does this machine clean the grout?

If you leave the steamer on the grout and rub back and forth I have found mine to keep grout just like new

A little. It loosens some stains. But its no fault of the machine. Grout is pourous; it absorbs. So the only way to really clean grout is manually with a commercial cleaner, or with bleach and vinegar and stuff.

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.

It should do a good job. I find it easy to control and the bristles are stiff enough to get a lot of dirt out of the grout.

Yes. It works on most stains. I say most, because I think the only thing any cleaner has a tough time with is grease. But this works better than any other grout cleaner I've used.

I use tap water, but we have a water softener. I have steam cleaned white, cushioned (seat and back), high-top bar stools and pillows and the machine works well. I clean my tile and wood floors and have cleaned the tile grout with good results. I am pleased with the machine. The only problem is keeping a constant tight grip on the "on" button while moving the mop while it steams. Would be better if it had an auto on and "pause" design.

I have ceramic tile in my kitchen & bathrooms & it seems to be cleaning the grout just fine. If you have something heavy just hit the trigger that gives you a big blast of steam. The more you hit the trigger the more water you use but it gets heavy grime up good especially on hard wood.

This machine cleans very well. However I don't have tiles. It cleans with steam so no residue is left behind on wood or linoleum.

Although the Revolver Drill Brush can clean the grout...a grout cleaning tool (which scratches off the top layer of grout and targets just the grout) is best because grout is a porous material and dirt/grime soaks into it and you have to remove approx. 1/32 nd of an inch or so to truly clean it. This brush is by far the most versatile cleaning tool I own and I will always own one!!!!!

I've used vinegar and water to clean tile and had no problems with machine. Not used on wood floors.

It does a good job if the grout between the tile is not old and caked on. If you keep up your tile floors a couple of washings with this mop should do the job.

Have not tried it on grout...surely works well on everything I have tried...even pet stains! This little steamer is so useful, that everyone should have one for all the things it does in cleaning and sanitizing!

No, I don't think any steamer will. Does a great job on tile, though. The steam disenfects but any stains on grout remain.

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.

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

Not really. It can break up set in stains. Great for grout, grills, floors. It does not suck up dirt, it breaks it down. I purchased a Hoover steam vac from amazon, perfect for carpets. I had a bissell. The Hoover out cleans the bissell by a mile. At about 159.00 it is a steal.

My unsealed floor tile grout is a mess and I hate it. The green apple cleaner works better than anything else I have tried. Unfortunately it just gets dirty again.

No, it is designed to cut wood andthin metal. There are much better tools to remove grout

We don't know if it cleans tile grout. We have only used it on carpet and it works great on that.
