Who enjoys cleaning up the house? Admittedly, I don’t — not regularly anyway. It’s tiring, time-consuming and something I do only when absolutely necessary.
The reality though is that my home needs to be cleaned frequently. Staying on the ground floor also seems to attract more dust.
Thankfully, help is at hand! I tried out the Tineco Floor One S9 Artist and rediscovered the joy of cleaning up (as it I ever enjoyed this in the past). The smart cordless floor washer redefines what it means to keep my living space spotless, efficient and stylish.
And it is not just a cleaning tool — it’s a lifestyle upgrade that brings together cutting-edge technology, thoughtful design and practical features tailored for the demands of urban living.
After using it for more than a week, here’s why I’m impressed with the S9 Artist.
Effortless cleaning: Singaporeans lead fast-paced lives where time is a precious commodity. The S9 Artist is engineered to save time and effort. Its iLoop Smart Sensor detects dirt in real time and automatically adjusts suction power and water flow, ensuring every corner is cleaned thoroughly without needing manual intervention. The device can handle everything from dust to pet poo.
Compact design: With its ultra-slim, 180° lay-flat design, the S9 Artist fits easily under beds, sofas and low-clearance furniture — areas that are hard to reach in Singapore’s space-conscious homes. The device measures just 12.85cm when flat, making it ideal for HDB flats and condos, where space is premium.
Hassle-free maintenance: The self-cleaning system features 85°C FlashDry technology that automatically washes and dries the brush roller after each use, ensuring hygiene and convenience. Its three-chamber dirty water separation system keeps dirty water away from the motor to preserve cleaning power and extend the device’s lifespan.
Pet friendly: For homes with pets, the DualBlock Anti-Tangle design is a game-changer. It prevents hair from clogging the brush, reducing interruptions and maintenance, and making it easier to keep floors free of fur and debris. And I don’t know why but my dog loves chasing the smart washer. So, it’s great for pet fun and exercise too!
Long battery life: With up to 50 minutes of runtime per charge, it can clean most homes in a single session. The intuitive 3D light display and body light indicators provide real-time feedback, making operation and maintenance straightforward even for newbies.
Aesthetic appeal: Inspired by the Aurora Borealis, the S9 Artist’s elegant design blends seamlessly into modern interiors, adding a touch of sophistication to your home. It’s a device you’ll be proud to showcase and not stow away in a closet.
The Verdict
The Tineco Floor One S9 Artist has reshaped my thinking of house cleaning. For Singaporeans who value time and cleanliness, appreciate innovative design and demand top-tier performance, it delivers on every front, turning the loathsome chore of cleaning into an enjoyable experience. At a retail price of S$1,103, it a must-have for any home. Maybe as a Mother’s Day gift?
