Ladybug 2150 Steam Cleaner
The
Ladybug 2150 vapor steam cleaner is a compact residential steam cleaning system, ideal for customers who want the best
but do not need some of the features of more expensive Ladybug models. Most effective for homes 1200 sq. ft. or less,
the Ladybug 2150 has all of the standard features and performance that have made Ladybug synonymous with steam cleaning.
Its eco-friendly, cleaning and sanitizing potential goes way beyond carpets and rugs to every area of your home.
The Ladybug provides a different kind of clean, a healthy clean.
With
this continuous fill unit, you have amazing cleaning versatility in one machine. Water is added to a non-heated reservoir instead of the
boiler. So unlike other systems, you can safely add water at any time without shutting the machine off. Plus, with Ladybug's efficient water
refill feature, you don't have to wait for the boiler to reheat after it runs out of water. Even when the reservoir is empty, the
boiler retains steam and power, so it is ready to use as soon as you add water.
Because this steam cleaning system produces high temperature dry steam vapor that carries only about 6% water, very little
water residue is left behind. Surfaces are cool to the touch almost immediately and dry within minutes, within seconds on some
surfaces. The Ladybug system is engineered for sustainable temperature and pressure, trapping the hot steam at the surface to remove the dirt. Relying on heat
instead of high pressure means a more thorough clean with less mess.

 Ladybug 2150 Steam Cleaners
As the introductory model of steam cleaner, the Ladybug 2150 is a compact residential steam cleaning system with amazing versatility and durable
construction. Ladybug has been at the front of steam cleaning technology, and the 2150 steam cleaner displays the core features that have made
this brand synonymous with effective, long lasting steam cleaners. We tested this starter steam cleaner and were quite pleased with the results.
What I like about the Ladybug 2150 Steam Cleaner
I really like that these machines do not use any chemicals to clean. For most of us, this is going to be the biggest benefit of using
steam vapor to clean and sanitize. The use of chemical cleaners is so commonplace that none of us really stop to think about the
stuff we are spreading on our floors or countertops. As things like allergies, asthma and multiple chemical sensitivity increase among the
population, we are just now starting to take note of the toxic chemicals we are using to pollute our homes with, all in the name of "clean." Traces of ammonia,
chloride, oils and other chemicals are simply not healthy for anyone, yet every day millions of people use these chemicals to clean and deodorize their
homes. With steam cleaning you kill germs, viruses, mold, mildew and bacteria while
loosening up dirt, grease and grime with simple tap water and heat. There is no harmful residue or chemicals to off-gas and pollute your indoor air.
Like all Ladybug steam cleaners, the 2150 is great for dust mite allergy sufferers. The 220 F steam instantly kills dustmites whether in your pillows,
mattress or furniture. Aside from bedding encasings to keep dust mites outs, steam cleaning is one of the safest and most effective ways to
kill dust mites.
With nearly all of the included attachments, I was able to find an effective use for them. This is important since many steam cleaners have
a lot of attachments, but most don't work as well as advertised or are simply useless for most of us. With few exceptions, I was able to
and can easily see myself in the future using the included attachments and accessories provided with this Ladybug.
Steam cleaning is also great for household furniture and appliances that have odors that are hard to get rid of by
conventional means. During my testing, I was able to deodorize an older sofa at home with the Ladybug 2150 well enough that I had
no hesitation in giving it away to my friend. It also helped pull up a few stains that had been there for quite some time, and all without
the use of chemical cleaners or deodorizers that simply mask odors.
One of my favorite features of the Ladybug system is the continuous fill ability. You can fire up the machine and you do not have
to repeatedly stop and wait to finish your cleaning jobs. The continuous feed system also eliminates the need to flush recondensed steam from the lines after
each fill. This is a problem with many less expensive models. You'll clean, run out of water, so you have to stop the machine and refill it. After it
heats back up, often the first thing to come out is liquid water that has recondensed. The Ladybug steam cleaners virtually
eliminate this with their system that keeps steam available at your fingertips when when the water tank runs dry. Just note, that when you FIRST
start the unit, you will want to purge the line of any air or moisture that has settled since your last use.
What I do not like about the Ladybug 2150 Steam Cleaner
Steam cleaners tend to be expensive across the board. However, with a Ladybug, you really get more than just clean. Using a
quality steam cleaner promotes a healthier kind of clean that you simply cannot get with chemical cleaners. And when you factor in what
you would pay for a new steam cleaner every 2 years as opposed to one Ladybug that will likely last you 10 years, the initial cost
is well worth the investment.
Though this is the lower end of the Ladybug steam cleaner line, I really wish there was some sort of tool caddy or storage
device. I can see some of the smaller brushes getting lost in my closet.
In summary, I give this product a very strong 4 out of 5 stars. It is a little pricey, but I think the unit is well worth the
money. The brand reputation and warranty provide a good deal of piece of mind. And, the versatility and the convenience make
it a very attractive steam cleaning tool that can be used throughout your home or office.
