I was a bit reluctant when I realized the Shark VACMOP required disposable cleaning pads. After using it a couple of times, I can’t imagine it any other way.  The disposable pads are much easier than the washable pads. They are easy to insert, and the built-in-dirt chamber collects the vacuumed debris and wet messes. The best part, you throw the pad in the trash when you’re finished cleaning the floors. Brilliant! The pads do not streak on any floor surface. I will be purchasing again.
