Will this unit clean tiles and grout completely without chemical and additional scrubbing?

i let my mcculloch get super hot and wet on mop and use it several times over the grout area with the hose attachment. cleaned great.

yes. I used nothing but the steam. If it's a tough job, steam on highest pressure makes it easier; when it starts to weaken a bit, let it 'recharge' and it will continue to work well. In 2 or 3 places, I had to go over the grout 2 or 3 times but I had moved into a house where the people never cleaned it, and it was over 10 years old.

The answer is "it depends". It depends how dirty the grout is. I use it all the time BUT I still need to scrub to get cleaning done. This is hot steam NOT a power washer.

my experience is there is extra scrubbing involved, but the steam is helpful

There is a limit how much it can clean the grout. If it clean (WHITE) then it keeps them clean and white but if it is already dark/dirty it wont make them white again! But it does clean quite well. Remember it is a compact unit and it does not compare with large floor units (industrial type)

Yes - fine on porcelain; pour onto grout, soak for 15-30 seconds, scrub with grout brush, wipe off excess with wet towel on tile prior to it drying; after the scrubbing make sure you wipe up the gunk and solution with a wet towel/mop etc, let dry and seal grout (optional) - great stuff.

Yes, the steamer does a great job on grout. I find it is a really great help with cleaning. I am in a wheelchair and I manage to clean almost everything with this device.

Yes. I used it on my bathroom tile floor with Lysol cleaner. I'd suggest you try a test spot with cleaner to decide on brush or scrubbing pad.

I used this product on non sanded grout. I sprayed the product. No issues with cleanup. Just followed the directions.

I must admit that the grout in my bathroom is a little more than a year old, but it does appear as if it takes care of it also. My thoughts are that since the machine actually scrubs, it does get into the grout and clean it. Of course the amount of cleaner you put on the floor would make a difference also.

No - You will need the cleaner called Multifloor Plus for use on both tile and wood floors

I do not have tile floors or shower tiles to clean but here is the HomeRight website link. It does mention tile grout. http://www.homeright.com/products/steammachine-multi-purpose-power-steamer

I haven't found ANY steam mop that will 'clean' grout very well. It will clean fairly well if you let the mop sit on an area for a few seconds, but it won't scrub the grout lines if that's what you're looking for. For that matter neither does my hard floor cleaner by another well known floor cleaning company.

Do not put cleaner in the machine. But I have used cleaner on the floor then used the steamer which worked well for really stubborn grout stains n the tile floor. Also, the high heat of the steam is supposed to sanitize. I did not feel the need to use cleaner to disinfect, just for stubborn stains

This cleaner does a great job on travertine tile and hardwood floors. It is basically a steamer, not a scrubber with suction, so I'm guessing it may sanitize a thin carpet to a degree but not really clean much.

Really well. I cleaned my grout before I got the machine and it had kept it nice. I have found that I do need to do a clear water rinse or the tile is a bit streaky.

It is difficult to say. We started using the Sharp Steam mop right after our tile was installed. Our tile has dark grout and when we have dropped powder on the tile and grout it does remove that. We are pleased on how it cleans the tile.

Yes it will. It will remove all coatings, as well as the spatters, down to the concrete surface. Clean after with Emerge degreaser. You can always call us direct at 800-538-5069 for further tech support. Regards,Stephenie

If you use the whole system and clean all the existing grout as well as scrape it with wire brushes, it will be clean enough to use the product Makes it look like new but maintenance is required and it will have to be redone (maybe) semi-annually.

Hi Deeda - Yes this should aid with cleaning the grout in your bathroom! Included with this unit is a grout brush you can attach as well.
