Steam cleaner (steam generator)

[Fotina]

Fotina, well, that's right, Light, a kettle - this is for quite, very little things. I drove mine all night yesterday, the steam jet is powerful enough, it doesn't spit with water, the steam goes on continuously for a long time, but it washes away ... well, it washes only what I myself could wash with a melamine sponge, no more
By the way, tell us how you can clean things? I read reviews that people clean their down jackets, tried the steamer through the nozzle, well, it got a little moistened, but not a fig was cleaned ..

and I'm not very good with melamine sponges. Once upon a time I bought successful ones, they wiped everything well for me. And for the last few years, whatever I buy, they are completely disposable, crumble, and work poorly.

I don't believe in cleaning things. There is nothing to try hard. But then I took out my husband's light suit - it was after dry cleaning, but out of the closet over the winter - all wrinkled, especially the sleeves. I will try to steam.
used to float with a vertical iron from the passage on the Gostinka. I have had it for a long time, since the mid-90s, when the red ones were still sold (now the white ones, it seems). Surprisingly, it got accustomed, just for coat-suits. I will compare.

How to clean things, down jackets and stains on furniture is described in great detail in this topic at the beginning. The main rule, as I remember and apply, is that steam is a rag, slowly and sadly, in small pieces. On the down jacket, the oil steam stain was removed with the same makar. And do not forget to rinse the rag from the dirt. Likewise, stains on furniture, on clothes that cannot be washed or is not desirable. I also clean my husband's light suit.

I will test it on kitchen facades.

Facades of what material? If you are not very sure about heat resistance, then be careful. I spoiled mine a little, I have veneer, so there are stripes-scratches. And on the painted refrigerator, too, traces of the brush remained, then I had to rub it with polish. Only a brush with a cloth can be cleaned. Yes! more .... if you clean the equipment with buttons, then only with dispersed steam, so as not to drive excess moisture into the contacts.

Radish Ozone postponed delivery until tomorrow. And I was already in anticipation

Galina, MDF facades - half painted, half laminated. I don't know how it happened))) the kitchen is already 10 years old, you see, at 1 Furniture Factory it was so accepted then)))
I'll try to be careful

[Fotina]

Fotina, I only plastic and my mdf. The film in the nursery almost ruined it. It's too hot.

Greetings to all!
When I thought about the slow cooker I came across your forum, I honestly admit, your feedback helped a lot)) Now my baby Philips is the most beloved
But we only dream about peace, and now I have another headache - I choose a steam cleaner
I rush between Karcher SC 4, bribed by the manufacturer Germany, and Kitfort KT-903, the steam pressure is still higher than that of Karcher .... Alarming 100% positive reviews from the latter
So I have been thinking that day, and I just can't make up my mind ..."Slept" more than one night with these thoughts, the decision does not come
I confess, I did not master the whole topic, I started reading from page 170 somewhere ... Maybe someone has these models? How are they doing? about karcher ambiguous reviews, then they do not clean, then water leaks after a break ... well, etc.
I would be grateful for your help

now I have a different headache - I choose

... or else there will be We all came, some for a slow cooker, who (personally me) for recipes for this ...

And from here I dragged recipes and read Admin's tips on using HP and baking bread.
Last year the blender burned out, the antediluvian multicooker broke down: crazy: and now a year has been going on and bought 2 racks in the kitchen. In general, I am having fun

[Alenka212]

Alenka212, Mirabel, oh, girls, I can smell it too)))) But I really want an assistant
And I dabble in recipes from here .... thanks to everyone who lays out the technique, I love))))

Please tell me, is the Karcher SC 2 model worse than the famous Karcher SC 1.020? It's just convenient for me to buy on Ozone, so a bunch of discounts, points and bonuses from the Savings Bank will get quite cheap in the end, there are no other models on Ozone.

[Suliko]

Suliko, I think it's the same, only the 2015 model)))

headache - I choose a steam cleaner

I have Kit 904. I'm happy.

