Powersteam Pro

Professional Handheld Steam Cleaner

  • Scrub-free cleaning in seconds
  • Cleans standing up — no kneeling
  • Chemical-free — water only
  • 12-piece attachment kit included
Free UK delivery
30-day guarantee
2-year warranty

Clean the tub. Stay standing. — the steam does the loosening, so the bath, the shower floor and the toilet base get cleaned from standing height.

Pressurised steam drives into grout lines, sink seams, stove edges and shower corners that sprays and sponges never reach — loosening grease, limescale and soap scum so you wipe once instead of scrubbing. No kneeling. No fumes. Nothing but water.

Includes the full 12-piece attachment kit (£29.99 value) — free.

  • 1050 W boiler, steam at ~3 bar. Pressure drives it into the pore; heat alone only softens the top.
  • Ready in about 4 minutes, then 8–12 minutes of steam per 250 ml fill.
  • Boiler heats to 110 °C. 3 m cord, UK plug, locking safety cap.

Sound familiar?

It was never that you weren't trying hard enough.

You get down to the bath. You spray it, you leave it, you come back and you scrub — and the line along the seam is still exactly where it was.

So you go again. Harder this time. And by the time you straighten up, your back aches, your hands are sore, and the corner still looks the way it looked before you started.

“The scrubbing, and the back pain it’s been giving me, is no joke.”

You have probably tried most of this already:

  • Sprays and degreasers — strong smell, long wait, and still not enough for baked-on grime
  • Stiff brushes and scouring pads — all of the effort loaded onto your hands and shoulders
  • Kneeling on a folded towel, bent over the bath — and feeling it the next morning
  • A different bottle for every room, none of which reached the seam
  • Simply leaving the corners, because getting down there isn't worth it

None of that was a failure of effort. It was the wrong tool for where the dirt actually is — which is the next bit.

A narrow jet of steam driven directly into a tiled grout line

Why the scrubbing never worked

You've been cleaning the top of your grout.

The dirt is inside it. That is why it looks clean while it's wet and filthy again once it dries.

Before and after: a grimy tiled basin surround, and the same surround clean

The same tile and grout, before and after steam.

Grout is porous

Grout, unglazed tile, silicone seams and fabric are full of tiny openings. The soil settles down inside them — below the plane a cloth or a sponge can physically reach.

Steam is a gas

It goes into the opening, condenses inside it, and pushes the soil back out toward the surface. You are not scraping at the top any more; you are lifting from underneath.

Pressure does the work

Everyone in this aisle advertises temperature. Heat alone only softens. At roughly 3 bar the steam does the mechanical work your arm has been doing — that's the difference between this and a warm mist.

No edits, no cuts

Watch it lift.

Real surfaces, real buildup, one pass each. This is the whole argument for the page — the steam does the loosening and the wipe does the rest.

Made for how you actually clean now

Powersteam Pro works at standing height.

Everything else in this category is sold on the time it saves. Nothing is sold on the part people actually dread — getting down on the floor, bent over the bath, scrubbing at a seam with a brush.

This is built so you don't have to. You work at standing height and the pressure does what your arm was doing.

  • No kneeling, no bending over the bath. With the extension tube fitted you reach the bath rim, the shower tray and the toilet base from standing height.
  • No scrubbing motion. No wringing, no pressing, no working at it with a brush. You point it and press a trigger.
  • Short bursts by design. One fill runs 8–12 minutes — long enough to do the bathroom properly, short enough to fit a weeknight. Clean one thing, then stop.

Being straight with you: it still takes two hands, and you still wipe the surface afterwards. What it takes away is the scrubbing.

The four spots that get noticed

The corner you hope nobody looks at.

The base of the tap. The line where the tiles meet the bath. The edge of the hob. Behind the loo. Ten seconds each.

Steam lifting limescale from around the base of a brass tap

Limescale round the tap

Steam softens the mineral crust at the seam where the tap meets the basin, so it wipes away rather than being chipped off.

