Steam cleaner (steam generator)

My PG spits regardless of the amount of water poured in, i.e. spits all the time

So you have a "defect" ... this should definitely not be ... maybe a problem with the heating element, that is, it does not heat the water to a steam state ..

I opted for the Odyssey 801. Girls, who have such a model, please tell me, is it worth taking, or should I wait, but then take it at a higher price?

I have one! Here I bought it (see the first report on this page)

Their internet fears didn't come true! The floors are almost dry, dry in half a minute, the steam is perfectly regulated from its complete absence to a powerful jet!

And I can't buy myself a steam generator. I want a professional one for small ateliers or hotels. Silter, 2.5 kV, 1.5-2 liters, with pressure gauge and steam regulation. They offer only household items.

Creamy, this is a steam iron, right? And what should they steam at home in industrial volumes?

That's what I read, and now I really regret that I bought it (bulky, inconvenient), if I saw it in real life, and not in a picture in an online store, I would never have bought it. I would add 1,500 and buy Karcher.

[Оlaola1]

Оlaola1, let's see the points
Very large, a lot of nozzles, bulky.
Well ... the size of an average vacuum cleaner (in the same place a "bladder" as much as 2 liters), it is much smaller than the washing vacuum cleaners that I looked at in the store. Klatronic is not much less than Odyssey, about Karcher - I don't know, I haven't seen it alive. I chose it by the number of attachments for the lowest price. The most necessary of them, in my opinion: a point nozzle, for washing windows, for ironing, for cleaning the floor, a round plastic brush. The cloth attachment is used for ironing only (small). Useless (never used yet): angle nozzle and metal brush. The hanger is not often, but I use it, putting it on the poles from the kit.

... there is a lot of water on the floor, I have to wipe it with a rag, I tried to put a floor rag on the nozzle (I have microfiber) - it's very hard to carry.
The pressure regulator rotates exactly 3.5 turns, turn it clockwise (towards the letter L) until it stops - then the steam should not come out at all or leak out a little with a barely visible smoke. Is it hard to carry ... a rag? Ahh, well, maybe it's just because of the big puddle under the rag. It is as easy to crawl with a semi-damp microfiber as with a mop. For ironing clothes, there is also a minimum of steam, so that only heat goes on, and be sure to attach a cloth to the nozzle.

... the round brush immediately failed.
It's a shame. What's wrong with her? On my steam jug, the nozzle worked for a year and did not climb out, it just spread out like an old toothbrush.

Spits water during operation (all attachments).
This is strange. Even just a gun without nozzles spits? I usually start at the weakest steam level, warm up the trunk. Mine does not spit even in pauses, when the green indicator is not lit - it just does not give out steam, it blows with air. The jug suffers from this, but as soon as it warms up, it stops writing.

Girls, thanks to everyone who responded for participation !!!
Only now I am completely confused !!!
And another question: as soon as I run out of water in the tank, respectively, the steam runs out. Top up the trail. Is it possible to add a portion of water only after cooling? Or can you top up while working? And how long are these two liters? Can I clean one floor at a time?

And another question: as soon as I run out of water in the tank, respectively, the steam runs out. Top up the trail. Is it possible to add a portion of water only after cooling?

yes .. because the heating elements will be hot ... that is, if you explain it on your "fingers" ... then it can be equated to such a process: that you pour water into a hot frying pan ... it will be about the same and with steamer ..

And how long are these two liters? Can I clean one floor at a time?

It depends on what exactly you will clean .. during the first cleaning, perhaps this amount of water will not be enough, and then you will "indulge-play" with a steam generator once or twice a month ... again, it depends on the degree and speed of pollution of your house with yours. household ...

It depends on what area. The first time I cleaned two rooms, the corridor and the kitchen (a total of 40-45 squares), I went through the same gas station twice (about a liter), but the steam is minimal, so as not to run the rag, do not wring it out. Do you want me to check and unsubscribe tomorrow?

Girls, well, the first floor is the very hateful porcelain stoneware, 80 sq. m., plus dignity. node and kitchen.
And on the second floor there is only dignity. the node is planned to be washed with steam generator, well, windows (if it seems to me more convenient than the usual, usual way), and yet I would also like to wash the laminate with a steam cleaner, and this is 120 sq. m.
I just have such dreams - the rumbic went through dust and debris, and I disinfected the floors with a steam cleaner ..... Fairy tale ...

Wasp, well, let's point by point, if you really want to defend your position. Size - 45x28x20, weight without water 4 kg !!!, plus a rather heavy hose. I washed the windows from the stem, I had to hold the pistol in one hand, the PG in the other, because it is inconvenient to wash with extension cords, they are not rigidly attached, but have a slight backlash. Comparison with washing vacuum cleaners is not entirely correct, they are completely different things. As for ironing, it makes sense to iron on a little heat and a minimum amount of steam, the whole point is to steam, and not to supply a little heat (well, perhaps only for delicate fabrics). The round brush has turned into a disk, that is, it has flattened out under the influence of temperature, so it is impossible to clean the seams between the tiles. Again, when washing the floors, the bars bend and. It is much easier for me to mop the floors.

