I hesitated to purchase a steam cleaner so I read many reviews including McCulloch MC-1275 steam cleaner reviews. I decided to purchase MC-1275 and then I found SF-275. Both have very similar looks and spec. I think both models are the same one. Anyway, SF-275 was $30 cheaper than MC-1275 so I purchased this one.
I use this for cleaning my shower room. It works! but don't expect magic. It takes time to clean old stains. Steamer is really good on narrow areas (between tiles). It is extremely difficult to clean between tiles with other cleaners but steamer is really good. I tried to clean deck chairs. The chairs have some mildew stains and I didn't expect the steamer can clean it but the stains were disappeared.
The build quality is good. I just wish they improve the switch for continuous steam. It is very small. I recommend to use the distilled water only.
I recommend this steamer to any one looking for high quality steamer. |
BEST ONE OUT THERE

I could not settle for smaller ones only does a job for 5 min. Then, I did some more research on the net, and other various placces. FINALLY, I foud me this exact machine. I got it, tested, and LOVE it. This machine does ALL and more for what I expected. Light to carry around, POWERFUL to do just about any cleaning in no time. Love the design also. If you want a REAL TOP QUALITY Steam Cleaner, GO WITH THIS ONE. |

| After spending hundreds of dollars and hours upon hours of my time washing my floor with Swiffer type products I got tired of pushing around dirty water and chemicals only to have to go over the floors with towels to sop up the remaining residue. I will admit I did not have high hopes for this $99 unit, though it promises to clean throughly I thought sure, thats what they all say, well I can tell you, this one actually does what it says it will! I washed my floor with the Swiffer mop, I waited till the floor dried and went over it with this unit you can not beleive the dirt that was on the units mop head. What really impressed me was when I lifted the rug next to the exposed tile and both colors matched, which meant the floor was just as clean as tile that had not been exposed to shoes. If this works this good on ceramic tile on high traffic areas I know this will be great for all its other uses. |
Best floor cleaner yet!

I have several rooms including my kitchen that have white shiny ceramic tile floors with white grout. No matter what I used to clean the floor I had to dry it as I cleaned and most often within a day or two it looked hazy or smeary. Since using this steam vac I can go well over a week between cleanings and the floor never looked better. The steamer removes surface dirt from the grout, so if you're buying it primarily to clean grout expect to still have to use elbow grease or chemicals. It is too messy to be practical for cleaning windows and it didn't do very well cleaning soap film off the shower door. It did, however, do very well on mold. I also love it for cleaning my jewelry and the silk plants in my freshwater aquarium! No more brown spots on the silk plants. Best part of all the things I've mentioned--NO CHEMICALS to inhale or contaminate the environment. The unit is sturdy, heats up quickly and includes a lot of handy attachments.

| I bought this steamer primarily for cleaning grout and it worked!!!! It took a little bit of scrubbing along with the steam but the grout looks like new. However, my grout was only two years old, so it may or may not work as well with older grout. Overall I think this machine is a great value for the price. |
love it

| Purchased 20 year old home to renovate and clean for 84 year mom. Grease all over existing modern kitchen was so bad, I thought I would have to rip out the kitchen too. The smaller SF-250 version of this little machine ate through the grease and deep cleaned everything to like new condition. I did use a slightly abrasive sponge on the areas as I steamed, and then just wiped it dry. It also did a great job on storm window tracks, ceramic tile bathrooms and floors, toilets, faucets, and caulking, and all the other little corners I would have been scrubbing with a tooth brush. I left this one to mom and bought the SF-275 for myself - it holds more water. They both work great on wheels and buggy car grills too - and are environmentally safe. |
