Versatile product that performs well
I have been using the Black & Decker handheld steamer for several weeks around the house for various cleaning chores. In general, I have found it be be a good performer. It comes with several attachments that make it useful for a great variety of activities.

2. The bag to store attachments could be a little bigger. You really have to fight to get them all in.
3. The blue ready light is on fast HOWEVER when you start using it the full...
GREAT
Simply works greatl have only used item once so far, but did all kitchen counter and backstop easily--and it needed it.
