"i did try pressing it downward and then turning the lid anticlockwise but it never opens"

"first up was the tumble dryer that my sister had stored in the garage before handing it down to me"

"all they use is water so no nasty chemicals to leave that after smell that stays for ages after using"

"would highly recommend this steamer i have had a full day today in my kitchen and bathroom it fetches the plastic round windows up like new and the awkward corners you can not reach it blasts the dirt out it's brilliant for cleaning taps and your toilet the flexi pipe allows you to clean right up around the rim all i can say is i should have had one of these years ago it would have saved me some hard graft"

"buy now while stocks last"

"i tried this on cooker grease"

"bought one of the least expensive ones that looked decent"

"fad it gets hot i struggled to get the cup off when it was hot and it dripped water everywhere"

"threw it away after a few weeks"

"they won't clean really soiled grouting or remove lime scale but they will help you keep germs at bay clean and sanitize your electric tooth brush if you've got one and are well worth having to keep the toilet area germ free"

"it worked well on the headliner and the seats we even used it on the center console to help lift sticky soda residue we did not try it on the carpet but i imagine it would work for that as well"

"tried cleaning several stuff from car to indoor not able to clean at all you cant tilt its a wasted of money"

"at first i thought the device was broken but no it is a great safety feature"

"found it difficult to attach and remove attachments"

"but the results were disappointing and i think i've dislocated my thumb by having to hold down the safety button whilst using the steam cleaner"

"doesn't clean anything!"

"and although lightweight i felt the appliance was really not well made"

"waste or money broke about 2 minutes into use dont waste your time or money"

"this is totally useless"

"everything looked good came well packaged had all the right attachments but a few minutes into steam cleaning my sofa my hand got blasted with steam!"

"it kills germs better than bleach and it doesn’t not have the nasty chemicals smell which is good for kids around"

"one filling of water lasts about 5 minutes water was slightly leaking from the secure lock after a few times of topping it up the fact that you need to wait a while before you can top it up and then wait for it to heat up makes it slightly annoying never the less i'm happy that it worked for what i needed it for"

"the pressure isn't great but what do you expect for such a cheap price so you will have to put quite of effort in yourself hey if you want it to do the work for you then you buy a dearer one but it's better than nothing and you don't have to worry about using chemicals which is never a bad thing"

"i should note for those who had troubles steam or water going out from places they shouldn't for instance : this is a high pressure device so get some gloves and make sure to read the manual!"

"i couldn’t get on with this so i felt disappointed by the time i had set it all up i thought i my as well use some elbow grease in my cleaning it takes ages to set up it’s not for me it’s"

"waste of time"

"i will say that it would be better if the unlock button stayed in a fixed position when slid down to operate"

"i returned it after 1 use as found it was a bit of a waste of money"

"with a dog and young children stains are always needing to be removed from things and it banishes the need to use so many chemicals harmful to them"

"i bought this because i had a massive gin tonic stain on my sofa"

"waste of time and money"

"cheap parts and the steam button would not fully depress without being coaxed with a toothpick"

"this product came with parts missing and the water wouldn't heat up inside so disappointed"

"i now have a sore red hand"

"the pressure of the steam is decent for all of about 3 seconds and then it loses pressure and stays at a constant pressure until the steam eventually dies out not long after"

"they seem to have a life span of about three years before they start leaking steam and become useless"

"seems to take forever to warm up and didn't really get overly hot"

"got some stains out of my carpet which i had hoped it would do and it's one of those products that makes you want to go all around the house steaming stains off everywhere!"

"with a dog and young children stains are always needing to be removed from things and it banishes the need to use so many chemicals harmful to them"

"not quite as good as i was expecting and doesn't even come close to removing the likes of oven grease"

"then it's still so hot you can't refill without risk of scalding yourself"

"it doesnt clean as in the description and leaves streaks "

"the pressure of the steam is decent for all of about 3 seconds and then it loses pressure and stays at a constant pressure until the steam eventually dies out not long after"

"no safety marks for this item i am very disappointed with this steamer"

"it's not worth £30 pounds it states it will keep steam for 20 minutes but the steam only at a high temperature for a couple of minutes wish i had not got it now"

"but i'm pretty sure you shouldn't be able to hold your hand a couple of centimetres from where the steam comes out whilst pressing it on full "

"it does not clean !"

