Steam cleaner (steam generator)

[manna]

manna Yes, my window is almost deaf. One sash opens, and two meters just glass. Is the hose length enough? Actually, yes, it will be somehow inconvenient with a manual one, I didn't think it, and the capacity is small there. I will take Klatronic, I will order now Thanks for slowing me down, otherwise I would have bought myself an unnecessary toy

Mannochka, I answer, plastic skirting boards. Only I felt sorry for the round brush, I just hovered with a point nozzle and wiped it with a cloth, without a brush. And everything was laundered, surprisingly. And she didn’t crumple them, and, by the way, she cleaned the skirting boards in the kitchen near the countertop, everything is fine too .. Until I ruined nothing with a steam cleaner (pah-pah, do not jinx it)

Well, you see, my baseboards are like that. I will no longer be their ferry. Apparently, the top layer, due to exposure to steam, peeled off slightly and swelled up.

Is the hose length enough?

And what is the difference in the length of the hose, if you clean the window from the inside or outside when you find the steam generator on the windowsill? Well, maybe the difference is 10 centimeters?

I will take the Klatronic, now I will order

So ... Clathronic is both big and small. Are you talking about big?

And someone like Bomann. Is it big or small? Not tame.

Bashoi. The small one is a handmade jug.

Oh, I will take this one. It costs a little over 80 bucks. Yes, all the same, they won't let them use it for a long time. A son appears (and they have an 8-month-old daughter) and immediately grabs it (my yogurt maker has already gone there like this). Their floors are covered with carpet. They will say what they need. Should I order two at once? No, I won't.

Their floors are covered with carpet. They will say what they need.

Then they need a steam cleaner. True, pleasure is not cheap

: manna By the way, does this steam generator not include a floor brush? Actually, I don't really need it. I still have a steam mop for the H2O floor, which is enough for me. And I want to take Klatronic kitchens, tiles, etc.
And children need to steam floors, toys, blankets, pillows.

Pinky, how about a steam mop? I was actually going to buy it, until I got to our forum and read reviews about the steam cars (which I have never regretted, on the contrary!)

: manna By the way, does this steam generator not include a floor brush?

How not? In the photo there is something like ...

[Buska]

Buska I have a steam mop from the very first, I bought it about 6 years ago. Without manual steam generator. Nothing, it suits me. Linoleum, my tiles. I float carpets. True, everything is more beautiful in advertising than in nature. The steam temperature is 100 * and wet traces remain on the floor, then I wipe it with a mop from the White Cat (I already wrote somewhere). DOES NOT CLEAN up stains from carpets, do not believe the ads! And so it steams well, the pile raises, the traces of furniture are also leveled, they become fresh. Only slightly damp. It cleans the seams between the tiles poorly. More modern models have a higher steam temperature and therefore work drier.
But pillows / blankets / curtains, etc., of course, cannot be steamed with it. Therefore, I want to take Klatronic. And the kitchen, again, you can't clean the walls with it
Oh, cholera! Well, I have a honey cake in my cartoon, but I got carried away here ...

Pinky, thanks for the answer. I also choose a cartoon, I can’t decide on a model in any way, I’ll "go" to a branch about multi, it’s time to decide and become the happy owner of another assistant to myself, my beloved

Hooray! Bomann was also brought to me - tomorrow I will play, I hope)))

jinar, congratulations !!! Our regiment has arrived! May Bomann be as good for you as it is for me! And that there would be no disappointments from buying it!

[Kamusik]

Oh, girls, but I need to be comforted ...<...> I tried only the point hood-hood perfectly cleaned, but the tile-. Maybe you need a brush?

Kamusikwhy be upset? I cleaned the hood perfectly! And the tiles, you see, with limescale? So first you need it with citric acid for a couple of minutes, and only then with a steamer with a brush. Then he will clean it. And so simple steam ... no matter what pressure it has, the scale will not wash away.

