This is the only steamer I've had but they all seem the same. The steamer shoots the steam up inside the plastic and foam roller to warm them one at a time.

Yes!! It works exactly like the caruso ;-) I also had that back in the late 90's haha nice

I hated this product so much that I actually threw it in the garbage...it did nothing, in my opinion!

I'm not sure because I've never had the caruso. But I think they are very similar

If you mean no luck = no steam, check the hole in the bottom of the unit to see if it is even open. Mine was sealed shut with some type of plastic. I took a very small drill bit and with hand turning only (I did not put it into an electric drill) I was able to drill out the plastic and open the hole. Then my steamer began to steam. If water cannot get into the hole, steam cannot be made. I too owned a Caruso and this one works the same. The rollers steam up in seconds and by the time I have put one into my hair the next one is ready. I hope you are able to get yours to work!

I haven't tried just the steamer. I know that with other ionic products it made my hair shinier and easier to manage. As soon as I can compare the two I will repost.

Hi LouiseI haven't investigated this yet because I didn't have a reason to change any part on my steamer. But I am sure if you searched within the Amazon catalogue you might find what you are looking for.

Hello, I brought this steamer, and had a positive review. What exactly are you looking for this steamer to do for you? I've used this steamer 2xs a week since October, and it still works great. My hair is so soft and easy to handle after my steaming sessions. I am African American with thick, long, kinky hair.

If you are doing large amounts of laundry yes the steamer is great. It will press better than an iron every time. The only downside is the start up time for the water, so if you're not in a hurry it is the best choice. All of the heads will work the same, one is smaller for smaller items.

Mine had wooden rollers whih work fine. Unit works great once you play with the dough to get the right moisture level.

I got rid of mine a long time ago, I found it hard to push and it left my floor really wet. I bought the Shark, it has 2 interchangeable steam heads, and it works great, it doesn't leave my floors soaking wet, and it throws out a lot of steam. It does say to use distilled water with it, but I don't, after about a year and a half it did plug up with calcium deposits, but I just took the steam head apart which was easy and soaked it in Vinegar, then cleaned out the small tube with a paper clip, now it works great again.

I have used this steamer to steam a gown made of slipper satin and I am happy with the results. I have had others steamers but have gotten the best results with this one. Very professional.

I canyt compare the two as I only have the steam and sweep. It worked great until my wife broke it. The main thing is to make sure that you dont use hard water. The sediment collects in the steamer and clogs it up and if you are not smart enough to realize this you will burn up your steamer running it clogged.

No. This is the worst steamer of all time and is a waste of money. It doesn't steam anything.

Yes, it has worked well for me. It is made very well and is very thick. I use the heaviest steam setting and typically iron for an hour or more and this has never been an issue for me.

I do not have a Steam Jet II, but I do have an EZ1 and an EZ1 XL, They are both excellent. The EZ1 has a higher wattage which I assume would make hotter steam, but the XL works perfectly as well and has a wider head, which I prefer when I am cleaning large areas like the kitchen or family room. I would say they are comparable but it depends on the size of the area you are trying to clean.

Yes this steamer would be perfect. I recently opened a boutique myself and this is what I use every day. Works well and is incredibly simple.

I have ceramic tiles, vinyl tiles and carpet. I should say it does a pretty good job on all area. However one pass is only a gimmick, something it take 2-3 pass to pick up everything you see on the floor. And from times to times the roller brush hit on some harder stuff, like a small piece of sand or rock, which will fly backward. But, generally I do like it's quite, light weight and auto cord retract function.
