Tineco iFLOOR 5 Breeze Complete Wet Dry Vacuum Cordless Floor Washer, One-Step Cleaning for Hard Floors, Edge Clean, Auto Self-Cleaning, Lightweight & Cordless Design

I was hesitant to make this big purchase. I'm so glad that I did. I have 2 kids, a dog (Golden Retriever), a long-haired cat, and a construction working husband. Needless to say, our house gets tracked up easily. We have a ranch style house. The main floor is 2500 sq/ft. Only the bedrooms have carpet. Everything else is vinyl flooring. Before purchasing this, I would vacuum everything then mop and bucket. It was so much work with going back and forth rinsing out the mop and moving chairs back and forth. It was always a big, long chore I was never excited about doing. I have been looking at these machines for a while and wasn't ready to invest. Mostly due to reading reviews about animal hair. I have read a lot that said it doesn't work well for that. I will say with a dog and cat that shed it does work well. I do vacuum the corners were the hair likes to collect in little dust piles first with our cordless vacuum just because I don't want to have issues with it. Thats a quick easy thing for me to do first. Then I used this vacuum and mop around the house. The first time I used it I knew our floors were dirty. It was winter and the kids and dog would track in the salt and dirt from the driveway. So, when the smart function on the machine said the floors were dirty, I would go slow over the floors and the machine goes into turbo mode. I continue over the spot until the light on the top will turn green. This used a lot of the battery because of how dirty my floors were. The battery didn't make it halfway through the house. I was a little disappointed, but I do realize the machine was running hard. I put it on the charger, and it takes a long time to charge up. I did the rest of the house later that day and it worked great. I was so surprised at how well it cleaned the floors. I like the fact that it has a dirty water and clean water tank. That way you're not using the same water to clean the floors and push the same crud around. With our larger area to be cleaned I have to empty the tank out about 5 to 6 times during moping. It's very easy to do. I dump the dirty water tank in the toilet. It has a hair collector/strainer at the top of the tank to collect all the bigger debris that gets in the tank. This is nice to just grab what's on the top and toss it in the trash and dump the rest. When you are finished you run the self-cleaning cycle and dump out the tank. It comes with a bristle brush to clean the tanks out which is really nice. I set them to the side to dry out, so I don't get a mold/musty/stinky tank. I also take the roller off the bottom and set it up right to dry evenly. The base has storage attachments to keep everything together, so nothing gets lost. I find myself moping the floors more often and house is staying cleaner. When I keep up on the moping I can do the whole house on one battery charge. If I wait a while and the floors get really dirty, I do have to stop and recharge the machine up and finish the rest after it's done charging. This works great for my dog and cat hair. I haven't had a problem with clogging or it not picking up the hair. The base just goes by a plug in our locker room out of site from everything and is sturdy. I'm so glad I purchased this, and I use it often. I highly recommend it if you have a large area of flooring that you vacuum and mop. It cuts your time in half.

I bought this at a discounted price during Amazon prime day. I have the S3, which I love, but was excited over new and improved features the latest edition flaunted.Let me tell you what I appreciated:-Closer cleaning to the edges: Okay, so though there is a smidge of an improvement here- the new edition still isn’t as good as advertised. You will see about a cm (give or take 2 mm) of uncleared debris from the edge, but it still is an improvement!-Better suction: there is a lot more suction on this newer edition and it joyfully surprised me, definitely an improvement I love. I don’t have to revisit areas I already cleaned as much as I did with the S3.-Design improvements to the cover on top of the roller and the container holding the dirty water. With the s3, I found that at times water sputtered out of the dirty water tank and the cover over the roller, despite both being properly installed. I would have to reinstall them several times to get the perfect fit where water wouldn’t go spraying out. It was annoying. This new design seems to have a better fit, and improved cover that stops this problem. Definitely a relief to know it’s fixed!Stuff that is a con but not so much to outweigh the pros:-Battery Power: battery drains faster, this is the biggest issue I have, but all in all I assume it is because it’s operating at a more powerful rate. It still covers most of my bottom floor so not a huge issue, just something that isn’t always convenient if I have bigger jobs downstairs.-the dirty water tank needs cleaning faster and the cleaning solution also needs refilling faster, and this is for the same reason I think I listed above. I operate normally only on auto mode, so it is likely that the more powerful suction requires more water than the S3 did.The hand held vacuum is decent, it does the job. Easy to use. For the price of the add on, it’s worth the purchase.I put my old S3 upstairs and now have the latest edition downstairs. I am pretty happy with my purchase and have bought several of them for family and friends.Helpful tip for any tineco: I use a deodorizing solution in the dirty water tank to keep it from smelling. I noticed that it was getting very putrid smell in my S3, even when clean, and this seemed to stop the issue. I use the self cleaning feature after every use, Hand wash the components at least once a week, change out the filter and roller every three weeks, and take good care of the machine, but the smell was still happening. I really recommend this to everyone.