"very angry and upset as there is nothing wrong with the steamer itself just the attachment but this experience has obviously put me off using this item or any replacement again"

"beware at this point it takes a few squeezes of the button to get the hot water out of the pipe and steam coming out"

"when plugged in which isn't really the purpose of the product the cleaner will last maybe 5 minutes longer then it needs to be refilled if it hasn't run out of steam already or recharged"

"it’s nigh on impossible to use even with two bare hands let alone gloved hands which you may well use when cleaning"

"the handle is not ergonomic at all and its really uncomfortable to hold"

"it also left all my windiws streaky"

"i've found it a nuisance but i guess if you've got children it may be useful"

"i tried wrapping a terry towel round the head tied on with a rubber band and moving it along each time it got dirty but that was a right faff and the upholstery was not looking any cleaner"

"i may have to return it"

"had i been aware of this restriction before buying i would not have bought it"

"i have got to send this item back the instructions say to press the steam button lightly but nothing came out so i had to press down really hard to get it to work i have dexterity problems so to hold the button down hard for more than a few seconds is not possible i think the button may have been faulty as it was very stiff and yes it was open the machine it's self is very compact and light weight"

"spray lasts approx 15 secs then needs refilling"

"poor product"

"used it to try and clean a shower stopper on the top is to so difficult to release "

"do not buy quality very poor"

"this also made a good window cleaner the only flaw this item has is that it doesnt have enough cleaning pad as you only get 1 with the item"

"half an hour later with the floor of the shower covered with disgusting black mould and grime the tracks and trolleys were like new"

"my only annoying thing is getting the cap off so many times i’ve turned it and it’s not coming off"

"my wife first tried it to clean the fabric on one of our dining chairs but could not operate the excessively stiff steam button"

"99 i think it's too expensive"

"but our quadrant shower cubicle with its close fitting sliding doors has always been impossible to clean around the bottom trolleys and tracks"

"so i'm reserving my views until i'm sure it lasts at least afew months becoz i hav'nt found products last that long these days?"

"both parts should fit together using a screw like connection"

"had i paid £89 for this i would be a bit annoyed but for the price i paid you cannot fault the product too much because the core cleaning performance is top notch"

"the greasy putty slowly clean than traditional merhod"

"does tend to spit water out on first use but soon because steam"

"the accessories are pretty average they all work ok but you only get one cloth and the scrubbing heads don't last too long"

"i think is the safety cap has failed"

"can't stop cleaning"

"it cut through the orange staining on the grout and soap scum that had built up very easily and even got rid of a bit of mould that was under the plug rim"

"the only slight drawback was knowing how much water was left in the container a window like on a stream iron would have been helpful"

"i found it almost impossible to clean the windows as the nozzle just drops to the down position and its incredibly difficult use in this way"

"was a nightmare to open to close the top cannister if it wasn’t closed properly it would heat up and when it was closed if you wanted to open it to refill or empty the screw was threading may have been a bad egg in the box but i got it!"

"unfortunately had to return the item due to the limited capacity"

"it specifies that you shouldn't put more than 250ml of water in it that you shouldn't incline it more than 45 degrees that you should wear gloves etc"

"i used this to clean my fabric sofa good result but not amazing for the price i paid i really cannot complain"

"it takes about 5 10 mins before it needs refilling"

"powers dirt off venetian blinds and other hard non porous surfaces : cons: canister holds enough water to steam for about 20 mins"

"the noise gave me tinnitus"

"i wanted a product that was light and easy to use for cleaning tile grout this is ideal as it heats quickly doesn't weigh much and lets you do a wee bit at a time"

"do not buy this product unless you have a reinforced steel thumb!"

"had i been aware of this restriction before buying i would not have bought it"

"the truth is when not plugged in it lasts anywhere from between 5 and 10 minutes that's if it hasn't run out of steam already"

"do not but this product"

"you can't work continous"

"no power and messy!"

