can you clean floor grout?

My sister has one and uses it for everything. I think the one I bought is defective though. Steam only lasts a couple of minutes so it's pretty useless.

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

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..

Really well. I cleaned my grout before I got the machine and it had kept it nice. I have found that I do need to do a clear water rinse or the tile is a bit streaky.

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.

We did not use it to clean grout. I use Mr. Clean's 'magic eraser' for all my grout and am very satisfied with that.

Yes. It works on most stains. I say most, because I think the only thing any cleaner has a tough time with is grease. But this works better than any other grout cleaner I've used.

Yes the cleaning pads are mildly spongy enough to contour into grout lines, it also comes with an attachable brush that would probably work on real tough, embedded stains, although I have not used it yet.

It doesn't seem to really scrube the grout as you would by hand. It might "clean" the grout if the grout dirt is loose enough for it to be sucked up, not scrubed out.

Kimo, I think the machine does a good job with the grout cleaning, but I do have one extenuating circumstance. I purposely used dark gray grout when we had this tile installed. This is a high traffic area plus where we feed two dogs. When I finish cleaning the floor all of the grout lines are consistently damp which shows they have been scrubbed. I'm satisfied. Hope this helps. Judy

Yes, any hard surface can be cleaned with a cleaning pad/rag on the mop head. There is an attachment with a squeegee to clean glass. To clean grout joints the plastic brushes wear very quickly because you are literally rubbing them on "60 grit" sand in the grout, much like trying to rub the brushes on 60-grit sandpaper. The brass brush works well enough. It's a great machine, but the segmented handle has a bit more flex than I'd like. Just make sure that you use distilled water to avoid mineral build-up from regular tap water in the boiler.

The handle isn't overly strong, so I think you'd be best with a short brush where you could exert some force to clean floor grout and tiles.

Of course, it's like a paint, before using try cleaning your grout with a Mr. Clean magic eraser. It will work wonders, you may not need to use the Grout Refresh.

Disappointingly this machine does NOT clean grout. The McCulloch MC-1275 Heavy-Duty Steam Cleaner, also available on Amazon, does a great job.

Hi Deeda - Yes this should aid with cleaning the grout in your bathroom! Included with this unit is a grout brush you can attach as well.

Yes you can. I use it on my tile floors too - they come out beautiful and no sticky residue. Surpasses any other floor cleaner I've tried.

A late answer to an old question but I need to emphasize DO NOT use a steam mop on any wood flooring that has any wax, floor shine or cleaner applied to it. I only use our steam mop on tile (and no it does NOT clean the grout.)
