steam cleaner
11 Answers
I've recently bought a hand held steam cleaner but the instructions
advise not to use an extension lead with it, but that's the only way I
can use it in in the bathroom because the flex on the steamer isn't
long enough to reach. Do you think using an extension lead will really
do any harm? TIA

just make sure you have a suitably rated and length of lead, as you should unravel the whole thing (not leave it coiled up - v. dangerous). also get one of those rcd plugs (tenner from b&q) for added safety.

"make sure it's fully unwound"
Reminds me of a gig we did in a marquee outside a pub.
The drummer said "leave it to me, I've got a really long extension lead".
What he didn't tell us was that it was 30 metre lead, and he left 20 metres of it on coiled on the drum. 15 minutes into the first set, and you can imagine what happened.