[Vita]

Vita, aha understandable! I ran to order! There are of course premium models, the same model SC 2, there are more nozzles and is made in white ... but it is not on ozone ... ehhh

[Suliko]

Suliko, the principle of operation is unlikely to change from color. And you can buy attachments.

A) the facades are still completely glued, in one place they swelled, somehow straightened, but noticeably.
B) my whale whistled. Run out of water? This is not in the instructions. But I didn't have time to steam up so much, about 20 minutes. Or overheated? Disconnected, spun, began to top up water - it spits, it's hot. I'm waiting.
somehow I got upset. Also, the brush is round some kind of disposable. I'm afraid it won't be enough for the whole bathroom / kitchen.
You need to call, order additional sets of 5 pieces at once.

add. Whistle - the water is over. I found out empirically. Why not indicate this in the instructions?

The worktop, stove and tiles above the stove were cleaned well. With the stove, I use washcloths / scrapers longer.

[Fotina]

Fotina, I wash without a brush. More precisely a brush in the other hand. Tooth for example, and blow with a nose. When the water runs out, I turn off the mains power, with the button pressed on the gun, I direct it to the toilet and leave it on the edge. While the steam is being released, I boil the kettle and refill it.
But this is rarely needed, the excitement will then pass and the tank will be enough.

A toothbrush is an idea! I also have Ikeevskaya on the suction cup, with a long handle and stiff bristles, now I'll try it!

Yeee! The suit, crumpled due to the tightness in the closet - you know, when the sleeves are in a vertical accordion and the back is almost pleated)) - steamed smartly and instantly. And the trousers too, and the inner part of them. Only the arrows are not very much on the weight, this is already on the board with an iron through gauze.

of the minuses - the steam button in the 904m Kit is not fixed, only in 908 and 909. But they have less power, in 909 there is also less pressure, and the dimensions are larger. I do not want.

ended the second 750 ml. Now my hand will rest, gaining posts on HP, and I will go to wash the mirrors in the compartment. Found in the box a bonus attachment with an elastic band.

[Fotina]

Fotina, and when steaming, the fabric is highly moistened? Or does China have an adjustable steam pressure setting (not two fixed ones)? Does it seem like a steam generator + 2 in 1 steamer?

No, I don't have 2 in 1, it's a 909 combined model. Steam is not officially regulated. Maybe by pressing force? Imagine, I did not pay attention - does it change?))
The fabric is a little damp where I drove the nozzle over it. Where it hovered at a distance of 5 centimeters - almost dry.
But steaming a thing right before putting it on won't work, especially a thin one. In principle, I did not have such a Wishlist.

Thanks for the consultation. I am interested in buying a third PG

[Alenka212]

Alenka212, Third ??? !! Ooooh tyyyy ... and what 2 do you already have and why do you need the 3rd?
I still can't buy the first one, I bought a jug, it turned out to be defective, I had to return it.

[Alenka212]

Alenka212, and what did not suit in Karcher? Almost everyone praises him, although if you look at the technical indicators, then they are average.

Girls! And there are 3 in one - and so that a steam cleaner and steamer and glass washer?

[Mirabel]

Mirabel, so a scraper is attached to the steam cleaners for cleaning the windows.

Yes, I see here there is a topic about stack washers and I thought that maybe this is also necessary in addition to the steam generator.

[Mirabel]

Mirabel, glass washer is usually bought at will from someone with a scraper has not grown together. Some steam cleaner models use detergents in the window squeegee.

And I was seduced by the fact that I don't need any chemicals for washing with a steam cleaner. Then, I’m not only my glass, but also the frames, and the mosquito, and outside the window there is something to wash around. And also, the glass does not get dirty longer.

[Ligra]

Ligra, AAAA that's how! Thank you so much!
Can you tell me which models?

