    Hello, I plan to buy a steam cleaner. Mainly for cleaning joints, windows and tiles.
    On the Allegro I found quite cheap washers, e.g. some Maltec HDS3500W for PLN 129. I hear about this company for the first time and I wonder if it is worth paying extra to, for example, Karcher SC 1.020. I've never had a steam cleaner and I don't know what to choose.

    In my opinion, every product will do its job without much difference in the quality of work.
    The only detail is the higher price of the brand product and better availability of spare parts / accessories. As you know, nothing is eternal

    I bought a Karcher SC2 1020 a few days ago, I'm shocked at how well it cleans, the only drawback is the expensive tips and accessories.

    I am just curious how it cleans these cheaper washers from Allegro. I was looking for movies but I didn't find any.

    I also have SC1020 for several years. I haven't used it for a year and I can't unscrew the valve. I tried forcefully ... and now it turns (platiki mushroom). But the valve is not turned on :(
    How to fix it ?

    If you have a guarantee, take them to your place of purchase and let them worry.

    For several years ... that is long after the warranty. If it were that simple ... I would not write for an electrode.
    For now, I have the idea of destroying the tap, i.e. smashing the plastic casing of the tap to get to the metal parts on which I can divide a greater force. It may additionally flood WD40 thread ---- but will it flow there?
