Head-to-head
Tineco S9 Artist Pro vs S9 Artist Steam: Steam mode cuts the 75-minute headline to thirty minutes
The short answer
Choose S9 Artist Pro for routine hard-floor washing and the larger clean tank. Choose Artist Steam when the floor allows steam and heat addresses a recurring cleaning job. Both offer powered maneuvering and the same low body, but Steam’s 75-minute headline becomes 30 minutes in Steam mode.
Before you choose
The reasoning and the trade-offs
The ordinary-washing buyer gives up capacity for steam
Artist Pro carries about 14% more clean water. If heat is a feature you will rarely or never use, Pro keeps more of the refill capacity without sacrificing the documented flat-body height or powered assistance.
What this is based on
Calculation: 120 ÷ 880 × 100 = 13.6% more clean water. Both list a 12.85 cm body and 360-degree powered movement.

What matters in practice
The differences that matter
The ordinary-washing buyer gives up capacity for steam
Artist Pro carries about 14% more clean water. If heat is a feature you will rarely or never use, Pro keeps more of the refill capacity without sacrificing the documented flat-body height or powered assistance.
How we reached this conclusion
Calculation: 120 ÷ 880 × 100 = 13.6% more clean water. Both list a 12.85 cm body and 360-degree powered movement.
Steam uses a different runtime budget
Artist Steam’s 30-minute Steam maximum is 40% of its 75-minute lie-flat Auto maximum. A long battery headline should not be used to plan a continuous steam-cleaning route.
How we reached this conclusion
Calculation: 30 ÷ 75 × 100 = 40%. This compares the same model’s stated mode limits, not measured efficiency between models.
The front edge is the smaller independent upgrade
Steam’s third cleaning side can help when you reach a cabinet front with little room to turn. You do not have to value steam to value that geometry, but it remains separate from the larger-tank advantage on Pro.
How we reached this conclusion
The manufacturer documents dual-sided cleaning on Pro and three-sided cleaning on Steam. No independent edge-residue test is used.
