Spring Clean with Steam Power: Tineco Launches Amazon-Exclusive New FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Plus

As Australians tackle their annual spring clean, the new FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Plus takes the hard work out of floor care – featuring ReverseScrub Technology, 230°C HyperSteam and up to 110 minutes of runtime for powerful, chemical-free deep cleaning

SYDNEY, Oct. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- There has never been a better time for a spring reset, with Tineco – the No.1 wet & dry vacuum brand globally for four years running* – today expanding its premium Artist Series range with the launch of the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Plus. Exclusively available via Amazon Australia, the new model pairs 230°C HyperSteam with a suite of quiet-running, chemical-free cleaning features designed for effortless everyday cleaning.

While Spring cleaning season may be in full swing, research reveals that floor cleaning is among the most hated household chores due to the bending, scrubbing and repetitive nature of the task.^[i] For time-poor households keen to level-up their cleaning routine this spring, and ditch the time-consuming process of vacuuming and mopping, Tineco's new FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Plus offers an all-in-one cleaning solution with category-leading steam technology to fast-track the weekend clean.

The power of steam for cleaning has quickly become one of the must-have features of modern day wet and dry floor cleaners, particularly for Australians with allergies or sensitives. With allergic rhinitis now affecting 24% of Australians (up from just 15% in 2008) and 30% of people with asthma reporting their symptoms are worse after spending time inside their home, the need for hygienic, chemical-free cleaning methods are increasing in demand.

Tineco has led the steam cleaning revolution in Australia and around the world with its S9 Artist range raising the bar for hygienic floor cleaning at home. Compared to previous steam powered wet and dry floor cleaners, Tineco has upgraded its HyperSteam boiler technology in the S9 Artist range to deliver 230°C super-heated steam, reaching the floor surface at no less than 110°C, to easily and effectively tackle stubborn, baked-on stains and everyday grime without the need for harsh chemicals. As more Australians seek out 'healthy tech' for their cleaning needs, Tineco's S9 Artist Steam range has risen to become a trusted consumer choice for deep cleaning performance, while offering natural disinfection thanks to the innovative steam cleaning technology introduced by Tineco.

Combined with Tineco's innovative ReverseScrub Technology for targeted spot-cleaning power, the S9 Artist Steam Plus ensures effective cleaning of hard floors, without bending, or manual scrubbing required.

Runtime is another standout feature, with up to 110 minutes of cleaning in Quiet mode enough to achieve a whole house clean on a single charge. Auto, Max, Steam and Suction modes are tuned for faster, more intensive cleans.

For households mindful of noise, the S9 Artist Steam Plus integrates SilentDry self-clean mode as part of its FlashDry Self Cleaning process which runs at 40dB(A) or below, ensuring that sleeping children or other members of the household aren't disturbed.

True to Tineco's premium Artist Series aesthetic style, the S9 Artist Steam Plus also boasts a sleek, stylish design inspired by the Aurora Borealis, blending sky tones with vibrant aurora hues.

"The FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Plus is about bringing our steam revolution to more Australian homes," said from Tineco. "With 230°C HyperSteam, ReverseScrub Technology and up to 110 minutes of runtime, our R&D team have gone above and beyond to craft the new FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Plus to suit the cleaning needs of modern households. This new model offers innovative features for a chemical-free, deep clean that fits around their lifestyle – whether that may be a quick clean before guests arrive or a quiet clean once the kids are in bed."
