After one year of purchase and during the second summer season when I went to use it, I found that once again, just like last summer, it trips the circuit breaker when pressing the steam button. Last year I thought the electrical wiring of the house was to blame. This year it leaks much more water. Its use last year was for about 4 months, not daily. It was stored in its box for 8 months and now, with the first use, it has shown many problems. In general, though, it is not convenient, it doesn't do anything even moderately well.
