Great product despite the negative reviews .
The steam brush have to be use at direct contact with the surface and have to be use slowly, it is not an Hoover.
You need to consider the heat dispersion!
This two key point (Distance and speed ) are fundamental for the best results otherwise you will be disappointed.
Amazing product! Really worked magic on my carpet !!! Highly recommended!!
Excellent for all round house my wife will only use this for ironing love’s it floor windows does it all 1st one we had was twice this price 20 years ago was over 400 pounds
This is my third Polti machine in 20 years. I first had the smaller green one, then the larger blue one. They didn’t last and I wanted to know how much the current would cost me beyond the 2-year guarantee period, so I also purchased an extended warranty to cover me for 5 or 7 year (with Domestic and General). I can’t remember now but that was about 8 years ago, I’ve not had any issues with this machine except a couple of attachments gave up the ghost, but replaced under that warranty.
This machine is really powerful. Much more powerful than the others and also than the Karcher I bought a couple of years ago. I use all the attachments. I also have the iron attachment which gives great results. So much better than a stand alone steam iron, and no need to buy a steam generator
From ironing to blasting dust out from behind radiators to sparkling disinfected floors without chemicals. (that said, I do use it with cleaning products for some things). Watch the cheesy video on youtube for ideas.
I’d recommend buying extra sockettes, but using different (thicker) cloths for the floor attachment.
This is a great machine gets into every nook and cranny makes everything clean and fresh
I am very satisfied with the Polti Vaporetto steam cleaner. The steam is very powerful. I have got good results cleaning my cream carpet, kitchen units, floor and wall tiles. Have not tried the window cleaner as yet. I got the pressing iron and what a big difference it makes to my ironing. I had a previous model which lasted about 4 years but this is much better.
hard work but freshens the house up would most likely get a wash vac in future
Having owned the model that this replaced, expectations were high and I am not disappointed. This is a great machine that actually does all those tasks you see cheaper models being advertised as doing. It generates a good head fo steam and maintains pressure long enough to clean a floor or blast the dirt from inaccessible nooks and crannies. Also does a good job of ‘dusting’ houseplants!
The price probably means this is aimed at a more professional market but I beleive it is worth paying the extra for something that works.
A great purchase. Very pleased with it – love it.
Excellent, purchased to replace a Polti which we had for over 12 years, this one seems much better, tools fit better, easy to put together. The downside; the bag supplied to hold the tools is very poor, just like a piece of cloth folded in half, and still the same problem of dial too close to steam adjuster. Quality does feel a bit inferior. However, I am very pleased with my purchase, and would recommend it at this price.
I’m the owner of 2 polti 4 bar vaparetto 1500, and I thought they were amazing UNTILL this arrived!!! Oh my goodness I can’t believe the power it has, didn’t realise what ‘blast dusting’ was till today, my previous 2 machines are still in full working order being 20+ years old I think but I’ve been secretly pining for this model because it looks so modern in comparison.
I have all the accessories from my old machines including (3) irons so I will definitely be making full use of them all, but after spending a good few hours with it this afternoon I can’t fault it !
I knew I’d made the right decision as soon as I saw the quality of the machine.
I have owned a karcher sc3 in the past I hated it, and it looks like a toy compared to this
Don’t waste your time with the cheaper model floor mops, if you can afford it get one of these. they have masses of steam which is powerful. You also have the option to purchase a number of additional accessories you need for the job.
Delighted with this. Delivery was so quick. A great item. Thanks.
Used polti steam cleaners for 26years this one is nearly as good
Very pleased with this steamer and iron vast amounts of steam and enough to iron all clothes in one go without running out of water.Also extremely well made product.
This was our second Polti Eco pro machine find it works well for us
have used ploti steam cleaners for years could not be without one. the fact that i do not have to use chemical cleaners is a big bonus.
Very good tiles and upholstery look better than imagined will try oven tomorrow and have a go on Windows easy to fill and not heavy lasts a good 40 mins . No complaints do fa
Where has this been all my life!! Very easy to set up and use.
