Best Steam Cleaner on a budget??
I go over some of the pros and cons of ownership of my McCulloch MC1375 steamer, also how to operate and care for this steamer.

Honestly I appreciate you “dumbing it down” I just picked this up today and it didn’t come with a book so thank you for this!
Mines on it's way hope it works well seen a lot of bad reviews on these steamers after researching decided to get it anyways🤞
I still use it daily and does great!
How did you like it
I've used mine a ton a love it found mine on a khols website super cheap
Sadly idk if I'm using wrong but mine the steam does not go to 320
@@antsgarage1146 I just paid 169 off Amazon
Came here to figure out how the accessory net was supposed to attach to the unit. thanks mate!
Your welcome! Are you a new subscriber?
Just bought mine, just got it friday.
Awesome! Great machine!
Andy, thanks for the video! You did a great job on explaining features and helpful hints on use such as Jet nozzle attachment decreasing pressure and cleaning power, (I’d of expected the opposite), as well as explaining excess water not an issue after a couple of minutes. I previously owned a Shark Steamer and loved it, but steamer features are more advanced now so I went with McCulloch Canister Steam System with Handle to carry and/or pull. Just about to use my new steamer and appreciate your helpful and articulate video with the info. 💎 Jewels
Hey Andy,
I contacted McCullough (actually SteamFast, make the unit).
They said that the hose is NOT replaceable! They said people need to take care not to kink the hose, eg. coling and tucking the hose at sharp angles.
Also, they said that steam cleaning the vents will leave moisture (water) in the chambers. They do not recommend using it anywhere in or on anything that will not be thoroughly and immediately dried. So I would say its ok if I used an air moving device afterwards or leave the HVAC system on during and for a sufficient time afterwards to ensure its dry enough.
They did remind me that they will replace the entire unit if ANYTHING fails, within the first TWO YEARS.
One last note. They said this information is in the USER'S MANUAL!
I said, to the nice woman; well, you kn and know us men! LOL
No: Six Man thank you that’s so above and beyond! Your awesome. Great information! Yes your right we are men we don’t read that stuff lol at least not all of it.
@@AndysAutoCarePlus 😁
They replaced my 1385 with no problem!
This helped so much! Thank you!
Awesome 👏
Thanks for all the advise. It really does help and is appreciated.
Looks like they should put a relief valve on it so you can trip it when either you're done or want to refill it, like on an old fashioned pressure cooker. Throw the valve, the steam escapes, then ya just remove the lid and refill. Bleeding after sitting is a given. That's why when steam locomotives first take off you'll notice they open the petcocks on the cylinders as it let's the water build up out and you'll see steam shoot out from under the pistons because water cannot be compressed and they would damage the pistons if they just took off without opening the petcocks. Your "flash steaming" comment gave me a chuckle as anyone who's ever dealt with an overheated radiator on an old car can testify to.
What is “O and R”? That you add to the distilled water?
amzn.to/3UpfJtO
Direction say can add 4 of those cup=64 oz. Is there a reason u only put 32 in your unit?
Great detailed review. Exactly what I was looking for on this steamer. Just ordered the 1385 version which has slightly larger capacity and vertical; but I believe is essentially the same.
How's it holding up?
My steamer turns on but doesn't heat up, what's the problem?
Does it come with an extension to clean your kitchen floors while standing up?
Yes. check out the link in the description.
tto clean boiler use 50 50 mix distilled water and vinegar let it sit over night and rinse 4 5 times
Jamesbond 007 Thanks for the tip man.
My instructions said to fill it with 48 oz.wich I believe is 3 of those cups.
Great Starter video! What may I ask, is O & R additive?
It’s a waterless wash. I have it in the description.
Hoping to kill the fleas I've been fighting since MAY with this thing. Just cleaned my carpets now I'm gonna use this to go along all cracks and baseboards. Thanks!
can it just be distilled water ? or does it have to be mixed with onr!?? And what is Onr ??? pls answer!
Just distilled water is just fine. I have a link to ONR in the description check it out. It’s a no rinse product for car washing and more.
why not just vinegar alone ? for more strength ?
Oops sorry..u r not using 1385
What is o&r?
Can you refill while using I didn’t understand or wait till it cool before refill incase you run out of water doing a job?
Have to wait until it fully cools down.
I've had this exact unit for about 1yr now. Although I've had absolutely NO problems with it, I was using regular tap well water in the beginning. I was trying to figure out how to get it apart and try to clean the insides of deposits that's definitely built up in there. Anyone have any info on how to do this? TIA
I have heard put some white vinegar in it “just a small amount then DI water, heat it and run it through.
is it normal for water to spit out when it heats up
Yes it is. Should Clear up though after a few seconds
Thank you for the video. So you use ONR to prevent the smell?
