Does it clean grout?

Yes it comes with a hard rubber brush tip that directs the steam and scrubs the grout very well. Makes cleaning tile floor and seams between shower/tub/sinks and the floor or wall very easy.

Yes and very well. Use the brush nozzle and wipe dry after steaming. We have bathroom tile floors and it works great.

Absolutely not. It will get it moist and make it easier for you to scrub the grout out. But will not lift it out.

This does a great job SURFACE cleaning. With white tiles, 2 toddlers (and the possibility of flung baby food) and 1 dog (and the possibility of dog slobber and/or other dog "liquids"), um, I'm not POSITIVE it will get down into the grout quite enough for those cleaning tasks. Perhaps a real live maid with a bucket and a scrub brush would be needed? Hard to tell.

A little. It loosens some stains. But its no fault of the machine. Grout is pourous; it absorbs. So the only way to really clean grout is manually with a commercial cleaner, or with bleach and vinegar and stuff.

No. We have used it on tile and it does the most superficial wiping of the floor and doesn't clean the grout.

Removes surface dirt, but doesn't "scrub" grout completely clean like a toothbrush and elbow grease. But once you do that, would probably keep it clean.

I have used it on my kitchen that has ceramic tile floors. It does not really get the grout clean. I have found that a grout cleaner like Zep is the only way if you want the grout really bright. You can get Zep grout cleaner from Amazon. The Hoover cleaner is a fantastic machine especially for carpet, but I wouldn't buy it just for tile.

It does a great job of cleaning tile and it is easy to use. It does okay on grout, but it won't remove heavy stains.

It probably would... the bristles are very stiff and it would be hard to use to clean grout using a drill.

Yes I think it will clean it. I bought the one for tile. It is very coarse so maybe careful with your floor. It is powerful

It does a great job sanitizing the grout lines and cleans them some too but if your grout is really dirty or discolored your best bet is to use a grout cleaner.

We never used it for just grout. We have a ceramic tile floor in our kitchen and bathroom. It is the only steam cleaner that works for us. It is a heavy duty cleaner and does a great job. All I can say is the tile and grout are clean when we're done.

Yes, the bristles hold up. Yes, the brushes scrub dirt and soap scum off of grout. I like to use Kaboom to help loosen the scum, but don't beathe the fumes.

Yes, I have porcelain tile and it did a good job cleaning the floor and didn't hurt the grout in any way.

It was satisfactory on tile. The brushes don't really scrub grout effectively because grout sits a lower level than the surrounding tile, so the brushes don't really scrub the grout. Over time, the grout gets cleaner, but dirty grout will need to be cleaned manually.

I haven't found ANY steam mop that will 'clean' grout very well. It will clean fairly well if you let the mop sit on an area for a few seconds, but it won't scrub the grout lines if that's what you're looking for. For that matter neither does my hard floor cleaner by another well known floor cleaning company.

This does not clean grout per se. It overall cleans the floor, but grout is in a depression that it cannot reach. I have found that buying a good hard grout brush and using 409 and wiping with a clean microfiber cloth works well, but is a lot of work.
