o the floors get overly wet?

No, they dry quite quickly actually. Sometimes I will want a mop effect. I have to go over the same spot about 6 times then.

Excess water could mean you are overfilling the tank. This has happened with another brand of steam mop I have had.

i guess you have really dry floors maybe paint or other hard to remove staims. i would suggest a professional look at floor and suggest whether nor not your preparation would work.

I tried this one and in my experience it did wet the floor quite a bit. The one I purchased later was much better, the Aura Mist (see my reviews). This one was very good in respects to not wetting everything.

I just bought this unit in December and I have the exact same problem. I love the unit. It is on my bedroom carpet so I am going to try to put a mat underneath it to see if that helps and I will try to change the water level a bit as another person suggested. My guess is that the water sensor works well and the system needs to be level. Someone else told me to put it up at the highest setting and that may help. I really don't want to have to replace it and its too late to return. It really is an awesome unit. Looks great too

The best thing to do if you worry about floors, is buy some self-adhesive felt pads to attack to the bottoms of the chairs and table.I have a wooden floor and used the felt pads. Easy to move and leaves no damage.

You can easily control how much water you use so you may be able to avoid those areas I suppose. The suction works well on a flat surface but when I tried it on tiles in my brother's house it left quite a bit of water on his floors.

I only use carpet mode on extra low for all floors. Make sure to empty canister after every use. It such ks go so much hair that it needs it.

Mine get wet sometimes too. When they get wet,just turn them inside out and they will dry.

Yes, but you will get wet. It also takes a little technique. But with the power washer and the right tip it works. For the 2nd floor it gets a little whippy.

I don't now. The product, however, is so so at preventing slipping on a wet floor (better than nothing but not great.)

The water should not be too hot or too wet for wood floors. The main problem is when people leave the steamer in one place for a while, letting the heat build up. Since there is a tray provided for you to set the steamer on, this is not a problem.

Yes, I have laminate flooring and the steam evaporates very quickly, so floor is not left wet very long. I have had two of these steam mops and have never had any problems.

We spray the floor and use a clean mop with hot water (wrung out) to clean with. You could use a swiffer too

Changing my answer; the bottom might be too abrasive for shoes; it would damage floors.

That rubber addition was a great answer although I haven't attached the grips yet. It doesn't like being too wet as the wet mop creates drag on the machine and then causes traction problems for the wheels on the wet floor. Slight dampness works well and is adequate. Make sure to clip in the mop tightly as a loose mop also creates drag.

We never had to get that far, however I would try adding a crushed ice and water mixture then pouring it in to the water fill door opening, but carefully so you don' spill ice water all over your flooring and make a mess. I hope this helps you,Thanks,Jeff
