does it need to be flushed every day and is it easy to do ? or clean?

I'm a professional laundress and press using this system 8 to 10 hours a day. I only use Distilled water so there will be no calcium build up in boiler unit. If you do this you never have to drain or clean and it will last so much longer. To speed the time to press after filler with water- use the hottest water available ( I actually have a big pot of water on the stove simmering during my pressing time to add when the water runs out).

Thus far, I had no need to flush the system. I have a permanent set up and I simply leave the water in. I usually use up a full load of water in approximately two days.

I do not flush or empty mine. I had the previous version which lasted many, many years, with only an occasional flushing with vinegar. I do used instilled water because it was needed with the earlier one and it's just habit. LOVE these irons!

We had issues with these items soon as we got them. These iron boards are no longer supported by the manufacturer. They are discontinued and are not reliable.

I just wipe it clean once per week but I think the key is to use distilled water so deposits won't be an issue.

I think it is very easy to clean! I've been cleaning it every two weeks, seems to be good enough. I fill it probably every 2-3 days with about 2 C. of water as maintenance.

Yes, this potty does clean easily. The only spot that is tricky to keep clean are the handles. They are two pieces that have a crack in the middle. Dirt settles in the crack.

It is very easy to clean. Daily, you are supposed to empty it out (so water doesn't sit and allow bacterial growth). Weekly, you rinse it with water and a bit of vinegar. Specifically, fill it with water and 2 tsp of vinegar, give it a little swish, let it sit for 20 minutes, swish it again, then rinse it. You can watch the video on Amazon (next to the picture of the product) in which the lady demonstrates the cleaning process; in just a couple of minutes, the video shows you all that needs to be done.

yeah it's pretty easy to clean, very actually. Just about any cleaner will do. I always just used a bit of diluted dish soap and water, or for lighter spills just a wet towel works.

I haven't had to clean it for mold and mildew yet..but as far as regular cleaning, it is easy.

its not hard to clean. I use it everyday and I just throw the parts in the dishwasher and wipe the outside of the motor housing. The 'extra large" feed shute is bigger than the last one that I had which doesnt tell you much, but it has been sufficient for me, and I use mine at work where we feed about 50 people a day and it does the job very well. Im happy with it so far

The tank does not require cleaning unless the system is not in use for a long period of time. Usually, flushing the tank once would be enough.

I don't quite understand your question, but yes, it is easy to clean in general. It is all one piece and you can just rinse or wipe clean. Hope this helps!

i don't have any issue, probably because i clean mine every day after i use it and once a week automatically soak the unit in a mild solution of baking soda and vinegar in water - like i do with my toothbrush.

Yep, that's what I do, just plunge the clean water a few times to clean the inside, then give the outside a quick wipe with some toilet paper. That gets it pretty clean.

Yes it is easy to clean, but be careful around the inside base when you are changing the filter, as ours snapped off after we had it for about 6 months. KJ

Yes, it is easy to clean. Just use a towel with soap and water and wipe it down.

It depends on how thorough you want to be. You can just run soapy water through the system and be done. I like to soak the nozzle parts, the hand piece, and hoses and scrub everything clean. To me, it's worth it to know it will be ready to go next time I drag it out.

It is so easy to clean. I just take it in and wash it in warm soapy water, no scrubbing needed.

It does get dirty fairly easy, but it is very easy to clean with just a lysol or wet wipe of some kind. I clean mine about once a week and it's always looking brand new.
