Within a week it started leaking, which seems to be a general fault with the product. Bissell immediately sent a replacement filter as this seemed to be the cause of the leak. However, this did not fix the problem and the product was returned for replacement. Bissell did no more than return the original product, which leaked even more! Now in the process of returning the product for a refund. Which? need to review the Best Buy status of a product that appears to have a fundamental design fault. Pros: Cons:

It only only good on hard floors, is unusable on carpets and will not look at sofas, cooker tops, ovens and windows for which other cleaners (eg. (Karcher) were severely criticised. If so, why does Which not call such contraptions hard floor mops? And why does the comparative table not give scores for cleaning other things besides hard floors? Very poor steam cleaner, very poor Which report. Pros: Cons:

I have marble floors and whilst Which? actually states that this cleaner can be used on marble, it's extremely hard work. I also had a problem with a water leak from the cap. Rather than relying solely on Which? reviews, it's better to look at other sites with reviews to get a more accurate assessment of how good/bad something really is. Perhaps the laboratory test methods that Which? utilise, are not truly reflective of real life conditions! Pros: Cons:

Cleaning the grouted areas could be better. Noticed the steam had started to come over the top of the head and rather than directed onto the floor. Investigation revealed that the plastic tube which takes the steam to the cleaning head had become detached.Not easy to reconnect and because of the swivel head tends to repeatedly detach when in use Pros: Cons:

Not much steam and it seems steam is concentrated around a small area at bottom. The rest of filter is luke warm. Floor is left pretty wet. Dread to think how it would have left the carpet?. Rang up Ideal World TV and they have agreed to collect and refund or delivery a new one. Pros: Cons:

Thought I had done something wrong but looks as thought its a manufacturing fault. Stopped working altogether and I threw it out. Thought I would see which one Which recommended as I would like one here but now don't know which one to buy as the best buy is a Bissell! Pros: Cons:

Several months and 4 phone calls later I received the bottle. The machine falls over if it isn't propped up against something, you have to go over the floor several times to get any marks out. My neighbour tried it on her vinyl floor, mine being tiled, we both agreed it was useless. I'm very disappointed that it got such good reviews because I bought it on the strength of the previous comments. Sorry but I would say Save your money! Do not buy this. Pros: Cons:

Think it will be going straight back tomorrow. When you depress the trigger it seems to produce only a very small amount of steam. When you let go of the trigger, water seems to pour out of both the tank to filter connection and the filter to body connection. After a short while you have a very wet floor from the dripping water which you have to attempt to mop up with the microfibre head. I could replicate the cleaning method by throwing water over the floor and mopping it up. It would be just as effective - i.e. not very Pros: Cons:

After approx 6 months of use its stopped working, there is no electricity going into the unit, even after changing the fuse. Unfortunately I bought it off the net and silly me deleted all correspondence therefore unable to contact the seller grrrrr Pros: Cons:
