Electrolux Enviro Multi Z380A

Good equipment.. Not a magic wand – This is a steam cleaner, can be used anywhere where steam cleaning is done - hard floors, carpets, curtains, chain saws, anywhere for clean steam cleaning. If empty fill, if dirty wipe, if filled wait until heated. Very versatile. It doesn’t suck…use vacuum before after. Show details

Another gadget to store – The hose on mine has split after not much use. Godfrey's where it was purchased said to contact Electrolux. Ok no problem. It is ok for loosening up dirt/grime such as tracks and tiles, but it blows it elsewhere, hence the same clean up. Considering the cost, storage, the time to fill, heat and lug around, it's not worth the trouble. You… Read more

definitely need - towels, rags, glass cleaner, product, squeegee, etc. as well.

Just borrowed a Karcher window cleaner vac from family - Bloody brilliant! Just soap and water scourer then vac off. No need for clean rinse or wiping. Terrific and not another useless gadget.

OK – I don't really have much use for it, other than occasionally cleaning the blind slats. I have a separate less cumbersome steam mop for the floors. It does generate a lot of steam & has good pressure. I bought it to clean vertical blind slats & it did do that ok. It is not too bad on security screens. The cloth that came with it was too light, I… Read more

use thicker terry socks over the small fitting. The fittings do come off when in use, I always have to put them back on.

OK – While this steam cleaner does a good job of cleaning it doesn't keep steam pressure for very long and you have to keep waiting for it to reheat and build up pressure again. The unit also takes a long time to heat initially when first turned on so this product makes cleaning floors and walls very time consuming and tedious. Mine has spent most of… Read more

its life sitting in the cupboard because it is much easier to just use a mop and bucket instead. pretty much a waste of money unless you have the patience to use it. After seeing other comments I can also confirm my machine is made in China. cleans floors well with steam, washable floor tool covers doesn't sustain steam for very long, takes too long to heat

Excellent – Would recommend it to anyone. It is so easy to use even my daughter (13) uses it. Cleans the floor tiles and grout so quickly. Absolutly fantastic - quick to heat up, easy to use and MADE IN ITALY used it for over 5 years

Good – a very good cleaner for all those hard to get jobs and very good on hard crusty muck that sometimes gets on you furniture or carpet. it cleans just about anything you want to clean . it blows out nice hot steam it works perfectly well. nothing yet

Bad – not recommended. does not work well. poor value. shame on you Electrolux for marketing such an ill thought out device Cleans glass so long as not too dirty mops polished floors, hopefully kills bacteria wont remove soap scum deposits in showers like a string mop, tends to leave streaks on polished floors when dry, especially where anything… Read more

such as milk has been spilled

need to vacuum normally first, as the steam cleaner has no vacuum function

will not clean out sliding door tracks well

if they are very dirty, but as another reviewer said, it does splatter the loose dirt everywhere

Cleaning glass the conventional way by mopping the glass with a detergent, then squeegeing is likely to give a better result in almost the same time

Terrible – Looked attractive when we purchased it but after the initial use I returned it as I could not see the value for money. It was very off puting to have it stop after one use and I wouldn't recommend to any one. It worked for about 2 hours, was good for that 2 hours - see bad things It worked for about 2 hours, the nozzle and hand grips were terrible and seemed to generate a lot of heat.

Good – Only had it a couple of days but performs very well and has a good selection of tools with it. It does a good job. Small and compact. Not enough information supplied. The steam guage is not in the most readable position.

Terrible – It's not this unit itself so much as just the whole concept of steam cleaning. Good idea, just not a great deal of use in practice. Save your money and stick with doing what ever it is you want to clean the old manual way. I agree with the other reviewer -- it really is just another useless gadget. Has a few tools that allow it to be used for a… Read more

variety of tasks like steam mop, glass cleaner, etc. Gotta admit, it just doesn't live up to its promise. For example, to believe the advertising about steam cleaners in general, shower screens should be sparkling and free from soap scum using this! Sorry, it aint. I still need to rever to chemicals. Too much trouble to drag around the floor to use as a mop. Not hot enough to get grease off a BBQ. Too much pressure to clean out window crevices -- it blows muck from the tracks all over the window.

Terrible – I returned mine as I wasn't satisfied and went back to scrubbing. Makes cleanign a little easier. Cumbersome to use, you still need to scrub afterwards anyway so really just another unecessary 'gadget'.
