February 29, 2024 - 4 mins read

Ever noticed how the most common household messes (hello, red wine stain, cooking splatters and pet mishaps) are also the toughest to remove? Cleaning up big messes doesn’t have to feel like a big chore though. With a versatile steam carpet cleaner in your cupboard, you can conquer all your worst stuck-on spills and set-in stains, quickly and efficiently.

 

“These genius cleaning appliances use high-temperature steam to instantly break down and extract dirt, built-up grime – and even the most stubborn stains – from hard and soft surfaces,” says Nick Trajkovski, The Good Guys Buyer – Floorcare. “They’re also brilliant for blasting those unseen culprits – allergens and bacteria such as pollen and dust mites – that can make homes unhealthy over time.”


Ready for born-again carpets and spotless sofas? Floorcare specialist Bissell has rolled out a tougher breed of steam cleaner with their top-rated HydroSteam cleaning range, and there’s a Bissell HydroSteam hero for every stain and surface.
