I had the sam problem. I wasn't using DISTILLED water. It is a MUST. Clean the glass bowl and with white vinegar. Run steamer again with a about a cap full of vinegar to clean out the upper tubing. It will work fine after that. Remember, ONLY use distilled water.

The only water I get is when I turn off the steam. The left over steam dumps into the bottom tray. No problems since I bought it 6 months ago. Just have to make sure you clean it and take care. A lot of the problems I've seen people posting could be cured by preventative maintenance.

Yes that's exactly what happened to the one I purchased. Customer Service was non existent. I sice purchased a swifter steam mop and works well for the money.

run water thru a couple of times when you first get it and make sure you are using distilled water. Wait till completely heated and a good stream of steam is coming out before placing infront of a client. Try using the ozone for a fuller stream of steam. I haven't had any problem with mine Check all conection are tight.

My machine has been well-used for an elderly dog and then a puppy, but I have only had it about two years. It started developing leaks, and then I noticed that the dirty water container was not filling up. It seemed that all the dirty water was collecting in the bottom and leaking out on the ground. I have been limping along with it like that, but last time, it was a mess. I know I need a new one since yesterday, we had another vomit experience and my son just had a bloody nose all over the carpet. Gotta love the SpotBot!

just got mine out of the box and i'm having the same problem. the filter holder is hot, the steamer seems to be working, but water isn't going through. i thought i tamped the grounds too much, so i have now tried with a loose tamp and with no coffee grounds at all. All I get is a horrible noise. I'm very frustrated!

the model # of my steam vac dual V is F7225-910 however the solution tank I bought was for a F7205-910 which fitted perfectly. The handle is also on the same website, just order the one that is for the solution tank and not the water reservoir. If you need further assistance just let me know and I'll go back onto the website and give you the order numbers. I believe my steamer is also around 10 yrs old

I just got mine a couple weeks ago and have used it 3 times. I do see and hear the steam when using it, it sounds like something might be wrong with yours.

I couldn't find the specs among the documents I got with my Gaggia. Customer service is quite helpful from the distributor. You can find their contact at http://www.importika.com/I am happy with my machine although the steam wand leaks water while the machine is on. They say it is normal but I find it a little annoying. I would buy the machine again anyway.

My first steam iron was wonderful and lasted 8 years. This new is continues to leak water off/on. Very frustrating. The suggestion I was given was to fill with water and then turn it on. Allow 11 mins (or more) to heat up. I will give it a few squirts in the upright prior to ironing. This helps and the water will not squirt onto my clothing. I also have to make sure the dials are both on full steam. Hope it helps. I also passed the return date and am dealing with it.

I just had the same issue with the steamer not working after a few uses. I did what others suggested by blowing air into hole using an ear syringe and it worked. Note that some people mentioned blowing air into the hole on the water tank. I tried that but it didn't work. Instead, I needed to blow air into the hole on the unit itself, i.e. the hole into which the water from the tank feeds into.

Yes...I wrote about this a bit in my review. The same thing happened with a previous Rowenta I had as well. Something in the way they manufacture it or they do some sort of testing in the steam function, results in these white flakes coming out when you first start using the iron with steam. This will go away after a few days or week or so of use. Regarding the leaking, I experienced significant 'spitting' of water with the auto-steam turned on, when the iron would steam and big drops of water were coming out. I didn't have water just leaking out of the sides or anything, which is a problem a lot of defective irons have. But if yours is just "spitting" with the steam, this problem should eventually get better as well after a week or two. However, I've had mine for a few months and it hasn't gone completely away, but it doesn't happen that often or the water drops are small. Still, kind of disappointed with that as my previous Rowentas have not done this. Overall I still think a good iron though so far...you should probably try holding on to it for a bit and see if it gets better.

I don't think so. Mine continues to produce steam until the timer goes off. Sounds like a malfunction. I guess maybe make sure it's got enough water (seems obvious, I know). Other than that I'd call the company!

I have used two versions of this and never had that problem. Maybe you should try replacing the steam head attachement

I have the same problem on my first one after 6 months, replaced it under warranty, and the new one starting having the same problem after 3 months. However I by chance found the fix to this problem as I suspect that it is caused by the steam built up if you left the machine on too long. Here is what I did: 1. Turn the switch to activate coffee/hot water flow. At this moment no water is delivered to the filter as stated in the problem. 2. Place a cup under the steamer wand. Rotate the steamer/water flow knob on top of the machine to deliver hot water from the steamer wand. There will be both water and steam coming out of the wand and the steam will make quite a bit of noise. Wait for all the steam to come out (and the noise should be gone) and only hot water is delivered. Rotate the knob to stop hot water delivery. 3. Now the hot water should be able to run though to the filter. You can turn the switch back to heat up mode to wait for the green LED before making coffee. Hope these steps help.

Pull water container and insert back. Sometimes that does not fit properly and does not produce steam. Use only filtered water. My is perfectly working so far.. Call Black and Decker for trobleshhot your problem...Good luck
