Cleaning—getting rid of visible dust, crumbs, and sticky messes—keeps our kitchens looking and smelling nice. Sanitizing annihilates invisible pathogens, like bacteria and viruses. Most home cooks get their kitchens in fighting shape with a variety of specialized cleaners and products, but the Shark Steam Pocket Mop is efficient enough to handle both tasks. Even better, it does it with the gentle power of steam. Shark's cleaning products dominate the vacuum and floor care category, and right now you can get its popular steam cleaner at a bargain. Normally $90, it's on sale for just $55 at Amazon. This 4.8-pound wonder (which shoppers have called a "little mop from heaven") is a hot ticket item, with over 23,000 five-star ratings. And even though this tool shines on most floors including sealed hardwood, customers praise the Pocket Mop for its especially efficient work in scrubbing kitchens. One even wrote it cleans "disgusting kitchen floor in seconds." The Pocket Mop works by emitting a powerful spray of on-demand steam that has a 99.9% effective sanitation rate, according to the brand. It's lightning-fast, too; water heats up in just 30 seconds, and dries almost instantly. Meanwhile, a reusable microfiber cloth picks up and locks in dirt. It's even strong enough to grab stuck-on food bits from laminate flooring, reviewers said. Courtesy of Amazon To buy: Shark Steam Pocket Mop, $55 (originally $90) at amazon.com Unlike many other floor cleaning tools, the Pocket Mop has a swivel head, which allows you to use both sides of the cloth before swapping it out. It also makes it easier to maneuver around tricky corners and hard-to-reach spots like around the kitchen sink and stove. So does steam *actually* get floors spic-and-span? You bet. One reviewer explained that the ultra-hot temperatures are the key to lifting stains and residue, and they also found it useful for oil-based stains and messes. The Pocket Mop turns distilled water from an easy-fill reservoir into steam, which is released with a gentle pump of the soft-grip handle. Grill Owners Swear by These Cleaners to Get Rid of Stains, Grease, and Grime in Seconds One reviewer noted that their kitchen floors had never looked cleaner, and they uploaded a video as proof—there's a visual coating of grime on their microfiber pad. Another customer said that the Pocket Mop is particularly useful at dislodging dirt from textured tile floors. "Cleanest floors of my life," they noted and added that their kitchen floors finally feel clean enough for their baby to explore. It comes with two washable pads, but you can buy refills if you like to have backup. Head to Amazon and shop the Shark Steam Pocket Mop for just $55 before this deal ends and the price goes with it.
