Hard floors, upright · review
An 1800 W steam cleaner with a 1.5-liter tank, 28 accessories and an adjustable steam dial on the handle.
Where this ends up Twenty-eight accessories, the most on this shelf, with an adjustable steam dial on the handle and a trigger lock. It then publishes 1800 watts and a 1.5-liter tank and not one figure for temperature, pressure, heat-up time or runtime.
Phueut 28 · Schenley 21 · Keenstone 17 · NEWBULIG 14 · HJGJYWLQ “multiple”, no count · Shark S8001 and S8201 four pads each · Shark S1000 and S3501 two pads each
The four Sharks are in a different business: they are floor machines with pads and no attachments. This shelf really holds two tools, and this is the biggest of the canisters.
What a canister does that a mop cannot: the hob, the oven, the grout, the shower screen, the window, the sofa, the car interior. Bullet five names all of those, and twenty-eight tools is as many as you will be offered.
And not one of them is named.
That is the gap, and the comparison makes it visible. The Keenstone at $139.99 itemizes: “floor brushes, microfiber pads, nylon and brass brushes, a window tool, detail nozzle, and more.”
Two things that list tells you which this one cannot.
Whether there is a floor head at all, which decides whether the machine can mop — and the title here says “Steam Mop” twice.
What the brushes are made of. Brass is softer than most of what you clean: it lifts baked-on deposit from an oven rack or a grill bar without scoring the metal. Steel scratches anything polished and leaves particles on aluminum that corrode later. On a kit of twenty-eight pieces, knowing which you have is not a detail.
And accessory counts inflate easily. Spare seals, a funnel, a measuring cup and a storage bag are all legitimately in the box and none of them cleans anything.
So: the top of the shelf on quantity, with nothing published about quality.
“easily adjust the steam intensity by turning the steam control on the handle… Lock the steam trigger for hands-free, continuous cleaning.”
Two separate features, and both are worth having.
Variable output is not a luxury. Too much steam on a delicate surface is how damage happens, and a machine with one setting always hands you the maximum — so being able to use a little on a sealed floor or a sofa and a lot on an oven is the difference between a versatile tool and a risky one.
A trigger lock matters on long jobs. A grout run or a patio door is ten minutes of continuous steam, and holding a trigger for ten minutes is its own problem.
Across the shelf:
this — a dial on the handle, plus a trigger lock Schenley — “two steam trigger settings”, the coarse version of the same idea Shark S8001 and S8201 — three modes, “Light, Normal, Deep”, selected on the body HJGJYWLQ — “adjustable pressure control”, with no detail Shark S1000, S3501, Keenstone, NEWBULIG — nothing published
A dial on the handle is the best of these, because you change it mid-pass without looking down. The Shark modes are a step away from your hand; the Schenley’s two settings are coarser.
One caution the page does not give: a trigger lock on a machine with no published temperature means you can hold full steam on a surface indefinitely without knowing how hot it is. Use the dial.
Bullet one claims “1800W High-Pressure, Deep Cleaning… generates steam at optimal heat and pressure”, and publishes neither.
No temperature. No pressure. No heat-up time. No runtime.
Which is a real gap on a machine whose own first bullet leads with “high pressure”. Here is what the shelf gives instead:
Keenstone, $139.99 — 300 °F at 58 psi. And they agree: 58 psi is about 5 bar absolute, where saturated steam sits near 306 °F. The only consistent pair on this shelf. Schenley, $139.99 — 248 °F at 3.5 bar. These do not agree: 248 °F is 120 °C, roughly 2 bar absolute, while 3.5 bar gauge would put steam near 298 °F. HJGJYWLQ, $591.99 — 110 °C with 4.0–5.0 bar. Impossible together: saturated steam at 4.5 bar is 144 to 152 °C. NEWBULIG, $37.89 — 212 °F, no pressure claimed. Correct and honest for an unpressurized mop, since 212 °F is exactly 1 bar. The four Sharks — neither figure.
The heat-up time is the other informative absence. “Heats up quickly” is the claim; the arithmetic is checkable. Bringing 1.5 liters to the boil takes roughly 0.5 megajoules, which at 1800 W is about four and a half minutes — so “quickly” here means minutes, not seconds.
