Vax S84-W7-P Review

The Vax Steam Fresh Power Plus Steam Cleaner is a multifunction tool which acts as a steam mop, a hand-held cleaning appliance, and a reach wand. Therefore it's capable of performing a complete floor to ceiling clean. The accessories/attachments/extensions are numerous and include two microfibre pads, a carpet glider, a wall mount, an accessory bag, a 360 degree connector, a precision tool, a soft scrub brush, 250ml of steam detergent, a user guide and a storage bag. The tools rotate 360 degrees, allowing you to get into tight and awkward spaces.

One feature we particularly like is the steam mop's manoeuvrability. It glides smoothly into narrow spaces, around corners, and down edges. This is all down to the special angular floor head. The mop is able to clean using detergent or via steam only. It has a fast heat up time of only 20 seconds, and a full tank gives about 20 minutes of steam time. The cord is 8 metres long for longer uninterrupted use.
