Mouseketeer Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Not a bad price whatever and reviews were one extreme to the other so not much help......might have to just test drive at home first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I bought one for work just before the holidays and so I HAD to test it at home. If its not tied down, its been steam cleaned to within an inch of its life!!!!! Theres only another week of the holidays to go so i had better get on with it as there are still 2 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms to do plus the cooker (again) and the frock I need for new years eve.

mundia Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 we just invested in a steam cleaner, not a hand held one but t'was still half price in a well known catalogue store (other shops are available!). It has been road tested and is great for the doormats and has made a start on the cooker, but at risk of turning into cleaning goddess, I had to take a lie down. I am looking for a hand held one that will do my chicken house and which only gets used for that purpose, so let us know once you have road tested please.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Am I alone then in just not getting it? I have the 'green' one, still in it's box - I have tried to feel the love and used it twice, but I just feel disappointed with the results. My dad bought it for me after seeing it on tv. I think he wants me to use it in his house but I really hate the thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lashes2508 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I bought one from a tv shopping channel and had my money's worth and also a handheld one from aldi to use at work , both do the job but the carpets at work don' t come up as well as I hoped although at least I know they clean !

Not sure louby - I haven't got one - but think I might invest - not a huge fan of any sort 'cleaning' :blink: but anything that makes it easier has to be a good thing! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is my problem- I was expecting magic... all I got was frizzy hair, misted glasses and a lot of damp carpets!!! And as for the oven cleaning...... oven pride is much easier (well an oven cleaning company is the best!!) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I was unsure too but on a member of staff advice I bought a Pifco one which converts to a handheld as well and its blooming marvellous and I like not having to use chemicals. Its been really good on my carpets (at home) so am hopeful for preschool when I be persuaded to part with it and take it to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing to get play dough out is use a Blunt knife and scrape it out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
