Review on BISSELL PowerFresh Steam Mop Pads (2 pack) with Fragrance Discs (4 count), Model 5938 by Allan Duman

Handy little attachments for Bissell steam mop

Overall I am very happy with my new Bissell steam mop. I knew I was going to run out of pads fast (hello? Big family and a menagerie of pets!) so I decided to order extra mop pads from the start. I even like the one with the cleaning zigzags (see above) but both are functional for my needs. There are a few minor notes/nuisances though: Firstly, these little scent discs are good enough, but they're pretty much pointless if you have a lot of messing and cleaning going on. After the first wash, the smell went away and they became crumbly. I've tried taking them out before washing, but they really are "once in, never out". unless of course you're trying to cram 4 pieces in. Second, the Microban part might be good for those who only do a lot of small touch-ups, but for me and my team, the pads are one and the same. After I do the floor, the carpet is so dirty that I have to take it off and wash it. I doubt Microban will survive the bleach wash I've put it through, but believe me it's for the best. After all, some pads want to roll under the vacuum cleaner from the front when you push the mop forward across the floor. I found that the most annoying. I understand that the tab is easy to detach to keep my hands clean, but I want it to stay on the mop until I'm done with the floor.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic operation