[aunt Basie, Stars and Lenusi]

Ufff !!! The matter is still clear about honorary device-purchasers and honorary device-hunters, but I am definitely an honorary ninety-two pages. Italian ...

Well, I'm unlikely to mature for a big model ... But a small Klatronic, it seems, is necessary for me!

Questions for the owners of the Klatronic baby:

1. Are mirrors cleaned without problems?
2. Can't the windows be washed? It looks like you will need to buy the Kerkherovsky window cleaner separately;
3. Countertops, hobs, tiles in the bathroom - no problem?
4. Plastic skirting boards - no problem?
5. Chandeliers (with the light bulb removed and the hole closed for electricity) - it should work.

The coolest models in aunt Basie, Stars and Lenusi? Are there any arguments that I need them? It’s not so much the money that bothers me, but the place ...

It looks like you will need to buy the Kerkherovsky window cleaner separately;

Such a window washer is convenient because it collects liquid. But, in my opinion, it is convenient only if
1.the height of the windows is not too high, otherwise it will be difficult to reach the top of the window (after all, the device is without lengthening);
2. All window sashes are hinged, otherwise it is rather risky to hang out of the window in order to wash it from the outside.

I went to the market today, felt a small steam jug - an analogue of Klatronic (we have all sorts of distributors of technology there). It's good that I didn't order! Personally, it turned out to be VERY uncomfortable for me. Quite sensitive by weight, plus there will be water. If you hold it in your right hand and soar, you will have to wipe it with your left - I'm uncomfortable. I can't hold it with my left hand - after two fractures in the hand, the heavy hand can't hold it. And to soar / put / wipe with one hand seems to me a groove. Yes, and he looks kind of flimsy. In general, he was not impressed. Although he may be at work and nothing. The capacity is only small - a glass somewhere. I gave my daughter-in-law a steam brush, so she complains that she often has to top up. This kid will have the same picture.
So I'm calmly waiting for my big Clathronic tomorrow!

Well, I have both small and swing ...

Then, for glasses and mirrors, the washer is more convenient than a steam generator (since, unlike a steam generator, the washer collects the liquid himself), but for the frames themselves, and for heavily contaminated glasses (there are different flies, birds), the steam generator is not replaceable

So:
I need
steam generator Klatronic and window washer Karcher.
Essss !!!

steamer Klatronic

I suggest you still think about the steam generator. Nevertheless, its volume is small, and it is not very convenient to hold it. Just imagine how you will clean the bathroom tiles with this steam generator (especially under the ceiling), countertops, etc. For me ... so ... with a steam "vacuum cleaner" it is more convenient when it is on the floor, and even has wheels, and extension tubes

Girls, got their Clathronic today. At first I was delighted, but when I began to deal with the attachments I was upset. He was probably not properly equipped. Because I can't connect a floor brush or a window nozzle. The adapter does not fit there. All other nozzles with an oval hole, and this adapter with a round one. And it is simply impossible to connect it to anything! What should I do? I'll call the store tomorrow. Why should I return it now, back? Husband swears!

He is probably not properly staffed. Because I can't connect a floor brush or a window nozzle. The adapter does not fit there. All other nozzles with an oval hole, and this adapter with a round one. And it is simply impossible to connect it to anything! What should I do?

Here here there is a photo of a set of nozzles and adapters. Look Compare

Compared. I have a completely different shape of attachment number 12, but it fits on the pistol. But I do not have an adapter number 17 for a floor brush at all. This adapter No. 13 does not fit anything - there is a thread inside, and there is nothing to screw it on. And it, as you can see in the photo, is round, and all the others are oval.

Are round brushes not suitable for adapter # 13?
Does the window cleaner need an adapter? Can't you put it on the extension tube?
And if there is no adapter, why not ask the seller about it?