We bought this Polti a couple of years ago, having had various other makes for years. We like the way it steam cleans carpets, floors and curtains. They even smell fresh afterwards. However the other makes of cleaner we’ve used never lasted long so I’ve waited a good while to write this review. Having just used it again today I can highly recommend Polti. We had new carpets about three years ago and they still look brand new thanks to this cleaner. Its easy to use and, though a bit heavy to carry when full, it is easy to move around on its wheels.
I’d recommend buying the Calstop at the same time as it does prevent lime scale build up. All in all if you’re thinking of getting a steam cleaner, I’d recommend this one as the quality is superb.
Great steamer, powerful hot steam, cleans and refreshes carpets. I bought this because I felt that the steam from the Vax I purchased was not hot enough. I suffer from chronic sinusitis and rhinitis so wanted to make sure that steaming would get rid of dust mites.
I bought this steamer a couple of months ago. I had owned a similar polti steamer before which I was happy with but after many years of use it gave up. Since then I have tried about three different steamers and none of them have lived up to the polti but they were much cheaper. This steamer is very powerful and great for getting into nooks and crannys and removing stubborn dirt. I used it on my kitchen tiles which have little crevices in them where the dirt collects. I use the nozzle to get the dirt out. I find if I use the floor cleaner attachment it doesn’t do as thorough a job but it does do a good surface clean. This steamer is great for cleaning the bathroom and kitchen presses and lots of areas around the house. I have used it on my laminate floors but find it can leave some streaks if you don’t,get to dry it very quickly and also it can be quite wet. I find the less powerful floor steamer probably does a better job. All in all I’m very happy with this steamer and don’t think you could be disappointed with the quality. It was a bit more expensive than I wanted to pay but I think it is worth it.
This is our third Polti Vasporetto in about 20 years so they don’t last forever. Saying that we would not be without it especially when the iron is fitted. It is the best ironing machine that you can get! Very handy tool that is used over and over again.
This is my second Polti Vaporetto. The old one hasn’t died but I have a flat that I transported my Polti backwards and forwards to and it made sense to have one in each place. You think your shower is clean until you Polti It! If you clean it the Polti can do it better! Blast dust or of those inaccessible places. Clean kitchen doors, oven… The list goes on and on……
Overall I like it, but for the bathroom I still need to use some chemicals to remove calc.
I purchased this steam cleaner a few months ago & thought it was about time I wrote a review.
My reason for purchasing a Polti over other brands was that I’d owned one previously (about 20 years ago). The performance was outstanding and it lasted around 8 years even with almost daily use. Unfortunately when it broke I didn’t have the funds to replace it so bought a cheaper hand held model which quite honestly was a waste of time. I’ve dabbled for a few years with steam mops but really missed the flexibility of a cylinder steamer.
So, after Christmas I decided to treat myself (and my house!) to a new steamer. I did a lot of research into the different makes & models and pretty quickly decided it must be a Polti and the Eco Pro had consistently good reviews so decided to take a chance with this one.
And I’m so glad I did!
The build quality is excellent, very sturdy. It has a large tank which operates for around 40 mins constant steam (enough for me to clean my kitchen floors, work surfaces, cupboard doors, cooker, windows & patio doors).
The attachments are very easy to slot together – it’s supplied with plenty of attachments for every cleaning job.
Operating the cleaner is easy. Fill the tank using the funnel supplied. Plug in & turn on the power… It takes about 5-10 mins to heat up a full tank. Decide which attachment you need, lift the attachment cover on the machine & slot in.
I also purchased the Polit iron accessory & easily breeze through a good couple of hours ironing without needing to refill the tank.
When the water has run out, you get an audible buzz. Turn the machine off & wait until the safety device releases the screw top before refilling. Cool down usually takes around 10-15 mins (enough time to have a quick cup of tea before continuing your cleaning!).
