For steaming your clothes, putting that little cloth piece or just a clean washcloth over the flat steamer attachment will keep it from spitting water spots onto your clothes (and help disribute the steam a bit more evenly). Great real review to see this thing in action. Thanks a bunch!
Everyone thinks this is supposed to be magic... you still have to do the cleaning yourself this just loosens the dirt to make it easier and less elbow grease for you.
With the mattress, try wrapping the nozzle in a microfiber. The steam loosens the dirt and stains, the microfiber is what actaully pulls them out of the mattress.
I've tried doing it exactly like you say, It improves the cleaning a bit, but I'd say my observations align well with the video - steam cleaner doesn't do a great job on mattresses. For this task the best tools are the extractors, professional grade tools, which cost that much, that you'd be probably better buying a new mattress and just replace it, instead of cleaning it.
@@moetocafe It is not advertised to remove stains from fabrics. Don’t lie, & stop expecting one thing to do all. You need a fabric cleaner for a mattress. Orrrr maybe a washing machine. Clean sheet often, & don’t be a dirty fuck. 😎
You said you were expecting a miracle worker...I think the adage "you get what you pay for" is applicable here. Your conclusion was correct, those small, hand held light weight steamers are great for select small jobs. Harder jobs like whitening a mattress or taking caked on crud off baseboards or deep cleaning grout needs something larger that has more pressure and hotter steam.
Yeah thats what ive learned hard way myself. Wish ide seen this video before buying the cheaper smaller one...im hoping buying a more powerful expensive one will be alot better.
Don't use a steam cleaner on your mattress. The steam cools down as soon as it hits the mattress and then you just have water vapour in your mattress which could cause mould. You need an appliance that vacuums as it steams to clean your mattress
it helps with a lot more! Helped get paint of my floor, helped remove adhesive from metal and plastic! but not alone, obviously youd have to scrub with a microfiber!
Regardless of the attachments, I cannot be convinced that one machine can be used for both my clothes and my toilet. Perhaps units for different areas/zones?
Normally I'd agree, but the steam tip would be self-sanitizing. Like using a bar of soap on dirty hands, then your face. As long as you brush off the soap (steam tip), between uses, it's self cleaning.
@@NatashaVincent You are a germaphobe. I am the same.. so although I know for a fact that steam kills all the bacterias and even viruses.. haha I cannot.. i just can't use the same for my bed & toilet ... oh man.. I thought I was the only one that was cringing
Okay, this steam cleaner doesnt remove stains on furniture, you could remove but also destroy it, real steam cleaner for furniture have option to vacum furniture at the same time, so when your furniture gets wet its also sucking dirty water , such steam cleaners are on eBay around 200€ minimum
What’s a steam cleaner supposed to do for scratched paint, dented wood, brightening a mattress, or the over glass? Would you rather scrub all that shit? 😂 You’ve got to understand what the item is actually meant to do first, then have realistic expectations of it. It loosens stuck on grime, & gets into hard to reach places with no chemicals. It’s not a stain remover, or handyman. There’s a tool for every job, but there is no universal tool.
@CtrlALlTerrorS It’s still not going to clean a mattress, or anything like they’re expecting. You’d need a pressure washer type set up, & you’d still end up with a soaked ass mattress lol.
I bought one recently out of curiosity. The steam does loosen the hard cooked on grease on the door. I used a scraper to get it all off. The only issue I have thus far is the steam cap. I takes forever to get it off and on. I have arthritis in both hands and it takes me awhile to them off. I have yet to try out the other attachments.
Great video thanks! One question would it be a good idea to have a separate one just for toilets? My ocd doesn’t want me using the same one as the kitchen although I know there are different nozzles but I just don’t know I’ve got one already but haven’t used yet want to just keep that one for the kitchen just looking for answers first
I have sliding windows and a sliding glass door to the deck. This thing IS magic while cleaning these surfaces. Also, I tried a few methods to remove sticker from the windows, and mine came with a scraper tool. This made short work of a frustrating issue. Every video review I've watched on this product seem to go right to the oven cleaning, lol. Not one of them worked. What worked for me was Dawn Powerwash and a magic eraser after scraping/vacuuming the crumbs.
I have been through many steamers and from my experience DO NOT use it on windows that are sealed with gas between the panes. The heat and pressure at the window edges will "melt" and break the seal rendering your window unsealed and condensation will build up inside them. About the toilet- two things...the pressure that is forced out of the nozzle blows stuff it comes in contact with. You could be blowing toilet stuff around. Second, remember that the toilet is holding COLD water and that steam is above boiling. The two temperatures could crack the porcelain.
