I've been searching for the Holy Grail of kitchen floor cleaners, and gone through a bevy of moppers and sweepers, from an actual mop and pail, to stick vacuum cleaners, to all in one units (sweep and mop) to the Bissell type hard floor cleaners.
After buying wayyyyy too many of these appliances (I think I might have a problem), I think I have found the perfect system, and it includes this steam mop (not necessarily THIS model, but this is the one I chose). More on that later, and on to this specific steam mop.
Overall, this is an average to good unit. Does what it says, and is not too expensive. I wanted to try a steam mop after recently giving up on my Bissell hard floor cleaner (the rolling brush kind that sound like a jet engine when you start them up, and surprisingly do almost nothing in terms of cleaning - don't think they even make those any more...no wonder)
PROS:
- HOT. Heats to 212º, some other steam mops I looked at were in the low hundreds! (credit to the steam mop review queen for showing the temps that each steam mop achieved!)
- CHEAP. I paid around $80 after cashback, and included the carpet attachment and two pads.
- CARPET ATTACHMENT. LOVE this. Use it all the time, and it really works well. The primary reason I bought this Haan over the Eureka.
- EASY. Ease of use so important for regular cleaning. The Bissell (hard floor cleaner, not steam mop) I used before was so heavy and a pain to "set up" that I didn't "mop" as often as I should have. This Haan is sooo simple and lightweight, you can pull it out any time and be up and running VERY quickly. I think this is the best feature of steam mops versus other mopping solutions.
- CLEANS/SANITIZES. Unlike the Shark, and a couple of others, which has a very low steam temp (around 100º less than this Haan), you don't have to go so slow in order to really sanitize, that it takes you 4 hours to do a small kitchen.
CONS:
- HEAD DOESN'T SWIVEL. Would be nice if the head was able to get in small nooks and crannies better, but it doesn't. This is one of those "nice to haves" things, but definitely not a deal breaker
- DOESN'T STAND UP ON ITS OWN. This COULD be a problem with my particular unit, since I have not read others posting about it. But it seems the very cheap mechanism they used to kind of "catch" the long handle when you want to just leave it standing upright, does not work, and often falls down (slams down) and drives me crazy. So I pretty much have to lean it against the wall any time I want to refill, or stop and move something. Much more annoying that it seems like it would be.
- CHEAP CONSTRUCTION. Not planning to use this as a battering ram, so I don't foresee a lot of damage, but this is made very cheaply. On the other hand, they were likely trying to design to be lightweight as well, so hard to say here. You could probably make it better, and still be light, but I bet would cost 30% more as well. I'm actually ok with the cheap feel as long as it doesn't break in a year or two.
- NO CLEAN SMELL AFTER MOPPING. Since you can't/shouldn't use cleaning solution with this, which is generally scented, you definitely won't take a whiff after cleaning your kitchen and say "AHHHHH". This is actually something that my previous Bissell hard floor cleaner was GREAT at (or at least their cleaning solution). It used an excellent liquid that got the scent JUST right in my opinion...not at all overwhelming, but a very clean scent. Very subtle in fact, but there (not perfumy at all). This is just something you adjust to I guess, knowing that you don't NEED those chemicals with one of these bad boys.
If given the option, I would probably give this 3.5 stars, because I am happy with it, and it's probably slightly above the average steam mop, mostly because of the temps it reaches. Would definitely re-buy this, as well as recommend to friends. If I had not wanted a carpet attachment (great for area rugs!), I would have bought the Eureka EnviroSteamer. As it is, very happy with this purchase.

I have read a review by an amazon customer about this product and other products designed to steam clean floors, therefore decided to pick this brand. I was very happy with the product so far.

I do not believe this kills germs. I haven't had time to figure out a way to test the temp yet. Another reviewer said you need to lean into the Haan a bit. That's an understatement. It took major effort to get the dirt off my vinyl floors. I bought this because I have back and neck problems and don't want to hurt myself. It hurts. And, I still have to mop or get on my hands and knees because this thing does not fit under the edge of my kitchen or bathroom cabinets. When I try to get as close as possible, it bumps and scratches my maple cabinets.
Total waste of money.
I need a steam cleaner to clean my floors and kill germs with no chemicals. No way this does the job.

I read various other reviews before deciding on the Haan steam mop... Overall it feels sturdy and well built with 17 position adjustable metal handle that can be adjusted with just a push of of the button. great as my 1 and 3 year olds love to "help" clean the house after messing it up!
The selling points for this model over the others was the row of 15 multiple steam jets as opposed to a single port like the shark. The ultra microfiber pads which are thick and sturdy, seem to absorb moisture and pick up dirt very well, easy to push on multiple surfaces, easy on and off with velcro style attachments, no problems with washing them so far... I did buy a couple extra packs of pads as i use it daily with my kids and a wood laminate floor throughout a majority of the house. the pads have never left any wet "puddles" of standing water even after being left in one place for an extended period of time... excessive wetness was a noted problem with several other steamers. I feel a lot of consideration should be given to the quality and type of material used to make the cleaning pad as this it was is really doing all the work and takes the most abuse. Durability is a key issue for me...
I am able to fill mine with about 13oz of water. can do about 800sq ft depending on how dirty the kids have made the floor for me to clean. usually using just one cleaning pad.
I tested it as shown in the image for water temp. as water boils at lower temp at altitude, I would expect a high reading at sea level but I got about 194 F temp at multiple locations under the mop with or without the pad on... Haan claims 212+ F steam... However it still seems to clean very well at its current temp...
As for weight with a full tank of water using a digital luggage scale I get 5.1 lbs.
The Haan also has one of the lowest engery usages of any steamer at 800 Watts. it takes about 1 1/2-2 minutes to start steaming and steams constantly while on. No trigger to pump or hold...
I have not used the sanitizer tray for the carpets yet but will update if and when I do use it.
Negatives...
Really the only negatives I see with this are:
1. The power cord is to short.. however there is plenty of space where the cord stores on the steamer to add an extension cord and leave it permanently connected..
2. not that great for getting at the edges as the steam jets run in a strip across the center of the machine so the front and rear of the machine and pad don't get direct steam... Probably why it seems to hold dirt and water well. only the middle third of the pad from side to side is seeing direct steam and the other areas are scrubbing and absorbing. I will add a picture to illustrate..
3. Like just about every other steamer I would like it to hold more water... a gallon at a time would be nice...
