I wanted to purchase it locally, so that I could see...

Pros: No chemicals; easy to use; fairly light
Cons: It won't clean everything

There's one thing that has bothered me lately about cleaning the way I always have, with chemicals - what about the cats? How can I ever be sure that I haven't missed a spot of scrubbing bubbles or soft scrub? How can I be sure that one of the cats won't...

I bought this to help clean a few areas of my home and to help kill germs in certain areas. I opened the box and was able to use it within just a few minutes. I would like everyone to be aware that although I think this is fantastic - so far...the areas ...

Cons: has to be refilled often, noisy, can't use it when the children are around.

I have been using steam cleaners for about 10 years. This was when I was still living in Europe. When we moved to Canada three years ago, I started looking for a steam cleaner immediately, but none to be found. Until I saw the Hot Shot.

It is...

Pros: Portable, 2 foot extension hose for hard to reach places, produces hot steam
Cons: Small water tank, no rubber edge on window attachment, can lose steam after continuous use

First of all, don't expect the Eureka Hot Shot to do what a larger residential cannister style might do. If you're just looking for a steamer that can do light duty tasks or are just curious about steam cleaning without spending more than a hundred...

Pros: no chemicals, santizes, really works, and is fun to use
Cons: takes a little time to let cool and reheat when you need to refill

Chalk it up to the fact that I often can't sleep at night, but I saw an info-mercial for the Scuzi (sp?) steam cleaner one too many times-- I was now convinced I had to own one or at least a similar model. Not wanting to pay $60 plus shipping for the ...

Pros: You can get all the things you were never able to and then some
Cons: You have to fill it with water too often

Why my husband would buy this for me is beyond me considering that he can not stand how anal I already was. You see, I am always, always cleaning, disinfecting, organizing and rearranging everything. I have four children, ages ranging from one month...

Pros: Does a good job of cleaning in restricted areas. No chemicals needed.
Cons: Limited tank for small jobs only.

Great for cleaning in corners, cracks, and tight places. I can throw away the old tooth brush I use to use. This Steam cleaner does a nice job of blasting the dirt out. I would recommend having eye protection and a dust mask when you use this tool for...

Pros: well-built, impressive action
Cons: doesn't clean well, requires frequent refills

I purchased the Eureka Hot Shot Enviro Steamer 350 as a gift for my mom, who is bed-ridden with emphysema (a lung disease). My brother, her primary care giver, must be careful of the cleaning supplies he uses around her because they may complicate her...

Pros: very powerful, well made, and it works!
Cons: a little expensive

If anyone has read my review of the Enviro Steamer floor model, then you will know I became a convert for steam vs. chemical cleaners. After owning my floor model for several months I came across an infomercial on TV for this hand-held model. It looked...

Pros: No chemicals. Lightweight. Cleans areas that are hard to get to.
Cons: Doesn't hold a lot of water. Didn't clean tub very well.

For various health reasons,I have a hard time cleaning. I had seen an infomercial for the Steam Buggy on tv,but was hesitant to buy something sight unseen. The next week,I saw an ad for the Eureka Enviro Steamer in one of our circulars and decided to try...

Pros: Solidly built - doesn't feel cheap.
Cons: Does not clean as advertised. Needs very frequent water refills.

I purchased the Eureka Hot Spot Enviro Cleaner recently, and must say, it wins one of my awards for, "Item that does the least of what it advertises to do".

Before I go for the throat, I will give Eureka credit for at least making an item that...

Pros: Cleans grease really well,kills germs,save money on spray cleaners
Cons: too frequent refills,extension hose comes off easily,a little heavy,doesn't clean a wide variety of stains

The hot shot is a great idea that just needs some fine tuning. You fill it with water, wait about 3 minutes, and depress a little "trigger" to shoot steam. It comes with an extension hose,window cleaning "squegee",an attachment for steaming clothes,an...

Pros: durable, does make a good quantity of steam quickly
Cons: Not recommended

I didn't pay for the Hot Shot Steamer. I got it somewhat "free" from Airmiles points but I would not recommend actually paying for it. It would be a waste of money.

It creates steam quickly, has a long electrical cord and is durable.
