Going to keep this review short and simple, i'm not experienced with other steaming machines & this is the FIRST steamer iv'e ever used (sheltered life? maybe) Anyhow, i'm still getting used to it and figuring out the "technique" that goes with steaming. I made a short video using it with misc information to go with it. I hope this will give you a general idea of the machine & insight, i know its not every inch of the machine's aspect covered but it'll show you the basics :) thanks for reading!

Pros
Small & compact
Easy usage
A+ Heat
A+ Steam
reasonably priced (compared to $800+ steamers)


Cons
No triangle brush attachment

Thanks Colin. I have been hesitating to buy this. Bummer there's not a triangle brush. Have you tested the glass attachment? How well does it work?
 
Anthony click the picture. Goes to photobucket


Thanks for the review very nice

Eh i'm sure they'll come out with one soon, so i'm not to worried :xyxthumbs: I have yet to test it out on glass but I can do so if you'd like. Interior / Exterior / or both?
 
I clicked the video image but when It directs me to photobucket there's nothing.
 
Seems like it puts out plenty of steam. Not having a triangle brush for carpets is a bummer but not a deal killer. I think if you spray some APC+ on the wheels first then hit them with steam and it wil clean faster. Looks like a good steamer. Thanks for the review.
 
Good review thats the only downer is no triangle brush I use mine all the time. I wonder if you can buy one from Mytee.

Both would be great. I just want to know how safe it is for tints.
 
Thanks for the review Collin. I might be picking one of these up soon. In your video, did you pretreat that stained carpet prior to steaming?
 
I have the same steamer and it rocks...I thought I hit the holy grail when i bought the new Tornador black BUT,,This steamer beats it hands down. It cleans dirty headliners with ease,,and MUCH MUCH more !!!
Best detailing item I have.
One of my customers trunk had debris and dirt build up all over along the outer trunk seal. The tornador did ok and got some of the dirt.
When I fired up the Firebird steamer,,It blasted the dirt away in seconds with no chemicals or cost other than electricity and a cup of water
 
Thanks for the review. It seems like a must have for some serious cleaning.
 
I use the small pad that disassembles off the window attachment with a Microfiber around it, I spray some 303 carpet cleaner, hit the area of carpet with some steam and then rub rug lightly but vigorously. Wow! stained carpets come out looking new.

Anyone successful doing the exterior?, I'm worried about scratching customers paint.
