![]() ![]() ![]() To start with, 200ml of water is recommended for the Dry Steam mode, while the Wet Steam mode requires 370ml. One of two steam modes – Dry Steam and Wet Steam – is activated depending on the level of water in the tank. A small filling jug is provided for precision, but it proves tricky to hold, especially since the necessary markings on it are very close to the brim, leading to inevitable spillages. The water tank is filled from the opening at the top of the appliance. The large tool can be fitted with a squeegee attachment for cleaning windows or mirrors, a textile pad for soft furnishings, and a refresh brush for use on garments and textiles. The crevice brush and the curved nozzle are ideal for hard-to-reach areas, while the scraper tool, small round brush and metal brush can assist with stubborn stains. The rest of the accessories can be fitted onto one of the extension nozzles. These nozzles can be attached to the hose or straight onto the appliance. Meanwhile, the refresh nozzle delivers less powerful but sustained steaming and is suitable for more delicate surfaces. The deep-cleaning nozzle is great for heavily soiled areas. The generous range of attachments includes two extension nozzles through which steam is extracted from the cleaner, instead of the usual one. The new model is also a little heavier, but you’re less likely to notice it if you’re using the hose. But the gleaming white and bright red of the Steam Express have been replaced with more muted tones, with the Steamjet Handy appearing to focus on function over form (while looking a bit like something that may have been produced as a prototype). In its overall kettle-like shape, the Steamjet Handy is similar to the Steam Express. Two steam settings is handy, but it complicates filling the water tank.A good range of accessories, although the filling jug is flimsy.Simple, muted colours – but a steam cleaner isn’t designed for showing off.Hoover Steamjet Handy design and features – A tad heavier than its predecessor, but two steam modes are a definite plus In addition, the Steamjet Handy offers a more generous 5m cable and a specific refresh tool that resembles a clothes brush. The new model still packs the same pressure (in Wet Steam mode), but also has a less intense “refresh” setting, described as Dry Steam mode. The Steamjet Handy is Hoover’s follow-up to the small-but-mighty Steam Express handheld cleaner. ![]()
