I bought the Bissell Power Fresh on a whim at Walmart after wanting something better than our Swiffer Wet Jet. Girlfriend was skeptical but I saw a lot of 5 star reviews that didn't seem fake or sponsored so I thought I'd give it a go. Her skepticism didn't last long once she saw how clean the floors were afterwards. If all you're used to is a Swiffer Wet Jet then the Bissell is a huge upgrade. Something I found worth noting though: in the instructions it says to wait 30 seconds after plugging in before selecting the steam level. I found that after selecting a steam level it takes about 30-60 seconds for the steam to fully soak into the mop pad. During this period it feels like the mop is dragging and as the mop pad saturates it became easier to mop and about after a minute I could move the mop as I expected. This was on tile floors and at the max steam setting. I don't see this as a downside because once it gets soaked with steam the mop is absolutely amazing and can cut through any sticky messes with little to no effort. The only other minor complaint is that since the power cable is flat it can be tricky to get the plug to snap onto the rest of the cable when winding it up, to the point where I had to use two hands to get it to snap together. One big positive for me was that I ended up getting it for $20 due to a pricing error on Walmart's part (which had it listed for $80) which is probably the closest I'll get to winning the lottery and I felt like I was stealing when I was taking it to my car. For that price it's a no brainer.

[@kedelbach]

on our second Bissell. First one stopped making steam after about 1.5 years, but may have something to do with adding Fabuloso to the water tank... just using distilled water now in the second one and splashing Fabuloso around the tile floor, still going strong 2.5 years later.

[@nicobsm111saintmichel7]

You are just wasting your money, if it is for the fragrance (I cannot stand the odour of chemicals), you could spray some lemon juice for example with diluted vinegar in a spray bottle. Vinegar neutralises odour and the smell of vinegar goes away when it's evaporated but the lemon scent will pleasantly linger on.

[@kwiggy5091]

When I cleaned houses, the cheap shark steam mops were ESSENTIAL so I was torn between these two. I'm so appreciative for this side by side review because I was nervous to consider the Bissell. I have a crosswave which I actually don't love that I'm looking to replace with a steam mop, and was hesitant to trust Bissell again. Especially given my great last experiences with the shark. Knowing they perform the same but the features of the Bissell meet my needs better was invaluable. Thank you again!

[@VacuumWars]

That is so good to hear. Thank you!

Thanks again for making this review. I went to use this cheap $30 manual spray mop I bought at a drug store for the second time when lo and behold it broke in the same place the last one did. I've been through three manual types in the last 2 years. Your review immediately came to mind so here I am using your video to find it online and buying it to end my cleaning suffering. Long live vacuum wars for being so awesome! I can't wait to clean my place better than ever before.

I thank you so much for all of your hard work on our behalf. I hate making purchasing decisions and with your videos, I do not need to be concerned whether or not I am getting the most bang for my buck. You helped me decide on my vacuum I bought about a year ago and everything you said about it was accurate. I am very, very happy with my purchase!! I also purchased a carpet cleaner based off of your video and it works fantastic. Now it's time for a steam mop. Keep up the good work.

[@cindirodriguez413]

Thank you for doing this…it’s super helpful. I purchased my vacuum earlier this year and now I’m going to buy this steam mop based on your research…2 thumbs up!

Pad flip!!! WOw...that alone may override the other Bissel plus points..The self stand is important, but ANYTHING to not need to replace the pad for as long as possible! Nice review!

Do the tanks have the same volume when full? Maybe the Shark just started out with less water in the first place

I was going back and forth with which steam mop to go with. I ended up choosing a Bissell 1940 for 47.00 on eBay and it says it is in mint condition, and comes with 2 replacement mop pads plus has the scent discs that everyone mentioned in the reviews. I’m so glad I chose the Bissell, because I didn’t want to have to pump the mop for steam. Your video was so helpful.

[@VacuumWars]

[@rxonmymind8362]

Just purchased the shark plug in model and what really gravitated me towards it despite it's short comings was it's dual sided fabric. Longer and farther clean, and allows one to use one side as a mop while the other as a "rinse" option. A lot of draw backs for sure and less convenient but for $40 new I couldn't pass it up. Also there is a LOT of steam coming off it. Great review. Thanks.

[@VacuumWars]

Glad you are happy with it!

[@nicksurfs1]

Bissell is my go to brand as well because of their durability. I’ve tried shark and really wanted to love it. They’ve got great marketing that got me excited for the product but they end up being disposable. You can usually find replacement parts for bissell so if something happens, you can keep your machine going.

[@tracyovard4617]

This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!!!

[@VacuumWars]

Glad it was helpful!

[@angiem1124]

I'm loving your videos. I'm looking for a steam mop and a cordless vacuum and you're making it so much easier to choose. I obsess over choosing the best products for my needs so I don't have regrets later. I do think it's a big advantage to having the flippable mop head - I would go over an area with one side, and then with the 2nd side each time, therefore picking up more dirt. Each time I start a new area I'd use the 1st side again. Too bad because the Bissell seems so much better in too many ways to not get it just because of one feature

[@JustAGrl007]

Thank you! I was literally sitting up here trying to figure out which one to get because it’s only a $10 difference with prime day but I’m going for the bissell

[@VacuumWars]

We hope you enjoy it!

