I am trying to limit the use of toxins in my home. It is amazing how many pollutants are contained in conventional household cleaners. Harmful to the environment, people and pets and should be avoided. That's why I'm interested in this steam cleaner. It's light and agile. Setup was easy. The tank takes about five minutes to heat up. This gives you less than 30 minutes of cleaning time. The accessories look and feel cheap, but overall the steamer does the job.
