Picked up a nearly new second hand machine the other day and i have to say i am really impressed with it. Fantastic build quality and performance!
This particular model has a mini V2 type in line heater which produces untouchable hot water from the tool within minutes... this little spotter will be perfect for removing candle wax and gum!

I'm sure Steve porter used one to clean upholstery with something like.

Ps waiting for a video on this I'm sure everyone will be interesting.

These are a great little machine Russ, I've had one for years. Like a full size HWE unit, you just need to make sure you don't let the waste tank get overfull with water or foam or you end up with dirty water being sprayed out the bottom of machine.

Hey Mark, yer the usual steps to reduce foam are always taken on all my machines, i especially like what Ashby's have done regarding the water "high level" cut off, simple but really effective.
I just cant get over how hot the water gets in such a short space of time

The V2 steam mate in the ninja is of the same design, but larger I assume.
You can have freezing cold water in tank, use the steam mate and within a few minutes,and I mean a few you minutes you can have up to 110 degrees of heat.
Very impressive, and also consistent heat.

I also have a V2 and its considered to be the best in line heater on the market...
Once you have mastered the art of setting the right temp, pressure, and dry strokes... it works very well indeed

Well here you go Shaun... a short clip of the little machine in action!
Check out the steam from the upholstery tool towards the end of the clip... this spotter can create some serious heat when the water flow rate is reduced.
The chair featured in this clip was minging... lots of drink and food stains

Had the Steamate fitted to my machine when I
bought it.
It broke down once while in warranty so free repair.
It then packed in again after 13 months and was priced
at £180+ to repair.
I didn't bother and tbh I don't miss it as I have an in
tank heater.
It was good when it worked but I wouldn't have liked
to have used the handtool with it.

Can't see it on their website....

Oh yes I can...under mattress cleaning.