[Stafa]

Stafa, Light, chemistry doesn't bother me very much. Quality and convenience are the main requirements for a steam generator.
I did not fully decide whether I want Karsher or Klatornik (they seem to be praising him too)
but in general, so often there are tempting discounts on Bestron and other manufacturers .. but it's scary to somehow buy without reviews. I have already ordered a cheap dough sheeter ... and I worry how it will grow together with her and me

[Stafa]

Stafa, so I also like that without chemistry, but for general development, so to speak, and maybe someone needs it, especially if you wash it off the street.

Mirabel, in GM (Grand Master), roofing felts 7 or 8.

Girls, I already wrote. But in order not to read everything, let the old-timers not throw slippers at me. I'll try briefly.
I have a Kromax 802 2-in-1 steamer-steam cleaner. But I managed to damage the steam gun while cleaning the carpet. A crack appeared on it, as due to the rounded triangular section, the extension cords bend during operation. Moreover, there were such reviews, but I did not take them into account, thinking that there was great force applied there. And I certainly do not possess such power. It still works, but replacing the steam gun is not cheap.
But this wave was bought by Karcher 1020. He is good for everyone, but he has only two positions of vapor pressure compared to Kromax. And most of all, I was struck by the amount of condensate that forms during breaks in work (again compared to Kromax).
Now I think that I should have bought a steam generator with a continuously variable pressure level (and this is probably only for steamers-steam generators), with a round cross-section of adapters.

Yesterday I got sick, did not heed the warning. I washed the seams on the kitchen floor using a joint cleaner. On the wall, one steam is great, but the floor is quite another. I cleaned these seams once in ten years. Just five years ago. She spat. The porcelain stoneware is gray, so let the seams be dark gray)))
And yesterday I was impatient. Filled the seams with this poison, then walked with Kit. As a result, I felt sick all evening, my head was already dizzy.
Takshta, I am one of those who learn from my mistakes.

[Fotina]

Fotina, Light, well, you should be careful, we need you alive and healthy

But I realized that some part of the grout is simply gone))) not from steam, it must have been poked out over time. Now the seams are light-dark motley. It must be overwritten again. That's how a bad head does not give rest to his hands. And it was almost imperceptible

The kitchen sofa is refreshed. I even wiped off two spots - the old ketchup, I guess. And a relatively new fat. Ferry.

But I absolutely do not have enough brushes. For furniture - because it was inconvenient to clean with a steamer. And for the carpet - because there is only a scrubber, without bristles. And the little ones - mine after the floor is almost none. And walking in a half-squat and rubbing Ikeevskaya turned out to be inconvenient, it is good only for tables-walls.

It must be overwritten

walking in a half-squat and rubbing Ikeevskaya turned out to be inconvenient

BUT after a new grout it will not be necessary to clean the seams with passion.

But I absolutely do not have enough brushes.

This is why everyone is buying Keher.Though it is more expensive. It's just that you can always buy attachments for it.

[Chamomile1]

Chamomile1, in my cromax 901m a fucking cloud of nozzles. A friend has a Karcher. Mine is more powerful. Well, about the price .. you can buy another Kromax nozzle. I generally took it to the sp. There were also replaceable nozzles. The whole set.

This is why everyone is buying Keher. Though it is more expensive. It's just that you can always buy attachments for it.

who's everyone"? In this top, at least half of them are not Karcher))

I had Boman. I was not very happy. 1. there are no replaceable nozzles, and those included in the kit very quickly became unusable. 2. almost all nozzles were put on through an extension tube, that is, it was impossible to simply put on through a short adapter, only through a long one, and this is not convenient. 3. broke on warranty, that's just fine and we took the money.
So far, I periodically read the topic and have not chosen a replacement. But, I know for sure that I will only take that model, in the bark you can buy additional nozzles and which can be used with one short tube.

I can't say anything about Kitfort's reliability yet. We'll see.
There are connecting tubes, fastenings (mmm) are strong. But you can put any attachment on the gun right away. It is warm, but not hot.
Theoretically, there are different nozzles - and wide brushes with bristles, and a brass brush, and an angle one, and for a floor with bristles. They are not in my kit. it contains only a glass scraper, a steamer, a jet, one round brush and a floor brush without bristles. And on their website you can only buy brass and small plastic brushes. And the rest - only through the service center. That is, there is a possibility, but hemorrhoids.

