McCulloch MC-1275 Heavy Duty Steam Cleaner Providing 1500 watts of steam power, this heavy-duty cleaner requires no chemicals and is easy to use. Ideal for cleaning and detailing cars, trucks, motorcycles, or boats, the cleaner removes stains and odors from upholstery, carpeting, and floor mats, as well as grease and grime from engines, wheels, and chrome accessories. It also works well for removing stuck-on dirt from the BBQ grill, patio furniture, or garage. The “steam ready” light indicates when the unit is ready to use, and a steam-control switch provides control over the amount of steam coming from the unit. The cleaner features a storage compartment for its 10 attachments, which include a steam jet nozzle, two extension wands, a triangle brush, an upholstery/floor brush, and a utility brush, as well as a squeegee, funnel, measuring cup, and terry cover for the floor brush. Its 12-foot power cord, caster wheels, and included accessories offer convenient mobility and make it easy to clean nooks and crannies in hard-to-reach places. The 13-pound steam cleaner has a 50-ounce water-tank capacity, which allows for one full hour of use. The unit measures 17-1/2 by 11-3/7 by 9-1/4 inches. –Catie Unger
Customer Review: McCulloch MC-1275 Heavy Duty Steam Cleaner
I like the unit as it does exactly what I need it to do. The only problem that I have with the unit is that I can’t get replacement parts or new attachments as I was told this unit is no longer manufactured. The unit can be preplaced but the small attachments can not (I didn’t understand that????) I use my unit in the home and on my detail jobs to clean carpet and upholstery. Don’t use it on headliners as the steam will cause the glue to lose its adhesive properties and you will end up with a sagging headliner.
To make this unit better I would make it a continuous fill unit with more metal attachment (steam has melted a few of the brush britles) and had more attachments that will change the spray of the steam such as full stream, Flat, U-shaped etc. with the new attachments I think that this would be a top tier product for the money.
Antiques Roadshow Home Furnishings Drop in to “Antiques Roadshow,” where appraisers from the nation’s top auction houses are eyeing a hodgepodge of furnishings hauled in across the country — from artwork to rugs to tea tables, from a fancy Philadelphia desk to a funky old shaving stand scrounged from a barn and more. * One Massachusetts man who bought and restored a classic 1740 Boston highboy was pleased to find out it’s worth $50,000. But he was less happy to learn it could have commanded $120,000–if he’d left its “ugly” finish intact. * A woman in Connecticut was given a moth-eaten fiddle case by her neighbor. While the dusty 19th-century French violin inside holds very little value, the shredded 1830 bow alone is worth $8,000. Join antiques expert Chris Jussel and his team of specialists as they examine these objects and many more–in clips from the popular PBS series taped around the country–plus footage never seen on TV.
Customer Review: 1997 rerun not what advertised!!!! Shame on you PBS!!!
This is a 1997 program, one hour only, with review stating it is a “new 2006 release”. There is nothing new. It is not furniture…lots of misc. stuff, artwork, musical instuments, rug etc. Save your money. This is not what is advertised. I am going to see if I can return it. If I could rate it a big fat ZERO…I would!
