I don't refer to as the steam mop because it does so much more. - This product works wanders. Not only does it come with the steam mop it also has 10 accessories included. It picks up the dirt like no other mop I have ever had. The accessories are a important part. It comes with a squeegee my mirrors and windows have never looked so clear and to think it is only being cleaned with steam no chemicals. The windows look like they do not have a pane of glass anymore. I have used the accessory that cleans around the sink and my I was actually disgusted with what the steam cleaner blew out around the handle It was stuff that you could not see with a naked eye and it left my spout actually shining like I had just purchased it. The steam mop itself is absolutely wonderful. We have used it and let me tell you that after cleaning the floor to walk on the floor barefoot it feels so clean. To think that just steam has been able to clean my entire house is just amazing. I have breathing issues so to use this chemical and that chemical was just a waste of my time and money. I wished that I would have invested in this steam mop before I look back and think of how much money I would have saved and the amount of time I spent picking out the right products just makes cringe. I do not have any pets so as far as the aspect of hair and smells I cannot make any statement about. Why did I purchase this particular unit is because it has all the features that I am looking for it works on hardwood, tile, I have vinyl in my kitchen and it cleans it like a charm. Plus lets not forget all the accessories. I was able to clean my entire kitchen even the stove the steam just releases stuck on hard food like you would not believe. It cleaned my entire bathroom the crevice's around my toilet the sink crevice's the grime that soap film leaves in your shower unit, leaves your mirrors looking spotless no streaks. And the floor is super clean. All without any chemicals. If my unit should ever quit working I would replace with this model if available or a similar unit if I have no choice. I really have no negatives about my steam cleaner. If I was to give any negative comment it would be how the cup attaches to the handle for storage the cup seems to fall of the handle easily. The second thing would be the size of the accessories I wished that they had larger attachments the squeegee could have been wider to clean a larger area the attachment it came with is perfect for bathroom mirrors but when it comes to the house windows it takes much longer time to get that job done. Those two things are petty things that is able to be pushed aside when comparing if this is the model for you. Review: REDEMPTION! A Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop that WORKS!! - Although very optimistic about this purchase, after following the instructions TO THE LETTER, and only using distilled water, it failed to produce steam after only one use. How disappointing! I DO NOT recommend this product at all. Accordingly, I am sending it back for a refund. I will, most likely, order a HAAN steam cleaner to replace this Bissell failure. UPDATE #1: I posted the above review several hours ago after trying to use my Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop for only the second time. Of course, as I explained above, the steamer failed to work, prompting me to request a return shipping label for a refund; however, before packing the unit up, I looked online for possible fixes to my problems and came across this U-Tube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz8OvV30sHM I tried the half-CLR / half-Distilled Water mixture (poured directly into the water reservoir) and let it sit for approximately three hours. Upon turning on the unit to see if it would make steam …. NOTHING …. but wait! …. after trying for several second without success, I (as they did in the video) shook the steamer from side to side quite forcefully and … BLAMMO …. a strong burst of steam suddenly came exploding from the steam mop head and it began functioning absolutely perfectly, as if nothing was ever wrong. I immediately powered the steam mop down and promptly emptied the water reservoir of the CLR mixture, rinsed the reservoir out good, then refilled the reservoir with clean, fresh distilled water. Afterwards, I was able to mop my entire tiled kitchen, tiled hallways, and tiled bathrooms with nary a hitch. The Bissell Steam Mop operated exactly as it was designed. In retrospect, now that I see how the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop operates when it is working properly, I realize that the first time I used the steam mop, the steamer was not putting out the proper amount of steam. Obviously, there was a clog in the unit when I unboxed it, when lends me to believe that desertcart shipped me a unit that had been returned. I come to that conclusion based on the fact that the box the Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop arrived in from desertcart was a plain brown cardboard box, unlike one you would expect from a manufacturer. While I was at Sears yesterday, I looked at some Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mops that were displayed for sale and (unlike the box I received from desertcart) the boxes were very colorful with bold pictures of the steam mop proudly displayed on each side. Quite a difference! I'm going to keep the return label that I downloaded from desertcart's website for at least a couple of weeks since I may still very well return it. It kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth that desertcart (to my belief) sent me a used/returned unit. I will give it another try or two before I decide whether or not to return it. However, I WILL upgrade my rating, just slightly (to 3 Stars), because the Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop DID do a beautiful job on my floors after it was flushed with whatever debris/gunk was clogging the steamer flow tubes. Indeed I was VERY