maybe you are not doing something right double check the directions for use

My daughter is the main one to use this iron, but I know there's a grey button on the left side of the handle that you need to press for steam. Don't tilt the iron upright and don't press the steam button too frequently. See if that helps. If not, I can get my daughter to write back.

If you have already filled the tank and installed it high enough as specified on the instructions, then you may be not opening the valve to the correct direction, wich is counterclockwise. Please let me know if it helps.

Hose is obstructed because of mineral powder that comes with the Iron, we managed to blow the hose; we chose not to use the mineral; water only

well make sure it is filled with the dimeneralizer, and turn the knob to allow the water to flow thru the tube and press the red button.you may have not turned the knob enough to allow water flow. also the water container needs to be elevated about 3 to 4 feet above to allow the water to flow through the tube.

make sure water nozzle is on all the way (knob on water bottle) and let heat up all the way.

Also, there is a little knob that lets the water in the tube that might be turned off.

I had the same concern, as I expected the iron to steam and outperform the Rowenta Iron that it was to replace. I was informed by the person who in fact recommended it to me that it only produces steam when the trigger is press. I am disappointed with the product overall since I expected a steam iron.

You should not have steam coming out of the pressure valve once it is up to pressure. Sometimes a little steam will come out until the pressure seals. Make sure you have the pressure valve is in the correct position.

The button needs to be held pressed in order to produce steam. It's not an immediate response; you have to hold it down, then a few seconds later steam comes out. It tends to work in bursts, so be careful.

No, Let it get hot enough for the light to go on and as long as there is enough pressure the steam will keep coming. Maybe you have a defective one. Do as the directions tell you.

Be sure you have reached the correct temperature for steam before using iron. And if this is not the issue I would contact manufacturer

I'm glad you asked about steam...No it doesn't make hardly any steam at all - and for the person who said it doesn't pour fast enough, just push the button silly!

no steam. Yes, has auto shut off. In fact it will surprise me sometimes in the middle of project but heats bk up very quickly.

I believe that all coffee makers will produce some steam. I have owned this unit since November and have had none of these issues . I find this to be an excellent coffee maker. I believe that as long as one reads and follows the operating instructions it will serve you well! I have owned many very expensive coffee makers and I prefer this unit to them all.

I didn't see the steam vapors from the vent, either. However, the water in the tank is vaporized. The light is only on when it needs to be replaced, I think.

If you mean no luck = no steam, check the hole in the bottom of the unit to see if it is even open. Mine was sealed shut with some type of plastic. I took a very small drill bit and with hand turning only (I did not put it into an electric drill) I was able to drill out the plastic and open the hole. Then my steamer began to steam. If water cannot get into the hole, steam cannot be made. I too owned a Caruso and this one works the same. The rollers steam up in seconds and by the time I have put one into my hair the next one is ready. I hope you are able to get yours to work!

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly. I've had this issue and cap was not on correctly which did not allow for steam buildup.

It does, but I wasn't smart enough to make it work. It spit water, not steam. It's now in my basement waiting a yard sale.

Think of this as a high pressure water jet. It shoots steam and you have to wipe it up. This isn't a steamer/vac combo.

I found it takes a minute or two to get hot enough to produce visible steam when on "high" (all 3 lights lit). Since we've only used it on tile floors its always been used on the hottest setting. On the lowest setting I don't think it is designed to generate steam

I put 3/4 full of water and it takes no more than 1 minute to steam up. The problem with my machine is that it didn't hold the steam for too long. While plug in the socket. I will purchase another one. Because while the steam was working it cleaned my shower and bathroom perfectly. So don't anyone feel that this product won't work, it's just that I may have had a defective machine

You need to make sure the air slit is not wet at all.. if it has any moisture in it the steam won't come out of the top.. the slit is different than where the steam comes out of, its under the top and on a side. Wipe it really well and assemble and try again.

run water thru a couple of times when you first get it and make sure you are using distilled water. Wait till completely heated and a good stream of steam is coming out before placing infront of a client. Try using the ozone for a fuller stream of steam. I haven't had any problem with mine Check all conection are tight.
