Maybe it will,take me a while to get use to it, but does it mop up spills?

Thanks again for this OP. I have bought it for my mum and she is delighted with it. She suffers from chronic sciatica and struggles with chores (also refuses help!) and she says it is working like a dream for her. Would never have afforded it at rrp. Not sure if you are using it correctly geennaa? Mum says it's effortless!

No it's not a mop, you can't wring it out, I just use a floor cloth for any spills anyway to save getting the old mop out.

Argos are aware that the wrong mop is being sold.

They are fully aware of this - it isn't a glitch. I was told by someone fairly high up in Argos that the substitution is a deliberate one by Steamworks because they do not have any of their own model so have done a deal with Vax to supply these instead. Vax readily agreed because it is shifting a vast amount of their overstocks - and causes an ongoing surge in sales of the 'consumables'.....and hasnt it worked well!

Retail is cynical and honestly doesn't ever do anything unless it suits them. Had it been just a glitch it would have been fixed long ago!

I'm guessing you need to sit the mop onto the plastic carpet glider rather than it actually clicking into place, if you know what I mean.

I could be wrong but it seems to work.

I only my steam mop our on sealed slate and wood floors. We have an oiled oak floor and I use a specialist floor cleaning product for this. Too expensive to risk ruining.

Thanks to OP, I managed to pick up last one in Reading. I had £12.50 worth of points on my Nectar card, so only cost £12.50, so very pleased. Not had a chance to test it yet (will only be using for lino floors in bathroom and kitchen), but am sure will be better than a 'normal' mop. Thanks again