impressed with the overall simplicity of operation, the amount of steam that contacted the floor, and the finished cleanliness of the finished floors. Quite nice! Recommended … but with caution! UPDATE #2: Okay …. it's official … the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop is a piece of CRAP! Today I attempted to use it for the third time and, AGAIN, it would not operate. It required yet another dose of CLR before the steamer mechanism came to life. Accordingly, I am reducing my review to only one star, but that's only because I can't give it ZERO stars. NOT RECOMMENDED!!! UPDATE #3: August 22, 2015 …. Today I was at Sears in Savannah, GA and purchased a new Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop. As noted above in my earlier review, the steam mop I received from desertcart was packaged in a plain brown cardboard box, void of any embellishment or product photos. This, of course, led me to believe I might have been sent a repackaged unit by desertcart, perhaps a defective unit that was previously returned. Regardless, the Powerfresh that I received from desertcart NEVER worked properly. Fast forward to today …. the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop that I purchased from Sears (unlike the one from desertcart) was contained inside a very colorful cardboard box, adorned with photos of the product and highly descriptive information. I purchased the unit for $89, and paid an additional $18 for a 2-year replacement warranty. I brought the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop home and assembled it according to the instructions (which is VERY simple). After assembly, I poured fresh distilled water into the reservoir and plugged in the unit. YES! …. The Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop that I purchased from Sears fired right up and within one minute was pumping away steam like an old locomotive! I immediately steam mopped my tile kitchen, tile hallway, and tiled bathrooms with nary a hitch. It worked beautifully and the resulting cleaned floors looked fantastic! Acccordingly, I am now escalating my star-rating from 1 to 5. Yes, it was a frustrating and annoying beginning to my relationship with the Bissell, but the unit that I purchased today worked so well and did such a fantastic job on my floors, I have to give it a max-rating. Would I purchase the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop from desertcart? …. HELL NO …. Would I purchase the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop from a local department store? ….. YES YES YES! At the moment I whole-heartedly recommend the Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop; however, it I run into issues in the future I will most certainly provide an update. ## Features - SANITIZE WITH STEAM, NOT CHEMICALS.

I do bleach them in the wash, but to the mops credit, it picks up so much filth they can look a little grey. But they ARE clean. If you're asking how long they last during a cleaning... I mop a large area like the kitchen, then I pick it up and peek under the mop to see how much I've picked up. If it's COVERED in dirt I change it, if I can still see the white of the pad I keep going. Hope that helped! **Q: Do you have to pump the handle (like a Shark) in order for the steam to release? Thank you.** A: No pumping required. Once you set the steam level (Low, Medium or High), there is continuous steam until you push the steam level button again to select "off," or unplug it.I probably should elaborate that a lot of people don't seem to realize there is a way to turn the steam off aside from unplugging the power cord. No "off" switch is probably one of the most frequent complaints I see in the reviews. The off control is the same button that controls the steam level. Push the button once for Low steam, push again for Medium steam, push again for High steam, and push it a fourth time to turn the steam OFF. So, although there is no separate off/on switch (which I don't find to be a problem at all), the mop CAN be turned off without unplugging the power cord. **Q: Can this be used on hardwood floors?** A: Well at a flooring store there was a sign saying NOT to use any STEAM on hardwood floors.....doing so will negate your factory warranty... **Q: Can Pinesol be added to the water?** A: NO!! Bissell recommends using only distilled water. Obviously those saying "yes" didn't read the User's Guide. There are multiple warnings throughout the User's Guide that comes with the mop that plainly says: "Never put descaling , aromatic, alcoholic or detergent products into the steam cleaner, as this may damage it or make it unsafe for use." That means no white vinegar, no essential oils, no cleaners like Pinesol. Nothing but water, and preferably DISTILLED water and not tap water. You run the risk of having the mop plug up and stop steaming if you add anything else to the tank...and doing so will void the valuable 2 year manufacturer's warranty you get with this mop. If you feel you must use some type of cleaner in conjunction with the steam, add a little directly to the floor so it is not going through the working components of the mop. However, just be aware that if you use cleaner (directly on the floor), you pretty much defeat the advantages of cleaning with steam, i.e., #1. Avoiding potentially harmful chemicals and fumes, #2. no rinsing and rinsing ... and rinsing (and no soapy residue left behind), and #3. not having to spend extra money on floor cleaning products. Believe me, this mop cleans so well you do not need to use cleaners, at all. The steam does it all -- loosens dirt, grime and even residue from previous products, and it sanitizes. Truly, the first time I used this mop, it removed old, dried paint splatters out of the crevices of a textured vinyl floor! You don't need to complicate things. A $1 gallon of distilled water is all you need to get squeaky clean floors. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love my steam cleaner.

