Lots of Steam
I have never owned a steamer before, and had to go online to look up what this could even do for me after I purchased it.  (It came &#34;free&#34; with my purchase of a Soniclean vacuum cleaner.)  Since I could find not a single review anywhere on the web of this particular device, I thought I would share my experience.  I found the size and shape of it to be quite comfortable.  My 8-year-old daughter was able to use it easily (with me watching closely!)  The biggest thing about it is that when it is left on the highest setting, it produces remarkable amounts of steam!  I ran it at full blast for probably 30 minutes before it ran out of water.  That was enough to clean both sides of my queen-size mattress on one occasion, and enough to clean all the grout in a full sized shower on another occasion.  The steam button is conveniently placed on the handle, and the lock feature is wonderful (I have four small children in the house!)  The attachments are the cheap part of this steamer.  The squeegee head was slightly warped and left streaks on my window, the furniture cleaning pad has elastic that is starting to come off right out of the box, and the bristles on the scrubbing head were all permanently melted and bent after a single shower scrubbing session.  I would rather have cheap accessories that I can replace on a solidly built body that will last a long time, than the other way around, so I can live with that.  Also, the instructions are barely there, basically just a picture of the device and all the attachments, so be prepared to look things up online if you have never used a handheld steamer before.  There is a mistake on the instructions, and that is when it says it take 30 seconds for steam to form.  I timed it at 2:52.  Just under 3 minutes is a fine time frame for me, just not what they claim it is.  After trying it out all over the house, I found that my favorite use for it is washing windows.  It takes 10 seconds to squeegee the window, another 30 seconds to wipe up the puddles along the bottom, and voila, clean windows!  It was worth $50 just for that!  Just find a 50-foot extension cord before you start, so you can do the whole house in one grand rush.  I am giving this steamer three out of five stars, and adding an extra star for the Soniclean company, because they were very communicative and helpful with a service issue I had with the vacuum cleaner that I bought at the same time.
