Tineco iFloor Cordless Vacuum and Floor Washer Review

- Is the Tineco iFloor the answer to all of your floor-cleaning prayers? Decide for yourself after you watch this thorough review of the Tineco iFloor. I tested it out on 4 different surfaces to see what this compact little floor washer could do. In the end, I have to say I was impressed with some aspects of the Tineco iFloor and underwhelmed by others. It may not be the right floor cleaner for everyone but for the price it may well, be worth keeping one around the house to quickly and thoroughly clean up spills, even if you already have another, larger, floor cleaner.

Very thorough review. I agree that battery power is convenient, but especially in devices relying on motors, never as powerful. You also did a great job of pointing out other downsides to battery powered devices.
It would be nice if the batteries were removable like they are with power tools
I have had one for a few years. Your review is 100% correct. Perfect for the 800-900 sq ft first floor if you want convenience of battery (ie we have both corded and cordless Miele vacs and it’s convenience vs power). If you’re a person that has hard floor you clean with swiffer mop heads or old fashioned sponge mop, this Tineco was a great upgrade without the bulk of the Hoover. Also my battery life is starting to decrease, so I’m now looking into battery replacement sooner than later which is neither cheap nor easy to do. But over the life (and continued life) it’s served us well. Thanks for a thorough and fair review!
With regard to your mat cleaning attempts - especially the 2nd one. That's not dirt. That's either discoloration, wearing off of the color coating or rubbing off of the bottoms of your flip-flops (and similar) shoes which is essentially black tire-like material. So I wouldn't expect it to lift that off at all. That said, I didn't see much cleaning done by the Tineco on any surface. In addition, the amount of water was minuscule when it comes to cleaning. I have a Bissell carpet spot cleaner that I've had for decades. It will deposit and suck up about a half gallon in just 10 minutes or so. Don't see how these are expected to clean without first using a lot of water.
The Tineco isn't going to do a restorative cleaning on any surface. It will pick up surface dirt/dust and there was a noticeable difference on the VCT but I wouldn't try to deep clean anything with it. Since making the video all I've used it for is cleaning up spills in the kitchen and it's really been convenient for that. I don't know that I would buy one just to have on hand for when spills happen but like any tool, once it's in your toolbox you'll find a use for it. Whether that's the intended use for this thing or not...I don't know.
I would always choose cordless over corded, power aside. Laptops and tablets outsell desktops for this reason.
Apples and oranges darling.
I miss your videos. Hope you and the family are doing well!
I own a tineco but I miss placed the instructions book that came with it and I would like to know how I can dismuntial this thing how can I get another institution book
Oh my goodness! Thank you SO very much for taking the time to make this video. I bought this based off of other RUclipsrs recommendations but I didn't really know how to use it.
It has been sitting in the corner since September 2022.
This video was so thorough and informative as the directions do lack a little (like you pointed out the max water button). I was not sure of the self clean either. You made it make sense.
My only question is when charging, should there be water/solution in the CWT?
Again, many thanks for this video!
You’re so welcome! I don’t think it makes any difference if there’s water in the clean water tank while charging. But I have found out since making the video that you need to clean out the waste tank after each use. And I don’t mean dump it out and rinse it, I mean CLEAN it. It gets super smelly if the waste tank isn’t clean and it sits for a while. Then, the next time you use it, it stinks up the whole room.
Thanks for the st8nk insight
Mine leaks if there is water in the CWT while charging. After one night there is a huge puddle in the tray 🙁
@dienosong that terrible. I make it a point to empty and clean it after each use. I only charge when it's empty.
@HowToCleanLikeAPro I put vinegar in the tank and let it soak. It takes all the stink away. I use the Crosswave, btw.
This just saved me 200.00 because I was going to purchase it. From I saw ive decided against it. Thank you for the information
Based on your demo, the Hoover cleans better. Thank you.
You’re welcome.
Is it safe for laminate flooring? Not using the max flow water button. Our tiling experts in our community say 'No." However your product says yes. Has anyone had flooring problems because of this product, like laminate flooring that becomes damaged because of using this product? Thanks!
Mine does not clean its self and now it won't stay on. A family member gave it to me. Now, I know why. Any ideas how to fix and fix it.
Awesome Review .. I think like you suggested in one of your other videos, scrub the floor with any brush and then suck up the left over water with one of these . I think I’m buying the floormate based on your reviews .. Hoover should really thank you ., thanks 🙏 from me
The floormate seemed to have done better
That’s the same as what we have in the uk called the Beldray quick & dry and mine has just died yesterday the brush roll has seized up solid 2.5 years into owning it, i purchased mine in 2019
It’s a lie you have to sweep or vac before you use it or it’s disgusting to clean the machine and dirt tank, I have this.