"still not used though"

"you can't really go wrong"

"i tried wrapping a terry towel round the head tied on with a rubber band and moving it along each time it got dirty but that was a right faff and the upholstery was not looking any cleaner"

"meanwhile the dirt was laughing at my pathetic attempts to defeat it"

"the steam button is cheap and nasty and i can only get steam out if i push it hard with both hands at the same time"

"there was grime everywhere on the outside but the intricate areas i just couldn’t get to"

"accept that it takes a few minutes to boil like a kettle and you will have nothing to complain about"

"didn't produce steam and when i removed the lid steam gushed out the top"

"i wasn’t expecting much but the box is packed full of useful tools most of which i haven’t used yet"

"it's the dogs booaks does exactly as advertised"

"i wold not buy it again"

"this arrived today everything in the box as should be simple operating instructions but actual steamer just a little on the heavy side and feel that lock and steam button would have been better on side of handle not top"

"for this reason it lost a star"

"so far initial 'bugs' resolved it works well and produces a good shot of steam"

"all they use is water so no nasty chemicals to leave that after smell that stays for ages after using"

"this should be able to clean a oven but it cant you cant clean anytging as far as i can find im not happy with it and i wil be sending it back"

"you can cut through any grease mould grout or stain with our high pressure portable steamer"

"i bought this because i had a massive gin tonic stain on my sofa"

"wonder why i never had one before"

"it kind of does what it's meant to however the push button for getting the steam through the pipes is the most fiddliest thing i have ever encountered"

"there is no on off switch there is a go stop button for steam but we forgot to turn it off at the plug so was left on for 30 mins nothing big but just to say"

"i've tried cleaning the bathroom tiles the grouting a car seat and a curtain and it hasn't made any difference"

"can be difficult when cleaning awkward corners places"

"accept that it takes a few minutes to boil like a kettle and you will have nothing to complain about"

"barely cleans at all and needs water refill far too often"

"after ready the clear instructions i assembled it and tested it on my bathroom sink and found it didn't really achieve much other than making my sink warm and wet"

"it is also suited for sealed surfaces including ceramic vinyl laminate granite marble and sealed hard surfaces such as sinks stoves countertops refrigerators furniture floors windows bathroom tiles shower curtains litter boxes and car seats"

"i bought this because i was scared i had brought back bed bugs from a trip and i wanted to steam all my cloths"

"you could unplug this whilst it it hot and use it in other places for example i used it to clean the plastic ledge outside on my balcony so whilst it is corded you can technically use it as a fully handheld portable device"

"the 2 little plastic holders that you would attach the tools with broke off on day 1"

"if you have strong dirts dont wait surprise!"

"product returned as not easy to use to hold down childlock & steam release at the same time"

"the appliance spewed out more hot water than steam and made even more of a mess of my windows"

"this does let out some high pressured steam but doesn't really deep clean"

"i hate the smell of bleach so my carer told me to get one of these"

"i can not clean that thing what i can't clean before"

"had makeup stain on my white carpet didn't do anything"

"used to take off dried grout of tiles"

"tested it on multiple jobs and it wasn't up to any of them"

"i haven't tried the fabric steamer attachment yet the others work well i suggest trying them on before you try to use them it did take me a bit to figure out the window cleaning attachment and the small hook attachment will fly off you you use it full force right away if you start the steam slowly it stays on well to use it full power"

"hi all massive apology i think the lid is a safety feature cant take it off when it is hot"

"reason for four stars is that it doesn't hold much water and you have to wait till it cools before putting in more water not good if you are in the middle of a job"

"left it alone for a few moments before trying the steam cleaner with the attachment lying on my hearth because i was obviously wary and it was then that i saw that steam was coming out of the extender tube rather than the end of the fabric cleaner attachment"

"absolutely shocking!"

"i wanted a product that was light and easy to use for cleaning tile grout this is ideal as it heats quickly doesn't weigh much and lets you do a wee bit at a time"

"now it's cooled down the lid can be screwed off"

"was a total waste of money luckily i was still in the right to return it was a present and i done such a bad impression"

"very disappointed"

"one drawback with this is when the tank empties it takes forever to cool down enough to put more water in"

"literally the worst product i've ever bought on amazon"

"i found it very difficult to put this steamer together it was very hard for my hands and i had to use quite a lot of force"

"looks and feels more expensive than it is as well"

"the steam with the attachment on it was producing a very limited steam power in terms of steam volume not its temperature and it was not cleaning anything"

"however elbow grease is needed alongside the steam cleaner"

"i wouldn't mind if i was particularly dirty and everything was full of grease mould!"

"waste of money only used once didn't clean like i expected it too useful for sterilising areas i suppose"

"so i would not recommend this at all and sending it back for a refund"

"is a little heavy"

"poor quality"

"only downside is it runs out of steam fairly quickly needing a top up"

"i find the product cumbersome to handle and the instructions could be better"

"this may be the case for most cheap hand held cleaners as the pressure is just not enough to shift burnt on grease"

"the tank is empty within 5 minutes & it is impossible to refill the water tank until the steamer has cooled down again which takes ages!"

