Black&Decker FSMH13151

No chance for dust and bacteria

The popular company Black&Decker has a whole line of steam cleaners in its arsenal designed to greatly simplify the cleaning process. In addition to standard features, the FSMH13151 model has received features that significantly distinguish it from classmates.

Design and features

The assembly quality of the device is not in question, since the plastic is durable and even if the mop will fall during the process, the likelihood of cracks is minimized. The control unit is located in the centre, with its help you can select the steam intensity depending on your floor covering (tile, linoleum, laminate) or turn on the “turbo” mode, which increases the steam supply by 50% for 10 seconds, if you need to carefully process a small square. A light indicator will inform you about readiness for work, by the way, water in a 0.5 liter tank warms up in just 15 seconds, and a full tank lasts for 15-20 minutes of continuous operation. Of course, a higher performance would be preferable, but given that the tank is also designed for vertical operation, a larger tank will feel too heavy.

Universal cleaning

It is worth noting that with the help of a steam cleaner, you can wash almost all surfaces of the home that are not afraid of heat treatment. The set includes a nozzle for windows and textiles, and for convenience, the water tank can be detached, and a hose with the necessary nozzle is connected to it. In fact, you get two in one: a steam mop and a compact steam cleaner for all surfaces.

Easy Care

Caring for the mop is absolutely easy, as all nozzles are fastened with velcro and can be easily removed for cleaning, and they can be washed either by hand or in a washing machine at temperatures up to 60 °C with any detergent. The cleanliness of the nozzles should be taken very carefully, and the surfaces to be treated, especially the floor, must be thoroughly vacuumed, as the likelihood of stains is very high.

Separately, it is worth mentioning the power cord, the length of which is 6 metres, which will save you from constantly switching the device from socket to socket. And for storage or so that the cord does not interfere during work, it is conveniently wound up and attached to a special loop under the handle.

In summary, it is worth noting that a steam cleaner cannot completely replace a mop or a vacuum cleaner, but for families with small children or pets, as well as for people who cannot tolerate detergents, this is an excellent device to keep the house completely clean and sterile.
