Will this steamer work on upholstered furniture? I want to steam slipcovers on couch, but am told to leave them on the couch while steaming

I would suggest it on furniture ONLY if you can hold the steamer handle in a vertical position. So don't do the cushions unless you can hold them upright. You risk getting burned and leaking water on your upholstery if you hold it in a horizontal position.

I'm sure it would work - but there are cheaper options. One thing to point out is that it's better to steam from the inside outwards. Hope this helps you out.

I honestly have not tried it on upholstery. I always use club soda and a white rag for carpet and upholstery stains. And put a box fan on the stop to dry it.

I myself have not used it on my carpet yet. I did use it on my furniture though. It's not like a carpet\upholstery cleaner where it applies hot soapy water and extracts it. The steam loosens and lifts the dirt to the surface and you have to wipe it off with a towel. That's what I did anyway. It's a little bit of work but well worth it. My furniture looks like new again. Carpets would have to be done the same way I'm sure. I don't think it was designed to clean big carpet jobs. I would go with an extractor type cleaner if carpet cleaning is what you're mainly after.

I actually bought this to use on my couch, & I break it out specifically for that purpose on a biweekly to monthly basis due to my nearly two year old putting his grubby hands all over the fabric. The steam is nearly dry, if that makes sense. I'm satisfied that its sanitizing what I try to keep wiped up. It won't get up heavy soil on its own out of fabric, but it like loosens the really tough stuff so you can wipe it up with a clean cloth dampened with a water, vinegar & Dawn mixture.

with this product they didn't even stick to my furniture to work so you should be ok. But honestly a wash clothing wet should get it off. Goof off works good too but may hurt your furniture

Depends on the couch. This thing is basically a motorized brush that sprays water/shampoo and sucks it back up. So, it depends on the couch and the type of fabric....I don't see why not other than the brush wearing down the fabric of the couch...or the shampoo being too much for the fabric (use laundry detergent instead...depending on fabric). Sorry I am not much of a help here.... :-)

Fizzion who destroy the odor on anything it touches. The problem with carpet is that the fizzion cannot get all of the way down into the carpet fibres, so it is sort of a hit and miss proposition. I would suggest that you use a steamer on your carpet. You can just use an ordinary floor steamer, remove the pads and hold it over the carpet. Doing this destroys the odors and cooks all of the bacteria, fleas, dust mites leaving your carpet pest free and odor free. If you have to buy a steamer check the temperature of the steam. Hotter is better for your purposes. Good luck. This will also work on all of your upholstered furniture but make sure you get under the cushions if you want pest control.

This steamer can certainly work on all types of floors and most types of fabric. I would just recommend that you carry the base pad with you so that whenever you set it down, it is not left directly on the surface. Also, keep the pad clean to avoid transferring dirt.

It sounds like you are asking if the steam would be compatible with the material on the couch. The safest answer will come from the manufacturer of the furniture as to whether the hot steam would be damaging to the fabric.

I do not know if upholstery fabric responds the way dress clothing does. I have used K2r for years on dress and suit fabrics made of cotton, linen, wool, silk, and a variety of other fabrics with good results. I always let the K2r dry completely then brush it with anything from the top of the lid or a thick knapped towel. Hope this is of help. You might want to try it on an inconspicuous spot on your sofa before using it on the spot. Good luck to you.

Yes you can clean your living room furniture depending on what type of cloth material it is made out of. If you are asking about the wood on the furniture, I would definitely say NO. You can also "wash down" walls, but keep whatever nozzle you are using far enough away from the wall not to harm it by steaming too much in one place. I have seen Flat & Eggshell (Semi-Gloss) water based painted walls fade quite easily, so be very careful when doing this. Regards, Sasha Customer Service Manager The Mercantile Station You will not want to concentrate the steam in one place very long and use one of the larger steam attachments so you get a much larger mist that is not concentrated in one place.

I've used the wand attachment on a couple of our pieces of furniture and it works fine because you can control the amount of water used. But I definitely wouldn't use the round scrubber portion of the machine on furniture because it puts out way too much liquid!As with all surfaces you clean, make sure that whatever cleaner you use is okay for that fabric. Otherwise, you'll make it look worse and possibly void any warranty you may have.

I never used it before on leather furniture. Your question led me to try it out on my soft-leather beige couch. It cleaned it about as well as the leather cleaner I have, but it didn't leave a moisturizing finish as did the leather cleaner. It didn't do any damage to my leather but it didn't magically make the leather instantly clean either. I used a dilute solution. I will try a more concentrated solution at a later time. Good luck. Sorry I couldn't answer your question adequately.

When I owned this the company made an accessory that could be used for steaming clothing ...at an extra cost. I never used it on rugs. Don't know about that one.

yes, I do use one of the attachments, I think the brush to steam clean my upholstered furniture.

This formula is designed for use on upholstery including microfiber. Make sure you check the manufacturer tag on your couch, if it has a W or WS listed it should be safe to use but its always a good idea to test in an inconspicuous area first. If the tag has a S or X we would not recommend using this formula

Yes. It works good on furniture. I cleaned a chair bought at a garage sale. It looked pretty clean when I bought it but it was even cleaner (and the wash water a lot dirtier) after cleaning.
