does it require distilled water or can you use tap water?

I use tap water and have had no problem. I don't think there'd be any problem with distilled water either, but there's not a restriction on the water used.

Not required but, after having problems with three previous steam mops, I recommend it . . . especially if your tap water has a high mineral content (hard water).

You should always mix with distilled water which you can buy at any grocery or pharmacy (best to use deionized water if you have access). This prevents ions or other impurities in tap water to react.

Yes. I use filtered tap water. Some people use distilled water, but I find that tap water works just fine.

You can buy a filter for it, but it is not required to make it work. I use distilled water in mine and there is no danger.

Have always used cold tap water, but I would think distilled water would be better, and yes it wouldlast longer, and you may not need to clean as often.

It says distilled water is not necessary. However, we have our own well water supply, and there is lime in the water. Therefore, I still choose to use distilled water in my iron. It's a great iron!

I use bottled water and it works great. But the manual says to use tap water so either would be fine.

You feed it distilled water if kept indoors and if placed outdoors it can have only rain water and must be kept moist so if a dry spell then you would use distilled water. No tap water!!! The plant will catch its own bugs if kept outdoors.

Yes you must use distilled water;ordinary faucet work works too. If you won't drink it don't put it in the machine.

Tap water has worked just fine. Distilled water is not necessary at all. Hope this helps.

It actually need distilled. The chemicals in tap water will kill it quickly. Mine is now 10 inches tall. and eats flys and has grown two smaller plants as well. The distilled water is not expensive, a gallon lasts for a month or more. Water from the bottom in a saucer.

It uses tap water with an added cleaning solution. A small bottle of the solution comes with it.

You must use distilled water and use the measuring cup that came with the unit

The instructions do not say you have to use distilled water, relying on their filter to keep out mineral build up, but clearly using distilled water would work better and you do not have to replace the filter at some point.

You don't have to use distilled water...I do though, just so I don't have to clean as often...I do use citrus essential oils...lemon, lime grapefruit...this is a great product!
