The Shark Klik n' Flip Automatic Steam Mop is necessary for anyone seeking efficient hard floor cleaning. You can clean twice as much flooring with double-sided, large cleaning pads by simply flipping the floorhead.

The six-meter-long cord ensures you can cover a vast area effortlessly.

Customer review: "The Shark Klick n Flip is by far the best steam mop I have used. It's comfortable to handle, the swivel head allows you to get into corners, and the clothes are large and easy to change. You get plenty of control over the amount of steam you want, so you don't end up with excess water on your flooring. I put off cleaning my laminate floor so as to give the Shark a proper test. It made swift work of it, leaving it shiny and smear-free. On the downside, as others have commented, it's annoying that it doesn't stand upright when not in use, and the power cord could be bit longer. Overall though it does a great job at a fair price."

Customer review: "This is about the third one I have bought. The first was for me and the rest as a gift for friends who kept borrowing mine because they loved it so much! It is a huge help and is easy to use. I admit that I would love it even more if they made a cordless version, but you can't have everything! The additional attachments make it a great all-rounder."
