Product Information

Thanks to the microfibre mop pads this steam cleaner effectively removes dirt and grease while also sanitising. Plus, once you add the handy carpet glider to the base, it can also be used on carpets, rugs, upholstery, and mattresses to get a hygienic clean. Transparency is really important to us and that's why we're always upfront about where we find our recommendations. We write about products that we feel offer the best value to most parents – the ones that our users would recommend to their own friends and family. While I imagine it’s safe to leave the water tank with water in it, it’s also super easy to simply lift it off the shaft and empty it out when you’re done. Cleaning the Vileda Looper The Vileda Looper comes with two different types of pads - one soft and cream-coloured and the other with red zig-zag lines running across it. There is no explanation in the instructions as to why the pads are different and what they should be used for, but as the zig zag lines felt slightly abrasive to touch, it’s safe to assume that these pads are more suited to hardier floors, such as vinyl.

Clean your hard floors with ease and efficiency; the Vileda spray mops were specifically designed for moist mopping. Achieve excellent cleaning results for almost every type of hard or sealed floor. Reviewer Laura lives in a four bedroom house with her husband and two kids, aged four and five. The Vileda Looper was tested out on laminate flooring in the kitchen, the bathroom and the downstairs loo, plus the tiled floor in the utility room. The Vileda Looper was also used on vinyl kitchen flooring. Mumsnet has been helping parents make their lives easier since 2000 and, in those years, we’ve seen, tried and reviewed thousands of products. It may be a process of trial and error. Many brands offer trial-sized samples, so you could give a few options a go before making a commitment. What’s the best floor mop to buy?The Vileda Steam Mop Plus gives an effective hygienic clean without the need of using any chemicals. The combination of steam and the microfibre pads kills 99.9%* of bacteria from all types of floor surfaces making this a great chemical free cleaning option for floors. The Vileda 1-2 Spray is so-called because it refines the mopping process into two simple steps - filling the tank and spraying the water. For step one, all I had to do was remove the stopper at the top of the handle before adding up to 250ml of water. The manufacturer says the 1-2 Spray can be used with just water, or you can add Vileda’s own Active Cleaner or the floor cleaner of your choice. For the sake of this test, I used the mop with water before adding some Tesco All Purpose Cleaner, as per the instructions. I also found the water tank capacity to be more than generous. I was able to scrub the kitchen, bathroom and long hallway, using just half of the water tank’s capacity. This is really down to your preference though, if you want a lot more water to scrub with, you may have to fill up your water tank more often. I have the Vileda 1-2-spray mop and it’s grand...does the job!" - Recommended by Mumsnetter ChittyChittyBoomBoom

The Vileda 1-2 Spray Mop was tested out on laminate flooring in the kitchen, bathroom, conservatory and the downstairs loo, plus the tiled floor in the utility room. If you want some real power behind your spray mop, consider a model like our winner, the expert Vileda Looper Spray Mop. It’s a cordless charge-up-and-clean option with extra power for those tougher stains. Some spray mops, such as the Flash Power Mop, also have battery-assisted trigger sprays for more force behind every spritz.

What we don't like

The Looper performed well on laminate flooring, getting rid of tea splodges and muddy footprints without too much hassle. The spray produced just the right amount of water to get the job done without running the risk of warping the laminate. How well does the Vileda Looper clean tiled flooring? When spraying water, you should be mindful of the angle of the handle, otherwise you risk firing water up the wall or your kitchen units (which I may have done once or twice).
