tell me about your favorite brand and model of steam cleaner. handheld or mop style, it just has to clean like a mother...
TIA

Given your recent experiences with high tech equipment, do you really think you should be playing with superheated steam?

Why this obsession with cleanliness? Don't you know you must eat a peck of dirt before you die?

I could tell you our super's name,* but then you'd have to find us one just as good.

splinky, did you make any progress in your reasearch?
I'm about to get Bissell 1867-7 Steam Mop Hard-Floor Cleaner.
I'm sick and tired of cleaning white floor tiles in our master bathroom.

Any particular reason? I can't find many reviews of it - seems because Haan is realtively new as oppose to Bissell or Steamboy...

it's apparently a very popular brand in asia. i like that it has many more steam holes than the other brands and i like the idea that you can switch out the handles and make it a hand held. but mostly i'm going by my gut feel. we'll see how it goes.
