tried all sorts of mops over years, but all were very disappointing in their results. I would end up having to get down on my hands and knees to scrub the floors. At my age, that is painful and takes forever. The Shark Genius Steam Pocket Mop changed all of that. It does a great job. It doesn't leak, It fits into tight spaces, the blasts of steam lift off stubborn stains and spills. The mop head cloths are easily removed and can be dropped into the washer and dryer. You can even buy extra mop head cloths so you don't run out when doing the whole house. Other features include a long cord, mop heads which can be easily switched or removed, and it hardly takes more space in a closet than a broom does.

I absolutely love this machine! I have used a shark vacuum for many years, and every time we do a construction project in our house, I kill one and I go back and buy another one immediately! A friend of mine came by with her new shark Hydro vac to show me how it worked on our laminate floors, I was amazed by the results. I don’t mind vacuuming my area rugs, but I absolutely hate to sweep and mop ….but…. I have a black lab and a large house cat and they leave a lot of fur and dander all over the house. I would not recommend using this Hydro vac to vacuum area rugs, but it works really well to vacuum and mop the laminate floors. After vacuuming, I did use it to freshen up my area rugs, and it worked very well. However, when I cleaned the bottom, dirty water container, there was a large amount of hair that had to be cleaned out, and it took several minutes. I would recommend vacuuming first. I hate to mop, but this is an absolute joy to work with. You simply fill up the water container with some cleaning liquid and warm water and off you go. Mine did not work the first time I used it, I could not get the water to go through and get the brush to roll. After watching a Google video on troubleshooting, I found one that was very explicit about taking a paper clip and poking it through the hole at the very bottom of the water container. This worked perfectly, once I poked that hole completely, the Hydro vac started working immediately and left my floors very clean, almost completely dry and smelling like a dream. I don’t think my house has ever been so clean since we moved in seven years ago. It came with a good charge, but I did charge it for the recommended four hours before use. We have a small house, only about 800 ft.² and it can very easily clean our entire house on one charge. I absolutely love it, and would highly recommend it. I have been looking at this for a couple years, I’m so glad I finally purchased it! It is very easy to maneuver under and around any furniture. It stops working as soon as the water container is empty, and you simply clean and dump out the bottom container and you’re off and running again very quickly. And it has great suction power so it leaves. The floor is almost completely dry and I don’t have to keep the dog and cat and Husband outside for 20 minutes.

So a little about our house: we foster cats with special Needs as well as have our own special needs babies. We have one that can’t make it a day without leaving us stomach contents and one that leaves us puddles. I was tired of cleaning this by hand and I went through countless mops, steam mops, old school mops etc. I love my shark vacuum so I thought why not. We have stained concrete floors too. Pros: It is easy to maneuver all over the house. The suction power is awesome and it’s super light weight with plenty of cord to get around. It does exactly what I bought it for, it can handle large debris and easily mops up liquids. The tank size is great for us perfect size. Easy to use, and it’s actually not as loud as I had imagined it was going to be. Parts are easy to access to clean. Cons: The amount of clean up on the actual machine is mind numbing! I mean yeah great sucking power but what it does is sucks it to the entry of the vacuum head and not all the way in. So be prepared to clean that a lot. I mean a lot a lot. With cat litter it tends to make a clay and clump right there at the entry to the sucking point so beware. The self cleaning feature is a joke, maybe good between like room to room but it won’t do for end of day. You have to take it a part each time and clean it before you put it away. The tray it comes with gets so dirty from the self cleaning you’ll have to clean the tray out constantly. Not great with pet hair, it doesn’t suck it up but rather spins it around the brush and clumps there to stay. Not great for stuck on messes, you just kind of have to let it pre soak then attack it. The carpet mode vs regular mode doesn’t make a difference. THE BIGGEST CON OF ALL: No edge cleaning! I mean this thing leaves a good inch to each side it can’t get no matter what you do. It’s so annoying cause not matter what you do your still gonna need to get down there with a mop rag or something to clean next to the baseboard oven refrigerator whatever it is. The no clean area is almost to the point of unacceptable it’s so large of an area to me. So don’t throw away that mop just yet. Advise: it will not replace your vacuum or mop completely but it will help with everyday cleaning if you don’t mind cleaning the machine. Buy some extra brushrollers and filters it will make things easier. Happy with it : yes Wish I would have tried a BISSELL first : yes but going to keep it anyway.

