We have a Shark steamer and they are good but we still use chemicals to lift more dirt.

It was only Β£79 and pretty good - better than a mop any day.

Β£300+ seems a lot for any steamer unless you need extra heavy duty. It should be exceptional for that amount.

 

Hope that helps

It is a lot Saint, but I want to cut down on chemicals and the research I have done so far seems to suggest (a bit like you) that tou can cut down on them. 

 

A heavier duty one should allow for more prolonged cleaning and with the higher bar more indepth cleaning.

 

I am pretty much convinced about buying one now. Spent a bit more time reading about them last night.

Bakes beans do more than they say on the tin.

 

Never had one that lived up to the promise.

Same goes for me, I recently tried a baz and it just didn't impress me- I took it back! I'll be sticking with good old cleaning products in future 

She's gonna be gutted when she reads that....

What are yoiu going to be mainly using it for?  I have the H20 X5, which I use mainly for floors, and it's brilliant,  it does have all of the other attachments as well.

Who makes your model?

 

I have been quite interested in the all round capabilities really. I like the idea of using steam to clean toilet/bathroom and all my wood / ceramic floors. Obviously the benefits of not using chemicals on windows is clear - no pun intended. But I would like to switch to using it say twice a month for a good clean and more standard cleaning in between. I also have a rental property that will need a good cleaning soon.  The Polti allows you to put a small amount of disinfectant in the water reservoir.

 

Maybe I need to look more industrial.

I have a Polti. Mr Fluffy Thing got it for me. He says it was one of the more expensive models. I haven't had it long. All I've done so far are the hard floors and some mirrors. It's quite efficient and the mirrors did seem to stay cleaner for a bit longer than with traditional glass cleaners.

I have been swayed to buy the Polti and filling in the delivery instructions as we 'speak'.

I also have a KΓ€rcher (pronounced Kercher) power washer that I use outdoors. It's very good too.

It's something like this, but came with more accessories.

 

 

It's body has 4 wheels, so it can lie down and be trundled along like cylinder vacuum.

 

 

I only need an indoor cleaner as I live in a Penthouse apartment 

 

But I will see how this fares and if it lives up to it's billing and performs how I expect, then I can see me buying more products in the future.

 

I've purposely not cleaned my toilet for 3 years to see how good this cleaner works.

My mate says he paid that for a front fork and a seat!
