I have a house full of hardwood floors, with a bit of tile. I've researched and read reviews on steam mops until my eyes glazed over and I gave up. I came across the Electrolux JetMaxx but it had no reviews. Every other steam mop had an almost equal number of lovers/haters. I knew what I wanted. Long cord, hold enough water to do some decent cleaning, multiple steam holes, various levels of steam. Although the JetMaxx had no reviews yet, I felt comfortable ordering from Amazon (BuyHappier.com)because of their excellent return policy. Also, buyhappier.com extends the 2 yr manufacturer warranty to 3 years free! Ok, so it arrived, manufacturer box packed inside bigger box with packaging, good job! Very easy to snap together and seems sturdy. Holds 24 oz of water, I used distilled because I don't want to mess with mineral deposits that kill it! Make sure reservoir lid is on tight, and DON'T overfill. It leaked at first till I really read the directions well. Plugged it in, and it very quickly (a minute?) heated up and was ready to use. It has 3 settings, first is for hardwood, 2nd for laminate/vinyl, 3rd for tiles. I started on 1, but it had been a while since I mopped and floors were a mess. I used level 2 instead. It made plenty of steam at this level without soaking the floors. On the dirtiest places, I had to go slow and repeat over the area quite a bit, it did finally get those bad messes up (small drip messes, dog paw prints...). It's not like using a wet mop with chemicals and scrubbing. You need to go slow and take your time. I was VERY impressed with how clean the floor was, and it dried very quickly, completely dry in about 5 minutes, and we keep our house cold! Now that the floors are clean, I imagine I will be able to use level 1 with more success. After my 18X15 bedroom floor, very little water had been used, lots left to do more floors! Keep in mind that you first need to vacuum the floors before steam moping.Pros... 6 steam holes across length of steam head. generous water tank 30 ft cord, one of the longest? 3 levels of steam adjustment 2 year warranty (3 from buyhappy.com) seems very sturdy, not a lightweight, has some heft to it, but didn't have to struggle to use. slim steam head went under furniture edges with ease. Lays close to floor for cleaning under beds.Cons... the "cord holder" on the back of unit doesn't really hold all the cord, and the clips seem like they could snap, we shall see. Not a huge con for me. The cleaning cloth was still wet the next morning after sink cleaning it, but hey, that means it's thick!I'm not going to put the cloths in the dryer, don't want to chance them shrinking, as they are the exact size for the steam head. I don't want the plastic head contacting my wood floors if they did shrink.This is one of the more costly steam mops, but I believe you get what you pay for. So far, I am very pleased with my purchase. I will update in the future if I feel like I need to downgrade from 5 stars. I took a chance buying without ANY reviews for this, but I did feel like at least I wasn't going to be disuaded by negative reviews from people who didn't do their research, or abused their own products. This is a steam mop, they need to be pushed slow, and really dirty spots or stains are going to take some patience. You are using WATER and no chemicals, so give the steam some time to do it's job!