Great product!! I only buy shark products and this model cleans super well and not hard to use and clean afterwards

Hands down the best out of three I purchased. I returned a Tineco and a very expensive Bissell before purchasing this Shark. It has great suction. It appears to have a small clean water tank but it doesn't use a lot of water. With a little extra effort you can use the boost to help lift and clean the tough spots. 100% recommend!

I have had this Hydro vac for a few months now and this is my honest review. I read all the other reviews and took them into consideration and frankly, I think most of the things people are complaining about are pretty silly. We have two cats and hard floors in our downstairs. We use this item twice a week to do the floors. I would highly recommend this product. It picks up most debris on the floor aside from a few larger things like big leaves. It’s amazing how dirty the floors get even with cleaning them twice a week. The product is very easy to use. I love the swivel feature. No it doesn’t clean right up to the baseboards. There’s about an a half inch gap but that being said I would much rather have to get out my Rubbermaid reveal dust mop, and do along the baseboards once a week then to have to drag out the vacuum twice a week. Someone also said that it leaves the floor damp well yeah so does mopping. It’s not intended to completely dry the floors they still need about a minute to dry after using the Hydro vac. Another reviewer said that it’s loud it’s not really loud. It’s actually much quieter than an actual vacuum, but it does have a motor so yes it’s going to make noise. Another reviewer complained because they have multiple dogs and multiple cats and said that it doesn’t clean up the pet hair. I can’t really speak on that, but I would say if you have a lot of animal fur in your house you should definitely get a robot vac to handle the fur. This item is not intended for that purpose. All in all I highly I really like this product. I have not experienced any of the issues that other reviewers mentioned. We run the clean cycle after every use and rinse out the roller. I take a damp cloth and wipe any residue from where the roller sits after the clean cycle is ran.

I've owned this for just over 6 months and have used it near daily so I figure its worth sharing my thoughts. Pros: It's convenient (kinda... explained in the cons) If you spill something, this can make quick work of the clean-up. The fact that it sucks up the mess while spraying cleaning solution means there is usually no leftover residue after a few slow passes. It can handle both wet and dry spills pretty efficiently. It also handles light duty daily maintenance cleaning tasks pretty well. It combines the jobs of a broom and a mop which can save time. Cons: The reason I said "kinda" for convenience is because you need to disassemble and clean it very thoroughly after every single use. The "self cleaning" function is absolutely useless so don't even bother using it. If you use it even for the smallest task, and do not completely clean it after use, it will stink up your whole house the next time you use it. It doesn't handle dust bunnies/ pet hair very well. Even small amounts. It tends clump up in the main tube and reduce suction effectiveness. The roller doesn't provide any significant cleaning power. For any small spots of sticky/dried material, you're better off just scrubbing and wiping up with a rag. You'll spend way too much time going over the same area with this otherwise. The front facing LED lights began flickering after the first 2-3 months and then completely stopped working shortly after that. The vacuum will often shut off saying the dirty water tank is full when it is nowhere near the fill line and won't turn back on until you have dumped and rinsed out the tank. Overall, I'd say that for light duty use, this can still be convenient and helpful, but I feel like there are other options out there that might do a much better job.

Broke after 4 times uses, fake and dis-honest seller خربت بعد اربع مرات استخدام والبائع غير امين ورافضين يبدلوها او يصلحوها

El primer día que lo use no me pareció tan increíble como decían las comentarios, luego al día siguiente le di una segunda oportunidad y así sucesivamente me di cuenta que fue la mejor compra que hice en el 2021... el piso lo deja perfecto, no pule pero el brillo que se ve no tiene comparación a cuando lo haces con jerga. Me encanta que solo uso poca agua y no uso más líquidos químicos. Mi esposo dice que siente hasta la diferencia cuando anda descalzo e incluso nuestras plantas de los pies ya no quedan tan sucias como antes. Diario lo uso y hasta ahora lo amo. Todo mundo debería tener uno! Llegó antes de tiempo!

Beim Waschen bleibt zu viel Wasser zurück.Das Kabel der Pumpe ist nicht für Europa ausgelegt; ich musste einen Adapter kaufen.

This product is not suitable for EU with 230V. This vacuum is 120v. I cannot give it any rating as I was not able to use it.
