On board hose and crevice tools. Exclusive Risor Visot pivots for cleaning vertical surfaces such as stair risers. 20' power cord. Weighs 5-1/2 lbs. Hand-held but very powerful, this Eureka model eliminates the hassle of lugging around a full-size vacuum for cleaning car upholstery, sofas, and carpeted stairs. A long 20-foot cord (which wraps for storage) provides good reach, as does the deluxe hose that stretches to three times its length.

And, with two motors, one to power the revolving brush and one for suction, the 5. 5 amp vacuum cleans deeply. [+]
One of Eureka's innovations is the Riser Visor, a clear plastic cover that stays down for cleaning horizontal surfaces and flips up so the revolving brush can reach the vertical carpet on stair risers. There's no bag to change, just a filter and clear plastic dust cup to shake out when necessary. -Ann Bieri. |

Bissell 1867A Dimentions: 6 x 11 x 42.25 inches Weight: 9.17 pounds List Price: $99.99 Price: $78.88

Key features Bissell 1867A
- Includes two washable and reusable microfiber mop pads, an internal water filter, and quick-release cord wrap
- Provides an all-natural deep clean without chemicals, fumes, or residues
- Upright electric mop cleans hard-floor surfaces using steam only
- 360-degree swivel mop head cleans hard-to-reach places
- Measures 6 by 11 by 45-1/4 inches; 1-year limited warranty
- Model: Bissell 1867-7 Steam Mop Hard-Floor Cleaner, Green Tea
Review Bissell 1867-7 Steam Mop Hard-Floor Cleaner, Green Tea / Bissell 1867A:Bissell, Steam Mop, Hard Floor Cleaner, 100% Chemical Free Cleaning, Safe & Effective, Ready To Use With Water Only, Environmentally Friendly, 360 Degree Swivel Head, Washable Microfiber Mop Pads, Quick Release Cord Wrap, Slim, Lightweight Design. Ideal for the chemically sensitive or those with small children, the Bissell Steam Mop deep-cleans hard-surface floors using the power of pure water alone. No harsh (or expensive) cleaners means no fumes or residues to irritate lungs or muddy delicate finishes, while the use of hot steam rather than buckets of water leaves floors dry in just seconds. Heated and ready to use in 30 seconds, the remarkably quiet mechanism works something like an iron: steam is dispensed on demand, rather than continuously, by pressing the trigger while passing the mop over the floor. Hot steam easily removes hardened and sticky gunk, especially if the mop sits over the mess for a few seconds. (Leave it in place 15 seconds to actually sanitize the cleaning surface. ) The machine steams for approximately 15 minutes before the tank needs to be refilled, but there's no lag once you refill it. The Steam Mop's low-profile 360-degree swiveling head accesses hard-to-reach nooks and crannies, like under kitchen cabinets, while its compact profile stores easily in small spaces. Other thoughtful design touches include a quick-release cord wrap and easy-carry handle, as well as a built-in water filter to protect from the minerals and impurities in hard water. (An indicator lets users know when the filter need to be replaced. [+]
) Durable, reusable microfiber pads are safe on all sealed hard surfaces and clean up nicely in the washing machine, making them more environmentally friendly than disposable options. Measuring 6 by 11 by 45-1/2 inches, the Bissell Steam Mop weighs less than 7 pounds and is covered by a one-year limited warranty. -Mary Park. |