I find it fantastic for windows, bathroom tiles, bath, toilet, hard floors, mattresses, upholstery, cooker, cupboards… Basically I steam clean anything that can be cleaned!
One of the best things about steam cleaning is not having to use harmful chemicals – especially good if you have pets or children (or like me, both).
I had one for 15 years,and when it died tried to live without it-big mistake.
Using It is like using professional cleaners, money well spent.
This machine is absolutely first class for stripping wallpaper. I have been using it this week and the old wallpaper just falls off like snow, even though it has been painted over with waterproof vinyl paint.
I bought this to replace my Polti which stopped working yesterday after 16 years of regular use. I used it for floor and carpet cleaning, window cleaning, general cleaning of furniture, oven etc., and stripping wallpaper. I received my new Polti this morning and have tried it out and it performs exactly the same as my old one so if this new one lasts as long I will be very pleased. Some people might think that it is expensive but it is well worth the price for something that, for me, ultimately cost approximately 15 pa plus electricity usage. When my old Polti stopped working yesterday my immediate reaction was to buy a new one and I am glad that I have.
UPDATE. I have downrated from 5 stars to 1 star because after using a full tank I discovered that the “water out light” was not working and there was a slight burning smell. Amazon arranged a next day collection and replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement is clearly not new. It was clear from the packaging, in comparison to the one I received yesterday, that the machine and accessories were not properly packaged. They were just stuffed into the box. The body of the machine has scuff marks and scratches. Amazon cannot replace a replacement so they are refunding and arranging collection of the replacement. I can accept that the first machine was faulty but I am unhappy that Amazon tried to replace it with a used one, hence the downrate. I shall have to look elsewhere. Not good Amazon! UPDATE 2 After the problems with buying this product through Amazon I bought it elsewhere. The steamer is really very good and works as well as my previous Polti 2400. Glad that I decided to go ahead and buy it elsewhere. I also discovered that a buzzer sounds when the tank is empty.
Really powerful steamer. Very pleased with it. No cons that I can think of.
Very safety conscious, which is good. The only thing I am finding is the hose attachment tends to come a bit loose which causes the steam to cut of, so I just have to give it a little wriggle, and we are of again. Cleans well, nice amount of steam, glides along well, easy instructions, bag to keep your tools together, you do not have to wait to long for the pressure to reach the right temperature. Highly recommended.
I have used this on our wooden floors and the dirt it removes compared to normal washing is incredible,we have 2 dogs so it has to be cleaned very regularly,would recommend it highly
his is so great,with 4 cats in the house you need something that will get rid of the fleas or eggs that might be in the rugs and it is far more efective than any spray the vet can sell you
Excellent product not cheap, but well worth the extra money you pay over other brands on the market.
Excellent machine. Feels solid and the amount of steam it generates is amazing. Cuts through any cleaning job, even the grout between tiles.
Love this steamer, I’ve waited until I’ve used this on different applications and it has performed brilliantly.
Really good at tackling ingrained dirt in lino flooring, carpets etc. Just takes a little while to warm up when it needs refilling. Definitley recommend it.
This is my first steam cleaner. I thought i would get a more robust one as I have several properties i look after. I had to watch Dvd which accompanies this appliance a couple of times before getting used to the process of steam cleaning but with a bit of practice i soon got into swing. Ive used it to clean everything from rugs, carpets, behind radiators, kitchen cupboards, upvc double glazing, ovens all without the aid of chemicals. Features such as pressure gauge are useful to knowing when you have maximum pressure to remove most stubborn dirt marks.
I have had a Polti before.. great steamers, so am extremely happy with this new one.. really does do a good job all over the house, and with pets around, no little bugs can hide!
Does a good job but we could have done with a more comprehensive set of instructions. At least you know that work surfaces, floors, showers, tiles, etc. are all sterile so that meets our prime objective.
