My fiancé and I purchased our first home early last year and were initially delighted that the majority of the living space was hardwood and tile (because carpet can be kinda gross). I soon learned, however, that those hard surfaces only look chic and stylish when they’re clean and they require a lot of cleaning thanks to our affinity for cooking, gardening and the in-and-out daily routine of our big, dumb, lovable dog. Then, one day, the heavens opened up and I was introduced to the Shark VACMOP Pro.

With its cordless handling and incredibly affordable price tag, the Shark VACMOP Pro has wowed thousands of happy Amazon purchasers (myself included). It features surprisingly strong suction powered by a 110-volt battery, and a thoughtful row of LED lights along its front side so you can steer it into tight spots and see exactly what you're sucking up. Dirt, debris, pet hair and more is trapped in the magical compartments built directly onto the thick disposable pad (which blew my mind the first time I used one).

Once the debris is sucked up simply hit the spray button to evenly distribute your cleaning solution and allow the pad to do the rest. And, since the Shark VACMOP Pro is specifically designed for hard floors, the specialized mop pads don’t get too beat up during the cleaning process allowing you to get a few uses out of each one before you need to swap it out. Afterward, when you decide the mop pad is truly beat, you simply release the pad with a click of a button, disposing both the contents of the vacuum and the mop pad straight into your trash without having to grimace or touch anything icky.

If you’re wondering whether or not a vacuum mop combo is worth it, I am here to deliver a resounding “Yes it is!”. The Shark VacMop Pro isn’t just a gracious time saver - it is a bona fide workhorse when it comes to wet and dry messes. Add in its cordless convenience, lightweight design, and disposable mop pad and you have a mop vac that you will actually brag about. (Which I do. Far more often than I probably should.)

It is worth noting that the Shark VACMOP Pro is best for hard surfaces and hard surfaces only. If you're on the market for a tougher wet/dry vac that can conquer carpets and area rugs you should check out the Bissell Cross Wave.
