This small-sized and surprisingly lightweight handheld steamer cleaner from Comforday arrived in a simple but branded heavy-duty cardboard box. Inside was the steamer itself, a nine-piece accessory kit and a large, well printed and easy to read User Guide. I include a scan of the User Guide at the end of my unboxing video, switch to full screen and pause to read it.
All seems well made and robust enough for long term domestic use. The 1.78 Kg, 25 x 14 x 22 cm steamer itself is made from tough but surprisingly lightweight plastic and with the screw assembly for the steam proof lid made from brass. The power cable is shorter than I would like and is hard-wired into the body of the unit. The heating element draws 1050 watts and heats the 250ml capacity tank to operational temperature very quickly, I did not time it but it cannot be much more than a minute or so. The accessories clip onto the front of the standard nozzle, which can be rotated as needed. The full list of accessories includes: Funnel, Measuring Cup, Extension Nozzle, Flexible Extension Nozzle, Brush Head, Angled Head, Fabric Tool, Fabric Tools Towel Sleeve, Window Tool. Using the accessories is pretty much self-evident. Take note that the towel sleeve fastens over the front of the fabric tool and that the window cleaning squeegee clips onto the front of the fabric tool.
To operate, first remove the filler cap and add no more than 250ml of water - the tank will actually hold 350ml, but do not be tempted to overfill it - and then replace the lid and screw it tightly shut. Annoyingly, the supplied measuring jug holds only 200ml of water, so two fills are needed. Then plug fit whichever tool you plan to use and plug the device in. The LED will light and then go off when the working temperature has been reached. You can work with the device plugged in but I found it easier to unplug it as it keeps the steam temperature very well and is sufficient for several minutes of continual use. The steam release button has a safety mechanism and to operate it first push forward and down and then pull backwards and down. This is easier to perform than describe, but you will soon pick it up. The steam jet produced is powerful and sustained and does an excellent job of cleaning hard surfaces and removing grease. I am told it works just as well on fabrics but this I have not yet tried. The tank is quite small so be sparing in your use of the steam. If you are brave you can refill it when the steam level slows but be sure to release all the residual steam first by keeping the nozzle open. I would advise leaving it for a minute or so before unscrewing the cap to refill the tank.
This is an excellent piece of kit and I was very impressed by how easy it was to use and how effective in use it was. For the current Amazon price of £35.99, it is a good buy indeed. I would have been happy to pay more had it been supplied with a storage box and some spare Fabric towels but no doubt these can be sourced separately.