I bought the item at a discounted rate. Both the DVD & the Instruction Manual were missing. I cannot use it until I can have either of the 2 items available. Please advise.
It enabled me to clean areas in my bathroom and kitchen that I was finding difficult to clean.
Also it is non abrasive.
If I have one critasism perhaps the power lead could be longer to avoid using extension cables and a supply of cleaning cloths would be useful.
Did a lot of research before opting for this one. So far seems to be doing a good job although I have not mastered the art of carpet cleaning. However, on tiled floors it is quick and brilliant.
I bought this thinking it would make housework much easier. I am pleased with the product, having never used a steam cleaner before. From the point of view of a complete novice, I have taken a bit of time to get used to it. It is not the ‘miracle’ product I had hoped it would be – cleaning is cleaning and can still be hard work however you look at. But what I would say is, with time, you get to know how to get the best out of the product. I struggled using it to clean my floors, which is what I bought it for. I have large areas of light coloured granite flooring to clean and hoped this would make things easier. I was left with watermarked granite and was pretty disappointed. However, I persevered and have realised that I need to steam small sections, say 1m squared at a time, then flip the cloth over and dry the area immediately. The results are fantastic, sparkling floors. The little nylon brush brought the white grout up between the floor tiles fantastically, but it takes time and patience. I also used another nylon brush for the grotty bit under the toilet rims and this was great – you can buy different coloured brushes to avoid cross contamination – great! I have curved glass shower cabinets, so after experimenting, I found the small brush with a sockette worked best – I put a spot of washing up liquid on the sockette as I felt it needed something more than steam alone – after this I rinsed the glass with hot water from the shower and dried it – I was really pleased with the result. I used this same technique on the shower tray and the bath, and they are gleaming like never before. I find the window accessory quite useless – instead, I just steam the mirrors and glass and dry them for great results. The same goes for kitchen cupboard doors, windowsills etc. Like most new appliances, you tend to have a bundle of accessories that you never use and I think this is going to be the case for me. But the ones I do use, I will use with pleasure. The accompanying dvd gives you some idea of how to get started with the machine, but the immaculate lady in full make up, steam cleaning the already clean bath is just annoying :-)! Finally, I must give full praise to Polti for their customer service in dealing with an issue I had with one of the accessories – they replaced it immediately, no questions asked.
Very powerful, leaves the tiled floors shiny, unlike my steam mop which left them clean but dull. The concentrator tool blasts the dirt from the grout, and has removed some stains from the carpet. Cleans floors, tiles, windows, shower screens, surfaces, cupboard doors, awkward nooks and crannies, I could go on but I think you’ve got the drift. It’s almost fun (well it’s still cleaning, so only almost).
Had a slight problem with the first hose, but Polti customer services were great and replaced it immediately.
Makes light work of the cleaning, I only wish I’d got one years ago!
very easy to order, safe ,excellent review , lovely care,very efficient,nicely packaged ,very satisafctory to read the specification in my own time while I am at home drinking my coffee
Great steam cleaner, well worth the money, cuts cleaning time. With a household that contains of 4 large waggy tail dogs, who love to dig in the back garden soil and then wag their tails all around the kitchen I need something that will clean and disinfect quickly, and this machine is wonderful. Its a pleasure to use and also clears any sinus problems i have whilst cleaning. What more can anyone want.
I have used steam cleaners for several years now and as soon as my last one broke had no hesitation about ordering another. I always stick to the Polti range though probably because I tend to use it most days rarely get more than 3 years service from each. I also find if you use the iron attachment it tends to shorten the life of the cleaner. All that aside it make light work of most cleaning jobs. I have black granite worktops in the kitchen and they come up like brand spanking gleaming new after a quick steam clean and a wipe with an e-cloth. The Eco Pro 3000 comes with a lot of attachments and is very powerful. I quickly blows away all the dust from behind radiators and I always feel the kitchen and bathroom are so much cleaner and fresher than when I use conventional cleaning methods (sprays etc).
