Hand held steam cleaner

Hi,
I had a quick look through the threads but couldn't see anything on hand held steam cleaners.
I am looking at getting a steam cleaner for cleaning UPVC windows, doors, grout, bathroom, tiles etc and wondered if anyone had any recommendations at all. I have looked at the Bissell and Vax so far but neither of them get particularly good reviews. Some say they are worse than useless and others rave about them so I am wondering if it is worth spending the £40 odd on one?
TIA

Cant help really but I would say check the length of the cable. I bought mine mainly to steam clean the toilet but the cable is stupidly short and loses pressure quickly when its unplugged.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Hi,
started using steam cleaners for the job after seeing the reviews on this site best handheld steam cleaner uk
I went for the quest one because of the number of reviews its got on amazon, havent looked back since. I know its hard to decide with mixed reviews but if it doesnt work for you just ask for a refund.:p0 -

Me too, I got mine From BM, £15 with lots of attachments. I didn't want to pay £40+ for one until I knew how much I would use it, but this does the job just fine, I'll be sticking with it.Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0 -
