My new house has hardwoods, Travertine and ceramic tile though out. When we first moved in, I had no idea how I was going to clean it all and what supplies I was going to need to do it right. My husband and I spent hours online researching the best tools to use and we decided to give the Shark Deluxe Steam Mop a try. The Shark Steam Mop cleans floors by heating plain water into a steam and...

  I borrowed this from a friend because we had some hard to clean areas we wanted to try this on.  We bought another brand steam cleaner once and returned it because it did not work.  This one worked okay.  I first tried to tackle the stove top.  With the steamer and much scrubbing, I got very little off the stove top.  It does not get the built up grease like it s...

For the longest time, I wanted a Shark Steam Mop.  The cost was the only thing that stopped me.  Then I saw an ad in the Sunday paper that had it on sale.  On top of that, it was PINK!  They make them pink for breast cancer awareness, and some portion from the cost goes to breast cancer research.  I liked that part!I bought it, got it in the house and used it right then...

It has been my experience that most irons leak. Price does not play a role in that! Well I have found a rare gem amongst all those irons. The durabrand steam iron DOES NOT LEAK! I could hardly believe it! I fill up the water tank in the iron, which you can see through it's cool blue tinted plastic window, on a daily basis. Water is in there. It just doesn't leak! This iron also has...

My husband bought Philips GC3240 Steam Iron when our old iron stopped working for no apparent reason.  I find this new Philips GC3240 Steam Iron better than my previous one . I find this Philips GC3240 Steam Iron heavier and does job better and quicker. This new Philips GC3240 Steam Iron has bigger water tank  about 300ml capacity. It is 2300W and has Ceramic Careeza Soleplate and als...

A couple months ago I got the flu, and I got it BAD!  I was so stuffed up it was difficult to breathe.  I must also add that I am pregnant so I was unable to take the usual cold medications for relief.  Finally after 3 sleepless nights my mom came to the rescue.  She bought me a Vicks Warm Steam Vaporizer.  I gave it a try and had my first good night's sleep in days...

With the birth of my first child I bought Avent bottles  and Avent steam sterilizer to sterilize the bottles. The Avent Steam Sterilizer was advised  by my health visitor. She said Avent is a trusted brand. I followed her advice. I found Avent reliable, strong and durable. The decision was not bad at all.The Avent Steam sterilizer has six bottle capacity so can wash six bottles at a t...

My 6 year old son received this as a birthday present.  Although the assembly of it took me a bit to figure out, it's a great toy.  My 10 year old son and my 2 year old son play with it as well.  It's a wonderful toy for all of them to play with together.  My oldest likes trying to create new track configurations for it, and my youngest just like standing over the tr...

The Hoover Steam Vac is one of the best machines ever made.  I use my machine to clean almost everything I own.  You can use it on hardwood floors, carpet, and ceramic tile.  This steam cleaner is very easy to use and operate.  It has a two tank system.  One tank is for the clean water and detergant.  The other tank is for the dirty water.  The clean water aut...

Let me first preface this by letting you know that I use an iron almost everyday. I am required to wear dress shirts for my place of employment. I really don't want to spend the extra money and time on dry cleaning, so I do a lot of ironing. The iron that I use is the Black and Decker Steam Advantage iron. I think that is is a pretty good iron. First off all it has an automatic safety cut o...

We have had this iron for almost a year and it has given us headache after headache.  This was a mid-priced iron, so I expected it to at least do a half way decent job of ironing my clothes.  I usually have good luck with products made by Hamilton Beach.  Not this one.  I have been burned several times by the steam that comes out when you press the steam button and also just...

I have very thick straight hair with a little but not enough natural wave.  I was thinking about getting a perm in my hair because I think curly/wavy hair looks better on me than straight hair.  I saw Caruso Professional Molecular Ion Steam Hairsetter advertised and saw some great reviews so I decided to try it before I spent the money on a perm.  I purchased it and tried it.&nbs...

 The Sunbeam Steam Master LX is a wonderful iron, that is if you can refer to  ironing as woderful. This iron does make it a more pleasurable and easier experience. There are many features that I like about this iron. The one reason I like it so much is for its steaming qualities. With my old iron I would have to press really hard and use spray starch to get wrinkles out of fabrics su...

My three year old son is a major Thomas the Train fan.  Everytime he see's a new Thomas the Train set at the store he has to have it.  When we brought the Thomas the Train - Water Tower Steam Set our son opened it immediately and wanted us to help him put the track together.  The directions that come with the set are really simple to follow.  The train tracks are blue in...

I was getting really tired of having to take time off from work to have my carpets cleaned so I decided to purchase a carpet cleaner. I did some research and really liked the Hoover Steam Vac. It allows me to clean my carpets about 3 times a year without ruining the carpet. Yes I did find out that you can clean your carpet too much! Granted it is not professional but if you keep up with it ther...

Ok so I have to admit I am a big fan of paid programming. I happen to turn on the TV a couple of Sundays ago and saw this shark steam mop. I sat down and watched it and really fell in love with the idea of being able to clean my floors without using chemicals. The price on the tv was $79.95. I thought that was a little expensive so I didn't buy it. I couldn't get it off my mind though s...

   Rarely have I been more disappointed with a product than I am with the Hoover Steam Vac Deep Cleaner.   I ordered it from Kohl's for $229.99, and was looking forward to receiving it and giving the living room carpet and furniture a good going-over.   When it arrived there was some basic assembly like attaching the handle, etc. I filled up the tank with water...