"the only negative is it's water capacity but then it would be too heavy to hold if it was more"

"it's okay but the water chamber is very small so it requires constant filling up"

"the attachments are very poor quality i've used one once while trying to lightly clean the grout in my floor tiles the hairs are all now splayed and not fit for purpose after around two mins of use!"

"unless i am not using this item correctly aand both me and my wife have tried it is a complete waste of money does nothing ur hands and water cant do very poor"

"an utter waste of money"

"brush just collapses"

"this is heavy and quite annoying to use"

"really disappointed"

"cleans with a sweep even the hardest stains but if found that after the second day the light stopped coming on although it still heated which is hack ya big deal"

"returned straight away horrible thing!"

"to add to the problem hermes managed to lose the return parcel possibly the worst carrier in the world"

"it just didn't do anything apart from blowing hot steam on mold limescale stains on windows tyre marks on ceramic plastic marks in the bath armpit stains on t shirt and many more"

"i started using one of the brushes to clean the grout but after two attempts the steam had completely disintigrated the nylon brushes making the brush totally unusable!"

"poor run time "

"i bought this after searching endless reviews for a handheld steam cleaner although i haven't used it extensively just really need an extra pair of hands and more hours in the day i have started to use it in the kitchen and on my window frames and the results were impressive"

"unsatisfactory product!"

"it's ready to use in under a minute and small enough to store in the under sink cupboard"

"i was cleaning it with a limescale remover for kettles every other use"

"the number of times i have not been able to use it as i just cannot get the lid to screw down properly puts me off using it"

"it did break down the grease into tiny rolled flakes but it wasn't going anywhere with just a wipe"

"a very flimsy bayonet fitting is used with the result that the window cleaner just falls off"

"lots of different attachments for different jobs but i am afraid it is just not powerful enough to remove mildew from tiles grouting even using the special tool"

"for the 10 minutes i was able to use it it produced very poor result did not remove mould at all from washing machine detergent drawer which was the reason i bought it for"

"although the steam may sanitise the surface it did not remove any burnt on oil or grease from the cooker surface and anything that it did remove was probably due to the scrubbing action from the attachment rather than the stream"

"really bad didn't clean anything no oil removed no dirt removed no toilet cleaned so i was not really bothered with it return it and used my usual cleaning product"

"i dried them off but they were left very streaky"

"maybe my expectations were too high after the advertising you see for these machines?"

"this machine only melts and grease on the tiles you still need to wipe it away with paper towel or cloth"

"in my opinion this is essential for who has little babies exploring: touching and tasting kills bacteria without using hazardous chemicals!"

"i've read many negative comments about this but i've found it's shifted baked on stains limescale and lots of other difficult dirt"

"i read somewhere that you can't buy replacement attachments"

"without using any of the tools it blasted gunge from unreachable places around taps and shifted a buildup of debris from the shower shelves"

"to add to the problem hermes managed to lose the return parcel possibly the worst carrier in the world"

"using the steamer on the grout had very little impact to the grime i found it was much quicker to use a decent grout cleaner and a scrubbing brush instead and as for the hob it just steamed up the kitchen with little cleaning effect as before i recommend using a decent cleaning agent and some elbow grease some time the doing it the old fashion way works best"

"overall it may be good for sanitising and removing loose dirt and grease but do not expect expect it to do much on the tougher cleaning jobs"

"trouble shooting descaling hasnt helped"

"the pressure dips after a long blast requiring a brief wait but that wasn't a problem for me i took the opportunity to rest my arm for the few seconds & to assess progress"

"the surfaces looked better but they still needed to go through the dishwasher so no advantage there"

"it's always easier to shift a problem on"

"bottom of two frying pans again they came out of it as bad as before"

"cleaning of the kitchen extractor hood was a breeze also use it to basically melt and soften the accumulated grease before wiping down perfect as i needed to replace the halogen light fitting and needed to clean all the nooks and crannies before i started"

"trouble shooting descaling hasnt helped"

"this is the most useless thing i have ever bought"

"for some dubious reason which recommend this junk for windows sponsored?"