So, I figured out the adapter for the floor brush, I also found No. 12 - I did not see it right under the lid. The brushes are put on the adapter No. 13. The adapter itself cannot be put on the pistol! It is round and the pistol is oval at the exit. And in the picture on the box, the window nozzle is put on the gun along with this adapter.
Girls who have such a Clathronic or Bomann (there is the same principle) could you give your photo of how you dressed him with this ill-fated adapter! Maybe I'll see and understand visually. Although, what is there to understand if it does not fit anywhere! But the equipment, judging by the photo, is exactly what it should be. Why don't I understand?
Oh, girls, no more photos! GOT IT! I'm like in a children's designer - I tried to twist everything that is screwed. I poked all the nozzles wherever I could and figured it out. Fuuh, I can sleep peacefully now. And then she panicked right away. Tomorrow I will master.
A passing question: can the plastic surface of the washing machine be processed with it? Doesn't it burst?

I hope all be fine

Well, everything, I tried it! I spent half a day in the kitchen today. The window nozzle didn't impress me at all - lots of water. The window has to be additionally wiped. But it's still faster than scrubbing with a rag. But she steamed the stove and tiles splashed with fat with a bang. Considering that my stove is years old now, it looks like new now. The front of the washing machine was also washed wonderfully.
I haven’t managed to do anything else, there are other things to do. Here I am interested in, if you steam a sofa, pillows, etc. this is that everything will be so wet, as when washing the windows. I would not like it. In an hour I'll try to wash the linoleum in the kitchen, see it, compare it with my steam mop.
But so far I am satisfied even with what I have already tried.

The window nozzle didn't impress me at all - a lot of water. The window has to be additionally wiped.

First, the glass must be steamed (smell if necessary), and then, wiping off the nozzle for washing the windows after each wiring, wipe the water from the glass without applying steam. Then all the water from the glass will be scraped off onto the windowsill, and the glass will be completely dry and clean.

Here I am interested in, if you steam a sofa, pillows, etc. this is that, everything will be so wet, as when washing the windows. I would not like it.

I did not steam the sofa, but the pillows ... They are not wet at all. You don't water them with water, but dry steam.

[manna]

manna Thanks, understood. It’s I probably just didn’t fit into it yet. Well, what do you think about mattresses / pillows? Are they getting wet?
Wai, how careless! Didn't see the answer on the pillows
Actually, it seemed to me that the steam is not dry. When the tile floated, it splashed heavily. Maybe you don't need to bring the nozzle very close?

My pillows did not get wet at all, if only they were slightly moistened

[manna]

manna Thanks, understood. It’s I probably just didn’t fit into it yet. Well, what do you think about mattresses / pillows? Are they getting wet?

Pinky,
It seems to me that it is necessary to adapt here. Try not to keep the steam dispensing button constantly pressed, but press intermittently. In my opinion, this way there will be less moisture. We have already cleaned the mattress with a steam cleaner, not very wet.

When the tile floated, it splashed heavily. Maybe you don't need to bring the nozzle very close?

It can spray when the water in the steam generator has cooled down, when you haven't used the steam generator for some time (condensation remains in the tube), when the steam generator is overflowing with water ...

[manna]

manna Her, when the bar of soap was spitting heavily! Well, it didn’t work for me for about 5 minutes while wiping the wall. The pressure, of course, is strong. Flies well on the sides. But now I wiped the floors in the kitchen and on the veranda - CLASS! The floor remains practically dry (or dries up immediately, probably). True, I did not take the rag from the kit (it was flimsy, hefty, disposable would rather be, more thin), but adapted a piece of an old tablecloth in two layers. Wonderful! My steam mop gives much more water, I have to wipe it down. True, if I take my rag, it will be better, not so wet.
Tomorrow I'll try to steam the sofa. If that result suits me too, I will be happy, like the Cat Matroskin from Prostokvashino

[Pinky]

Pinky, I steamed sofas and pillows - everything is fine! You just don't drive too fast and there will be practically no moisture.

Girls, lovely, good! Many thanks to all for the tips and advice! I will definitely take it on board The main thing is that I will use it with pleasure and remember everyone with a kind (just kind) word! When you buy new equipment, where else to rush for advice and help, if not to you? My husband's ears will soon swell, so much he has to listen to praises addressed to our members of the forum and the forum itself And I'm just so happy!

