Bissell SteamShot OmniReach

A: Thanks for asking! The BISSELL SteamShot OmniReach produces steam that reaches temperatures up to 212°F (100°C), which is the boiling point of water. This high-temperature steam helps sanitize and clean hard surfaces effectively without the need for harsh chemicals. Let us know if you’d like tips on how to use it best!

A: Hi Ava, great question! The SteamShot OmniReach holds about 6.6 ounces of water, which typically gives you around 10 to 12 minutes of continuous steam before needing a refill. We recommend using distilled water and allowing the machine to cool down before refilling.

A: Hi Sue, great question! The SteamShot OmniReach is best for sealed hard surfaces and tight spots, but it’s not designed for deep cleaning fabric or carpeted areas like those in a vehicle. If you're looking to deep clean upholstery or carpeted mats, a portable deep cleaner might be a better fit. Let us know if you'd like help choosing one!

A: Thanks for asking, Michelle! We don’t recommend using the SteamShot OmniReach to clean a car’s headliner. Steam can loosen adhesives and damage the delicate fabric typically used in headliners. It’s best to use a gentle upholstery cleaner and a soft brush or cloth for that area.

A: Yes, the BISSELL SteamShot OmniReach is designed to be used with distilled water. Using distilled water helps prevent mineral buildup, ensures optimal steam performance, and prolongs the life of the machine. Tap water can lead to clogging or reduced steam output over time. Be sure to measure carefully and avoid overfilling the tank.

A: Hi Nette. No, we don't suggest the BISSELL Steam Shot on mattresses. We always recommend consulting the mattress manufacturer for specific cleaning instructions.

A: Yes, the SteamShot OmniReach can be used to clean the rubber gasket on a washing machine. Its targeted steam and included detail tools are great for loosening grime and buildup in tight areas like that. Just be sure to wipe away any loosened debris with a cloth afterward.

A: Thanks for your question! The BISSELL SteamShot OmniReach produces high-temperature steam that can help kill bed bugs on contact when used properly. Steam is a chemical-free way to target bed bugs in cracks, crevices, and fabric surfaces. Just be sure to move the steamer slowly and hold it close to the surface to ensure effective heat penetration.
