The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop is available at Mascom International for KSh 12,400, brand new and sealed in White. It runs on 1200W of rated power, heats up in 15 seconds and holds 350mL of water in a detachable tank. LED touch controls switch between two steam levels, and a 5m cable gives you room to move between rooms. The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop is in stock today at our store on the first floor of Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. Walk in, hold it, try the touch panel and judge the handling before you pay.
Built for busy households, landlords, Airbnb hosts and small office managers across Kenya, the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop handles the daily fight against dust and mud. Red soil tracked in during the long rains, kitchen grease and sticky spills cling to tiles long after a bucket-and-rag wash. Hot steam loosens that grime so a single pass lifts it, using plain water instead of floor chemicals. Families in Kilimani and Westlands apartments get floors that dry quickly, which matters when toddlers crawl and pets roam. The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop also spares your back from wringing out heavy mops every evening.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell home appliances with no local backing, Mascom International sells the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop with a 12-month warranty and a walk-in service desk in the CBD. Customers across Nairobi tell us they switched to steam after tiring of mop buckets that leave streaks and a damp smell. Porodo builds the body from flame-retardant ABS plastic, and the UK 3-pin plug fits Kenyan sockets without an adapter. Order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival, or collect the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop from Kimathi Street the same day.
Common Questions About the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop
How much is the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop in Kenya?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop costs KSh 12,400 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, sold in sealed retail packaging. That price covers the White unit, the 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties. Spread across the year of warranty cover, it works out to about KSh 34 a day. You can pay by M-Pesa or cash in store, or pay the rider when the mop reaches your door, which happens the same day within Nairobi.
Which floors can the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop clean?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop cleans sealed hard floors such as ceramic tiles, porcelain, terrazzo, vinyl and sealed hardwood. Porodo lists it for multi-surface cleaning, and the two steam levels let you go lighter on finishes that dislike moisture. Use the low setting on sealed wood and laminate, and keep the head moving rather than parking it in one spot. Skip unsealed wood, waxed floors and unglazed clay tiles, since steam can raise the grain or lift the finish. Test a hidden corner first if you are unsure.
Does the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop need floor cleaner or detergent?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop cleans with steam made from plain water, so you do not need floor detergent. Heat breaks down grease and loosens dried mud, and the pad wipes the residue away. Keeping chemicals out of the tank also protects the heating system and avoids a soapy film that attracts fresh dust. In areas with hard tap water, filtered or distilled water limits mineral scale inside the mop over time. Empty the tank after each session so stale water never sits inside between cleans.
Will the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop work on Kenyan sockets and during KPLC power cuts?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop plugs straight into Kenyan wall sockets, because it ships with a UK 3-pin plug and runs on 220-240V at 50/60Hz. It is a corded appliance with no battery, so it stops during a KPLC outage and works again once power returns. The 15-second heat-up means you lose little time when the lights come back. If you plan to run it from a backup inverter or power station, that unit must deliver more than 1,200 watts continuously, so check its rating first.
How does the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop compare with the Porodo Multi-Surface Steam Cleaner?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop is an upright floor mop, while the Porodo Multi-Surface Steam Cleaner is a handheld unit built for smaller jobs. The steam mop is rated at 1200W against the handheld's 1050W, and both carry a 350mL tank. The handheld suits grout lines, cooker tops, window tracks and car seats, where you hold the nozzle close to the dirt. The steam mop suits whole floors, since you stand upright and push. Choose the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop for floors and the handheld for detailed surface work.
How fast does the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop heat up, and what do the two steam levels do?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop is ready about 15 seconds after you switch it on, and a breathing light indicator tells you when. The LED touch panel moves between two steam levels with a tap rather than a stiff dial. The lower level suits sealed wood, laminate and quick daily passes through a hallway. The higher level pushes more steam for kitchen grease, dried juice and the muddy footprints that follow a rainy evening. Changing levels halfway through a room takes a single touch, with no need to stop.