"really bad didn't clean anything no oil removed no dirt removed no toilet cleaned so i was not really bothered with it return it and used my usual cleaning product"

"disappointed that the unit is not very powerful and struggles to remove any in ground dirt"

"i never leave reviews however as this is such an appalling product recommend by the which guide god knows why they do!"

"heavy cumbersome leaky it spat steam and was empty in under a couple of minutes"

"the only negative is it's water capacity but then it would be too heavy to hold if it was more"

"in my opinion this is essential for who has little babies exploring: touching and tasting kills bacteria without using hazardous chemicals!"

"from the beginning it would leak a little and spit water from the seal as it was heating but today it just stopped heating altogether"

"not used it on my cooker yet but hoping it will redeem itself in the kitchen after it failed dismally in the bathroom!"

"now after less than 6 months of in frequent use the fibre washer on the lid which prevents pressure from escaping has started to perish"

"i bought this after searching endless reviews for a handheld steam cleaner although i haven't used it extensively just really need an extra pair of hands and more hours in the day i have started to use it in the kitchen and on my window frames and the results were impressive"

"broke down for no reason but thankfully amazon are great and replaced it"

"also there's only one microfiber rug if you clean windows with it it will get disgustingly dirty after one usage"

"removing stubborn black mould marks on sealant will need a few more goes to get rid completely as it will tend to melt the thinner bits of sealant so be careful!"

"there is no option available"

"though this steam cleaner did help to remove some of the day to day house dirt i was rather disappointed with the end result"

"this is a great little gadget and cleaned the outside of our white upvc conservatory brilliantly it's been up for nearly 20 years and was looking a bit tired but this brought it up a treat looks like new"

"unless i am not using this item correctly aand both me and my wife have tried it is a complete waste of money does nothing ur hands and water cant do very poor"

"it's not bad quite heavy which is sometimes awkward"

"the place you hold an attachment feels quite loose like it could come off at anytime the brush scrub attachment became deformed bristles after using it less than 10mins covering the area where steam comes out runs out of water relatively quickly= have to switch off take lid off =quite hard like a kid trying to open a medicine bottle have to wait couple of mins "

"i had a go at removing splashes from the inside of the glass door of the oven and though there was a difference it was not completely clean"

"this may be the case for most cheap hand held cleaners as the pressure is just not enough to shift burnt on grease"

"i wouldn't mind if i was particularly dirty and everything was full of grease mould!"

"does not destroy urine smells as i was hoping and not as easy cleaning oven as i thought"

"instructions are scant"

"do not waste your money"

"attachment hose tangles so you’re forever untwisting it"

"should really have returned same"

"condensed steam or water in its liquid phase"

"i'm not too impressed with the amount of water it produces for windows but i used my hand held rubber swidgy and got a great result"

"somewhat disappointed in this"

"it removed a small stain in a carpet was nowhere as effective as using a cleaning agent with water on the garage doors and made some impact on the panels but took a long time to do so and then the panels had to be washed down anyway"

"i have arthritis in my wrists and hands and find it very heavy and not easy to manipulate"

"but then again it wouldn't be hand held if it contained too much water"

"it did not appear to have enough power to remove surface grease never mind carbon deposits on the gas cooker burners or oven necessitating the resorting to previous hand cleaning methods"

"the place you hold an attachment feels quite loose like it could come off at anytime the brush scrub attachment became deformed bristles after using it less than 10mins covering the area where steam comes out runs out of water relatively quickly= have to switch off take lid off =quite hard like a kid trying to open a medicine bottle have to wait couple of mins "

"it ok but not what i thought it would be sorry"

"in my opinion this is essential for who has little babies exploring: touching and tasting kills bacteria without using hazardous chemicals!"

"you get a measuring jug with it but there is no way of telling how much water is inside and it warns you about putting in the right amount so only option is to empty any remaining every time you fill it up or just put in until full which i presume is bad for it "

"takes too long to cool down when cap allows release 15 minutes later you begin to lose the will to live"

"i hope that i'll have more success removing light makeup stains on my daughter's bedroom carpet"

"useful but not very effective as the size and pressure of steam is not very high"

"particularly good for nooks and crannies in the shower cubicles and other awkward places"

"however in my opinion it is an ill conceived concept"

"however i was unable to top up as the cap on the water tank got completely stuck"

"the hoover steamer does generate a lot of steam to clean grim and muck"

"difficult to open and close we found it heavy when using it otherwise it was great"

"having read reviews more good than bad decided to purchase"

"also you will need to keep buying replacement brushes as they wear out quickly but to be fair i am sure this will apply to other brands also"

"may have just been unlucky"

"i have only used it once on tiles in a bathroom and only used the one "head" which "wore down" really quickly and i thought at the time "oh dear i need to buy replacement heads already""

"i found that the steamer of limited use in the bathroom though didn't really manage to remove stains in the grouting may need to reattempt after applying some commercial bathroom cleaning products"

"terrible product an i've also cancelled my which subscription!"

