The S8001 Steam & Scrub is an all-in-one floor tool featuring a dual-rotational head system. The motor assembly is designed to provide 150 RPM of scrubbing action, which helps manage stuck-on messes without requiring heavy manual effort. The housing is constructed from reinforced high-impact polymers, and the unit features a 320ml water reservoir for steam generation.
Mechanical Features and Output
Technical data indicates the internal boiler reaches temperatures between 100°C and 105°C at the exit point, supporting a high level of cleanliness on tile and hardwood. The double-sided pads allow for more surface area coverage before a pad change is required. To maintain the integrity of the steam manifold, distilled water is recommended to prevent mineral buildup from obstructing the flow.
Specifications include a 22-foot power cord and a glass-filled nylon hinge joint designed to withstand over 10,000 flex cycles. While the motor provides high torque for scrubbing, it performs most consistently when allowed to glide across the floor rather than being subjected to heavy downward pressure on high-friction surfaces. The LED headlights are a functional addition, helping to identify missed spots or crystalline residue in dimly lit areas.
For those who need a more versatile tool for vertical surfaces like grout and curtains, the Schenley 2-in-1 Steamer includes a detachable handheld unit.
Keeping hard floors sanitized is a key part of maintaining a healthy household, and you can find various specialized tools in the steam mops category.
