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'm off work for those weeks and was planning a major spring clean so this might be the answer to my prayers!

ldt87 · 05/04/2014 18:29

Done! Would love to be chosen for this one.

mummytime · 05/04/2014 18:42

Oh maybe it's my year to really spring clean?

monkeyfacegrace · 05/04/2014 18:47

Jellylove · 06/04/2014 08:20

Done, will I be a chosen one? I'm not usually but it would be good to give this a whirl Smile

sweetpea2014 · 06/04/2014 17:45

Would love to try one of these... I like the idea of cleaning without chemicals!

Iwasagnome · 06/04/2014 19:21

Done , hoping I get picked for this one.

Giflo · 06/04/2014 21:47

Giflo · 06/04/2014 21:55

Forgot to say, that no more having to think about which cleaning agent to use....yepeee!.......just change a nozzle ,add water and away we go. Great savings in the long run and extremely clean surfaces, again, please let me and my family be your guinea pig.:

ellenjames · 06/04/2014 21:57

done.x

edwardcullensotherwoman · 06/04/2014 22:07

Woohoo! Done Smile Love my steam mop but I would like one a bit more versatile - mines only suitable for the tiled floors Hmm

KaFayOLay · 06/04/2014 22:33

3 dogs, 2 kids on cream tiles does not make for a happy kafay, especially when it's 30 square feet to mop!
Anything to make my life easier..... they don't make floor mops like they used to!

Shockers · 06/04/2014 23:22

I wish I'd seen this earlier Sad. I really want one of these. I hate cleaning because I react to lots of cleaning stuff... even Method makes my throat itch.

In the unlikely event that everyone else drops out... I'll do it!

BarmyBeth · 06/04/2014 23:27

pick me please, my cheap steam cleaner broke

MrJollyLivesNextDoor · 07/04/2014 00:34

I would absolutely love to try it out! I'm a bit of a germ buster at the momentBlush I love reviewing too!

MostlyCake · 07/04/2014 09:30

I'm totally up for it! We are just getting over a nasty bug and a deep steam clean would probably be a good thing!!

seasalt · 07/04/2014 11:02

I would love this but am in Ireland so don't know if I can apply?

CakeyCakeyCakey · 07/04/2014 14:12

Ooohh please!!
My manic cleaning habit would love that! I might not have to clean the sink right times before I think it's clean! I do mils house too so have two houses to test it on!

I really really want one!!

RustyParker · 07/04/2014 21:55

I've signed up! Thanks MN x

mjmooseface · 08/04/2014 09:29

I've put off mopping the floors on the off chance I'm picked for this. #wishfulthinking ;)

Binkie69 · 08/04/2014 09:30

Nouseforausername · 08/04/2014 11:58
