Advantages: powerful steam jet, heats up quickly, lots of attachments, easy to use Disadvantages: no safety switch
Hoovering carpets may remove dust and hair from the pile but after years of abuse I have finally found a way of getting mine to look as good as new without having to get on my hands and knees with a bucket of soapy water. I bought a steam cleaner, to be precise, I paid £129.99 for the Karcher SC1122 Steam Cleaner from Betterware after their catalogue popped through my door at the beginning of summer.
A little bit of a doubting Thomas I was uneasy with the claims that the steam cleaner ideal for all of my home cleaning requirements but went with it as my hall and stairs carpets had turned from a pale beige into a deep brown that was frankly embarassing and unsightly.
The cleaner is very light and hold up to 1.2 litres of water ready to be converted into steam. When filled to the top it takes 9 minutes to heat up to the optimum ...
Advantages: Brilliant, deep down cleaning Disadvantages: the price
To begin with I was very fortunate as this was a prize awarded to my husband from a raffle. There is no way I would pay £350.00 for this cleaner, only due to the fact I couldn't afford it, if I was pretty well off and I knew what I know about it now then yes, it would definitely be on the top of my want list.
The unit itself is very compact, and weighs in at 12.1 kg, so pretty lightweight, because of it's small size it also makes it very easy to store. It comes in the usual karcher black and yellow, which is not very eyecatching but it is only a carpet cleaner I suppose. The unit has 7.5 metres of cable so can stretch a long way, and is particularly useful for the stairs. It comes with a floor nozzle and a hand nozzle which are both stored onboard the unit, and the hose itself is 2.5m long which again means not much stooping ...

thought, but with what?
Dad has a mate at work in the showroom, called Joe who's recently bought a new steam cleaner of his own, called a Karcher SC1122 and he was really raving about what a great job it had done on his own carpets. So, dad thought it would be a good idea to ask Joe if we could borrow his "to try it out", before we buy one of our own. On Friday of last week dad came home from work and lugged a bright yellow contraption into the house. He dumped it on the kitchen floor and announced that this was going to save us loads of money on new carpets, give us nice clean upholstery and keep mum happy into the bargain!
Dad ate his tea then got to work. He took the cleaner out of it's box, said there was no need to read the instruction booklet it came with as Joe had explained how easy it was to use, and set to work. He decided ...
