While the appliance heated up in about 30secs, it took another 30secs or so for the steam to start coming out properly. I started using this steam cleaner by mopping textured wooden floors. Bissell PowerFresh Slim Steam Mop Performance – Works well but some of the tools aren’t very durable Still, the tools are all easy to attach, and don’t need additional joints here (like with the Russell Hobbs Neptune mop). What is more, I noticed the Bissell steam cleaner’s crevice tool had stiffer bristles but seemed to wear down more easily. While this is not necessarily a problem, the Russell Hobbs mop is half the price and comes with more attachments. These tools appear fairly standard and interchangeable with, for example, those of the Russell Hobbs Neptune Multifunction Steam Mop. The plastic case contains four further accessories: a scraper tool, crevice and round brushes, and a detail nozzle. The main mop head comes with two detachable pads, one of which has coarser fibres in it for better scrubbing of the floor.

There are no minimum or maximum levels indicated on the tank. The water tank is at the top of the appliance and easy to fill. The blue light tells you that the mop is ready to go The mop head is easily manoeuvrable, although I did notice dirt build-up on particular areas of the pad. The other accessories can fit straight onto the main unit or the stick, and come in a plastic case that can be attached to the bottom of the main unit for storage. The silver-coloured stick and blue-and-grey mop head feel light and sturdy, and are easy to assemble.

The PowerFresh Slim Steam doubles as a mop and a handheld device, but its uses as a handheld are limited here to four small attachments, and it can only tackle hard floors as a mop. This is the steam cleaner-only mop option from Bissell, to complement the range that includes the Bissell Vac & Steam 1977E and the handheld Bissell Steam Shot 2635E.
