Hello, High gloss black tiles...We used a Tineco to try and found that it leaves streak marks and would leave pools of water in the parts of the tiles where they have not been layed evenly therefore drying with water patches all over the house.
Has this brand been tested on: High gloss black tiles and uneven tiles at all please? Thanks.
Hi Bec, I think this floor cleaner F100 works at its best on a flooring that is evenly laid and very flat. The rubber floor we have is a matt finish and a very flat, even surface and the roller grips evenly and the water flows and suctions evenly. There are two options on the flow of water and neither leaves streak marks on my flooring. This is down to the amount of water flow from the unit and the ability of the unit to suction and vacuum well. However, we have small sections of matt terrazo tiles in the bathrooms and the tiles have large grout lines. The cleaners action is not as smooth due to the uneven surface but it does not leave streak marks - it just feels clunky. The timber flooring is older and very uneven and I am careful to clean in the direction of the boards. The roller does grip the boards well despite the unevenness. There are no streak marks or pooling but again the action is very clunky compared to the rubber. So, I’m not sure if this answers your query on how this would go on gloss tiles as I think it is a combination of the flooring laid and the ability of the roller to grip and suction well. I do rate the unit highly just for the mechanics of what it does of rolling and suctioning - the rubber floor is fantastic, the wood floor works well, it is just a clunky experience. Maybe ask Hizero and see what they come back with as it must have been tested on gloss tiles?
Hi Bec thanks for the question, the Hizero will not leave pools of water or streaks on all types of floors. What's important to remember with the Hizero is that it does not use vac technology and has no suction. It uses a polymer roller to sweep up debris and mop the floor at the same time. It picks up almost all of the water it puts into the floor as the polymer roller is much more absorbent than microfibre as used by all other brands. As mentioned by Rhonda uneven floors do create some challenges for the Hizero but cleaning from different angles can often resolve this issue. Best to speak with our live chat team online and upload some pics of your floor and we can advise how we think the Hizero will work on your floors. regard Dino MD
What is the difference between the F500 & the F100? I have large grey tiles, is one better suited than the other for this purpose?
Hi Shay both perform the same, the F100 has larger water tanks and different design. Both models would be suitable for your large tiles. Speak with our chat team online for more information, external link
Is this good for floating floors?
Hi Catherine, yes perfect for floating floors as it does not leave much water behind only a very slight film, Please speak with our online chat team or call us for more information 1800 662 301 regards Dino MD
I live in highrise building, the patio area has external texture finish on the tiles as they are non slip. Will the Hizero mop be durable enough for these as well as my indoor tiles?
I use mine on tiles. Timber floors and floor boards. The only thing it doesn’t do is carpet
Hi Linda, thanks for the question, it will work on textured tiles but it may cause the roller to wear out much quicker than regular smooth tiles. Please speak with our chat team online through our website and you can upload some images and we can provide some more feedback. But generally the Hizero is not designed for outdoor use. external link
We just opened the box and installed everything. The lights on the display do not turn on. However pressing the power button started the machine. But now it's just not stopping even after pressing power.

Can you put any cleaning solution in with the clean water or does it have to be a special solution?
You purchase a solution from Hizero to use. The company says not to add other solutions. I have often used just the water and not added the cleaning solution and still been very happy.
Hello Ben only Hizero detergent or plain water please. thanks Dino MD
Hi can you tell me if this cleans vinyl floorboards not smooth ones either thank you
I have regular tiled floors
Hi Dan yes the Hizero will clean textured surfaces also. Even and flat floors is best, so something like slate would not be suitable for the Hizero. cheers Dino MD external link
Can the hizero cleaner be used on carpet?
Hi Josie, no carpets or rugs, hard floors only. Please chat with our online team 9am-1pm today if you have further questions. external link
Can this be used to clean the Tile Grout?
It will clean the tiles and the grout as long as the grout is at the same level as the tiles. It will not restore discoloured grout or remove inground dirt. This will require elbow grease instead. thanks
How is this for edge to edge and corner cleaning?
Hi Banshee, it will reach within 6mm of corners and skirting boards, please speak with our online chat team for further information, thanks, Dino MD

Do I have to soak the grey roller in water before each use?
Hi Aya, the cleaning roller needs to be soft during use. It will only need resoaking if it dries out after a long period of non use. external link regards Dino MD
This is ok for carpet vacium also?
Unfortunately not.
