What’s the difference between the different models of the Tineco mopping vacuum: a full review
When I first became a mom and was working as a pediatric nurse, I kept finding myself so frustrated by housework and overwhelmed by all of the cleaning I had to do when I really just wanted to prioritize spending time with my daughter (and of course my pups). I already hated leaving her to go to work, so the last thing I wanted to do when I was home with her was spend all of my time vacuuming, dusting and mopping (with 2 big dogs we are used to a lot of dirt and mud getting tracked through our home).
Then one day, this magical product entered my life: the Tineco Mopping Vacuum. Not to be dramatic, but this product genuinely changed my life. I could talk for hours about how much I love this appliance. Gone were the days of vacuuming, mopping, then vacuuming again because the mop was still picking up little pieces of hair, dust and dirt and spreading it all over. I truly don’t know how I lived without this mopping vacuum for so long, and I cannot tell you the number of friends and family I have converted to Tineco lovers.
If you are looking into getting one these amazing mopping vacuums for yourself, it can seem overwhelming comparing the various models, prices, features and trying to figure out which one to purchase. As a Tineco lover, I have actually owned 3 versions of their mopping vacuum, the s3, the s5, and the s7. I am going to tell you all of the many reasons I love each model and what my favorite features of each model are in hopes to guide you in picking a mopping vacuum that will also change your life (and cut your cleaning time in half) the same way this machine has done for me.

The major pro of the s3 is that it is typically the cheapest version of the mopping vacuums, but in all transparency, this would not be my first choice of Tineco machines to purchase. My main reason for this is that the dirty water tank and clean water tank are very small, meaning you have to empty the dirty water tank frequently and refill the clean water tank frequently. This can be frustrating when you’re trying to clean the floors of your home quickly, as you will undoubtedly have to repeat this process a few times when moving room to room. This is not really ideal, especially if you’re cleaning up a big mess. Another reason I wouldn’t recommend this version is that it leaves about an inch or so on either side of the roller so you cannot get up close to baseboards. The suction power on this model is wonderful, and it definitely does clean your floors thoroughly if you are okay with refilling the clean water tank, emptying the dirty water tank and the separation of the roller to the baseboards.
If someone asked me what Tineco product to buy if they could only buy 1, this is the model I would recommend each and every time. The major pro of the s5 is that the tanks for both clean and dirty water are both much bigger, so you don’t have to refill it nearly as often which is perfect for quick cleaning, and one side of the s5 roller gets up close to baseboards and other surfaces which allows for a deeper clean. The price point for the s5 is definitely a little bit steeper, but for the reasons I mentioned above I think it is worth every penny. It is typically $499.00, but it does go on sale a few times a year which makes it more affordable.
This version definitely comes with a hefty price tag, but it definitely doesn’t lack in the upgraded features department. My absolute favorite feature of this mopping vacuum is that it comes with lights so you can see everything in front of you which I believe allows for a better, deeper clean as you can really see all of the hair, dirt, mud, and whatever other messes are right there in front of you. That feature is a game changer to me as I couldn’t believe all of the messes I was missing without being able to see the little lights.
This is the s7 model!
The vacuum of your dreams! The Pure One s15!
If you are only interested in a stand alone vacuum without the mopping feature, I cannot recommend this vacuum enough. This vacuum is INCREDIBLE! It is cordless, auto adjusts suction power, illuminates dust, hair and dirt for an easier and deeper clean, and it even turns into a handheld vacuum in seconds.
Tineco Vacuum Pure One Station Fur Free Cordless Vacuum:
This vacuum is definitely a splurge, but if you’re a pet owner (especially with dogs who shed), I think this is worth its weight in gold! This vacuum becomes a duster with multiple different attachments, self empties and cleans the canister when put on the charging station in addition to cleaning the roller brush and HEPA filter, it becomes a handheld vacuum in seconds, and it has a pet fur attachment which allows for a mess free grooming experience for your dogs as it captures and traps the fur! It allows for 60 minutes of vacuuming as well, and it is cordless and lightweight. Did I mention that you only need to change the canister every 1 to 2 months? Life changing, I know.
I truly love these products and am so grateful for the way these machines have changed my life and cut our cleaning time in half. I have gifted many of these machines to family and friends and everyone has fallen just as in love with Tineco as I am! Tineco mopping vacuums and vacuums would make a great gift for new homeowners, a wedding gift, for the new mom in your life (help her keep her home super clean and cut the cleaning time in half!), any pet owners in your life, and honestly anyone who can just appreciate a deep clean for their floors.
I hope you love your new Tineco products just as much as I do, be sure to share with me which machine you purchased and let me know your thoughts!

Family matching swim suits
We are heading to Cabo later this year and I have been searching for matching suits for my Son, daughter and me! Of course, my favorite boutique delivered AGAIN. I can’t stress to you enough how in love with Sydney So Sweet we are! https://sydneysosweet.com/
The maroon mommy and me matching suits are probably my favorite although it is so hard to choose! I’m wearing my usual medium and Peanut is wearing a S. She typically wears a 3T so they run pretty true to size.
Next up is this adorable matching set that ALSO HAS BABY BOY and DADDY matching suits 😍
Im wearing my normal medium and she is wearing her normal S. I got my son size 12-18 Months! Of course, daddy refuses to match us, but I still think matching my babies in Cabo will be amazing.
Last but certainly not least is this beautiful set that also has the option for boys (and dads 😭)
This one I had to size up because it ran small especially if you are like me and are tall! I’m wearing a Large but peanut is wearing her normal S. I got my son the 12-18 months.