Olaola1, I apologize for my persistence. Well, I'm sticking with the best intentions. What if he really has a defect in the thermal sensor (or something else), and this prevents him from working? Let me explain my position: two of my male colleagues bought bread makers from a fairly "average" manufacturer in March. Both of them did not get bread. The first one said that it was HP's fault, it bakes badly and now only the dough in it is kneading into pies, and the second one blasted me for three weeks with questions "what and how", tried all the surrounding flour, and as a result began to get wonderful fragrant loaves! Another comrade, after a month of torment, said that all kitchen appliances are complete garbage and serve to pump out money, as proof, he offered me to accept an almost unused 12-liter airfryer as a gift. It is quite possible that AG is defective, therefore it does not bake ...
You are right about shirts, it is made of artificial lye and synthetics - just heat it up and the bruises will straighten themselves. For pure cotton, the temperature is not enough, but a pure cotton shirt (fortunately) is the only one (it is also not very ironed with an iron).
When washing the windows from the stool, I put the steam cleaner on the window sill, cleaned the far corners with extension nozzles. Probably just a habit ... there used to be a telescopic mop. Balcony windows can be removed and washed downstairs.

Smoke, for you: it took 215 grams of water to clean the floor in the entire apartment (except for the balcony). In terms of area, it was about 45-50 squares. The steam regulator is unscrewed 1/4 turn from the extreme minimum position. I ran the rag about 3 times for washing each room, during which time another portion of steam was generated.

Fortunately, my husband has all his shirts made of pure cotton - I iron them. Although my window sills are wide, the gas generator does not fit on them, and I see no reason to fence stools to put the gas generator. Yes, and outside washing windows on the 8th floor with this SG is risky, because I already wrote about a heavy hose and bending extension rods.
Let's finish the discussion, you won't change my mind. Once again, I was convinced of the correctness of the saying - we are not rich enough to buy cheap things.

Olga, the girls are trying to help you and explain and figure out what the problem is ... if you didn't need and are not interested from the very beginning, so why come in and write here about your problems .. and about the last phrase I will tell you ...
And yet .. for the first time (in the fall of that year) I searched and bought for myself the cheapest steam generator, which turned out to be Odyssey 402 .. and he undertook precisely with the aim of understanding "do I need him (PG) at all ???" .... and here I would have turned your phrase "upside down" .. I not so rich as to buy a thing and not know if I will use it ...

And if you have a defect in the product (in the PG) - carry it and boldly hand it back .. the law on consumer protection has not been canceled yet! Good luck with the purchase of a new PG !!!

Girls, I'm reporting. I cleaned the balcony today. The windows were very dirty. My windows overlook a rather busy road and are covered with black mud. And all surfaces are covered with the same black soot: frames, windowsill, walls. I liked cleaning with a steam cleaner, all the dirt was quickly and easily removed, but still there were strips from the nozzle, drops of water on the windows, it was easily removed and brought to a shine with a microfiber cloth for glass. And I also cleaned the balcony from the inside with a steam generator. And everything that is upholstered with wood, and a brick wall. Usually in the spring I wiped it all with a wet mop, and then I spent it with a steam cleaner with a cloth wound around it and that's it, cleanliness. Even the smell on the balcony has changed. I also processed the old chair. It has clearly become cleaner, it has ceased to smell so much dust. I am very pleased. Thanks to everyone who wrote in this thread and helped in choosing.

Chamomile, what kind of steam do you have?

Chamomile, what kind of steam do you have?

What is written under the avatar.

Oh, thanks for the answer!
I, the head of the garden, while here you do not quite understand what and how!

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1, let the balcony now always smell of freshness, not dust!
The droplets will disappear if the glass is washed two, three, five times. But this is the first time you wash with a steam cleaner - as with a stove, you need to remove an annual layer of dirt. Then it will be easier. When, after the repair, I wiped off the cement dust, I had to disassemble and wash the nozzle itself from blackness a couple of times, and also wipe it with a rag after each pass. Of course, I also helped the steam cleaner with a rag on the mop, but the final part was already a nozzle with a rubber band. You can see that at first the glass is wet, there are stripes that can turn white when dry, then it seems to become cleaner, the next pass even fewer droplets and on the last one you can see how the water "runs" behind the rubber band, sticking off the glass like from plasticine (for some reason, then the glass is made hydrophobic). At this stage, all dewdrops are shaken off with an elastic band, leaving absolutely no traces. You can first steam the window and, without steam, wave the nozzle several times - shake off the water droplets. The feeling is that it is morning dew on the grass ... the drops just roll down, just touch them. Plain tap water, filtered.And after such a bath, new dirt sticks to the glass more slowly.

