There are easy to clean and don’t need a steam cleaner but mine does a great job, you need to use a good cleaner and scrub then clean wash or steam off. After apply a protectant to keep it from staining in future. And good god are you a bull in a china shop.

I bought the Harbor Freight steam cleaner a year ago to clean tile grout in a house I bought. It really was easy to use, works well and is still working as well now as the day I bought it. The key is to only use distilled water.

Thanks for the review Rich!! Was looking at getting one of these for small engine cleaning on atv's and dirtbikes before I work on them and after. I have the chicago electric little ultrasonic cleaner and have used it tons over the last year, kids even use it. Going to upgrade to the bigger unit they now carry so I can clean bigger carbs and parts That steamer seems to put out a ton of steam, I would probably end up using that little jet wand one you used on the mats the most for what I do. Have a great 4th with family and friends and thank you for all the great content you put out!!!!

Good Morning Rich , this tool has a plethora of uses . With a little bit of simple green it will definitely help with getting those stains out. Compact unit ,not like a diesel powered full blown machine. If the price was good then its a no brainer . I would have liked it more if it had a metal tip and extensions . But at a good price it definitely has potential . Have a great 4th to you and everyone . Stay safe ,and don't burn your hands on those fireworks .

You wouldn't want to use that on a headliner anyway it would melt the foam and breakdown the glue. You will have a very clean but sagging headliner. Use a Tornador air tool and wipe\blot dry with a chamois.

Thank you for the video. Harbor freight sometimes has good stuff for not a lot of money. This tool seems ok, however, and maybe I am washing my mats wrong, but I usually take my car floor mats out a few times a year (they are rubber) and use either my hose at home or the power washer self service bay at the car wash. I would be interested though to see if this steam cleaner would work well on stains on seats and furniture both in a vehicle and at home.

I mean there's like a thousand different ways to wash your floor mats just because you do them that way doesn't mean they're wrong and I do them a different way doesn't mean they're wrong this is just the way I chose to review a product whenever you got sticky crap spilled all over the rubber floor mats and stickers and gum this takes it right off where other stuff doesn't I don't understand how you would have ever come to the conclusion or even thought that maybe you're doing something wrong based on this video
