I used my steamer to clean a rental properties, kitchen cabinets that had terrible grease stains all over them. I have first tried a degreaser without any success. This steamer brought them back to a new condition without scrubbing or chemicals. I am thrilled with my steamer.
I worked with Michel to purchase a Dupray Neat Plus and absolutely love it! It is super easy to set up and use. I especially like cleaning my shower and hardwood floors with the Neat Plus and the results are amazing !

The only "Plus" is the price - the rest is a minus

I purchased this as what I thought would be an upgrade from the original Neat, which I purchased 3 years ago and needed to replace because the hose started to fray at its connection to the steamer. What’s important to me about a steamer is the amount, pressure and heat of the steam. And I liked all those things about the original Neat. It had a lot of pressure, a lot of steam, and the steam was very hot - which equates to a “dry-er” steam, because it evaporates so fast, resulting in things getting better sanitized without getting soaked. I knew what the specs were for those qualities on the original Neat, but couldn’t find them for the Neat Plus. Assuming they would be the same as the original Neat would prove to be a big mistake. The only information I could find on the difference between the two was that the 6’ hose on the Neat Plus was shorter than the original Neat (10’), the Neat Plus had a much shorter initial heat up time and that you can refill the Neat Plus while using it.
I didn’t mind so much, stopping and waiting 10 minutes for the original Neat to heat back up after refills, but I also knew that being able to refill while in use was a nice feature of only much, MUCH more expensive steam cleaners. So all other things being equal, except for the shorter hose, I went for the Neat Plus thinking I was getting a good deal, paying only 25% more for such a premium added feature.
But all other things definitely were NOT equal between the two models. It’s true that the Neat Plus will start steaming after only a couple of minutes, but if you let up off the trigger and stop using it for a couple of minutes, when you go to pull the trigger again, you have to wait - almost a minute - for the steam to come back up to full power. To make matters worse, if you kept the trigger pulled for prolonged periods of time the output would peter out. The steamer couldn't keep up with prolonged demand. Sadly ironic, as the signature feature of this model is that you never have to stop for refills. And a huge pain. With the original Neat, once it initially heated up, as long as you kept the power turned on, as soon as you’d pull its trigger you’d immediately get the full power of its steam - every time you pulled the trigger, and as long as there was water in the tank it maintained full force no matter how long you kept it pulled.
And it keeps getting worse, as even at full force, I found the amount, pressure and temperature of the steam from the Neat Plus to be wimpy, compared to that of the original Neat.
About that shorter hose on the Neat Plus that I didn’t think would be much of a sacrifice? Yeah, it most definitely is. Having to lug that little cube around behind you is a real pain, and even an outright limitation on what you can reach in high places, that the 10’ hose on the original Neat avoids.
In fact, about the only thing I can find that's the same between the two models is the very, VERY high price of the necessary consumables for the steam cleaners, that you can only purchase from Dupray. If you want poorer performance that’s harder to use and costs 25% more, and can wait only 2 minutes instead of 10 to get it, then the Neat Plus is for you.
I use this in the gym I work at and it’s amazing! It really gets rid of tough stains and dirt that the mop can’t do. Floors are super clean after I’m done using it.