For comparison: the Shark S1000 and S3501 reach steam in 30 seconds, because a mop does not heat a tank at all — it drips water onto a hot block. The Schenley publishes 8 minutes for a slightly smaller tank, which is conservative against the same arithmetic.
And no runtime, where the Keenstone publishes 50 minutes from 51 oz and the Schenley 45 minutes from 45.5 fl. oz. — both working out at 30 ml a minute. At that rate a 1.5 L tank would give about 50 minutes, which is the reasonable inference here, but it is an inference.
1.5 L is joint largest among the sensible machines here:
HJGJYWLQ — 3.5 L, at a published 120 ml/min, which is 29 minutes — the biggest tank on the shelf and the shortest runtime, because it uses four times the steam this — 1.5 L, no runtime Keenstone — 51 oz, about 1.5 L, 50 minutes Schenley — 45.5 fl. oz., about 1.35 L, 45 minutes The four Sharks — “large” and “XL water capacity”, no figures at all
“Clean for longer periods without frequent refills” is the claim, and on the Keenstone-and-Schenley rate of 30 ml a minute it is a fair one.
The honest caveat belongs to the architecture rather than this machine: a pressurized tank has to depressurize before the cap comes off. The Keenstone is the only listing on this shelf to say so — “allow the unit to cool for 20 minutes before adding water” — and nothing here says whether the same applies. The safety cap that “ensures a tight seal” is the component that enforces it.
9.8 ft is 3 meters exactly, and bullet six calls it “maximum reach”.
Shark S1000 — 18 ft · NEWBULIG — 16.4 ft, 5 meters exactly · HJGJYWLQ — 3.5 m, about 11.5 ft · this — 9.8 ft · Shark S3501, S8001, S8201, Schenley, Keenstone — nothing published
Three meters is short for a machine the same bullet describes as moving “throughout the house” and “between rooms”. A domestic room is rarely crossed on ten feet of cord from one socket.
The hose is what rescues it, and that is the canister’s real advantage: “extra-long hose” means the machine stays put while the tool moves, so your working radius is cord plus hose rather than cord alone. No hose length is published, which is a pity, since that is the figure that makes the 9.8 ft tolerable.
Wheels and an ergonomic handle are the right fittings at 3447 g. This is the fourth heaviest machine on the shelf — the two light Sharks are 2087 g and 2209 g — and a canister that has to be carried room to room is a canister that stays in one room.
“remove grease and grime with just water, no chemicals, without leaving harmful residues… let your kids and pets play safely with clean toys and surfaces.”
This is the case for steam over every alternative, and three other listings here make it too.
There is no consumable. No bottle to replace, nothing with a shelf life, nothing to shop for again. A spray cleaner is a recurring purchase; this needs a tap.
And it works differently. Heat melts grease rather than dissolving it, and it leaves nothing behind — which is exactly why bullet three names toys and pets. On a surface a child puts in their mouth, the absence of residue is the whole point.
Across the shelf: the Shark S1000 leads on “CHEMICAL-FREE SANITIZATION… using just water — no chemicals needed and no residue left behind”; the Schenley calls it “the power of purified water”; the NEWBULIG “safe for… loved ones”; the HJGJYWLQ “steam technology without chemical additives”.
What this page does not claim is a sanitization figure. No percentage, no organisms. The Shark S3501 and S8201 claim “99.9% of common household bacteria” and name five organisms in the footnote — “Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica (typhi), and Klebsiella pneumoniae when used as directed”. The Schenley claims 99.9% and “compliant with EPA standards” without naming an organism. The NEWBULIG claims 99.9% of stains, which is a different kind of claim wearing the same number.
So on hygiene, this page makes the honest minimum claim: water, heat, no residue, and no figure.
No temperature, no pressure, no heat-up time, no runtime, as above.
No sealed-floor caution, and this is the one that can cost money. The title says “Steam Mop… for Floor Cleaning” and bullet five begins “From hard floors”. All four Shark machines here carry a capitalized bullet reading “SEALED HARD FLOORS”, and the word is the caution: on unsealed or waxed timber steam swells the fiber and strips wax, on unglazed stone it soaks in, on laminate with open seams it lifts the surface layer, and on unsealed grout it erodes. With a trigger lock and no published temperature, that risk is higher here than on a Shark, not lower. The cheap test is a drop of water on a joint: does it bead or soak?