I almost bought the Crosswave but went with the Powerfresh since it was on sale for $72 and had the grout scrubber. I'll be using it for the first time this weekend. 😊

[@sharonmenzel7791]

I bought the bissel 1940 steam mop a few years ago and only used it maybe 5 times and it started to leak from behind. After some research it seams that the old and newer versions do the same after only a few uses. I loved my mop and now I have to look for another one, cause why by one if they are having problems leaking, so be carefull

[@CShannon1991]

I’m still leaning towards that Shark Steam Pocket Mop. But the Professional type model. Thanks for the comparison review.

[@VAYT1]

[@astralcowboy1345]

I got the shark lift away pro steam mop with all the extra attachments and I LOVE it!

[@rxonmymind8362]

I just bought one. What appealed to me was the dual side of fabric which allows one to mop on one side while "rinsing" on the other. I also like the fact with an extra fabric the dual sided mop can take you a longer distance without mopping with a dirty fabric. Just flip it over. There is a lot of inconvenience with this mop but for me the pros were obvious. All these steam mops with the single sided mop fabric just did not appeal to me. It's like taking a dirty rag and washing the car with it.

[@MiniCuis4u]

Boy am I glad I watched your review first. I've been trying to decide which mop to get for about 7 months. I'm a procrastinatorwhat can I say.🤷🏽‍♀️😄 Thanks for sharing!👍🏼🥰

[@melvinnclarissamartin3866]

Just one quick quick remind me to everybody that does own a steam map it says directly in the instructions Not to use your tap water for them you will end up destroying your steam mop if you do. I learned this the hard way. You're supposed to use Distilled water.

[@doesnotFempute]

that's good to know! we have a countertop gravity filter for our extra hard well water. I'll be using that for my future steam mop

[@omCi]

In my opinion the biggest upgrade to vacuum cleaners in last 30 years was removal of the cord. Now that stick vacuums are so great I’m not getting a mop with a cord. They need to hurry up and figure out how to make steam with battery power. :)

[@joannsilva525]

Thanks, you helped me with my decision of which steam mop to order (bissell)

[@VacuumWars]

Happy to have helped! Thank you for watching!

[@resigningstars]

I've watched ALL of your videos in your channel, they're very informative. A few months ago I got the Shark Steam and Scrub, it's their new model. And it really sucks, it's bad. It didn't absorb dirt, it just like a floating steamer not doing anything. So I returned and then saw the Bissell Crossave Pet Pro. I saw it in commercial in 2017 and I saw it in one of your videos so I'm like I'll give that a try. And OMG I'm in love with the Crosswave so easy to use, leaves my home smelling fresh! My floors feel like new after they're mopped, your videos helped me choose the Crosswave and I can't thank you enough.

[@VacuumWars]

Hey thanks and great to hear you are happy with that Crosswave!

[@nonelost1]

Good video as always! I appreciate your giving out the model numbers. I just found a Bissell 1940A(2018) with its carpetglider (minus microfiber pads) in the dumpster today. It heats up with no apparent leaks. So if I don't find any microfiber pads in the dumpster, I'll have to go out and get me some to fully test it. If it works, I'll make a video(keywords "Marshall Curtis" and "vacuums") of it and keep it. Otherwise I'll just take it to Goodwill for scrap.

[@aplanefliesabove]

I was gifted the Shark S1000 series. Purchased from Walmart for about $40. Plugged it in and mopped my small BR after dusting and mopping with a WetJet. The Steam mop picked up alot more built in dirt which was nice. It glided pretty well once the steam was activated. I didn't see any extra tools in the box. Can stand up on its on and is pretty lite even when loaded with water. I have 2 cats so I needed this tool even though it's one of the cheaper models. Works well for what I need. Floors dried pretty quickly and I will definitely use this 2x a week to keep my floors sanitized and clean.

[@mayfid]

Wow! That helped me decide on a steam mop. Thanks!

[@stacielawrence88]

Some of the advantages of the Bissell are now on the newer models of the shark. Examples are but not all. The newer shark has a longer cord now 22" I believe, you do not have to use a pump action on the handle,it now has a removable water tank, it has three steam settings, and an on off switch. The shark has a two sided mop so you have to change the pad as often. However it does not stand on its own.

[@RandomUsernameGenerator]

Thank you for your helpful comment

[@bluebayeux]

This was very helpful, thank you! Def getting the Bissell because I really like that it stands on it's own. Still looking for a mid-range cordless. The one you recommend has a top reviewer saying that the unit shocks people. I think by far your reviews are the best so I'll just keep combing through to find an alternative.

[@VacuumWars]

I wonder how that will work out. It hasn't shocked me.

