VX 5000 steamer - questions...

[racelance]

I`m a car fanatic and enjoy cleaning my own when I have the free time. Ironically enough my wife loves using a steam cleaner for the floors. So needless to say I thought now would be a good time to research `em. After reviewing many decent steam cleaners I keep coming back to the VX 5000 (Steam Cleaner - Steam Cleaners - Vapor Cleaner - Commercial Steam Cleaners (http://www.steam-cleaners-direct.com/)).



I`d like to pick some people`s brains on this forum since it appears many use this steam cleaner (VX5000) - do you feel my wife would like to use this around the house as well? Cleaning the floor, grout, refig, stove & etc.? Would you recommend this product for both auto & house use?



I appreciate your time and help in advance.



Sincerely,



Lance

I am very interested too. Anybodys experience would be greate.



I have narrowed the choices down aswell. I am really liking the fact that the Desiderio can steam and vacuum at the same time. For the ones where there is no vacuum do you use a wet dry shop vac?

I`m on the same boat as you. I love working and cleaning my own vehicles. I`m not not about what steamers are good but I do know that if you want to keep the steamer working in good condition then use filter/ drinking water. It will keep you and your wife happy!

Perfect machine for what you need. Your wife should be happy.

Love my VX5000! Great in the car, outside the car. Great inside the house too.



It`s best to use distilled water, as mentioned above. If not, make sure to follow the directions that come with it, to do a "cleaning" of the boiler as recommended.