Yesterday I washed the windows with steam .. I didn’t like it like that of Chamomile Klatronic .. I didn’t like it - just like with a hand one ... ..washed off only the top layer of dust, and then the old fashioned napkin + Wedge ... But with steam all the same a little faster ... but to wash the floors ... and carpets ... ..

I almost forgot .. .. yesterday I was ironing the PG curtains .. here I am 99% delighted ...

Let's go to the topic of steam lovers, we will not litter here

I am here

I also)))

from small ... cheap or expensive? will be in use, then it is better to take an expensive one, and if it can, or maybe for 1 time - cheap. The quality of the attachments again ... Maybe something breaks quickly ... Package contents ... I have not chosen at all, even approximately, while I am reading

Go try the little one in action. I'm trying to upload a photo of my PG so that you can estimate the dimensions. Maybe somewhere else you can find in the remains ...

Big yours

Nooo, it's just very compact, it's flat and not tall, maybe I'm a photographer like that?

I just liked it. Without a steam cleaner, I would first wash everything with a rag, rinse it in a basin with water and window cleaner, and wipe the window with paper. Otherwise, nothing can take this dirt. It sticks so hard to the windows. Then I would just splash the product and rub it with a microfiber cloth. How much more effort must be made for this. I usually have glass panes in several runs of soap. In parts. A steam train is faster and less labor-intensive. Today I swept the floor on the balcony and washed it. The beauty! You can now live on it. In the summer, I clean the balcony along with the room. It's always clean there. But after winter, wash it. This has always been a problem.

[Song*]

Song*, I see you, too, with a little Karcher 1020. but he is also big, but I'm interested in small

[martula]

martula, there is a photo?

Here: 🔗 there is even a video showing how it works. Probably good! I have a manual steam cleaner, bye. I would love to buy this one. But not yet quite ripe for purchase.

Girls .. here the question is ripe ... does anyone wash the parquet floor like clathronic 3280, boman and the like? How does parquet "draw out" steam? And that I here advertised my miracle units, but an important requirement is an cleaning parquet..

No parquet, parquet can only be a steam cleaner ...

Girls, and I have such a question, I understand that it is stupid, but still. Have any of you, by any chance, tried to wash the chandeliers with a steam cleaner? And then I have so many different fintiflyushki, pebbles and other decorations on them (I don’t even know what they are called) when I bought I looked to make it beautiful, but I didn’t even think about how to wash this beauty, and now
In the kitchen and in the dining room, it’s as easy as shelling pears, and there’s no hassle, I twisted the plafonds into the dishwasher, and in other rooms, in order to wash it, you just need to remove the whole chandeliers.
And yet, if you blow off the dust from the chandeliers with a steam gun, then it will all fly to the ceiling ??? Did I understand correctly ???

I would not wash on the ceiling with a steam cleaner, everything around will be dirty, and it can still whirl ...

I would not wash the steam locks on the ceiling, everything around will be dirty, and it can still whirl ...

Thank you, I thought so, but there was hope, and suddenly someone was washing ...

And when I bought chandeliers, I thought first of all about how to wash it ... .. I hated washing chandeliers since childhood ... precisely because of such pebbles and tinkers ...

I have Polish chandeliers ... one of them is kind of "forged" or something ... yesterday I literally washed it with a steam cleaner (because the water still remained, and it was a pity to "bleed off" the steam anyway, I would have had to wash it on Friday) ... so everything is just super ... .. the ceilings are clean ...
I went to take a picture of the chandelier .. I'll show you ..

well, here's my chandelier .. photo from the phone .. litter ..

I also bought myself a Karcher 1020, + a set of little round colored nozzles + a nozzle for windows. in general, everything has been laundered, from stretch ceilings to carpets and a sofa! just a miracle, and how it washes the windows, stunned! I advise everyone, next month I will buy all the other nozzles!

I want to say thank you to everyone for your help in choosing a steam engine, then I came to your forum. I bought myself Odysseus 802. The thing is irreplaceable, and it will strip things off and clean the house. At first my sister let go of trying Redmont, but it looks like a jug and it's hard to hold it in your hands for a long time, and my Odysseus is light, my hands don't get tired. A wonderful thing. I tried to wash the floors with it. I never thought that old parquet could be so clean. Not one brush with the help of male power did not wash it off. Well, now I don't use an iron at all, I steam all things only with it. And he completely removed the smell from the cat, just walk them around the tray and around. Now I advise all friends.

I never thought that old parquet could be so clean. Not one brush with the help of male power did not wash it off.

And above the girls wrote that the parquet should not be washed!

Girls, advise which jug to take - Odysseus 402 or Clathronic 2930?

I have 402 - weak noses ... after buying clathrosh 3280, I already thought, but will I ever use a jug now ... .. well, if only to go to the garden to clean (I'm sorry for the clathrosh)

And above the girls wrote that the parquet should not be washed!

If the parquet is not varnished, then what will it be? One time you can
