Steam cleaners

A steam cleaner degreases and sanitises tiles, grout and taps without chemicals. Models differ mainly in format: a steam mop for floors, a handheld unit for small areas, a cylinder with a boiler for long sessions without refilling. Steady steam output matters more than the maximum pressure advertised. Unsealed wooden floors and delicate surfaces cannot take it.

Power, steam pressure and tank capacity are the three criteria that truly set appliances apart. Read the guide