[@ArbokLover1618]

I just got a Bissell Power Fresh and decision is final that I’m keeping it. I also have three Shark Steam mops, two Shark vac then steam units, and an s1000. I also picked up an Oreck Steam it but it needs a seal.

Great vid! I’ve always been a shark guy, using one model for years 😂 I hate change.

The self standing thing is huge, as well as the detachable water ‘tank’. Thank you!

[@jpay]

I may be mistaken, but transferring water over in 2:45 doesn't compare how much water is *used*, only how water much is *left*. Different sized containers could start with different amounts of water.

[@ACitizenOfOurWorld]

At 2:10 I was hoping he would have put the same volume of water into each tank rather than filling each to their tanks "to the top"

[@LiveType]

That's why you weigh them before and after.

[@ACitizenOfOurWorld]

Right. I went back to 2:10 and was hoping he would have put a measured volume of water into each. Instead he just filled each of to their tanks "to the top"which only makes sense if the tanks have equal capacity - something we don't know yet.

[@NootNoot947]

[@rachelmills1210]

Do these types of mops require you to apply some pressure/scrubbing force like a normal mop would, or do they do the job by simply swiping back and forth (more like a vaccuming motion)? I have some injuries which keep me from pressing downward, but I can swipe back and forth (like a vacuum). I hope this makes sense!

First Day using my Shark and I can tell you all the features you mentioned the Bissell has, I wished I would have left this Shark on Amazon. It’s too difficult for no reason. Pumping and pouring the water in the tank is so overrated. After this one breaks down, I’ll for sure explore the Bissell.

[@carebearmcgee]

Just bought a Power Fresh Steam "Deluxe" after using a Shark for years (finally broke) and its steam power seems incredibly low. The water does not dry as fast because the steam doesn't seem to be as hot- was disappointed that it only has 2 steam settings vs. the standard version's 3 settings. Perhaps it would be better to switch?

[@andrewjackson2924]

Thank you for making the right decision

[@ninersgiantswarriorsallday9553]

There are so many steam mop options on Amazon. Do you mind doing an updated steam mop showdown with multiple mops?

I live in the country and have three dogs and several cats. They come in and out of the house all the time and I have all tile and laminate floor in the house. I'm a mop fanatic and I have both of these mops. My housekeeper and I argue over mopping lol. I always wet the pads and mop. She says you were supposed to use them dry. I understand you can use them dry but to me the wet pad in combination with the steam really cleans the floor because I don't think how just steam and a dry pad would really work. What is your opinion on a dry pad versus a pre-soaked wet pad?

[@l.johnson2015]

I know you didnt ask me but I agree with you. I have 6 indoor cats. I actually throw down some hot water and a lil baking soda and some Clorox or Lysol sanitizer on my laminate floors. I actually sweep 1st, then use a wet pad like a swifter thing to pick up all the cat hairs and paw prints. Then I lastly use my shark steam mop. I also noticed washing the shark pads come out much more cleaner with Lysol sanitizer vs just using bleach and detergent.

if you had to choose between the bissell steam mop, and the bissell crosswave pet which would you choose? I have the shark genious steam mop, and the bissell steamop. I just dont like using them on my 1950s oak floor. so I just bought the crosswave, but I have some concerns about how much moisture/streaking is left behind. I have seen some paper towel tests afterwords that have me double thinking the crosswave. I have the ocedar spin mop, and spray mop as well, but i swear, they dont clean that well.

When I put the Bissell in my Amazon cart, all these things pop up, do you recommend the demineralized water (2 different ones pop up) and several brands of extra pads. Please share your thoughts, I appreciate all that you do for us! 👍

[@Aaron-gi1xg]

Normal water (like from your tap or from a regular bottle of water) has minerals in it. If you use this water in a steam mop, mineral deposits will build up inside the mop and it won't work as well. So yes, the demineralised water is probably a good idea however, you might want to make sure they aren't overcharging for it. Steam mop manufacturers highly reccomend using distilled water as it has no minerals and will provide optimal performance for the mop. Check around stores or online to see if the distilled water works out cheaper than the (branded?) Demineralised water. I think having extra pads might be useful so you can always have a fresh one ready to use while others are being washed but that will depend on how much you use the mop. I'm not too sure about the different branded pads incase they don't fit etc.

[@Aaron-gi1xg]

@@Oceangirl_505 Maybe you could keep the steam mop stored without a pad on it and keep a bag of freshly cleaned pads beside it so you can take another one out for each use. After using it you could maybe handwash the pads or let them soak in some hot water and antibacterial solution/Dettol or bleach (depending on their material) so they would be clean/clean enough to put in the washing machine. Then just put the clean pads back into the bag once dry so it's ready to use again!

We purchased a Bissell Power Fresh approximately 6 weeks ago. It stopped creating steam last week. We used tap water because that is what the HSN presentation told us to do. However, does the Bissell actually require distilled water? Thank you for your reply.

You need to use Distilled Water or Filtered Water to use with the steam mop. Tap Water can cause buildup of salts, which can clog the pipes.
