does it work on tile and grout cleaning

Yes, but you need to be very careful when cleaning grout with a power operated brush. Make sure the grout is sealed properly with grout sealer (it will have clear or satin sheen on surface of the grout). Another way to check if your grout is sealed is to put a drop of water on it. If the water repelled or sits on the grout it is sealed; otherwise if not sealed it will absorb into the grout. Be sure to clean using "light pressure" when cleaning grout and use a detergent that is specifically designed for cleaning grout. Using too much pressure when cleaning will damage the grout.

Yes! Quite well. I hit the shower with it every few months and the difference is remarkable. The only problem areas deep in are corners where the brush can't reach.

Yes, it does work on tile and in the grout lines. It wears down fairly fast because the friction causes heat, the heat warps the nylon bristles and you end up with a fairly flat brush. So it does work for a while. .... I would say about 15 to 20 minutes of work before it does not reach into the grout lines. Hence why I purchased 2 of them in the first place.

I use mine on tiled floors almost daily, it does a great job. I put a little Lysol in the water, works wonderfully for pet odors. It does get the grout as well. Love it.

I used this first and it did a very good job on the tile but didn't get the grout as clean as it could be, however, it did get it a bit cleaner than it was. After a few more cleanings it may be better. Depends on where it is, kitchens are harder to keep grout cleaner, that room (mine) is in use constantly.

To clean grout requires a special tool. Just using the steam mop will not clean up the grout.

Used on kitchen grout, counter & nasty floor grout. Yes worked. I'm sure it will work on bathroom grout, however as your probably aware tedious work. Its a great tool for many crevices.

It worked for me on white grout. after I used this product to clean the grout I died grout gray.

It works very well over grout but the most important think to do is to make sure the grout and tile are very clean. Clean it with steel wool and tsp rinse with clean water each time and repeat 2 more times Good luck!

Didn't buy it for that and haven't tried it on grout. I clean my grout with water, oxy clean and dawn dish soap with a stiff brush..

I just used it on some very dirty floor grout. The grout is much cleaner, but it is tedious cleaning the grout lines and the steamer is pretty heavy and 'clunky', but it did the job.

Its not great for grout, but that's not really its purpose. It does a terrific job cleaning my ceramic tile, couldn't be happier with it. It will get up spills and light surface dirt on grout, but if you're looking for something that deep cleans grout, then this isn't the product for you. Good luck!

I have no idea if it would work. It is designed to be used with the cleaning machine. However I didn't feel this product did anything at all for the grout. I still had to hand scrub it to clean it. Don't waste your money.

Yes it does. I used mine on both ceramic and porcelain tiles and got good results.

We don't use it on tile/grout...only on the glass shower doors (and sometimes our car windshield). Awesome for the shower doors. Pretty cool on the windshield for at least a couple weeks.

I used it on my travertine and marble tile grout without any problem. I suggest using it in an inconspicuous spot just to be sure first.

I have used the machine to scrub my synthetic kitchen "tile look" floor. It does that well and gets back most all of the water. I don't think I would buy the machine just to scrub tile or restore grout's appearance. There are cheaper and more effective ways to go for that specialty.

I never used it on grout or shower tile. However i think it would work great on the tile. We use this product for my dads headstone which is granite and it works amazing. Hence the name :)

I have ceramic tile in my kitchen & bathrooms & it seems to be cleaning the grout just fine. If you have something heavy just hit the trigger that gives you a big blast of steam. The more you hit the trigger the more water you use but it gets heavy grime up good especially on hard wood.