I don’t think anybody claimed that it wouldn’t be disgusting to clean the machine or recovery tank so I’m not sure what the lie is that you speak of.
Just bought one this morning. This video was very helpful 👍🏻 THANK YOU
What do you recommend for cleaning floor tile and grout?
Of the few of these machines that I’ve tried I like the Hoover Floormate the best but you still need to scrub the grout manually if you want to get it clean.
I just bought the Tineco, and now wish I had seen this video first. ugh!
Great, honest review. So, is the Hoover Floor Mate the current best option for cleaning tile and grout between yearly professional cleanings?
I doubt it. There has to be something better out there but the Floormate is best option that I have bought and tested so far.
@@HowToCleanLikeAPro - I agree. It shouldn’t be that hard. Most of the units I have look at just don’t have the power, suction or “heft” to clean correctly.
I’m interested to see if they get a lot better at a higher price point. That’s going to have to wait, though.
@@HowToCleanLikeAPro - have tried any of the Karcher machines?
No. Is there anything you recommend?
Can you please do a review of the Bissell Hydrosteam floor cleaner?
someone told me to use a carpet cleaner on my tile kitchen floor, because it scrubs, has heat and sucks up. what do you think?
Very few carpet cleaners are suitable for hard floors because there is no gap or squeegee between the nozzle and the floor. They may scratch and won't eat larger debris. Carpet cleaners are usually heavier and awkward in tight spaces like around the toilet. There is at least one machine from bissell with a dedicated hardfloor nozzle which is sold as the hydrowave in europe an the jetscrub in australia, though the hard floor part is not always included in the box and was unavailable in the uk. A carpet cleaner and the now discontinued floormates can soak the floor and pick up the dirt in a second pass, which may be a gamechanger for heavy stains while all the crosswave type devices are just a moist mop. The iFloor and the crosswave on the other hand can vacuum eg breadcrumbs at the same time which the older floormate can't.
I followed step by step and just tried to turn it on, but it’s not turning on. I just put it on the charger. Can I ask how long you charged it for before you were able to try it out.
I don’t remember exactly, but I think it took a couple of hours
Can you try the Tineco steam
just brought the tineco love it!!
Does it work on carpet?
Great video, I just got one, but I don't know what is the brush for (3-in-1) cleaning tool
It’s for cleaning out the recovery tank. If you don’t clean it out really well between uses, it gets smelly and it will stink up the whole room the next time you turn it on.
Oh 👍 well, thanks
No
Great video. I have the Crosswave Pet Pro and find it really cleans my tile floors well. Are you able to demonstrate with the professional truckmount machine you have and compared it to the crosswave, hoover etc how much more better it cleans floors in a cleaning test?
There’s no comparison. It would be like pitting a Power Wheels up against Lamborghini.
@@HowToCleanLikeAPro that’s true. Would you be able to tell a difference visually though?
If you work the process from start to finish there's no reason you couldn't get the same results with one of these consumer machines that a pro would get with a truckmount. Extractors like the Crooswave and Floormate don't have heat and they don't scrub very well so you'll have to compensate for where they fall short in other ways like manual scrubbing, chemical dwell time, etc. and it will take longer but I think it can be done.
@@HowToCleanLikeAPro That’s great to know that a cheap machine can somewhat still achieve the results of a super expensive machine. Makes it seem worth it in the end.
@HowToCleanLikeAPro i would love to see you work with a company to design a household cleaning extractor for daily / weekly / monthly cleaning, utilising your time served experience & expertise of commercial cleaning extractors and massively improving the design, quality, accessibility & affordability of household cleaning extractors. As someone who is neurodiverse, autistic & on the spectrum I personally struggle with the noise from vacuum cleaners, extractors & power tools - when you said that the Tineco was quiet I was like NO way is that quiet. Abit like noisy combustion car / bus engines versus the quiet noise of new electric vehicles - if they can make new cars / buses / vehicles with minimal noise from the engine surely that engineering wisdom can be applied to new vacuums, extractors & power tools.... Here's to companies, designers & teams listening to and learning from feedback. I'd also love to see designers / manufacturers work with professional cleaners, people with disabilities, neurodiverse individuals and more to help them design better products 🙌
Dear How To Clean Like A Pro and anyone reading i hope all is well. I just want to say that Jesus Christ loves and cares for you. If you haven't done so please accept Him as your savior and Lord. And remember to enjoy and cherish all that is good and right in life for we only get one life and we don't know what tomorrow will bring.
