While the steam machine market is constantly evolving, I am doing my best to keep up with it and to add the current machines – the ones which just came out or are popular – to this site on a regular basis. Below you’ll find them separated in 4 of the most popular groups: canister, multi-purpose & vacuum, handheld/portable and steam mops. I loved reviewing all of them and I still enjoy using the ones I’ve marked as the “Best” in my own home. If you are a first-time steam machine user, you can also read how to use your steam machine properly here.
Without further adieu, below are my top choices for steam cleaners this year (ordered by type):
