Ladybug XL Description |
The Ladybug XL 2300 Vapor Steam Cleaner Standard is the most durable and highly reliable residential steam cleaning appliance. The good thing is that this steam cleaner can also be used on lighter commercial cleaning tasks. The Ladybug XL has a built-in storage area for keeping its various attachments and accessories.
This steam cleaning appliance features a heavy duty and large tank made form stainless steel. It can withstand heat of up to 298F thus the steam delivered by the unit will instantly kill germs and bacteria on dirty surfaces. The powerful pressurized steam delivered by the unit is also responsible for easily melting away grease, oil, and deeply embedded debris on floor surfaces. Most importantly, the Ladybug XL does not require chemical cleaning agents and relies solely on steam generated by tap water.
This is a high performance device, and can be used continuously for longer hours without danger of overheating. It has an easy refill system so there is no need to re-pressurize the appliance and wait for another round of heating. It comes equipped with durable steam nozzle, window cleaning tools, triangular and rectangular brushes, nylon brushes, extension wands, and long power cord. An instructional video is also included in the unit.

Summary: THis steamer rocks |
| |
I have been using this steamer for over a month now and am still impressed. The volume and heat of the steam is outstanding. The continuous refill ability allows this unit to be used for several hours without being shut down for refills. I have cleaned stoves, tile, glass, floors, bathroom fixtures and even utensil and this steamer cuts through the grunge without the use of chemicals with the exception of bathrooms. A bit of lime away is still helpful to get any deposits loosened before steam cleaning.
I am also very satisfied with the build and operation of the unit. The attachments are all well made and fit solidly with no leakage of steam around the joints. The attachments are well insulated and even after long periods of use remain cool enough to handle without the use of gloves. All the parts lock together with a very solid snap and do not come apart in normal use.
All in all I can highly recommend this steamer. A solids all around package.

Summary: If you're looking for a GREAT Vapor cleaner, look no further.... |
| |
I've had this model of Ladybug for years and it works as well as the day I bought it. I know this is a LOT of money to spend on a cleaning appliance, but it really is worth every penny. You can clean everything with this unit because of all the various attachments it comes with. Before I bought my power washer I used my Ladybug to remove moss from a brick wall in my courtyard...it worked too! I use it to clean my floors, my windows, my walls (be careful on your walls! don't leave the vapor on a wall or it will remove the paint and damage the drywall...be very careful) the kitchen, bathroom, the oven, the microwave. If you have a stubborn stain to clean, it's no match for the vapor cleaner. I have used every attachment too. I admit, I don't use the squeegee attachment for windows anymore because it's easier just to spray the vapor on the window and dry with a paper towel or rag. It works wonders on windows and mirrors. It took some old paint off a window that had been there for YEARS....the vapor just melted it away. All the attachments have a home on the unit. A place for everything and everything in its place....I love it. I also like the fact that you use cloth with the floor attachments. The DVD explains how to attach the cloths and how to use all the various attachments. It's a continuous vapor boiler. When you run out of water, just refill it and keep on going. There's no waiting for the vapor to build again. It's just an all around great cleaning machine. It even comes with its own funnel! If you're in the market for a vapor cleaner, this is the one to get. It's built to last and definitely has lasted for me. It's a great machine.

Summary: The Steam Canister SHOWDOWN: I've done the comparisons for you |
| |
I have had my eye on this steamer for months now, drooling over all it could do but it was far out of my price range. I own the Envirosteamer steam floor mop and love it, but I wanted something to get into tight spaces like around the toilet, in the tub, the oven, etc. With some Santa money I got more serious about purchasing a canister steamer in addition to my floor steamer, and began some comparative testing and studying. Fortunately, I live in a neighborhood that is all "green built certified" which means, in order to have a green rating, all homes were built with no carpet and lots of people hate chemicals which means it's a neighborhood full of steam mops which makes comparing the models quite easy. That's a good thing because it just saved me over a thousand bucks. Here's how they rate...you decide which is best for you:
These are the canister mops I compared:
Vapamore MR-100
Ladybug XL-2300
Haan Canister
Reliable Enviromate
V=Vapamore
L=Ladybug
H=Haan
R=Reliable
NUMBER OF STEAM JETS SPITTING OUT HOT STEAM:
V-10
L-8
H-12
R-5
WATER PRESSURE CONTEST; (1st place being shoots steam the hardest)
V- 2nd PLACE
L-1ST PLACE:
H- 3rd PLACE:
R- 4th PLACE:
CORD LENGTH: (so you don't have to stop, unplug, water cools some, replug in)
V-18 feet
L-15 ft
H-18 feet
R-8 feet
recap: An 8' cord is INSANE. I couldn't even get across my kitchen counter or walk around my bed to steam all of the mattress without using an extension cord!
STEAM TEMPERATURE
V-256 degrees
L-297 degrees
H-212 degrees
R-218 degrees
Note: These temperatures are based upon using the small hose attachments. In every case that we used the long hose attachment included to turn these into a floor mop, the steam had to travel down the long hose so it cooled and wound up only being about 115 degrees by the time it reached the floor. Which results in very poor cleaning. Because of this, if you are wanting this mostly for floor steaming, I would suggest going with a steamer that shoots out hot steam directly onto the floor from its tank rather than through a long hose before reaching the floor as a canister mop does.
TIME TO HEAT UP:
V-10 min
L-8 min
H-3 min
R-5 min
WATER TANK:
V-1.6 liters
L-1.8+1.5 quarts
H-20 oz
R 2 liters
CLEANING:
For a controlled cleaning test, I mixed Dr. Pepper with sugar and spread it evenly across a 4' length of my stained concrete floor and kept the pets away until it dried completely in a gunky mess. I then tested each mop against it in lengthwise strips, moving them at the same pace after a full heat up, as well as testing each on its own strip of bathroom tile & grout. Here's who performed the best:
Tie: Ladybug and Vapamore. These, due to the really hot temps, loosened the gunk on impact and made it VERY easy to clean my floor. Their hot temps and heavier steam also cleaned tile the best but Vapamore actually did a BETTER job on uneven surfaces like tile with grout..but don't expect shiny white grout because it wasn't exactly returned to looking brand new either.
2nd place:Haan...but it wasn't nearly as good as the above two.
Last place: Reliable. Although the steam temp is hotter than the Haan, it doesn't shoot out as strong and only had 5 steam jets so this diminished its effectiveness Didn't come close to the V or L.
All were at temps to kill bacteria and sanitize without using chemicals such as counters and mattresses, unless you tried to turn it into a floor mop which I don't suggest because the steam was too cool to clean as well as a real floor steam mop made for that purpose..
What you typically get with each mop can vary depending on specials and the seller but typically
Other notes: The ladybug was the most awkward to carry.
Conclusion: Considering the Ladybug is over a thousand dollars more than any of the other mops, this was a real eye opener! I tested these with my friends and we all agreed, hands down, that the Vapamore was the best buy. And I love it! It cleaned the best BUT the Ladybug lasted much longer as far as cleaning time. However, Vapamore cleaned for 50 minutes prior to needing a refill which, for me, is all I need. That said, if you want to use this commercially and don't want to have to take time to refill, the Ladybug may be worth the steep price for you. Considering they have the same 3 year warranty though, I'd rather buy 4 Vapamores for the price of one Ladybug and have one in every room. I kid. The Reliable seemed to lack things that were just silly...like having a cord longer than my blow dryer and only having 5 steam jets.
