Portable steamer
This black steam cleaner with its adjustable handle and different included attachments is handy for deep cleaning around the house. Most often I roll it out to tackle the greasy spots on our stovetop and under the range hood. With two kids who like to “help” in the kitchen and a dog who naps on the sofa, I wanted something stronger than a regular spray bottle. The high-temperature steam combined with the brush head makes it easier to loosen cooked-on splatters. After running the brush over an area, I wipe with a kitchen towel and can literally see more residue lifting off than when using just warm water. It’s also light enough for me to carry from the kitchen to the living room without feeling cumbersome, and the water tank is simple to fill at the sink. The adjustable handle lets me switch from lower cabinets to higher spots without bending awkwardly. I’ve also used it on the darker patches on our sofa fabric where the dog jumps up after playing outside. The steam helps refresh the fabric so it looks cleaner once blotted dry. The included tools nozzles, small brushes, and pads give a lot of ways to clean different surfaces, even though I haven’t tried them all yet. The hose length is decent and feels sturdy when pulling it across the floor. The only drawbacks I’ve noticed are that it takes a little while to heat up fully and you have to pause to refill if you are doing a big job. Also, the smaller brush heads can get warm to the touch after extended use, so I wear a glove for longer sessions. With those quirks, it has been a steady helper for greasy areas and pet-related messes with less needing harsh chemicals. Read more