OK so how do i know if my window has gas between the panes.. I'm confused with this.. why would people have gas between their windows.. I have double windows.. and was about to steam clean it.. PLS HELP ME .. I Don't want to break my window or unseal anything
@@gerryjohnson294 Yes, I may be killed by my dad before Covid kills me! Thanks I'll check google. & what should I do about the toilet if I want to steam clean it. The water in there is pretty cold Edit: just checked google, but it doesn't say how to tell if I have it or not Hmmmmmmm
@@hans6304 That wont work by just looking, but thx! Found some youtube videos to test if the seal is broke or have it or not in the glass. I guess I shouldn't steam clean the windows :(
to my knowledge using it on the bed is more about killing mites and bacteria that has gone deep inside of the matress rather than having an effect on the color. it probably wouldn't work with a different model either unless you add some sort of detergant or smth.
Were those stains on your shirt or wet patches from the steam cleaner or some kind of trend setter like different coloured trainers on each foot (bonkers) OR am i seeing things?
To get that grime off your oven door, use a window blade (it's like a razor blade, sold in the painting equipment section and the window cleaning section of your hardware store)
As far as I've been using all steam cleaners and after seeing some of your comments all these steam cleaners work perfectly fine every one of you who's complaining about not using it here or there you're just not using it right! ? Steam cleaners are perfect for baseboard or any surface couches cushions you need to put the head on it concentrated on that little area don't try to cover the whole area butt clean the entire area just focus on one spot at a time then try to even it out you might have to redo the process 2 to 3 times but if you do it right the first time you won't have to watching videos and actually doing something is two different things I am about to come out with my own steam cleaner video and I plan on buying at least four or five more units before that video
But when cleaning baseboard or any wood or painted surface take the head off be very cautious how close you are heat the surface up only with the damp mist wipe it clean dry it completely you can't get all the cracks it's piping hot water so don't try to get all the cracks at least it's not cold mopping water that might be too much chemical you can't go wrong with steam even if you overuse Clorox bleach leave your steam cleaner running in whichever room you overuse chemical that steam cleaner will clean the air who wants to BET right now?
Can I use on carpet, do you know. And you did a amazing job helping me , I actually got the same steamer your using as well, I've had mine for 3/4 months been afraid to use it lol! Thank you I'm going to use it today!
Just found this video, and I have to say, it was very eye opening for me…. Thanks! I need to be a better housekeeper, I cannot lie, and there are many things I don’t know about , such as techniques or products that work really well (beyond typical products specifically for certain jobs). I would love a steamer for certain cleaning jobs, and I see it’s not as perfect as I thought…. Incidentally, I agree with what folks here are saying regarding cleaning toilets and other items with the same attachment. I’ve thought of this, and I would have to buy a separate nozzle , if one were available, whether or not the steam will sanitize it
My only concern, storage. Because kitchen, laundry and bathroom I could not use the same machine or attachment. So I would need different machines for different tasks.
I think part of the point of a steam cleaner is to sanitize with heat vs. chemicals. Germs die at over 120 degees F. I had a steam cleaner about 20 years ago and I too thought it was going to be a miracle worker. I remember feeling like i still had to scrub and use cleaners. But if I wanted to go all natural or had serious allergies this could help. I was thinking of giving it another chance.
I mean.... a 30$ steam cleaner.. you can't expeft it to be as good as a quality one... Which i'm now looking for Somyhing as versitile as possible Funnily enought the first youtube video i stumbled upon is a 30$ one...
I just spent $200 on McColloch Canister and it sucks. Wth are they supposed to clean? Because everything I've tried to clean looks exactly the same. I'll stick with my harsh chemicals.
It won't remove dust from electronics. It will just make tiny amounts of mud because it's water vapor which, when it cools down, returns to its liquid state. Not to mention how that moisture will damage electronic components inside the device you're trying to clean.
Gross! I would've never touched the toilet with the attachment. Or even used it near the toilet, yuk. However, THANK YOU for a very good, concise and informative video! 👍I learned about other uses, like tile. I just don't think you have to touch the surface with the actual steamer or attachment. I'd let the actual steam do the cleaning.
lol, like the beautiful ms. vincent said below (essentially...i'm paraphrasing): AIN'T *NO WAY* I'M GOING TO USE SOMETHING ON A TOILET _AND_ IN THE KITCHEN. fcuk all that nonsense, windex and paper towels ftw.