Is the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop safe to use around children and pets?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop suits homes with children and pets, because it cleans with water vapour and leaves no chemical residue on the floor. Toddlers who crawl and dogs that lick tiles avoid contact with detergent films. The body is made from flame-retardant ABS plastic. Steam is hot, so keep small hands away from the mop head while it runs, stand it upright when you pause and unplug it before refilling. Store it out of reach once it has cooled down after use.
Who should buy the Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop, and who should skip it?
The Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop suits households, Airbnb hosts, clinic receptions and small offices with tiled or sealed hard floors that need frequent, chemical-free cleaning. Parents and pet owners gain the most from it. Skip it if your home is mostly carpet, rugs or unsealed timber, because steam is not meant for those surfaces; a vacuum cleaner is the better fit there. Skip it too if you mainly clean grout, cooker tops or upholstery, where a handheld steam cleaner reaches tight spots more easily.
Technical Specifications
Steam and Heating Performance
- 1200W rated power — enough heat to turn water into steam quickly and keep it flowing through a full floor session.
- 15-second heat-up — switch it on, fit the pad, and the mop is ready before you reach the first room.
- Two steam levels — a gentle setting for sealed wood and a stronger setting for grease, mud and sticky kitchen spills.
- Multi-surface cleaning — Porodo rates it for a range of hard floors, so one tool covers tiles, terrazzo and sealed timber.
- Chemical-free cleaning — steam from plain water lifts dirt, so you stop buying floor detergent and avoid soapy residue on tiles.
- Breathing light indicator — a pulsing light shows the mop is heating, then signals clearly when it is ready to steam.
Floor and Power Compatibility
- 220-240V at 50/60Hz — matches standard 240V household supply, so the mop runs directly from home and office wall sockets.
- UK 3-pin plug — fits standard Type G wall sockets, so no travel adapter, extension converter or rewiring is needed.
- Sealed hard floors — ceramic, porcelain, terrazzo, vinyl and sealed hardwood all suit steam; test delicate finishes in a hidden corner.
- Not for carpet or unsealed wood — steam can soak fibres or raise timber grain, so a vacuum serves those surfaces better.
- Backup power use — an inverter, generator or power station must supply more than 1,200 watts continuously to run it.
- Energy use — running at the full 1200W rating for 30 minutes uses about 0.6 kWh of electricity from the mains.
Build and Design
- Flame-retardant ABS body — a tough plastic that resists heat and slows flames, a sensible material around a heating element.
- White finish — a clean, light look that suits modern kitchens, apartment interiors and office reception areas alike.
- Upright design — you clean standing up, which spares your knees and back compared with scrubbing on the floor by hand.
- Easy assembly structure — the handle and body fit together quickly out of the box, so cleaning starts within minutes.
- 5m power cable — reaches across most rooms from one socket, so you swap plugs less often during a whole-house clean.
- LED touch control panel — flat touch buttons replace mechanical switches and wipe clean easily after a greasy kitchen session.
Water Tank and Care
- 350mL detachable tank — lift it off, fill it at the sink and clip it back without carrying the whole mop over.
- Plain water only — keeping detergent out of the tank protects the heating system and keeps steam flowing cleanly over time.
- Filtered or distilled water — in hard-water areas, this limits mineral scale that can slowly build up inside steam appliances.
- Empty after use — draining leftover water between sessions keeps the tank fresh during humid months and prevents stale smells.
- Pad care — rinse or launder the mop pad after each clean so lifted dirt does not spread on the next pass.
Inclusions and Ownership
- Porodo RapidSteam Steam Mop in White — the unit exactly as listed on Porodo's own specification sheet, in sealed retail packaging.
- Detachable 350mL water tank — supplied with the body and ready to fill with plain water on the first day.
- Attached 5m cable with UK 3-pin plug — ready for standard wall sockets straight from the box, with no adapter required.
- 12-month warranty — covers manufacturing defects under normal use, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
- In-store demonstration — test the touch panel, steam levels and handling at our Kimathi Street store before you pay.
