How hot does this steamer get? (temperature wise)

I would think it's at least 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius) because it becomes steam. It definitely hurts if you put your hand right in front of the nozzle when the steam is coming out.

The steam gets extremely hot and could burn you quickly. You need to be very careful.

In order for steam to be created the water temp has to reach a minimum of 212 F. I am unsure of the exact temp or weight, however it is lightweight and I agree with Chris's comment that it does seem hard to push only when it is steaming. I bought mine a few years back and it still works great and I would still recommend it. I have used it in three homes since I bought it with wood, laminate, vinyl, and stone. I like that it appears to kill germs from high steam heat - I am a nurse and this is a very important feature to me, I am a complete germaphobe and insist on getting things as clean as possible next to sterilization. Hope this helps! Good luck. In order for steam to be created the water temp has to reach a minimum of 212 F.

It does not appear to have a temperature setting on it but it has settings for different style fabrics which operate at different temperatures. You are also in control of how much steam comes out.

It steams very well, but I have already sold it. Overall, it was a good steamer.

I haven't actually measured the temperature but I just ran some hot water into my mug with a tea bag in it and it is brewing nicely. Another person reports that the temperature is plenty hot.

Not sure of temp. It's hot but not enough that It would burn you. Works nice.

Just tested it for you. It heated cold water (with nothing else in it) to 165 degrees. Love my Cocomotion!

From 70 to 166 and that's hot--at least really warm. And you can extend the time easily, in addition to the temp. I love this thing and I was always a "thermophore" person before. I've had this one for about 6 months.

I have only used mine indoors for the shower actually so I haven't had the change to try in direct sun. That said I do use a steam unit in my shower and the temp. gets pretty hot in there and I have never had any problems yet.

I have a moderate amount of steam coming from mine at it seems to be working... I've never had one before so I haven't got anything to compare it with. I can only say it seems to do the job intended. hope this helps.

I found it takes a minute or two to get hot enough to produce visible steam when on "high" (all 3 lights lit). Since we've only used it on tile floors its always been used on the hottest setting. On the lowest setting I don't think it is designed to generate steam

I haven't noticed it getting hot at all! I'll try to pay closer attention the next time I use it but I don't recall it being hot at any time I picked it up - and I've used it quite a bit since I bought it!

It's a steamer and it gets hot as normal steam type appliances. I really like my steamer. it is better than those stick type steamers. I assume you are looking for some type for your home use. I found dirt where I did not know it was lurking.

Yes it is very hot - even the low setting. You would get burnt if you put you hands or other body part right within the steam path.

I do steam. Only put on high temp until the water boils then I lower it until I get an even boil. Any higher and you just boil off the water quicker. I.E. temp of steam is always 212 degrees no mater how much of it we make.

The temperature water turns to steam ( water vapor) is 212 degrees f. To get it any higher iit must be put under high pressure. So 212 degrees is what you're going to get out of any steamer that you would use in the home.

The steam gets pretty hot! Be careful not to put it right next to your scalp. I usually put it halfway between my scalp and hair. This way, I don't hit my scalp with the steam, just my hair! Hope this helps!! :)