Nice video.i have one it does the work I love it . quick question what kind generator will you recommend please
Enrique Portillo I have done a lot of research on generators but haven’t pulled the trigger on one. In my opinion it matters a lot on what you plan on running with it. A Honda 2200i “$999” is fantastic if you only plan on using one thing at a time and if you want more power go with the Honda 3000 “ about $1999” or Predator 3000 which is at harbor freight “$799” with a few modifications the Predator would be able to keep up with the Honda. There’s tons of videos on different generators. Hope this helps.
Thank you ! Jus got one
I bet fibretape would hold the hose together. With that much heat passing through, all adhesives will start to melt
Good Information- thank you!
Your welcome.
Do you have to turn it off when it goes to the green ? Or keep it on the whole process till your doing using it ? I think I seen you switch the thing to off lol
Keep on the whole time until your done.
Great review. What is it you have all your accessarys into. Looks like some kind of a bag for the back of a car or SUV or someting. Tia.
It’s just what it came with. Thanks for watching.
this was so good - he discusses every issue for the total beginner ... thank you so much.
Your very welcome thanks for watching
My steamer seems to spit water along with steam. Is that normal?
I trying using mine but steam wasn’t very hot. How hot is it meant to be?
It looks like the steamer should be filled about 3/4's full instead of topped off. It also seems like the steamer needs to be allowed to heat until the pressure gauge indicates a higher pressure than was being demonstrated in this video in order to eliminate the more of the water discharge.. THE VIDEO WASN'T BORING AT ALL. VERY INSTRUCTIVE.
It gives a recommendation of filling the provided cup twice from empty. Also even letting it heat all the way up “which I believe I did in this video “ it still unfortunately has a lot of moisture.
@@AndysAutoCarePlus I measured the temperature at the tip of my 1385 gun and couldn't get more than 170 degrees from the nozzle. I sent it back and bought a Neat. It seems to spray a bit further and a few degrees hotter but both of these units are not powerhouses.
What is O&R? Also would you use this on automotive paint? I have tar spattered along my front corner panels, my wheel wells, along the bottom of my doors.

@@seankellogg6154 thank you
I think he means ONR, it's a cleaning solution.
U might not respond beacuse it’s been years but how much ONR do you put in one gallon of distilled water???
They recommend 1/2 oz per gallon I believe.
How much ONR you put?
Hey man so you definitely think using onr is worth it and cleans things better?
In this machine I would say yes.
I actually liked the video
Thanks for the intell. Did you know POULAN PRO is now selling the same unit under its trade name pretty cheaply next time you need a new one...exact same machine.
Didn’t know that! Good info.
Nice video I thought my unit was broken
How long did it take for the hose to break?
I believe looking back it took about 8 to 10 months but I was using it a lot.
My heat but when I press the trigger steam won't come out .
I would say contact McCulloch
Same.

What is O&R?
Does this unit lift up the dirt or does it just steam then you gotta use separate vacuum?
Do you ever have a problem with steam coming out of the pressure gauge?
Haven’t had that before.
Very helpful 👍
Awesome glad it helps.
O&R??? Can you please define acronyms you use?
ONR amzn.to/2Mz7Bag
What is o and r?
This right amzn.to/3PiJwlf
Will this your oven and bathroom hard to get areas. Also does this takes water spots from Windows
It’s fantastic for cleaning jobs! Won’t take away water spots though.
Could you explain to me what ONR is first time I've heard this term
It’s a rinseless wash product that I add to the water. ONR amzn.to/2Mz7Bag
We've been using this steamer as one part of a DIY bedbug fight. After the (roughly) fifteen-minute warn up, the steam kills bedbugs on contact up to 16 inches away. It’s been great for furniture, flooring, and sub- floors. I’d not heard of using a cleaner for the boiler, but that seems like great advise (keeping in mind your warning about the potentially strong odor.) so thanks for the review.
What is O and R??
amzn.to/3n8iyD1
I just got mine and steam is coming out of where the pressure gage is. I’m assuming that it’s defective? It’s now damaged the clear plastic screen that covers the gage? Thoughts?
That definitely doesn’t sound right. Get ahold of the manufacture they have a good customer service and should be able to replace it pretty quick like.
Looks like alot of water is also dripping out as well with the steam
True it’s a great entry level steamer but is fairly wet steam.
Yes I bought the smaller model and it's very wet steam it feels like alot of water comes out as I steam unless something is off
@@stevegarcia3174 what helped the water drip issue is putting a wash cloth over it with a rubber band
Great video. I am in the market for something...Thanks for dumbing down for me too.
