My Granddad bought this steam cleaner from Amazon wanting to clean his rug in the living room as it was getting a little grubby. I helped him pick one with good reviews on there and the description sounded like £39.99 was giving you a lot to work with. He ended up giving it to me as he found it so rubbish on the rug and had not other use for it. I of course felt awful that I'd picked something that was no good, but was happy to try it out to see if it would work for what I wanted to do with it. The steam cleaner is a small hand held cleaner which heats the water you put in the release steam from the nozzle. It comes with different attachments which depend on ...  Read the complete review

Two years ago it was time to say goodbye to a very old friend. Of course we're not talking about a person, animal or a live, animate object, but rather a gun steam cleaner in the shape and form of probably the only Hoover appliance I've ever bought that has lasted so long without problem! The Hoover Vaporzipp, a hand held steam gun that looked like it could appear in any episode of Star Trek finally gave out with just a wisp of steam and a malfunctioning trigger. It had done much service in the kitchen, the bathroom, but more importantly it was great for taking outside and doing the windows with, especially if bird droppings were apparent on our PVC framed windows.

I had the Morphy Richards GrimeBuster Steam Cleaner for nearly 18 years but the element finally went bang. Replaced it with this - a snip in a sale at £29.99. Its a good little cleaner but unlike the Grimebuster which produced steam and had a steam switch on the tools, this is just a constant steam - so not as good!!! AND it has no long tube for a steam element. A great shame that Morphy Richards downgraded their steamer to a much lower spec as the other one cost me £4.75 per year! This is not the same quality or ease of use and having used it for 3 weeks, its nothing like the grimebuster in terms of ease of use - but nevertheless its a great little steamer!

Couldn't remove the skin off a rice pudding. Total waste of money. Tried it on many tasks but always resorted to a toothbrush and elbow grease. Sadly I couldn't give this less than a 1 star rating.

Why did I decide to buy a steam cleaner? I'd been watching the selling channels on satellite tv and you know how they make everything look good. I'd spent an hour watching the presenters steam blasting everything in sight with a snazzy looking hand held steamer and thought, I'll have one of them beasties. Being a yorkshire man I thought, if I search the internet I'll find one cheaper than they sell them for on telly, so I ended up with this one, not the type I was looking for but the reduction from £49.99 down £19.99 in yet another argos sale swung it for me, (they're curently selling at £33.29 there in a sale) As soon as I got it home it was out of the box ...  Read the complete review
