Is it easy to push etc.? I'm a senior citizen and am looking for simple and easy.

Hi Jackie!! I am also disabled..that is the reason that I wanted the 2 in 1 system..it is as easy as pushing a broom across the floor..

Pretty easy. The moisture makes it a bit tough and the more pressure you apply the more scrubbing action you get. But my floors get pretty dirty and I need to really scrub.

I wouldn't say it was easy. It's not on wheels. Imagine pushing a wet cloth along the floor. This has been true for all the steam mops I have used. I also wouldn't describe it as light weight. I bought a new mop that was smaller and lighter but it doesn't work as well as this one did.

It took my husband 45 minutes to put it together but he's Mr. Handyman. If you know how to use basic tools, like a screwdriver and wrench and maybe have an extra set of hands around, you should be able to do it. yes, I'm in my 60's and this machine is great, particularly because it's up off the floor, which is what I needed. My only criticism is that the resistance is pretty low. I'm not in shape at all but could use more resistance.

No. You have to push it. But it's not hard. It's light weight and very effective.

I'm sure you could push it with no problem at all. This is a nifty unit and well-worth the price.

That's a really good question. For me it's really easy. I don't feel like giving too much force to push the dispenser button. But I can't say that for seniors with Parkinson's and arthritis. What you could do is to see if one of the Tevana stores has the same or similar water dispenser so that she could try on it. I would say some other appliance stores might carry this type of dispenser too.

It's very easy to push, hardly any effort needed. It's also adjustable depending on your carpet thickness.

I wouldn't recommend for an older individual. When there is nothing rough or uneven in it's way it moves quick & pretty effortlessly. However, It gets stuck a lot.

Not hard. Am a 60 yr old woman, and did it all by myself, directions were very easy to follow. The only issue was one misaligned screw hole that I mentioned in my review. I had to drill a new hole so the screw would go in correctly. Overall it took less than an hour to assemble. Have fun! Aron

No the plate isn't hard to push. I purchased several of these for my daughters 5th birthday spa party. The girls were ages 4 through 8, and none of them had an issue with pressing down on the plate.

Your mom can use this very easily. I'm 56 and have rheumatoid arthritis, and have no trouble using it. It pushes very easily.

I'd say it's easy. I guess it also depends on your flooring and how much you load on it.

No. It is a simple push button. Probably easy to get pushed unless you keep some small bubble wrap in a ziplock bag?

It should be realtively easy. You may have to pull and shake it a little while pulling. The first few times were also a little difficult for me.

I'm not positive but I got it for my mother who is 75 and she thinks its easy to push!

Yes, you can push it--but obviously pulling it is easier. You are able to push it and steer it

You can push it, my 2 yr old grandson pushes it all around the house. In all honestly, it's much easier to just pull it. I'm disabled and have no problems pulling my grandson and his toys that have to come with us on our walks. I'm 5 ft. and the handle is a perfect fit

Yes! Easy and very durable. We love it (grandparents) and bought another one for my sons house!
