The head of this steam cleaner looks bulky. Can it reach under the edges of the kitchen cabinets? Could you tell me the measurement of the pads? Thx.

The pads fit the base of the steamer so same size as listed in description. It goes under my cabinets' kickplate.

No, the head of the unit does NOT fit under cabinets. Furthermore, I would not recommend this unit at all - I had the steam cleaner for 8 months and the handle broke. The company never sent me a replacement handle despite my warranty still being effective. I called and called and was told the handle was in the mail. I noticed there are several other customers with this same problem. Don't buy the unit - save your money!

No,it will not get under cabinets and the measurement of the pad is 9x13. It does stream nice tho. I've had mine for 3months and works fine but it does seem pretty cheaply made.

no steam will go thru this pad so use that as your guide and consider the dimensions

I have not seen steam coming out however I still would not put it under a cabinet unless the cabinet is wood. I have those laminate cabinets and they peel from the heat of anything that is near them.

Carefully measure the plastic portion of the steamer which fits into the rectangle cleaning pad. I ordered one that was too small and I am now waiting for a new order to arrive to try them.

I agree with others. Get the bare floor attachment. I had one from my other Kenmore and it fit just fine. When lazy, I have used the carpet head to do my hardwood floors and it does an ok job, it is just so bulky it does not go around furniture very well.

The head is about 8 inches across. There is a cloth that attaches to head and steam comes through cloth. Works great, smooth glide.

Hello,I used the unit for few days and than put it aside.We could not use it because after installing it on the kitchen sink faucet there was not enough clearance to use pots and pans in the sink.Thank you!

I've only used the unit a couple of times and I know you can go over the edge a bit. I can often and have switched to a steamer which works just as well and is much easier to use. Amazon has several models.

Remember it's hot and wet at the end of the hose. It will drip. As long as you know this and take precautions, such as covering things that may be affected by water, steaming over appliances shouldn't be a problem. I have used it sparingly on painted drywall walls and haven't inadvertently removed any paint yet. Steam will loosen wallpaper and maybe whatever the finish is on your cabinets. Household cleaners are still my cleaning method of choice on delicate surfaces. Works great on real linoleum flooring.

Does not fit under my cabinets. Mine are about 16 to 16.5 inches (depending on where you measure - lol) in my 2006 house. Short by an inch or two. No need to dishwasher it. As folks say, a couple drops of soap + water on high for 30 seconds. Rinse and done. This thing is HUGE.

this is not wide it is compact. you control how much water goes on the carpet, I wouldnt do it when its heavily traveled but I put a fan on. its a good little cleaner.

I find that it does perfectly fine in corners. The pad is a solid rectangle and you just have to push the pad into the corner and it seems to get things. I'm very happy with my Bissell Steam Mop!

The width of the cleaning head is quite small. About 8-10 inches wide. It is not powered and only picks up the surface dirt, does not get below the surface on a carpet.

It just barely does NOT fit under my countertop. However, I still love it because of how well it works. (I have had it for three months now.)

Mine didn't affect the floor because I couldn't achieve enough steam. I ended up returning it.

Yep, it sure will. It is a pretty thick pad. Perhaps a little thicker than the pads you get with a steam mop. I am happy with my purchase.

The carpet head is a little less than 4", and the bare floor head is around 2". You can lay the handle almost completely flat. Works under all of my beds. There is one tool that comes with it. it is the skinny crevice hose adapter but it also comes with an attachement for the end of it with a small brush. Worked great for cleaning my ceiling fans, wood blinds and base boards. I've had the vacuum for about a month now. Use it every other day. 2600sqft house with 2 kid and a lab that sheds alot. Still working great. Used it for a week before I noticed it has different suction settings.LOL It starts on the medium setting. never needed more than that..With the dog hair, the canister need emptying almost every time. But its easy and my dog sheds like crazy..But so does my wife..LOL I'm still real happy with it. Time will tell, my last vacuum lasted about 3 years with the amount of use it gets here. It was a Bissell Pet clean upright vacuum. The handle broke in half on me.
