Oreck Steam-It Review & Giveaway
Do you hate to mop? Do you love to have the clean floors without all the mess and chemicals? If so, you will definitely want to try out the Oreck Steam-It! I was so excited to have the opportunity to review the Oreck Steam It! It’s easy-to-use, effective, and eco-friendly!
So, how do you mop without using a bucket of water and cleaning solution? The Oreck Steam-It uses steam to deep clean surfaces, including marble, ceramic, stone, vinyl, linoleum, and sealed hardwood floors. You can even clean carpet and rugs, as well as drapes, upholstery, kitchen and bath counters, and more! The Oreck Steam-It uses pressurized, “dry” steam to naturally disinfect and “melt away” dirt and grime.
What makes the Oreck Steam-It different from other steam mops? The Steam-It has a unique, pressurized vapor chamber, which makes it easy to clean above the floor without spilling. It’s easy to use and eco-friendly. You won’t need to use toxic chemicals or detergents, just tap water.
Here are some other great features of the Oreck Steam-It:
MY THOUGHTS:
I like that it’s easy to use and effective. It did take a little while at first to get it into action so it was quickly picking up the grime. After a few minutes, however, it worked like a charm. It’s definitely a plus that it only needs tap water and not the harsh chemicals and cleaners used to clean most floors. I also like that the floors were dry after using it. I give it a 4 out of 5 rating overall.

I’d love to try it on my sealed hardwood floors. I’ve never found anything I like yet. I also like it heats so quickly and has reusable pads. Thanks.

I like the idea of the microfiber pads. Microfiber seems to be the answer to everything these days

I love that it doesn’t use chemicals which also means no sticky residue floors. I love that the floor would be dry almost instantly. I really want one of these! Thanks for a great review!
I like everything about this product. I like that it uses steam and that the pads are rewashable. I really, really want one!

From what I understand Steam cleaners SANITIZE as well as clean. So that would be AMAZING with a toddler and 2 dogs that will eat ANYTHING off the floor!

I love that I can clean my hardwood floors easily and without any chemicals. Having a little one crawling around on the floor I am always concerned about chemical residue on the floors.

I like the steam mop I have right now, but it’s only for floors. I’d love to have an Oreck (which I know is top-of-the-line) that would clean floors and also countertops, drapes, etc.

I love that it doesn’t use chemicals and drys quickly

Besides the obvious benefits of sanitizing I love that it works upside-down without spillage for above the floor cleaning.

For over a year now we have been living a very “Green” lifestyle. In order to “green up our act” we have made many changes to the way we live our life and the products that we use. I am only using natural home cleaning products that are safe and healthy for my family and friendly and kind to the environment. What I love about this Oreck Steam It is the fact that it does not require any harsh chemicals. I love that it cleans using Steam and ordinary tap water, now that is very cool! With 3 young children all under the age of 10, 2 dogs and my husband and parents all under our roof, I clean everyday. I would love to add this gem to my cleaning arsenal! Thanks so much for the chance to enter.