Virgo, I have bought three years ago sets of brushes simple and brass are still almost like this, one brass in use and two simple. As a dream, I wiped everything off with them and now I very rarely use them, since there is practically no field of activity for them. Of course it warms my soul that I have them, but it’s bad to live without them - I don’t say b.

the bristles of my brush have parted strongly. Like a skirt-year)

[Fotina]

Fotina, here I am about the same. The quality of the brushes themselves, in Boman it was none. After the first wash, the brush parted. I used it constantly through a cloth. No other way. But with a rag it is not always convenient. You need to rub, but nothing. Or you need to rub it with a simple brush. That is, puff with steam and rub with a brush with your other hand.

I want to refresh the memo again, maybe someone missed it, someone forgot it, and someone doesn't know

User tips for using steam cleaners:

How to clean upholstered furniture with a steam cleaner:

Tip 1: The nozzle should be directed at an angle to the surface, as if blowing the stain onto a cloth.

Tip 2: Stains on upholstered furniture should be treated with steam, and immediately wiped thoroughly with a microfiber cloth (it sucks up dirt like a vacuum cleaner)

Advice 3: "Clean" upholstered furniture with a steam cleaner even when it does not seem to need it !!! The "knocked down" pile and the old look disappear, a new sofa appears)) All bacteria, fungus, moth and its larvae on the treated surfaces, clothes, and upholstered furniture are destroyed.

Usage tips:
Tip 1: Stock up on rags before cleaning. More and different, since all surfaces must be wiped off. The steam kind of dissolves the dirt and if you don't wipe it off, it will dry out, but in a thinner layer.

Tip 2: Use ONLY purified water (from a filter, from an air conditioner)

Tip 3: Dust from flowers is perfectly blown off, leaves are cleaned (if you remove the attachments). Do not bring close to flowers !!!

Tip 4: You can clean the carpet, carpets. First, steam well with a steam cleaner, so that the carpet becomes slightly damp. After a few hours, go for a regular vacuum cleaner. Not an option for daily cleaning.

Advice 5: Scotch tape can be easily removed from furniture !!! Steam with a steam cleaner and dry with a cloth.

Tip 6: You can "steam" natural fur. The coat smooths out beautifully, stops smelling of dust and starts to shine like new!

Tip 7: You can steam disinfect children's toys. And also, "clean" them (see above how to clean upholstered furniture)

Tip 8: If you are cleaning the microwave - unplug it from the power supply and then let it dry (otherwise there may be a Short Circuit)

Tip 9: It is better to pre-moisten strong limescale with vinegar.

Tip 10: If you are cleaning confined spaces (microwave, bath, refrigerator), cover the gun with a rag on top.

Tip 11: If you pause during work, steam condenses in the hose, so do not forget to drive this water into the sink or onto a rag.

Advice 12: If you run out of water, but you need to continue - unplug the device from the network, release the pressure through the gun, calmly open and top up!

Tip 13: If you need to clean something (old, difficult to remove) - it is better to put on a point nozzle and "blow" and clean it at the same time !!! Much better effect!

Tip 14: When you wash the surfaces from grease with a brush (the nozzle is so round) so that it does not get clogged, dip it in dishwashing liquid (put it in a saucer separately, under no circumstances pour it into the tank !!!)

Tip 15: When cleaning fabrics or faux fur, the steam jet should be directed at an angle, using a cloth so that the dirt seems to be knocked out of the fabric, and not driven inside.

Tip 16: Is the tip broken / broken? Go to the Service Center (addresses and phone numbers in the Warranty Card) - there you can order the required steam cleaner attachment for a fee or free of charge (as you are lucky).

Stafa, Thank you! I copied and printed it myself. spring cleaning is coming soon
