Tineco iFLOOR vs FLOOR ONE series: Smart Becoming Smarter

By now, Tineco has been producing wet cleaners for a few years. The company has budget and premium lineups, the iFLOOR and FLOOR ONE respectively. None of these machines can be used on carpets, those are electric mop washers that pick up small debris but were not designed for deep vacuuming jobs.

If you are looking for a cordless vacuum, have a look at the company's other models.

The wet cleaners make the mopping experience way smoother compared to manual mopping. All you have to do is fill the clean water tank with a water and solution mix and start the machine.

Since Tineco has lots of modifications, let's break it into three categories:

1. iFLOOR: a budget lineup for everyday tasks
2. FLOOR ONE: a premium series that adjusts cleaning settings depending on the mopping job
3. Steam series: additionally uses steam to tackle stains

Tineco iFLOOR 2 Complete vs. iFLOOR 3 Breeze Complete vs. iFLOOR 5 Breeze Complete Comparison Chart

Starting with the Tineco iFLOOR, all models in the lineup have two water tanks, one for clean and one for wasted water. The cleaning mechanics remains the same for all models, the cleaner uses clean water for mopping and sucks in wasted water into the DWT so the device does not drag dirty roller around the floors.

The advanced models have iLOOP technology, a display, and edge cleaning mode.

Tineco iFLOOR Series

The iFLOOR series is the most basic washer and includes two water tanks. With an affordable price tag, the iFLOOR doesn't have dirt detection or auto-cleaning modes. Those include iFLOOR 2 COMPLETE, iFLOOR 3 Breeze, and iFLOOR 5 Breeze.

Tineco iFLOOR 2 Complete

If you need a mop for a small area of hard floors, this is a great buy, the best in the price range. The cleaner can remove stubborn stains and do light vacuuming jobs.

Tineco iFLOOR 5 Breeze Complete

The iFLOOR 3 Breeze Complete has a bigger battery and larger tanks. It's a bit smarter with an LED display yet still the basic model.

The iFLOOR 5's compact and convenient docking station stores and charges the device, and cleans the brushroll as long as you put the device on it, leaving no mess or residue on floors.

Premium FLOOR ONE lineup

The newest FLOOR ONE is a premium and most-featured lineup. Those models come with a bigger accessory kit and have a big display.

*The COMBO modifications are not included in the comparison

The FLOOR ONE series starts with the FLOOR ONE S3, the cheapest in the lineup:

• It intelligently adjusts cleaning settings, has a display, a basic cleaning head, and the smallest CWT and DWT.
• The FLOOR ONE S5 Pro 2 has a single-edge head that reaches close to the walls and edges, a suction-only cleaning mode that shuts off water flow, and a bigger CWT&DWT.
• The upgraded FLOOR ONE S6 Stretch lays flat to the floor to reach under furniture is short in this position, has a new triple-edge cleaning head that makes cleaning along the walls easier than before, and FlashDry self-clean that washes the roller with heated water and dries it with hot air.
• The premium FLOOR ONE S7 FlashDry is the only one with SmoothPower. This technology assists you by intelligently detecting the movement of the rear wheels, whether pushing the cleaner forward or pulling it back. The divide also has a dual-edge cleaning head, a bigger clean water tank, and a custom cleaning mode.

Each model has other modifications.

FLOOR ONE S3 vs. FLOOR ONE S3 Breeze

The FLOOR ONE S3 has another modification, the FLOOR ONE S3 Breeze. The Breeze has a base for charging while the standard S3's base is for both, storage and charging. Also, the Breeze includes a bigger 500 ml cleaning solution.

The FLOOR ONE S3's new brush system includes a built-in motor for better cleaning performance and a precision blade that squeezes away dirty water to keep the brush clean. It also has a self-cleaning mode that rinses the brushroll with water once you press the button.

The FLOOR ONE S3 is good for the price but a standard cleaning head might not be efficient at cleaning along the walls and corners.

Tineco FLOOR ONE S5 series

The FLOOR ONE S5 Series has an updated DualSide cleaning head and 3 modifications: FLOOR ONE S5, FLOOR ONE Pro 2, FLOOR ONE Combo, FLOOR ONE Breeze Complete.

