Ewbank EP170 Multi-purpose 3-in-1 Floor Cleaner, Scrubber and Polisher: Electric Hard Floor Buffer, Lightweight, Red

A: No, the EP170 does not extract water. Please do not submerge the unit in water or liquid.

A: We recommend you use floor polish with the EP170. The Ewbank Floor Polish (17 oz.) leaves a non slip shine, protects the floor against wear and tear, and is fast drying. Just to let you know, the machine does not hold any cleaning solution. Please test a small area before you polish your entire floor first to ensure you are happy with the results.

A: Thank you for your question. If your living room has a hard floor then yes. If your living room is a carpet then no. This unit is only for hard floor surfaces and can not be used on carpet.

A: Thank you for your question! You can use the EP170 on any hard floors. If there is a personal concern you can always do a small test area, or look into the recommendations of the manufacturer of the flooring itself. The EP170 is a light weight machine, so you should be fine. Just be sure to read and follow the instructions carefully. The Ewbank Website also has videos for reference, and if you have any questions about specific use you can give our offices a call. Have a great day!

A: Thank you for asking this question! The short answer is no. This is a cleaner and polisher not a waxing machine. If you use straight wax with this unit it can gum up the works. It's also very light weight and most floor waxing machines are quite heavy. However, that being said, some polishing liquid has a bit of wax in it and that is perfectly fine. Remember when using any cleaning solution to regularly clean the base of the unit, and the brushes and the washable pads.

A: Good morning and thank you for your question. The unit that we sell in the US is for an American outlet, and American Volts. Thank you again for your question. We hope this helps.

A: Hi and thank you for your question. Yes this unit is good for any hard floor surface. In tandem with this unit check on the care requirements for your particular floor as well. We also always recommend using the unit on one small part of the floor first before using it all over the floor. Please also carefully read and follow all instructions in the manual. Videos on use and care for the unit can also be found on you tube. Thank you again for your question!

A: Hello and thank you for your question. Ewbank does make a floor polish spray that works well with a litany of floors. However, if you are using the brushes and want to put some kind of detergent or soap on the floor, that is buyers choice. Pick the soap that works best for the kind of floor you have, and has a smell that is pleasant for you. Bear in mind that this unit does not soak up water, so if you use a soap that pools on the floor in order to give it a good cleaning and scrubbing, you will have to go back and soak up any left water. Thanks again fo your question. ~Ewbank Team.

A: Thank you for your question. The Floor Polisher is a great little unit, but it is not very heavy. You can use the brushes on some of the tougher stains, or paint, with some kind of detergent on the floor to help break it up. You can use the scouring pads as well if the brushes are not course enough. Be careful with how much pressure you put on the unit itself, so as not to scratch the floor or damage the unit. If the stains and paint are old and ground into the floor you might want to consider some kind of pre cleaning or resurfacing before a polisher. Thank you. ~Ewbank Team
