Attractive unit and easy enough to use, just requires far too much elbow grease to get the job done. I want something with power more like an outdoor pressure washer. These indoor units are just reconfigured garment steamers. Brio was worse. I wanted Karcher because that’s what friends rave about overseas. I knew the only US model didn’t have the equivalent psi, but I was hopeful they’d worked out a way to do it with less. Disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought this steam cleaner to offer our guests of 2 Motels the "Best of the WEST": a sanitized cabin, safe, efficient, 10% green and - Covid compliant. We already had a commercial one and were looking for a handy-one which will actually heat up quickly and will not hinder our staff for skipping this step. It takes regular water, and it is actually easy to refill. We love it, our staff loves it, and our guests are super impressed with staying true to our values: green, professional, and ahead of the curve......we already introduced 3 other business partners to this "yellow submarine".
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love this product as it is easy to navigate, light and powerful. However the down side is that it leaves a trail of water and must be mopped immediately after .

I was actually watch a video on FaceBook and a company was cleaning greasy ball bearing rings. The steam was doing an excellent job. I strained to look for any indication of the brand of steam cleaner he was using and, in the unfocused background I saw Kärcher. I did some research and ordered from you on line. Love the product!

I purchased the steamer to clean my shower glass. I was going to remodel my bathroom because I could not clean the shower stall glass. It had hard water build up. I decided to purchase the steamer as the last resort to try and clean the hard water spots. I used it and took my time and the shower door and the glass look brand new and I decided not to renovate my bathroom just new paint and decore and with the clean glass it looks 100% better.

Does what it is supposed to do

I have used a canister steam cleaner for years, so I knew what to expect. Comparable units produce lots of hot, disinfecting steam that do a great job cleaning. So I will address the Karcher's pros and cons.
The description never does say how hot the steam is. Measuring with an instant-read thermometer, the steam never registered over 175 degrees, and it jumped between that and 135. 140 is required to kill germs.
The cord is too short. The plug does not have a groove to attach it to the cord. Tool storage is OK.
The water tank is SMALL . It requires frequent filling. I have to keep a pitcher nearby and watch the refill alert. This is the biggest drawback. It's nice that i don't have to shut it off to refill, but it's annoying that it steams for less than 10 minutes. I refilled it at least 4 times just to clean the shower.
It is small and maneuverable. The attachments are adequate and attach easily.
The handle has to be squeezed continuously to produce steam. I don't mind this, but might be a problem if your grip is not good. I think it's better than having to flip a switch or push a button to turn off steam. Probably safer, too.
Makes quick work of soap scum. I didn't have any mold to test it on.
It has two steam levels.
