Shark^® Genius^™ Steam Pocket^® Mop

The Shark^® Genius^™ Steam Pocket^® Mop System is our most advanced floor system ever, with next-generation features like the Genius^™ mop head with Touch-Free Technology, Dirt Grip^™ pads, and Steam Blaster^™ technology.

The Genius^™ Steam Pocket^® Mop not only deep cleans your floors amazingly well, but also sanitizes* sealed hard floor surfaces without chemicals, when and where you need it. The completely redesigned Direct Steam Channeling system delivers steam directly onto stains.

*Sanitization studies were conducted under controlled test conditions. Household conditions and results may vary. With Genius^™ mop head in "HI" mode only when used with steam mop. Not when using Steam Blaster^™. See Owner's Guide for instructions.

The Shark^® Genius^™ mop head incorporates many innovative features to make cleaning your home easier than ever before. Shark’s Touch-Free Technology means there’s no more wringing out mops or wrestling with dirty pads. Quickly attach a Dirt Grip^™ pad and start mopping in seconds. When you are done, just pinch the pad release button and the used pad falls away automatically — you’ll never have to touch a dirty pad again.

You’ll get extra-targeted steam power with our Steam Blaster^™ technology. Just flip the Genius^™ mop head over and tilt the handle back to activate the Steam Blaster^™ for a powerful burst of targeted steam. The Steam Blaster^™ attacks tough, stuck-on messes, and easily loosens debris from grout lines, crevices, and corners.

The model number appears on the back of the main body, usually printed on a silver label. The model number is also on the bottom of your box, near the barcode.
