Anyone got one of those household steam cleaners advertised on TV?

Looks like a load of hot air to me.

they're not as good as they make out on the tv ads

Mrs Lapsy likes her vaporetto 950, believe it is quite good on hard surfaces as in bathroom/kitchen though she likes to give everything a go,settee,carpets etc,probably sterilises them anyway. Be honest never used it myself,her mate borrows it every month or so and she likes it as well. Used the karcher for cleaning the windows alright and that makes them better than what they were.

Mother-in-law had one apparently - and she's in agreement with MisterBadger.

the wife had one but don't remember the make and she was not impressed

Thanks for the replies.

Looks like I'll have to think of something else to get 'er indoors for Christmas.

no good on dark tiles, make a right mess when they dry, a waste of time

What you want is an ABDODE..about £30..does the job well(according to my misses).She has a vaporetto and she says its too heavy and  it takes the paint off the wain-skirting.

No good.  And it's a crap Christmas present. How would you like to get one?

We got one and the effin lid jammed on it. Agree with the other replies

Nick..get her a new ironing board..women love em

I would but it's obvious what it is before it's unwrapped

I don't have that but I got the window vac
Very useful

H20 x5 mop  green thing watch the demo on utube

I just use it for the floor to be honest
