Black&Decker FSM1615

In the line of steam mops from the American manufacturer Black&Decker, this model belongs to the junior solutions that received a reasonable price tag. The device is made in the brand's characteristic blue and white colours, is lightweight (2.7 kg) and has a 6-metre power cord that provides an acceptable range from a single socket.

Balance of power and gentle impact

For the "preparation" of steam in the Black&Decker FSM1615, a 1300-watt heating element is responsible with the obligatory by today's standards option — overheating protection. Thanks to it, within half a minute after switching on, the mop will be ready for work.

The steam power is not adjustable, as, for example, in the Black&Decker FSM1616, but it is stated that the model is suitable for processing any hard surfaces, from delicate wooden floors to tiles. Steam allows you to eliminate most pathogens, and microfibre fixed on a rotary rectangular nozzle (2 pcs are included) cleans light dirt. According to users, if you use a mop specifically to maintain cleanliness, then it handles the task very well.

For any water

The model is equipped with a detachable water tank, which simplifies the filling process. However it is quite small (350 mL), so you will have to add liquid often (every 14 minutes). At the same time, the tank is made of translucent plastic, therefore, it is not difficult to visually control the filling level. Plus, a filtration system is provided to protect against scale, which means that the device is not picky about the quality of water and should not suffer due to its excessive hardness.

Black&Decker FSM1615 is a good model for residents of small apartments (where the surface area to be treated is small) and all those who are looking for an inexpensive steam mop for every day.
