This is the same quality as the pad that originally came with the steam cleaner. They fit perfectly, are very durable and slide easily over tiles. After reading all the mixed reviews about aftermarket pads (poor fit, poor gliding on the floor, flimsy material, etc.) I decided I didn't want to save a few bucks just to risk getting pads that are difficult to use. I'm glad I splurged and bought the right ones because we use our steam cleaner all the time. You get what you pay for.
