Steam cleaning tools

<p>I have a Shark Steam Mop and quite like it. Especially for my bathroom floors.</p>

<p>Recently I have been considering purchasing a steam cleaner for surfaces other than floors.
I think that Costco carries something similar to this model:
[Shark</a> / Euro-Pro Operating LLC Shark Portable Steamer](<a href=“http://www.sharkclean.com/cgi-bin/livew/site.w?location=b2c/product.w&product=SC630W&frames=no&target=main&sponsor=000001&nocache=61974]Shark”>http://www.sharkclean.com/cgi-bin/livew/site.w?location=b2c/product.w&product=SC630W&frames=no&target=main&sponsor=000001&nocache=61974)</p>

<p>Would love to hear from people who use the product. How do you like it? What are you cleaning with it?</p>

<p>Nobody? 10 char</p>

<p>I actually don’t like the steam cleaner for the floors. Just doesn’t do that good a job, IMHO. However, I really like cleaning my cooktop with it.</p>

<p>I was thinking this pertained to cleaning hand or power tools & I thought " heck! I thought /i was doing good if they were sharp & I rubbed them down with bar oil"
;)</p>

<p>dm77 - do they clean your cooktop well?</p>

<p>emeraldkity4 - no idea what you are saying…;)</p>

<p>Yes, Kelowna, the steam cleaning does a great job of getting the grease off the cooktop and out of all the nooks and crannies. EK4 is saying that she thought you meant you steam-cleaned your tools rather than just sharpening and oiling them.</p>

<p>I’m looking forward to hearing about this too. Also, anybody know if the Shark Steam Mop ok to use on wood floors?</p>

<p>The Shark model is on sale at Costco until the end of the month. From $69 to $49.
Do you use yours to clean shower doors etc???. What is the most amazing clean this tool ever did for you?
I like my steam mop on wood floors. I vacuum them first and then steam mop. No problems for me. But I absolutely LOVE it in my bathrooms. I have travertine tiles on the floors there and love the steaming action of the mop, especially near the toilet ;)</p>

<p>I’ve heard good reports about steam cleaning wood and tile floors. How did you decide what model of cleaner to purchase? Price only? I’ve gone on-line and have found models ranging from $70-80 to over $1,000. Not sure what the differences are–performance, durability, size??</p>