Steam lifting baked-on grease from the trim of a ceramic hob

Grease along the hob

Grease is a fat, and fats have a melting point. Cold degreaser tries to dissolve a solid. Steam takes it past melting so it simply runs off.

The grout line

The jet nozzle concentrates the whole output onto a few centimetres. A mop spreads the same energy across a wide plate — and reaches none of this.

One ingredient

Read the ingredients. It's water.

No surfactants. No fragrance. No quats. Nothing to look up, nothing to ventilate, and nothing left on the surface afterwards for hands, knees or paws to find.

It also means there is nothing to reorder. Every spray, wipe and cartridge on the market has a refill built into its business model. US households spend around $170 a year on cleaning supplies; the equivalent UK figure isn't published, but the shape of it is the same. Water doesn't work that way.

  • Nothing to breathe in. No fumes, so no opening the window and no waiting for the room to clear.
  • No film left behind. Cleaning residues are slightly tacky, and tacky collects dust. The working agent here evaporates.
  • One tool, one cupboard shelf. Kitchen, bathroom, glass, upholstery and the car — with the attachment that suits the job.

Plain tap water being poured from the measuring cup into the steam cleaner

Three steps

Fill it, wait four minutes, go.

Fill and heat

Stand it on a flat surface. Pour in up to 250 ml of tap water with the funnel and measuring cup, lock the safety cap, switch on. It's ready in about four minutes.

Fit the right head

Jet nozzle for grout and seams. Round brush for baked-on grease. Glass tool for screens and windows. Extension tube for anything you'd otherwise have to kneel for.

Steam, then wipe once

Move slowly — steam needs contact time, so a slow pass beats a fast one. Then a single wipe with a cloth. That's 8–12 minutes of steam before it needs another fill.

What people say

Mostly about the grout.

★★★★★

“Did the entire shower on a Tuesday evening, standing up, in about ten minutes. I'd been putting that job off since we moved in.”

Hannah M. · Harrogate
★★★★★

“Bought it for the grout by the bath, which I'd scrubbed for years and assumed was just stained. It wasn't stained. It was dirty. Rather annoyed about that, honestly.”

Priya S. · Leeds
★★★★★

“Small tank — you do refill it. But I've stopped buying four different sprays, and the cupboard under the sink looks like a normal cupboard again.”

Dawn R. · Bristol
★★★★☆

“Four stars only because I now want a second one for upstairs. Four minutes to heat, then I get through the bathroom in one go before the tank runs out.”

Nicola R. · Glasgow

Questions people ask first

Do I have to get down on the floor to use it?

Mostly, no. The bath rim, shower wall, tiled splashback, tap seams and hob are all done at standing height, and the extension tube adds reach for the low awkward spots like the toilet base. A shower tray or a floor still means bending toward it, and you still wipe the surface afterwards — it removes the scrubbing, not the whole job.

How hot does it get, and is that safe around the house?

The boiler heats water to about 110 °C. Steam leaves cooler than that at the nozzle, and cooler again through the extension tube — but it is still hot enough to scald, so keep it away from skin, let the attachments cool fully before swapping them, and don't point it at anyone. The cap locks while the boiler is under pressure.

How long does one fill last?

8–12 minutes of steam from a 250 ml fill, after about four minutes of heat-up. It has to cool before you refill it. It's a detail tool for the spots that actually look dirty, not a floor machine.

Does it kill germs?

Steam at this temperature does reduce bacteria on a hard surface — but only where it's held in place. Independent testing is clear that a quick pass doesn't do it; you need slow, direct contact on one spot. So we'd rather describe what it reliably does — loosen grease, grime, limescale and soap scum so they wipe away — than print a percentage on the box.

Do I need to buy anything for it?

No. Tap water and the twelve pieces in the box. In a hard-water area, filtered or distilled water will keep scale out of the boiler and it'll last longer.
