 | Reliable T730A Enviromate Steam Cleaner with CSS and 11-Piece Accessory Kit
A Very Powerful Steamer-I DO recommend it! -- 2008-11-24
I purchased a new T730A Steam Cleaner on Ebay recently, from a woman who had purchased two and found she didn't need the second. I paid only $429, so got a great deal. This is a VERY powerful cleaner...I purchased it primarily for wood floor cleaning, and for this, it takes a bit of guesswork, as the floor attachment is too rough for wood, even with one cleaning cloth attached. So, I put two on, and this made it scratch-free. I also use the steamer without an attachment, as the amount of steam it creates is just what I need. I've used this steamer in the bathroom (REALLY cleans the tub...I didn't know it was dirty 'till I hit it with the steamer), around the toilet and seat, fixtures, and so on. Great for sliding patio door tracks, amazing on bird cages, great on stainless steel appliances. I do not agree with the other reviewer in that the attachments are very good quality, as is the amount and quantity of steam, the ability to refill at will (although a tankful goes a LONG way), and so on. However, yes, the instruction manual could be much better...be sure to note that the dial has FOUR positions, not three as indicated...OFF, ON, STEAM RELEASE (when you want to shut down) and ALL THE WAY ON. Manual will tell you to put it on setting 3 to build steam, but that's actually Steam Release (tho' it never explains that setting at all!) All in all though, I really like this steamer. Compared to, let's say, a Shark Floor Steamer (JUNK IN MY OPINION...I tried one and promptly returned it) it's great. It reminds me of my expensive steam iron, but is even better as I need to let that completely cool prior to refilling. Oh yes...this is best used with filtered water such as from a fridge or a Brita filter to prevent calcium deposits, tho' it does come with cleaning solution.
Not Worth The Money -- 2007-07-09
It does NOT clean grout as well as it advertises. If you get this machine, please be careful with caulking...you can damage it quite easily. Because it damaged my caulk, I found it difficult to clean my shower with it because well, there's caulk in there and it gets dirty too!! The only thing I use it for now is to clean the outside parts of the toilet. Soap scum doesn't come off...My windows and mirrors do not get clean. The manual is a piece of trash so even if this machine could do something, you're on your own to find out how.
The plastic seems cheap, the attachments damage easily...It is a horrible feeling when you open the box and just know that you've been had. Don't waste your money!!!

Great Problem Resolution -- 2009-05-24
Product is great.
Had a problem with shipping charges, which the company read about in my Amazon review. They contacted me and resolved the problem quickly and professionally.
Will order from them when the need arises -- customer service is rare these days and I appreciate it.
Sturdy, well made, hold a lot of dirt, hold up to washing. -- 2009-05-19
That's about it....! ;->
I am assuming these are the same as the one that come with the steam cleaner, since I haven't received the extra pads yet, but since they are made by the same company and have a picture of my steam cleaner on the package, I think that is a reasonable assumption.
OK, they weren't exactly the same, but they are just as well made and the material is just as sturdy. A tab has been added at the back to step on when you remove them from the velcro.

 | Jiffy ESTEAM Hand-Held Travel Steamer (Pink)
Very Handy -- 2010-02-13
This little steamer works well on synthetic fabrics, but is very disappointing on cottons. After major steaming on cotton shirt, the finish was not smooth and crisp and most of the wrinkles were still intact. Had to resort to regular ironing. A bit disappointing since I primarily purchased steamer to get away from the labour involved in ironing cotton garments.
Works as well as the big guys -- 2010-01-23
This little steamer is a powerhouse. I got rid of my floor model steamer and now only use this one. It uses regular tap water which is nice, and I can pack it in my suitcase for traveling.

 | Yamata FP202ED Steam Dry Ironing Press New!
Simply another version of the Fenyue Yamata Press -- 2009-10-14
This is simply another version of the Feiyue Yamata Press also sold on Amazon. Search for this and you will see that it is a very unreliable product based on consumer reviews. It is sold under other names as well, probably to distance itself from the poor reviews - but it is the same product produced by the same horrible company.
