I intend to use this thing fairly often, how easy is it to get replacement pads and brushes? And do the replacements actually work well? |

The wool pads snaps on the floor brush 3 of em in a triangle partern .Just put the 3 brushes on the machine and add the wool pads they snap on easy.The brush are gentle enough for floors no scratch as long you keep the machine mooving and use it properly.The waxx will be ok in a mist sprayer bottle apply by spray and pass on floor whit buffer. |

I don't have a hardwood floor polisher recommend. My house has 400-500 square feet of high grade oak. We polished it but it builds up.
We use a Bissell symphony newer version is a crosswave. It uses distilled water and cleans awesome. To be honest every 6 months we use symphony and it lightens wood and is healthier. It cleans wood but doesn't water dries quickly. It works better than any polisher and keeps wood clean. I'm just throwing out my experience. I also used bona but thought I'd put 2 cents in. Les |

I'm actually picking up one of these myself today- Bissell spinwave. It comes with two sets of pads (soft set for hardwood and other floors and a set with microfiber scrubbers for sticky messes). There is a reservoir for water and your choice of cleaning solution. It doesn't spray continuously, only when you momentarily activate the spray. I have some luxury vinyl planking on my lower lever and in my kitchen which cannot be cleaned with steam. I plan on using this for those areas and my sealed wood floors in the living room, dining room and foyer area.
Reviews on this are actually much better than the crosswave or Hoover floormate. This weekend, Biglots has 20% (Saturday for rewards members and Sunday for all). They carry this product in many of their stores for $99.99. I have $15 in reward discounts, so I'm gong today to pick it up for $67.99 plus tax. CLICK HERE TO GO TO got2bjennyg's LINK

Ok so this really seems like the way to go. One last question what is the difference between the B series polishers is the 7 not as good as the 8, is the 9 better than all of them? Or is it just colors? |

Ok, I'm looking at one on eBay now, it's Gold so it's a later one. It's still a B8 though is there any draw backs to this model? I wish someone on here had one for sale. |