Compared to the standard S5, the S5 Pro 2 has an advanced animated vivid display and four cleaning modes: Auto, Max, Suction and Ultra

The Auto is for standard cleaning, the Max gives an extra boost, Suction is for using the cleaner as a vacuum, and the Ultra is for heavy stains.

Tineco FLOOR ONE S6

The FLOOR ONE S6 is a premium lineup with MHCBS technology:

Keeps the brush roller constantly cleaned with fresh water, while the floating flat scraper efficiently removes dirty water. Ensuring brush cleanliness and leaving your floors cleaner.

The Standart Tineco FLOOR ONE S6 has a DualEdge cleaning head, three cleaning modes, and 35 minutes of battery life.

The FLOOR ONE S6 Stretch is an upgraded model with a triple side edge design that lays flat to 180 degrees so you can use it under furniture. The cleaning head is maneuverable thanks to mini-wheels, and it has FlashDry technology.

The Stretch modification is the most advanced in the lineup if you don't need a vacuum with it. 

The Tineco FLOOR ONE S6 Switch can be used as a wet-dry washer, a cordless vacuum, and a handvac. A SwitchPro motor makes a smooth transition between the washer and a cordless vacuum cleaner when you need to mop or vacuum. It has FlashDry and a DualEdge cleaning head.

Tineco FLOOR ONE S7 Series

The high-top FLOOR ONE S7 has four modifications:

The FLOOR ONE S7 FlashDry is the only one with a custom cleaning mode that can be set in the app (water flaw and suction levels based on cleaning needs) and FlashDry technology for freshly clean roller.

The FLOOR ONE S7 Switch is similar to the FLOOR ONE S6 Switch with a SwitchPro motor, sealed filtration, ZeroTangle, and 40/65 min of runtime in mopping and vacuum modes.

FLOOR ONE S7 Combo vs S7 Switch

Since both include a vacuum cleaner it can be a bit confusing. The Switch has a motor that can be used on both, and also FlashDry, the technology only premium models have. The Combo has two different devices and lacks FlashDry.

The Tineco FLOOR ONE S7 FlashDry is the newest and most-featured wet-dry vacuum cleaner with the biggest water tanks and battery life.

Tineco FLOOR ONE Steam

The Steam series uses steam to tackle stains. It washes the floors, vacuums surfaces, and steams stubborn stains.

Vacuum, wash & steam

The iFLOOR 5 STEAM is a cheaper option, it lacks a display, iLOOP, and doesn't automatically adjust cleaning settings.

The FLOOR ONE S5 STEAM connects to the app, adjusts settings on dirty areas, has iLOOP, and a display.

The FLOOR ONE S7 Steam has an upgraded cleaning head with dual-edge technology that allows getting closer to the walls. It is cordless and has two steam modes.

A corded modification keeps going when others need a charge

FLOOR ONE S7 Steam

The FLOOR ONE S7 Steam's upgraded display, cordless mobility, the new two-edge design, and two steam modes for hard stains make the device one of the best choices on the market.

To conclude

It looks like the iFLOOR 3 is one of the longest-lasting wet-dry machines on the market that is a bit more basic than the company's flagship FLOOR ONE 3S. Both devices look cool, those who want a more advanced machine with Wi-Fi, app integration, and smart detection, and also that would be more suitable for bigger homes, we would suggest going with the FLOOR ONE S3.

The iFLOOR 3 is better for small and some average homes.

For quick cleanups and small areas of hard floors, as well as those who do not need the bells of the FLOOR ONE S3 and iFLOOR 3, the Tineco iFLOOR would be the best buy.

As to the S5 versions, those are more advanced with bigger batteries as well are more featured. If you want a cleaner with a handvac in the box, have a look at the Tineco FLOOR ONE S5 COMBO. The Tineco FLOOR ONE S5 PRO 2 is better for bigger homes, it is a premium device with extra features and an advanced display.

The Tineco FLOOR ONE S5 Steam is a cleaner that combines all the best in one cleaner adding steam technology. If you need a wet mop cleaner that would be able to get rid of tough stains, have a look at the newest S5 Steam.

The Tineco FLOOR ONE S7 Pro is a premium machine with the longest battery life, the biggest water tanks, and dual-side cleaning technology which makes cleaning comfortable and smooth. Can be used in a dry-only mode as a vacuum and is suitable for bigger homes. The Tineco FLOOR ONE S7 Steam lacks some features but has a Steam feature for heavy stains.
