It comes with good accessories that make your job easier. I always wanted to try a steam cleaner so that I can work without the harmful chemicals, but was not sure if it will be any effective. It can only mean two things, it is working well for sure and i am encouraged to clean more often because it works like a charms. It has been 3 months now and my place has been clean. I bought this handheld steam cleaner from one of the gift cards we got for my wedding. True Good if you want to give steam cleaning a try It isn't made for suction it is only made to steam There is nothing wrong with the machine other than I wish it was lighter weight. the only reason for a four instead of a five is that after awhile it gets heavy and I have to give it a rest. It took me less than half the time I would have used with a bucket and rags because there is no process of soapy scrubbing followed by clear rinsing. I held the steamer in one hand and a soft dry rag in the other. The shed is 8圆 and only had to refill once. ( just be careful not to spray the birds) My dogs crate gets taken apart and steamed on the patio to keep it like new and it removes the grease from my oven glass. there is an attachment for every purpose and it even de gunks my birds cages a whole lot quicker than sprays that were made for that job. I owned a scuncii steamers some time ago but it didn't get as hot as this one and it ran out of steam faster. The wire attachment brush makes quick work of my charcoal grill and the cloth head keeps upholstery fresh. the walls of the shower and the soap dishes are molded plastic which scratches easily so no cleansers! a few short blasts and a soft rag keep it clean. plug in the bissell and give the door a few shots followed by the squeegee and it gleams. My shower stall is great but gets mildewy really fast and there is a door instead of a curtain. I live in a basement apartment talk about dusty musty sheesh. It helps break nuts away from screws also. You can use it anywhere that you can use steam. Haven't had to do anything yet so yes its very easy to maintain its as small as a small kettle and very light and this nozzle gets you into tight places. It also comes with accessories like an extension hose, scraper and squeegee that are also very helpful. Its very light and maneuverable unlike those units at work which gives it added value even though it doesn't have the power or water capacity of those units. I can blast that hard to reach corner behind my washer, dryer and laundry sink to loosen up debris before I run a mop back there. I've used it to clean the grill, It cleans my camper up nicely, My shutters have become easy to clean. I've used it on clothes, I've used it to remove stickers, I've used it to spot clean carpet.

Its low cost made me think that it wouldn't produce hot enough steam or power to do the tough tasks. I was very skeptical about this Bissell when I bought it for home use. At work I have expensive commercial steamers and I love the versatility of steam cleaners so I decided to buy on for home.
