Can anyone tell me if these are worth getting? I've fancied one for ages and have just seen that Aldi has them for £15.
What do you use them for? I was thinking of using one for the nooks and crannies in my bathroom, and would they clean grout?
Thanks in advance.

Can't speak for the aldi one but I have a a handheld and a floor steamer and I wouldn't be without either. Fantastic kit, does all the day to day household cleaning jobs but is also great for cleaning carpet spills, curtains, dry clean only clothes etc.

Not sure how good the aldi one will be as it does seem cheap but there's not much to lose - aldi have 2 year warranty on most things as well I think?!

Sorry to answer the other part of your question they do get into all the nooks and crannys in bathroom and kitchen and they are reasonable at grout but depends how mouldy dirty it is. Maybe use some detail mould and mildew spray first as this s very good for grout.

Thanks Henbur. It sounds good.I think I'll give the Aldi one a go. Smile

I got one from lidl. It looks similar to the Aldi one. I like it and it is definitely good at getting into nooks and crannies. It will help clean grout and remove mould but you may need to use a mould killer first if it is really bad. It is good for preventing mould regrowth once removed!

Thanks educatingarti. I got one today and going to give it a try tomorrow. I'm sadly excited.

I don't think I'm going to bother- I don't have any tiles as my kitchen and bathrooms are done with wet wall so n o grout. Glad for the advice before I went and wasted more money on one!
