I was reading reviews about this fancy way of cleaning and bought it primerily for my kitchen floor.
But its worked out that i can use it for everything! cleaning turned into fun process and even mu husband who is not big fan of cleaning enjoying it now.
There are some tips i can give after I read some previous reviews:
@Floor becoming too wet. Not if you keep steam output on lower setting
@After first meter you spreading dirt around. Not if you overturn cloth. You can do it up to 4 times on one cloth.
@cloths are too expensive for what they are. You can create your own out of old towel. Just cut it to same size and off you go. For me i use 3 cloths for each room separately.
@little brush collects grease and after that it become ineffective. You dont have to buy another one. Just apply a bit of washing up liquid, press against kitchen sponge and release steam. steam will clear all grease out of brush and sponge will collect it.
Happy cleaning!!!!

By S. Docherty
I've wanted a steam cleaner for at least 10 years , My husband and I argued every time I went to buy one. So I always gave in for the sake of peace. However I have a guest staying with me that 'sprinkles', and no matter what I threw at the loo, it still smelled like a urinal. In our other bathroom there was a slight musty smell, that I suspected came from the tiles near the shower. The usual arguments ensued, I was the only one who could smell these odors. Anyway I got up in the middle of the night and ordered one. OH was out when it arrived, and I set about the bathrooms. As soon as my OH arrived home I took him to show him the cloths, the one from the shower was yucky and smelled musty , the other one smelled like stale urine. Then I showed him the 'spotless bathrooms'. No arguments whatsoever, Yay!

I have a handheld steam cleaner specifically for the cooker and have found it excellent. So when our electric floor washer fell apart (another story) we thought we'd try this well reviewed Karcher. I've had it for a couple of months now and used it several times each week.
Pros: Lightweight; manouverable; on board tool store; long hose; long flex.
Cons: Small tank - use the extra steam setting and two blasts later the amber light cuts in so you have to wait for the pressure to build; the nozzle attachment usually results in a blast of water, not steam; doesn't generate as much pressure/cleaning power as my little Vax handheld steamer; no flex storage; looks & feels cheap.
One thing to bear in mind for floor cleaning with this type of cleaner - after the first square metre you are basically pushing a dirty piece of towelling across your floor which you need to change, wash and wring out - so it's practically the same as any other cloth mop in that respect.
I bought it on offer (with Amazon) at £75 - if I'd paid full price I wouldn't have kept it due to disappointing performance/value for money.

Wow. I am exceedingly impressed with this steam cleaner.
I was a tad perturbed that it does say not to use it on the oven; according to my friends' that's probably because the steam can damage the seals on the door, but just not to direct the steam near the seals - so I've not tried this yet. But I have cleaned my kitchen, and lounge. I have a leather sofa and I was astounded at the colour of the cloth after using the karacher on it. And oh, it was wonderful at cleaning the hob, which did have a fair amount of burnt on spills - tackled those easily. And that fatty sticky residue that is a bit of a bugger to remove..the karacher with the little brush on, easily cleaned it away.
My kitchen tiles are shiney and look fab; the black mould that had grown in the grouting behind the sink and no amount of wiping had removed, was easily blasted away. It cleaned the back pvc door and glass beautifully - there isn't a window attachment with this model, so I used my own squidgy thingy afterwards to remove the condensation; and again using the small brush attachement to scrub any stubborn spots and the glass came up lovely.
I have laminate floors and they were quick and easy to clean - and dried much quicker than when I use the mop. I had hoped they would come up lovely and shiney and they haven't..but I am in rented accommodation and the laminate is quite badly scratched.
There are a few niggles; the power lead could do with being longer. A few more brush attachements would have been nice, and I found the handle of the steam gun did get quite hot after prolong bouts of steaming. The cloths supplied are great; but not fantastic quality so I imagine the cloths will fall apart after a few uses and washes.... Read more ›

Amazon Verified Purchase
I was quite dubious about spending the money on something I envisaged being used quite infrequently around the house. However, I use it at least once a week for tiled and laminate floors and often have a moment when I think of something else I could possibly clean with the attachments. On the subject of attachments, there is only one brush nozzle and one cloth included with the package which seems a bit tight on Karcher's part. You can order an accessory pack but my advice would be to wait and see how you get on with what's in the box. The cloth does get very dirty which is great in some respects as it shows how much it does clean up but it never comes clean in the wash visibly or if soaked in a bleach solution. A very good buy, well worth the money and highly recommended.

Good cleaning assistant
Thought the Karcher SC1.020 is not as powerful as I had initially hoped upon ordering, it is a great help to cleaning tricky to reach corners in bathrooms and floors. Read more
