Does your mop making a loud clicking noise the whole time you use it? Mine does and I can't use it with the dog in the house. Also can't get handle up

No...it does't. My handle is ok except the cord handle broken.. I cant wind it up... But still love it.

Yes it does, that's the noise of scaling water frI'm the tank for steaming..? I think. It does not bother me and my dog is fine with the noise . Handle; mine is all the way up; maybe needs some twisting and pulling at the same time?

I had a hard time with the handle at first but I finally got it to extend. Now I just feel like I cant put too much pressure on it. No noise but it does seem to really put out a ton of water with hot steam and I can't steam fabric because it leaks. And the pad gets too wet and heavy. It works for some functions but not the best product out there. I guess you get what you pay for.

Hello and yes the mop does make a loud noise but it gets louder if there is no water in it and the handle is very complicated to understand but I think you have to unscrew it from the bottom to a just but yes it is very complicated. i bought 4 of these mops and if you are not gentle with it they will brake very fast.

On my sweeper the wand has suction all the time. I didn't do anything to turn it on. Sounds like something is wrong with it so call Dyson.

No that is not normal. I can see and feel the steam coming out of my mop. Make sure you have plent of water in the holder, plug it in and wait until you can see the steam coming out. You may need to hit it gently on the floor if there is no steam after maybe 10 minutes. If none of this works, you may have a defective mop. Mine steams lots! Gay

I am sorry to hear this. Like I said before, the one we have is very good. My wife uses it just about everyday. I really don't know where to go to repair your mop bucket, hopefully Amazon can connect you with the maker.

It didn't really steam up. When I touched the mop cover, it was just a little warm. My old shark mop literally had steam coming out all over the place and it was really hot steam. Rather than return it and have to search for another one, I kept it since it did clean the floor (I wet the mop cover before I put it on), just don't think it's sanitizing. Will eventually get another shark mop in the future, probably in about a year since it'll cost over $100 and this one cost only $49. Besides, I have a dog and the floor needs to be mopped again after he's been inside the house 3 hours. Thank goodness I'm not a germaphobe. It didn't really steam up.

I feel your pain. I am handicapped and tried to sit to shake. I went on the deck and shook over the railing and dog hair and dust came back all over my face and clothes. Then I stood, reached over the deck railing, holding the mop head lower than me and shook. That worked okay. I love the mop but it takes a lot of shaking to get it to release the dust and hair. If you can lean out the window and hold the mop with the head lower than you it might work.

I think it's a screwed up design, I have to get a screwdriver and flip the lever underneath to let the handle down and hope you don't push it all the way back up or you will have to do it again.My vacuum guy is looking at mine to see if anything can be done to fix it.

I love my sprite for the way I can maneuver it around my house. As for the noise, I am not the best one to ask as I am sort of deaf. It bothers my dog when I vacuum, but she's spoiled and resents my doing something that doesn't involve her. She is the reason I got the vac in the first place. Sorry I couldn't be of help.

YES same thing with me. I thought the steam mop would work good,but left my floors looking like there is a film all over. I've tried to use vintage water and tea water,and floor wax, it still has it,so I think the steam mop ruined my floor. My husband is very upset to.He spent many hours refinishing that floor.I'm still looking for a solution and if I find one I will repost.

I absolutely adore my Toshiba, but this noise is driving me INSANE. Figured there was just some fur in there (I have two cats), but I'm glad to know that it's not just mine. I'm gonna try the oil thing. The tap didn't really work.

My wife thinks this machine works... I am not sold on it yet after having it for 6months in our pets room. I would suggest getting some cloth or felt to sit it on because on anything above low this machine makes noise. I am buying a new filter to give it a full year of testing.

I'm sorry, but we've only been using it for about a week. I can say that in the last week, we have had that same issue. I was hoping it was just am issue with the vacuum getting to know its surroundings, but it seems like that may not be it.

Yes I just received mine and right out of the box making a loud clicking noise, what did you do? Help

I don't know. I did not have that problem. Some things to consider: Short in wire, the GFI isn't on. Perhaps calling customer service can help. I found that most helpful on issues relating to other items I had purchased through their website. The mop we have works like a charm. Good luck.

Just a quick note - I have this Electrolux, hard wood floors, and a dog. I also have the Dyson "animal". I am STILL looking for a solution as neither of these do the job in spite of the expense and hype! If anyone out there has found a real solution - please share!

So what is your opinion about the refurbished mop? I wouldn't mind one if all the kinks have been fixed.

I just got my unit also about two weeks ago and notice a somewhat annoying creeking and clicking sound with every rotation. I have written to the sellers about this but have not received any reply. Will have to call to get an answer.