"it does have a pathetic little mop head for some applications"

"attachment hose tangles so you’re forever untwisting it"

"i have tried it on several surfaces including carpet stains dirty garage doors and solar panels covered in bird s***"

"it removed a small stain in a carpet was nowhere as effective as using a cleaning agent with water on the garage doors and made some impact on the panels but took a long time to do so and then the panels had to be washed down anyway"

"this makes the steamer utterly useless to me"

"however the length of or lack of the lead lets this down"

"coupled with the fact that it's only a few inches wide cleaning windows with it is just a joke"

"tank too small"

"i was not able to use any attachments since it was not doing its job the steam was too gently to remove any grime i was using it mainly to clean up my window seals from all the grime"

"returned straight away horrible thing!"

"for the 10 minutes i was able to use it it produced very poor result did not remove mould at all from washing machine detergent drawer which was the reason i bought it for"

"you get several tools to make it very versatile and the fact that you use plain water means there's no lingering chemical smells after use"

"but i have such trouble with the lid both screwing it on and taking it off you have to press hard all the time"

"i expected to be able to wipe away the grease after blasting it with steam"

"steamer looks like high quality product but it is quite heavy in a hand"

"i've read many negative comments about this but i've found it's shifted baked on stains limescale and lots of other difficult dirt"

"the tank is empty within 5 minutes & it is impossible to refill the water tank until the steamer has cooled down again which takes ages!"

"additionally i called hoover to register the cleaner not possible online "

"not happy with it the noise hurt my ears and they were still ringing 20 minutes after!"

"if this is a common fault then the product is dangerous"

"i then tried steaming the outside"

"it just didn't do anything apart from blowing hot steam on mold limescale stains on windows tyre marks on ceramic plastic marks in the bath armpit stains on t shirt and many more"

"result again ziltch"

"steam is quite loud low steam after 20 30 seconds use red light then have to wait around 30 seconds for the light to go green the place you hold gets quite hot including the pipe from the nozzle"

"instructionsa bit vague but easy to figure out"

"worse is steam is lukewarm!"

"the design is basically cheap chinese rubbish"

"just hold the ergonomic red button down above the handle and out comes the steam in a nice powerful flow"

"it did not appear to have enough power to remove surface grease never mind carbon deposits on the gas cooker burners or oven necessitating the resorting to previous hand cleaning methods"

"pretty disappointing"

"i'm afraid that i probably wouldn't recommend it"

"i have returned the product and would say that if you have problems with your hands eg rheumatism arthritis you may find assembly too hard"

"so much easier than my old one which was big and bulky"

"it did not even remove fresh t stains from the sink"

"it just didn't do anything apart from blowing hot steam on mold limescale stains on windows tyre marks on ceramic plastic marks in the bath armpit stains on t shirt and many more"

"it did not appear to have enough power to remove surface grease never mind carbon deposits on the gas cooker burners or oven necessitating the resorting to previous hand cleaning methods"

"this machine only melts and grease on the tiles you still need to wipe it away with paper towel or cloth"

"i need to get myself a small dry room"

"cleaned bits of wood with ingrained dark stains on wooden floor and steps"

"this is awful i have a karcher but wanted a small hand steamer what a mistake"

"on the plus side the water tank lasts longer than i expected it was very easy to use and not too heavy to lug around"

"this is a great little gadget and cleaned the outside of our white upvc conservatory brilliantly it's been up for nearly 20 years and was looking a bit tired but this brought it up a treat looks like new"

"on the plus side the water tank lasts longer than i expected it was very easy to use and not too heavy to lug around"

"difficult to open and close we found it heavy when using it otherwise it was great"

"waste of money would not buy again"

"i would not buy another"

"i bought this mainly to clean my tile grouting and unfortunately it didn't make much difference"

"i disliked the fact that you have to keep filling it up however accept that is the downside of a hand held machine otherwise it would be too heavy"

"very disappointed it's nothing like i was expecting tried it on the cooker and the grouting in the bathroom it didn't touch it gonna bin it"

"hose obviously gets hot so be careful"

"what a disappointment"

"one drawback with this is when the tank empties it takes forever to cool down enough to put more water in"

"however it does take a very long time to do a small area maybe i am too picky and probably was expecting miracles !"