I went back to the old "tried and true" method of mop and bucket of soapy water for a time, but found myself missing the ease and convenience of a good steam mop. I was definitely attracted to the positive reviews on the Bissell, so that was a big draw. The price was right too. I've been happy with it since I've had it. Easy to use and very effective at cleaning. We have sealed hardwood, seal laminate, and ceramic tile in our house, so this mop has been tested on different types of floors. Hardwood: works great. The basic mop cloth is better than the one with the little "grippers" etched into it. It glides much more smoothly across the floor. To keep the shine up, I'll spray a fine mist of vinegar over small areas as I steam mop. Ceramic: My favorite type of flooring by far to use this on, mostly because you don't have to even think about moisture issues with it. Cleans perfectly every single time. If something does get stuck in the grout, there is a small scrubber attachment that you can use to scrub as you mop. Laminate: I'm always extremely careful whenever cleaning my laminate, regardless of how I'm cleaning it. Let's face it, laminate and water do not mix. We installed our flooring and sealed it at all the seams, but I still worry. While you can't turn off the steam on this mop during usage (if it's plugged in, the steam is going), you can reduce the amount of steam to the lowest level, which I've found to be just right for "delicate" floors like laminate. In the past (with my other steam mop) I did begin to notice a bit of a dull build up that happened after using the steam mop exclusively for about 3 months; using a regular mop and some laminate floor cleaner seamed to clear that up quickly. I don't know if that will happen with this steam mop, but I'm anticipating it and am prepared for it. Things to consider: --If this is your first steam mop, be aware that it's not the same as cleaning with a mop. I remember wondering how it was cleaning my floor at all; but it does. In fact, it does an amazing job. I'm constantly repulsed by how nasty the mop cover is after one use. Yuck. --Expect to buy more mop covers. You'll get 2 with this unit. And those 2 are great. But the thing about steam mops is that the cover will become gross as you mop around your house---especially if you're doing a major cleaning that is picking up a lot of dirt. The more dirty that mop cover gets, the better the chance of leftover streaks on your floor will be. Decide which sort of mop cover you use most and pick up an extra pack of them. You may want to use a fresh mop cover for each high-traffic area. ---Be aware that some floors just love to show streaks and there isn't too much you can do about it. My hardwood and ceramic are a dream to clean with the steam mop, but the laminate is a bit more fussy. If the cover isn't clean, the floor will look streaky and almost like there's a film on it when you're done. I try to do that flooring first to reduce that risk. If you notice a build up after a while, do a mop/bucket round of cleaning with a designated laminate cleaner. That should cut through the "film"; you'll be fine to steam mop once again. Overall opinion: I like this machine. It's simple. Straight forward. Easy to use. You can't turn the steam off while the unit is plugged in, but I'm okay with that and have never had any issues because of it. Changing between steam levels is as easy as pushing a button and the result is almost immediate. The water heats up quickly (about 30 seconds) so my mop is ready to use when I'm ready to use it. There is a slight "knocking" sound that happens while the mop is plugged in and as I'm using it, but it doesn't affect the usage and hasn't been a problem. The manual mentions that it can happen, and I think it has to do with how the water is drawn from the water tank by the machine. My one complaint is that one of the mop covers has a rip in the seam (where the elastic is sewn on). I can stitch it and it will be fine, but it's annoying that it happened after one wash. Also, the mop covers will not be white ever again after you've used them. No matter how you wash or pretreat them. I've gotten over that too and it doesn't really matter. In the end, so long as this machine continues to work well, I'm happy. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bissell Power Fresh Steam Mop with Natural Sanitization, Floor Steamer, Tile Cleaner, and Hard Wood Floor Cleaner with Flip-Down Easy Scrubber, 1940A - 6 Pack 1940 for Bissell Steam Mop Pads for Bissell PowerFresh Steam Mop 1806 1544 1440 2075A 2685A 1940W 19404 Series, Model 19402 19408 1940a 1940f 1940q 1940t B0006 B0017, Part #5938#203-2633 - 12 Pack 1940 Steam Mop Replacement Pads for Bissell Powerfresh Steam Mop 1940 1440 1806 1544 2075 2685A 2814 Series, Model 19402 19404 19408 19409 1940A 1940F 1940Q 1940T 1940W B0006 B0017 2075A 15441 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/281167-powerfresh-steam-mop-1940a](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/281167-powerfresh-steam-mop-1940a) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
