Floor cleaning splits into two separate tasks that waste time and leave you switching between vacuuming and mopping with different equipment. Tineco dominates the wet dry vacuum category by eliminating this inefficiency, and competitors haven’t caught up to their smart sensor technology that adjusts cleaning parameters automatically based on mess detection. The Floor One S5 handles everything from dry debris to sticky spills in a single pass without manual mode switching or guesswork about water flow rates. Amazon just dropped this machine to a record low of $259 for Black Friday, down from its usual $449 price, which makes this pro floor cleaning accessible at nearly half the typical cost.

Proprietary iLoop technology detects the level of mess and automatically adjusts suction power, water flow volume, and brush roller speed in real-time to match what it encounters. Heavy dirt automatically turns up the suction and quickens the brush speeds; light dust reduces power consumption to prolong battery life. The sticky messes get more water flow to dissolve the residue, while the dry ones get less to avoid over-wetting
The dual-tank system keeps the cleaning solution and dirty water completely separate throughout the process. Fresh water and cleaning solution flow from the clean tank to the brush roller, while contaminated water gets sucked into the separate dirty tank. This design ensures you’re always cleaning with fresh water rather than spreading dirty water around, like most mop and bucket systems do. The clean water tank increased 30% in capacity compared to previous generations, allowing it to cover larger areas before requiring refills.
The design of the brush roller places the bristles close to baseboards and into corners where dirt accumulates, but standard vacuum heads cannot reach. The edge-to-edge coverage of the roller eliminates the gap that requires you to go back with hand tools or separate edge cleaners. Floors are completely dry within minutes after cleaning, rather than remaining damp for hours like traditional mopping leaves them.
The hands-free self-cleaning cycle takes care of the most dreaded maintenance task with traditional mops. Press one button, and the machine automatically flushes the internal tubing and brush roller with clean water, which dislodges trapped hair, debris, and dirty water from the cleaning system. After the cleaning cycle is complete, the centrifugal drying function spins excess water out of the roller to prevent mildew growth and odors that build up in damp cleaning tools. This automated maintenance takes mere minutes with zero manual scrubbing or touching of the dirty roller.
The 3-in-1 docking station combines storage, charging, and self-cleaning in one small footprint. The vertical storage design saves valuable floor space over maintaining a separate vacuum and mop with their accessories and cleaning supplies. The station charges the battery between uses and is the anchor for the self-cleaning cycle. The cordless design reaches all areas of your home without being tethered by extension cords limiting your range or presenting tripping hazards while cleaning.
The machine deals with hard floor types like tile, hardwood, laminate and vinyl without any specific attachments or changing settings. From sticky kitchen spills and bathroom grime to muddy footprints and pet accidents, all clean up with the same equipment and technique. The cleaning solution works on multiple floor types without residue or requiring specific formulations for different surfaces. Regular maintenance involves cleaning the filter and the HEPA element monthly to maintain suction performance and wiping the dirty water tank sensor to avoid false full alerts.
At $259, you’re getting Tineco’s flagship wet/dry vacuum technology for $190 below standard retail pricing that puts this category out of reach for many households. The 42% discount brings automated floor cleaning within budget for people tired of the vacuum-then-mop routine that doubles cleaning time.