No accessory names, as above — the single most useful thing a 28-piece kit could publish.
No floor head confirmed, on a machine titled “Steam Mop”.
No hose length, which is what makes the short cord workable.
No wattage check available, in the sense that 1800 W is published but nothing is published that it would explain.
No child lock, where the Keenstone has one and the NEWBULIG has a three-signal dry-run protection — a pump sound, an auto-shutoff and a red light that stays on until refilled.
No certification, where the Keenstone publishes UL499.
No warranty, where the Keenstone’s two years is the only term on this shelf.
And no reference. The catalog field reads “steam cleaner” — the product category rather than a part number — so there is nothing to quote if you need a seal, a brush or a floor pad later. The HJGJYWLQ does the same, with a field reading “HJGJYWLQ”. The Sharks publish S1000, S3501, S8001 and S8201; the Schenley SLFCSC084; the Keenstone CB-101A.

It is the reason the page gives, and the number is genuinely the highest here: Phueut 28 · Schenley 21 · Keenstone 17 · NEWBULIG 14 · HJGJYWLQ "multiple" with no count · and the four Shark machines, which ship two or four pads and no attachments at all because they only do floors. The problem is that not one of the twenty-eight is named. Bullet five describes what they are for — "hard floors to carpets, windows, furniture, toy and even your car interior" — and never says what they are. Compare the Keenstone at $139.99, which itemizes: "floor brushes, microfiber pads, nylon and brass brushes, a window tool, detail nozzle". That list tells you two things this one cannot. First, whether there is a floor head at all, which decides whether a canister can mop. Second, what the brushes are made of — and brass matters, because it is softer than most of what you clean and will lift baked-on deposit from an oven rack or a grill bar without scoring the metal, where a steel brush scratches anything polished. Accessory counts also tend to be inflated by small items: spare seals, a funnel, a measuring cup and a bag are all legitimately in the box and none of them cleans anything. So read 28 as the top of the shelf, and ask what the floor head is.
Control where your hand already is, and it is one of only two machines here with real steam regulation. Bullet two: "easily adjust the steam intensity by turning the steam control on the handle, giving you full control over your cleaning power. Lock the steam trigger for hands-free, continuous cleaning." Two separate things, both useful. Variable output means you can use a little steam on a sealed floor or a sofa and a lot on an oven — and that is not a luxury, because too much steam on a delicate surface is how damage happens, and a machine with one setting always gives you the maximum. A trigger lock means a long job — a grout run, a patio door — does not require holding a trigger for ten minutes. The shelf: the Schenley has "two steam trigger settings", a coarser version of the same idea; the Shark S8001 and S8201 have three modes — "Light, Normal, Deep" — selected on the body rather than the handle; and the Shark S1000, S3501, Keenstone, NEWBULIG and HJGJYWLQ publish either nothing or, in the HJGJYWLQ’s case, "adjustable pressure control" with no detail. A dial on the handle is the best-placed of these, because you change it mid-pass without looking.
Because it is the figure that says what the machine can actually do, and this page replaces it with adjectives. Bullet one claims "1800W High-Pressure, Deep Cleaning... generates steam at optimal heat and pressure" — and publishes neither. No temperature, no bar, no psi. Nothing to compare. Here is what the rest of the shelf gives. The Keenstone at $139.99 publishes 300 °F at 58 psi, and the two agree: 58 psi is about 5 bar absolute, where saturated steam sits near 306 °F. That is the one consistent pair here. The Schenley at $139.99 publishes 248 °F at 3.5 bar, which do not agree — 248 °F is 120 °C (248 °F), about 2 bar absolute. The HJGJYWLQ at $591.99 publishes 110 °C (230 °F) with 4.0–5.0 bar, which cannot both hold, since saturated steam at 4.5 bar is 144 to 152 °C (291 to 306 °F). The NEWBULIG at $37.89 publishes 212 °F and no pressure, which is correct and honest for an unpressurized mop. And the four Sharks publish neither figure at all. So this listing is in the same position as the Sharks, with one difference: it claims "high pressure" in its own first bullet and then will not quantify it. The missing number also prevents you from checking the sealed-floor question in the next section.