ONR?
amzn.to/3QaIrh9
17 minutes...are you fucking kidding me... fill water wait and clean. Wtf did we watch for 17 minutes. You crazy
Wow calm down there bud why did you watch for the full 17 minutes if you didn’t want to 😂
@AndysAutoCarePlus you actually thought we watches 17 minutes... im willing to bet anyone who watched 17 minutes for steamer... and they lying to you. Bro next time 3-5 minutes tops
@AndysAutoCarePlus you actually thought we watches 17 minutes... im willing to bet anyone who watched 17 minutes for steamer... and they lying to you. Bro next time 3-5 minutes tops
Thank You for the video but what is ONR?
It’s this stuff amzn.to/3LoU9Cq
Did anyone ever have any problems with the the pieces fitting on to the hose because I do
I have not.
For mine it’s not extremely hot until you get like a inch close to the nozzle
But any further the steam isn’t very hot it’s just warm is that normal
Awesome job love the video I just got one and you help me out a lot
Thanks man just trying to help.
@@AndysAutoCarePlus good man Andy
what is onr
Can purified water be used as well ?
Hi
I have one and it just died. Looking to buy another , I noticed u have duck tape the end of hose.. I had to do that and with the heat it did not hold...?
For how much I used it it held up well.
2 cups of water fills the tank??
Yes
Thank you
Awesome video helped me out since i berly purchased one and berly came today :) for detailing cars thank you for uploading these video 👍
Your welcome!
Is this steamer safe to use on a fiberglass shower? Wondered if it would be too hot?
Should be fine, don’t let it sit in one spot for a long time and just use cation.
nice video!
Thank you!
What is O & R? Thanks!
How many ounces of water do you need to put in there
It comes with a measuring cup you fill it up twice
Oh yeah I burned the shit out of myself with this a couple years ago. I’m just now getting the thing back out to use. So I am here to be sure I’m doing it right this time lol
Where does the water go
What is onr ?
Sorry Andy but could you please advise what it was that you were saying that you add to the distilled water?
Stupid question...what is O & R?
ONR is a rinseless wash product that can be used for lots of other applications.
I Googled o&r but did not find anything. What is it?
Check it out. ONR amzn.to/2Mz7Bag
whats o and r?
I can’t tell where to put the knob, it doesn’t show where that plus sign should be to heat it on high.. and it is taking awhile to heat
such a humble spirit
Can. I unplug it and take it outside for use after boiling???
On this yes you can!
@@AndysAutoCarePlus thanks
I use to use an $8000 commercial steamer to detail cars even with those ones you still have to hold the trigger to bleed out with water before use its normal
Wow what kind is it? Ya every time I fill it! Lol
@@AndysAutoCarePlus I forget the name but its a huge diesel one it was amazing for cleaning i picked up the 1385 while it is nice to have steam these portable units wont have nearly enough power to fully clean a car using just steam but again $300 vs $8000 and mobility
was thinking of getting this and also using a 5hp ridgid wet vac to clean carpets and seats...along with brushing and cleaners of coarse... do you think this way will clean and dry as fast as a good extractor? thanks for the review..
It will definitely do a good job and if your not putting out as much water as a extractor then it probably won’t be that wet afterwards. Sounds like a good plan.
@@AndysAutoCarePlus thanks ...i had my own boat detailing business for 10 years,but i'm 61 now and i am going to try to give cars a try... i have done a few,but having the right plan, tools,products and know how makes the difference...everyone has a car or two...plus i am an expert at wetsanding and buffing already...i have been watching many auto detail videos ...learned a lot of tricks over past 2 -3 weeks... thanks again
Thank you 😊
What in God's name is "ONR"??? Thanks!
ONR amzn.to/2Mz7Bag
Get to the damn point guy
Nice review bro 👍🏼👍🏼
Ralda’s Details Thanks man appreciation that!
Absolutely mediocre 😂performance 😮
Definitely not top tier but can get the job done.
What if I’m trying to do more than one car at a time..like 10-15
Or less 5 or 10 you know…?
The chief steamer is a great option as it has continuous fill.
What do I do with the net and where do I store the power chord?
What is O and R?
U talk to much for something simple
Lol
o&r mix ??
Exactly what is O & Mix
Just found it on older comments apparently it is a wash and wax. Not sure if shit is it a machine
I have this and I need to know my tem changes after I'm using it it cools and gets more to the green. I'm thinking about returning
If it’s not holding pressure definitely get ahold of them and see about getting a different one.
So much talking though.
Onde moro, não tem essa marca.
What o and r do u use