[manna]

manna And a personal thank you to you. You were the first to support me yesterday. Oh, and I was panicked! Wow, so wait, tune in and suddenly bummer right away. I almost cried. But when I figured it out and everything went where it was necessary - the whole evening I got my husband, how awesome I am (he himself didn’t want to figure it out). Now the handles are itching to freshen up the toilet / bath, but just got tired today. Nothing, I'll play enough

Pinky, you shouldn't spit water. ferry only. if it spits water, it means insufficient heating. I had this several times - when I poured new water and tried to immediately start steam cleaning. if you wait a couple of minutes, then only steam comes out, no water.

So, girls, a question along the way. Do you need to drain the water from the steam generator every time after use and then fill it with a new one? In my instructions it is written like this. And pour water from the tap or boiled? For the iron, I specially boil water, keep it separately in a bottle (we have bad water, it tastes slightly salty). And yet, the instructions say after 15 uses somewhere to rinse the boiler from scale. What is it like? Do you need to add citric acid to boil? Since our water is bad, I'm afraid that scale forms much earlier.

I always use up the water completely, so that later the sediment does not fall on the walls of the steam generator.I fill in boiled water (for the same reason), and I also heat it up in a kettle (it is already hot, the steam generator turns it into steam faster, and the heating element of the steam generator works less, which means it will not be covered with scale longer).

[manna]

manna Thank you, I will. This is the first time I poured two cups of water in for joy. For the future, I think, you need to pour one and, if necessary, just top up.

uh huh. drain water and fill in new. I only use distilled (!). Since our water is also bad and no amount of boiling and settling can save it from lime and other crap, I don't even risk experimenting. Once I bought distilled water in a pharmacy, but there it is somewhat more expensive than in any store or gas station - in the department with all sorts of automobile gadgets.
I don’t know about scaling, because I use (see above) distilled one.

Well, today I did clean the microwave with a steam cleaner. I am delighted! How fast and convenient it is to wash the microwave with a steam cleaner! The only caveat (like the girls wrote about this) - you need to immediately wipe off the lagging fat, otherwise it sticks again when cooled. Here

Girls! Well, my head is spinning - which one to take? - clathronic, karcher or something else? With a vacuum cleaner, I read that it is inconvenient in distant corners and when high. Maybe it's true - flies separately. cutlets separately?

With a vacuum cleaner, I read that it is inconvenient in distant corners and when it is high. Maybe it's true - flies separately. cutlets separately?

I did not feel any inconvenience with the "vacuum cleaner". And there is no need to lift it high - there are extension tubes. But to hold the "kettle" in your hand, it seems to me, is just not very convenient. I think your choice depends on your expectations from the steam generator

Thanks for the answer! The teapot under no circumstances

I want, but very attracted by the carher sc 1402

Good evening!!! I want to tell you about my assistant - the Karcher SC 2.600 CB steam cleaner. I have been using it for 1.5 months already. I am very pleased that I have such a unit. Cleaning and ironing now takes less time from me.

Why this particular model? By the way, in this price category, Karcher has a competitor - Domena CS6 eco "like Stars and aunt Basichki", and also at Lenusi...

I don't know about the SC 1402, but the initial models have a very hot hose. And Domena CS6 eco, according to the owners, does not

HereBy the way, we talked about the SC 2.500. As I understand it, they are very similar. I do not really understand at all what their difference is, except for the price. Maybe you will shed light on this question

They differ only in the presence of an iron, and so the equipment and all technical characteristics are the same.

They differ only in the presence of an iron, and so the equipment and all technical characteristics are the same.

That's how interesting it is. It turns out that there are letters "C" and "CB" in the name. And the one with "CB" has an iron included. But the one with "C" is really not clear how it differs from SC 2.500 (by the way, it also has a "C" at the end)

Thank you all for the information! Good luck !!!

Enjoy your choice and further use
