How does this work on cleaning grout?

It works really well. The only complaint I would have is that the grout brush only lasted 1 cleaning. I will have to order another, or use the steam attachment and buy a nylon brush along with steam.

It will clean anything that has a greasy build up. I've used it in the bathroom in the tub and got soap scum and that ring around the tub out. However, I have not used it to clean grout. The product is not chlorine bleach based so I doubt it would take care of grout, as far as taking away stains. I hope this is helpful.

The Oreck comes with a little brush attachment for grout. My grout is all dark, so it's kind of hard to tell, but I know it is sanitizing it and getting rid of mildew. I think to be truly clean, though, you would need to wipe with a cloth after you run the steamer over the grout lines. I like this steamer a lot--it really works well on my tile floor. It is heavy, but I think that makes it clean better.

I bought it to get rid of mold stain on grout. It didn't do a thing. I haven't tried it on anything else.

I used this product on non sanded grout. I sprayed the product. No issues with cleanup. Just followed the directions.

I would say "yes" if it's a clean app.of grout. So worth a try. I've tried many grout cleaners and this is the best so far! This will be my "go to" grout from now on in.

I would not recommend this product. It did not clean the grout. For me it was a waste of money and time. It did not damage my granite tiles.

I cleaned the grout on my floors with scrubbing bubbles and it worked well.

There is a limit how much it can clean the grout. If it clean (WHITE) then it keeps them clean and white but if it is already dark/dirty it wont make them white again! But it does clean quite well. Remember it is a compact unit and it does not compare with large floor units (industrial type)

It does. The secret is to follow the directions and give it enough time. Best grout cleaner ever!

Just sprinkle on the carpet and work in with either a hand brush for small areas, or rent the Host carpet cleaning machine for a whole room clean. This would not work on tile grout. The product looks like sawdust.

Not sure the grout in the 8 year old house we purchased was ever sealed. The bissel steamer cleaned some of the stains on the grout but in some areas it still needs to be cleaned with a scrubber brush. It did a beautiful job on the tile though.

I love this and have given 2 as gifts I love it that much! For stubborn grout buy AWESOME cleaning concentrate and for pennies it cleans grout amazingly well! I buy that at Dollar General for $3 as bottle (concentrate so you only use a little per sonic bottle and fill the rest with warm water. When the pads get dirty you need to change to a clean pad and it WILL clean grout amazingly well. Spray clorox water on very stubborn grout stains, wait 5 min and use sonic scrubber. Love mine!!!

I tried the steamer today on my grout just to answer your question...and I'm still not sure I can. I found that the steam only loosens the dirt, you have to wipe it afterward so I am not sure if that is much of a help. I did find, however, that it worked well along the edges of my floor, up near baseboards and along caulking by the shower and tub. I wish I could be more helpful but I guess the answer is really what you already knew...steam is not the greatest grout cleaner unless you continue to use the good old fashioned "elbow grease" it usually takes to clean it. Maybe if it were used on grout from the beginning when it is first laid, it would be the way to keep it looking new. But the grout I have is at least 5 years old.

Yes, it does clean grout. I could not believe how well it cleaned the bathroom tile grout, it was like new after it had been cleaned.

I used this product a year ago. I cleaned the old grout with a small brush first but I did not remove any old grout . It worked great! A year later it still look like new.

Disappointingly this machine does NOT clean grout. The McCulloch MC-1275 Heavy-Duty Steam Cleaner, also available on Amazon, does a great job.
