The McCulloh MC 1275 steamer was a big disappointment. It did not appear to be the same steamer advertised, & after the first initial use where it steamed nicely (no pressure just steam), I could not get this thing to steam again to save my life. All it did was squirt water and leak all over my floor. This does not appear very "heavy duty" either, as pretty much the entire machine is plastic. I thought I would give it a try though, but what a big mistake. I really expected something better than this for $130!I am going to look into getting one of the expensive ones that is around $500 in the hopes that it will perform better than this thing. I needed it to steam my sofa and loveseat, but this doesn't do much other than get it wet. My advice is to save your money.
