Is there a difference between this model (steam 100) and another one selling here on amazon much cheaper with a model (steam100LHR)?

I really don't think I can help with this question. The only thing I can think of with a difference would be this one has all the attachments and the steam 100 lhr doesn't. So if you only want to use the product to steam floors, then the cheaper would probably be fine. The one with attachments, expands your cleaning options to other areas of the house.

I am not really familiar with the cheaper model. I can say that the unit that I have works very well. It is very accurate and dependable and I highly recommend it.

Overall I think it is great - the cord length, the length of time the steam last before water change...the steam is really hot and cleans really well - my only gripe is this is the third time we've had to replace the main mop head attachment. They need to modify their design so it does not break so easily. Oreck replaced the head once under warranty and the second time they wanted us to bring it in to a shop. Since my wife didnt want to do without the mop I just ordered another one - we figured $37 for the part plus shipping was better than doing without it. And guess what - the part is on back order. If it breaks again we're going to find a different mop and will not purchase an Oreck.

I did an online chat with Philips support asking this exact question (after being surprised that Google could not help me!). There is no difference between HTL9100 and HTL7180. They are just different model #'s for different regions. The HTL9100 is the UK model, and HTL7180 is the USA model. Apparently any Philips product with a "/F7" at the end of the model number is the USA region's model.

I don't believe there is any difference. The cheaper price is probably due to the high sales volume Amazon generates for them.

I think they are the same. I have had three Professional models since 1985, the last of which is still working just fine. I had to buy a second one last Fall and it is called Steam Setter. They are exactly the same except for color. The old ones were red and white, the new one is black and grey. They are both the very best answer to adding body to fine hair that lasts all day. I couldn't live without mine.

Apparently this is the latest model per my research before buying. You can also do a research for 2014 I bought this in 2013. Advise. Don't pay a lot of attention to the negative reviews. Rowenta is the best home product out there. If there are more positive reviews than negative, go with the positive. There are people out there who will complain about flowers in the Spring as long as there is someone who will listen. There is nothing wrong the power steam button. Trust me.

These are old posts but for completeness you can adjust the steam on the bar32. In fact it's the only knob on the machine. Honestly I don't think there is any difference besides the looks. I believe the bar32 is newer. Why would they go from a speak design and downgrade to a box design? Machine works great. Get a cheap burr for under 100 and you've got something to work with.

I would recommend the larger one if younwant it primarily for home use; I own a regular steamer for home use and am considering swapping it out for the regular Joy Mangano steamer because of my experience with the mini; ease of use, works great, easy to store...and to pack and the quality for the price! Btw...my mini does work just as good as my regular steamer only con is that the mini holds less water and it doesn't have any b attachments which may be helpful for certain fabrics. Also, I have tried other brands as a travel steamer...none were as good as this one!

To be honest I didn't notice much difference. I have 2 but cannot remember which model numbers are the 2 I purchased. One has the heating attachment and the other does not. The heat is the only difference between the 2 I have.

I don't know about the DW6080 and how it compares to the DW9280. If you are looking for strong steam - I recommend the DW9280. I love mine. The only drawback is it is a bit bulky. However, the amount of steam it produces cuts down on my ironing time.

Yes, it is. Only difference being the Oreck Steam-It All Purpose Steamwand comes with extra stuff. Not sure if it's worth the extra $ or not. If you are just using it for floors, it's a wonderful device. It just didn't preform too well with other things like grout cleaning. It was a real pain.

I don't know which model is the newest one, but I have the purple model, and I love it. It's a bit different and takes a while to get used to, but once you do, you'll love it too. I love the no- stick plate and the retractable cord. The steam feature works very well too. If you decide on this model, you will not be disappointed. Hope this helps.

I emailed DeLonghi customer service about this very issue, and the response was as follows: ------------ Dear Valued Customer Thank you for contacting Delonghi Customer Service. The differences between the two models are as follows: EC155 * Adjustable steam emmision * color-Black and Stainless BAR32 * color- Black and Silver Please let us know if we can be of any further assistance Sincerely Delonghi Customer Service ------------ It appears there's a cup space difference and possibly some other minor differences, but the DeLonghi rep suggested the only notable difference was adjustable steam emission. Personally, I like the look of the BAR32 more, but I might go with the EC155 anyway for the adjustable steam.

The steamer that amazon sent to me is the 1200watt, but I gues is better because the only diference is the time of heating, I mean if with 1200 I take 45seconds for steam, maybe with the 1600 you only need to wait 30 seconds, but once is steaming, you dont need those values anymore. I recomend less watts because will be less energy consumed,

Yes, this the same one. My wife is the one who did the research and found this model listed here on Amazon for a better price than other retailers. I'm very happy with it so far.
