We've been asked by Kärcher to find 15 UK based Mumsnetters to put their SC2.500C Steam Cleaner to the test.

Kärcher say "The Kärcher SC2.500C Steam Cleaner makes light work of grease, dirt, stains and even limescale, delivering deep cleaning results with no chemicals or scrubbing. It kills 99.9% of bacteria with just the power of steam, and can be used on most surfaces around the home."

This product test is open to all UK Mumsnetters.

The 15 chosen MNers will need to be:

  • Available to receive the steam cleaner, and willing to test it over two weeks (14-27th April). Please only apply if you're available during this time.
  • Able to leave feedback on the feedback thread at least twice: we'd like first impressions and then some comments after you've used the cleaner a few times. You'll also be asked to add a review to the steam cleaner review section on MN.

5 of the 15 participants may also need to film a few videos on their smartphone (via an app we'll need you to download). Those MNers will receive an additional £50 Amazon.co.uk voucher as a thank you for filming.

Everyone who takes part in the product test and leaves their feedback as requested gets to keep the Kärcher steam cleaner after testing (RRP £ 232.09).

If you'd like to take part please sign up here.

Thanks and good luck!

I did this last time, the cleaner is hardly used now after the families initial playtime. If it didn't move it got steamed.

Lovely freebee though, recommend you all go for it.

I really hope to be chosen this time.

Done

craftynclothy · 01/04/2014 14:06

Done. Dd1 has a birthday before the test dates so I put down the age she will be then rather than what she is now. Hope that's ok?

haydoe · 01/04/2014 14:25

It is spring cleaning time! Would love to make this job easier and cleaner by using a steam cleaner.

Filled out survey. God, I would love to get chosen for this. It's so beyond me financially otherwise, and I've wanted to get one for ages. Fingers crossed!
