Shark Steam & Scrub Automatic S6002UK

Where the flip-pad S6003 wipes, the Steam & Scrub scrubs: its two power pads rotate around 150 times a minute to physically agitate dried-on and baked-on mess while steaming, which is why it earns a distinct place above the more general mops for tough kitchen jobs. Intelligent Steam Control offers Light and Normal modes, and Shark states it sanitises 99.9% of household bacteria. Trusted Reviews found it gentle on floors and effective, but noted it 'can't quite get into corners as well as a regular steam mop' — the honest trade-off against a flip-head design, along with a smaller 0.35 L tank and more frequent refills. The long 8 m cord and four machine-washable pads help for bigger sessions.
