We purchased a 5-year-old foreclosed home in Las Vegas that had had a renter for the past couple of years. I swear the ceramic tile grout had never been cleaned. My husband and I have scrubbed with a toothbrush, a grout brush, Zep grout cleaner and mopped and re-mopped the floor and never got it completely clean. I think a good part of it was we were liquifying the dirt and not able to get the dirty water up with a mop even after rinsing with clear water. When I saw the reviews for this floor scrubber I ordered it immediately. When I first got it together (it takes a bit of assembly out of the box but the directions are pretty clear) I didn't think there was any way those wimpy brushes would do a good job. And I wasn't very impressed when I began to use it...until I dumped the first tank of used water (read filthy, grimy, gritty water). I vacuumed the floor first, there was no grit. We've been over and over the floor so many times I would have sworn it was clean. Nope. The tiles look better than they ever have and the grout, while not yet perfect, is also looking cleaner by a long shot. I think it will take several applications of grout cleaner to get all the dirt scrubbed out. I'm glad I ordered an extra bottle when I ordered the scrubber. I suggest you do too. You'll go through cleaning solution pretty quickly. When scrubbing the grout, use the gray brushes, and clean each side of each tile so the length goes along the 5 brushes. Then clean the tile in slow overlapping strokes. While there is a lot of work even with this, it is a vast improvement over mopping because it immediately sucks up the dirty water and the cleaner does not leave behind sticky residue without rinsing. I gave it 4 stars because I think the grout brushes could be stiffer and a bit longer for an even cleaner floor. I haven't used the floor brushes yet.Get more detail about Hoover H3060 Floormate Spinscrub 800 Wet/Dry Vacuum Cleaner with Tools.
