(More customer reviews)We are expecting our first child and were excited to find a product that could clean and sanitize our home without using harsh or harmful chemicals. Sadly, that excitement was short lived.
After taking the wand and base out of the box and reading the instructions for setting it up, we placed the wand in the base to charge for the amount of time recommended by the manufacturer and waited. Once it was properly charged, we used it to clean a portable baby sleeper (a little smaller than a standard sized Moses basket). Once done (not more than 10-12 mins), the wand went back into the base unit. A few hours later, we decided to try the wand on a 2' x 3' section of kitchen counter...that's where the disappointment started. After only a couple of seconds, the wand light sputtered and went out. We turned to the guide that came with the unit but discovered that it was not at all helpful in troubleshooting this issue. Then, thinking that we may not have properly seated the wand in the base after the first use, we decided to put it back in the base and give it more time before trying again. This attempt at a remedy, yielded nothing. The unit suddenly went from useful cleaning product to modern looking paperweight...useless.
Ultimately for the price, we expected far better performance than we got from this unit and have since returned it in favor of a portable steam cleaner.
The best thing we can say about this experience is that Amazon was really good about the return process.
