I have one
Just a very basic one
Good for all uncarpeted floors but doesn't really clean carpets that well
Also need to be left somewhere to drain when done - you get a wet puddle even if you think it's empty
Would I buy the one I have again? No, not a chance
Would I buy any other make? Nope, again
For me they are not worth the effort

I got the Hometek Light & Easy from a recommendation on this site and find it brilliant for a quick way to do hard floors, particularly good on tiles and 'dry' enough to be safe on laminate. Don't get any puddles but you do need to keep it scale free. I just spray it with Viakal.
