McCulloch MC1235 1300-Watt Handheld Steam Cleaner

Handheld steam cleaning in the pals of your, well hands obviously, the McCulloch offers just that, a handheld steam blower that could just possibly be the one to melt away all that muck under your counter. The price was quite a whopper for its size, but I figured it would pay for itself after I began using it, so here is what I think about the McCulloch MC1235 1300-Watt Handheld Steam Cleaner.

Using this is very simple; it’s like a gun, with a power cable, pretty much like operating a power tool only without needing to be a masculine man to handle it. The design is pretty much 100% focused on getting the job done, which is spitting out steam at whatever you wish.

Regular steam mops or closed tank steam cleaners will have you filling their tank once it’s empty, and you have to stop whatever it is you are doing during refills and wait for the unit to cool, not with this one, the tank has a little cap on the top, open and pour regular old tap water in it and continue on with your steaming, or if you are those extremely resourceful and creative types, why not add a little extension to it, like a water bottle or even a garden hose, if I could do that I would see myself with infinite steam cleaning capabilities (but that would definitely breach your warranty).

Amazon says this McCulloch MC1235 1300-Watt Handheld Steam Cleaner is powered by 1300 watts, well I don’t know how strong that is but in general it definitely melts the gunk that builds up on my stove right off, so I guess it’s some pretty good steaming power, and assuming that wattage adds to how fast it boils the water, then I guess 1300 watts is really something to be able to heat up the water in just 30 seconds.

After playing around with the steamer itself I decided to take a look at the accessories that it came with; detail brush, floor brush, squeegee and a few more, I used to squeegee on my window and mirrors since I haven’t given them a good cleaning in a while, and it works great, with only a single swipe I got the finger prints off the mirror.
However the unit does make a racket, it’s pretty loud, but nothing that would cause me to enjoy using it, the switches on the other hand are of poor quality, it’s not that they are bad or faulty, but rather they don’t have a good lock to them, so you might find yourself keeping your fingers on the switch the whole time just to make sure it’s at maximum.

Aside the problem mentioned above, the tank cap is rather flimsy feeling, not anything to worry about, but one thing to worry about would be that the steamer heats up after a few minutes, and its not advised to continue using it if you feel that it’s a little hotter than usual.

But for its worth this little handheld wonder is definitely something that will keep you finding an excuse to use it, and I am certain that you, just like me will find numerous uses for this McCulloch MC1235 1300-Watt Handheld Steam Cleaner.
