Crem, thanks for the update on the MC steamer, as well as the info on Peak water.
Readers, I can onlt relate my experience with the MC1235 has been nothing short of every quality I want for a handheld record steam unit. The continous water re-fill , meaning you can refill without unpluging or cooling, the variable steam control (hi & Lo) provides options never before available for LP cleaning. Even the nozzels machined in brass surrounded by heatproof plastic give you three options all providing pinpoint accuracy & control. The unit works differently than the traditional water boilers currently available. The MC 1235 does not bring to boil the water in its holding tank(10oz.) . The water release trigger on the handel releases , injects a small precise shot of water into a micro-steaming tank that instantly creates a bloom of steam released 1-3 seconds later , lasting 3 seconds. The MC1235 does what water boilers can not, that is creating controlled measures of steam you control in intensity with a flip of a switch. For someone who fails to appreciate that process they could misunderstand that the trigger does not release steam as traditional water boilers . And lastly, the MC 1235 appears safer making steam only on demand.

As for quality control mine operated as advertised out of the box. I have contacted Top Innovations in the past . They always responded within a day & were helpful. As for Tvads post, It appears that the MC 1235 was either defective or failed to meet the requirements of some buyers.Such is life. The best to all.

Ho72, thank you.
Readers, I have been surprised to learn that the MC 1235 has not been as well received as traditional water boiler vs. instant steam makers . What I over-reached upon was the notion that to the novice steamer & others they would feel greater confort using MC 1235. That has not been the case . The traditional water boilers work perfectly & while the MC 1235 takes steaming to a new level , that is not exactly a confort to many. I make this admission so that newbees to steaming understand that water boilers such as the Walgreens Steam cleaners are also suited to record steam cleaning. What's important is having a clean water source; proper technique, the use of record cleaning fluids ,and a RCM should own one. More to come from other posters I'm sure.
My Perfection steamer seems on its last leg. VERY interested in reports from users of the MC1235 ... Please.

Doak: The MC 1235 contains many innovations . The power; 1300 watts, 10oz. water capacity, the unit is a instant steam maker , unlike traditional water boilers that depend on boiling all its contents. The MC 1235 injects water into a micro-chamber that creates a bloom of steam that you can control using a hi-lo switch located on the handel.The only draw back is that you only press the water injection trigger once , wait 2 seconds for a 2-3 second bloom of steam then trigger again. Holding down the trigger for more that a second is not recommended, it will splurt a tad. Since the water tank is not under pressure it can be refilled at any time no cooling off period. The accessories are pretty much standard ;however, the nozzels are machined with brass inserts that are substancial & accurate.
