Overview

Adjustable steam output and a flip-down scrubber brush do the work on the BISSELL PowerFresh, which turns water from a removable tank into steam for sealed hard floors. It plugs into the wall and is built as an upright mop.

Quick heating and a scrubber that breaks up dried-on spills make it a fast daily floor tool. BISSELL ties its germ claim to use with microfiber pads, yet pads are not named among the included parts, and carpet is out of scope.

Who it's for

Kitchens, entryways and tiled bathrooms with sealed surfaces benefit from steam and a scrubber in one tool. Homes that are mostly carpet, or cleaners who want a cordless mop, should skip it.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fast heat up
  • Adjustable steam levels
  • Flip-down scrubber for dried messes
  • Long power cord
Cons
  • Sealed hard floors only
  • Corded, outlet needed
  • Pads not listed as included
  • Germ claim depends on microfiber pads

Performance notes

Cleaning power comes from steam temperature and the moisture the head lays down, which you set with the steam control. The flip-down scrubber adds agitation for dried spills and grout. Tank size decides how much floor you cover before refilling, and cord length decides how often you change outlets.