"i expected to be able to wipe away the grease after blasting it with steam"

"cleaning power is poor and you run out of steam very quickly"

"very disappointing performance"

"not over impressed"

"tank capacity inadequate as seem to spend on filling the tank not working with it "

"now after 3 years i think limescale completely stuck in the nozzle and the steam does not go through it"

"made light work of a hob that has not been looked after"

"we always used de ionised water not tapwater"

"really handy round the house cleans in the corners where you can't reach"

"anyway: no durability no pressure "

"i found it useless"

"but i found it didn’t work as needed"

"very good but the steam doesn't last very long"

"cleans with a sweep even the hardest stains but if found that after the second day the light stopped coming on although it still heated which is hack ya big deal"

"i had two areas i wanted to clean up one being the grout in the shower was becoming discoloured the other was my stainless steel hob in the kitchen setting up the steamer is quite straight forward however if you wish to hold the steamer with one hand and scrub with the other you will find the angle of the steam nozzle difficult to direct and if you use the flexy hose you will need two hands and whilst your messing around with that it will run out of steam"

"it good stemer but i seen theme in shop for £10 like lidal but not hover"

"to add to the problem hermes managed to lose the return parcel possibly the worst carrier in the world"

"used the plastic round brush on tiles for 5 minutes and it now looks like an old toothbrush"

"it just didn't do anything apart from blowing hot steam on mold limescale stains on windows tyre marks on ceramic plastic marks in the bath armpit stains on t shirt and many more"

"cleaning is so much easier & is not so much of a chore anymore i look for things to clean & my home is now like new"

"tried for example to clean oven rungs and grill tray but found it to be useless at removing burn on stains even though changed to different attachments and had to end up using alternative cleaning"

"other than windows it can’t clean much"

"the attachments are very poor quality i've used one once while trying to lightly clean the grout in my floor tiles the hairs are all now splayed and not fit for purpose after around two mins of use!"

"using the steamer on the grout had very little impact to the grime i found it was much quicker to use a decent grout cleaner and a scrubbing brush instead and as for the hob it just steamed up the kitchen with little cleaning effect as before i recommend using a decent cleaning agent and some elbow grease some time the doing it the old fashion way works best"

"the scourer brush clogged up very quickly and was difficult to clean"

"however the problem i found was that you can not use it for long periods of time due to the water running out and have to wait at least 20 minutes for it to cool down and to be able to open the lid"

"you need an extension cord for places like the shower"

"i never leave reviews however as this is such an appalling product recommend by the which guide god knows why they do!"

"in my first order the squeegee part wouldn't click in right but i contacted amazon and they where really helpful and sent out a new one i only wanted a new accessorie part but the company itself couldn't do it but amazon resolved it"

"i can have no idea as to how effective this might be but it makes me feel better"

"the second it turns red water starts dribbling out and creates a mess"

"tried it but was not happy will try it again perhaps i'm doing something wrong"

"this was not tackled until the next day and you can hardly see a mark"

"for some dubious reason which recommend this junk for windows sponsored?"

"the only thing i'd say is due to the small water container the steam quickly runs out and for safety reasons cannot be re filled until fully cooled"

"full marks there"

"only used once and left in the box waste of money"

"useless for discoloured mouldy grout in bathroom"

"the hoover website states 'the steam express handy easily tackles stubborn spots around the home from oven grills tile grout to bathroom taps and showerheads with complete ease"

"it just didn't do anything apart from blowing hot steam on mold limescale stains on windows tyre marks on ceramic plastic marks in the bath armpit stains on t shirt and many more"

"then there came a day about a month after i'd taken delivery when it just stopped"

"we consider this steam cleaner a little miracle when used to clean a cooker which had not been cleaned say no more!"

"to cool down before you can refill it which makes it very frustrating for larger jobs"

"i had high hopes of a miracle cleaner which would get the sunk in dirt off my oven"

"broke after the second use"

"the steam with the attachment on it was producing a very limited steam power in terms of steam volume not its temperature and it was not cleaning anything"

"what is ejected from the nozzle is simply water vapour i"