Exactly
Use distilled water in your steam cleaner to avoid getting mineral deposits in it, which will eventually ruin it.
or you can pre boil water to precipitate most of the minerals
about to buy a steam cleaner so thanks for this tip!!!
@@3X0SK3L3TON
Thats what ive been trying to tell my mother...why do people not understand that...idk common sense to me personally
Will reverse osmosis water work?

I watched a documentary about bed bugs and the steam will kill then but you have to steam then vacuum. It all sounded like a dirty job to me.
@@amysmiles9751it's the only thing that works for bedbugs
Toilet should have been cleaned LAST 🤮 But great vid.😊
I got the vacuum just yesterday, amazing how much dust filled into one of the filter. You cant even see it, but its there
I watched a lot of videos to see a steam cleaner versus grease splatter. I am really happy to have that question answered finally.

I think the temperature of the steam would actually kill any bacteria, although I still wouldn't try it. 😆
lol...I hope it was a different brush!
There's this thing called "editing". It means that people can record segments at different times, even at different days. Wild, huh?
but the mattress at least would be sanitized!

Thank you just picked one up at yard sale for $10 to use especially for the grout in bathroom
How did it work in the dirtiest parts of the grout tile?
It's disinfecting the mattress, not "cleaning" it lol
gets those bed bugs
This is what I came to say. 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Steam it then use the carpet cleaner for the matress
I could do the same thing with other cleaning solutions and would've saved a lot of money

hi...for some surfaces you can add a little soap first and then steam clean it will do a much better job!
Add soap to the steamer??
HI...no don't do that..i mean put a little liquid soap on the surface to be cleaned after that use the steamer!
The thing about steam cleaners, the temperature is key. My hand held gets about 345'F and my big canister gets 475'F. Both can be filled while in use.
For an oven you need a stronger steam cleaner such as a cannister type. These have higher steam temperatures.
Or just set the oven on max for 2 days straight like i do.
@@kobragangbit thats alot of wasted electricity. I think you can buy a steamer if you let your over run for 2 straight days
Helpful video. But did you use the same brush attachment for the toilet as for the backsplash? I hope there were 2 brush attachments.

to my knowledge using it on the bed is more about killing mites and bacteria that has gone deep inside of the matress rather than having an effect on the color. it probably wouldn't work with a different model either unless you add some sort of detergant or smth.

Great review! Does it work good for mini blinds? (The real narrow plastic strip style blinds)
You were moving too fast. It meant to be on a area fpr 3 mins to steam and to get of germs
I just got mine. It's a useful tool, but not a miracle in any way. I can also confirm, it doesn't do well on cleaning a mattress.
