For the past couple years I’ve been using a Shark Light and Easy Steam Mop. It has done a good job, but I have found myself frustrated waiting for it to warm up. I have even plugged it in while I clean another room and come back to find it not fully up to the full steam temperature. Once it reached the temperature I wanted it at – I would be able to mop.
The Agile will work on carpet, fabric, wood, tile and even laminate. In the past I had been worried about using the steam mops for laminate floors. The stairs to our basement have older laminate so I’m usually at a loss on what to use on them. I was very happy to find that the Agile was a great way to clean this space in our house.
There are several things that the HAAN Agile offers – so many that I even put them in a vlog for you! Please forgive Godiva’s appearance and if she distracts me a little (I think she really wants to blog about this).
The overall build of the Agile seems sturdier than the Shark model, and while they’re both about the same size they have a few differences. Check out the chart below!

Size
Cleaning Path Flexibility Easy of Filling Weight Wattage Heat Up Time Accessories |
HAAN AGILE
11.75″ W x 6.94″ D x 46.5″ H 12 inches (more with pad) Multi-directional, left right up and down clicks in place Removable tank to fill and replace 5.5 lbs 1200 watts 20 seconds 2 floor clothes, 1 stand mat, 1 carpet guard |
Shark Light and Easy
10.25″ W x 5″ W x 24.5″ H 10.25 (11 inches with pad) Pivots but limited in directions Fixed tank must pour into machine 6 lbs 1500 watts 2-5 minutes (or more) 1 floor cloth, 1 carpet cloth, 1 pouring cup |
Now the HAAN Agile retails at $119.95, which is more than you will find the Shark Light and Easy listed at. But is it worth the price difference? Absolutely! It provides an overall better clean, more flexibility and the time saved not waiting on the warm up means a quicker cleaning job!

Loved your video! This looks awesome. I have a Shark now and have been so dissatisfied with that brand. I’d love to try a Haan. The swivel head looks so handy!
Ohh…I loved the video! I love how fast it starts to steam!
LOVED the video!! If that was your first one, you did a great job. Looks like a good product too. Thanks for the review! I’ll have to check out HAAN myself. 😀
Wow, you make me want to purchase this steam cleaner!
Thanks for the review! I will definitely have to check one of these out for our kitchen floor – it is such a pain to keep clean.
I love that it sanitizes! That’s a HUGE plus for me!
Nice Video!! I love that it is ready to go quickly, so when you want to use it, you can and we don’t have to wait!
I have wanted a steam cleaner for my hardwood floors for a while, and I was thinking on getting the Shark, because everyone knows THAT brand! Thanks for the information, I will definitely look into this brand!!
