Karcher SC3 EasyFix Steam Cleaner Review

The Karcher SC3 EasyFix Steam Cleaner is a modern cleaning appliance which acts as both a steam mop and hand-held cleaning tool. It's capable of providing a powerful continuous steam clean without the use of harsh cleaning chemicals, or scrubbing. It works best on hard floors, tiles, hobs, exhaust hoods, and similar. It navigates easily into small gaps and tight spaces. The appliance has an in-built de-scaling cartridge which prevents limescale build up as you clean.

One feature we particularly like is the fact that there's no contact between you and dirt. When finished, the dirty cloth can be removed with no contact whatsoever. So far as cleaning goes, this steam mop kills up to 99.9% of household bacteria using continuous pressurised steam alone. The attachments include a hand nozzle with a microfibre cloth, a detail nozzle, a round brush, two extension tubes, a floor nozzle, a microfibre floor cloth and a de-scaling cartridge.
