| Customer Reviews: Good as New August 18, 2010 Paul (Los Angeles, CA) My mom has the old J-200 steamer, which gradually accumulated some buildup to the point that NOTHING was coming out of the hose. The hose was getting warm, but no steam.
I scoured the internet and tried the cheapest method I saw which was to use a mix of vinegar and water. I let that sit in the steamer for at least a week, with absolutely no results.
While trying to find an authorized service dealer, I ran across one in North Hollywood who walked me through some steps that I could try, and also suggested using this branded liquid cleaner which he mentioned would probably work a lot better than vinegar since it contained acid. I put in only about 1/4th of the bottle and let it sit overnight. The next morning, after rocking the liquid inside the unit back and forth, I noticed the clear liquid had turned into a deep brown hue, with a few chunks of sediment. Flushed it out with water, re-attached the hose, and plugged it in. A few seconds later, the familiar throaty gurgle roared into life and out came a puff of thick white steam.
This stuff works, people. Well, it did for me, and now I don't have to look like I crawled out of the dryer with my wrinkly shirts. :)
The stuff works! July 3, 2010 Downtick (miami) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have the Jiffy Travel Steamer, the Esteam machine. I had quite a bit of buildup on the bottom of the steamer. I tried vinegar/water over night. It loosened up some of it, but not much at all. I then bought some of this stuff. I checked after one hour and shook the steamer around with the solution inside to see if any of the calcium has come loose, but nothing. I then looked again after 2 hours. I finally started to see the calcium floating in the solution. They recommend emptying it after 2 hours, but I let it sit over night. If I emptied it after 2 hours, I would still have a lot of calcium buildup on the bottom. So leaving it sit overnight is a good idea. I uploaded before and after pictures of the steamer so you can see my results. I would have given it 5 stars, but it didn't get rid of it all, but about 90% of it which is fine with me. I think I will use distilled water in the future so as not to get this calcium buildup any more, at least when I use it at home. Buying a gallon of distilled water every now and then will be quite a bit cheaper than buying this solution every few months. Besides, I mostly use it at home anyway and When I do travel, I will just use tap water and try and dry it best I can afterwards. So if you have the buildup, I can honestly say that it does work!

Probably won't use the product. It takes quite a bit of product and time for cleaning if you follow the directions.
Bad Service - Good Product November 4, 2007 Tahiti Blossom (Mesa, AZ) 5 out of 241 found this review helpful
I purchased steam cleaner liquid for my steam cleaner. I specifically gave the correct address as house # 66 since everyone in our subdivision has the same address all items need to be sent to the correct house number. The package was delivered to the wrong house. It was delivered to house # 6. When I received a tracking number, I looked at the address & whoever processed had put house # 6 instead of house # 66.
I called & emailed Goodmans but nothing was done to rectify the situation. Many days later, house no. 6 brought my pkg over; otherwise, I would not have received my purchase & since so much time had elapsed since I bought the cleaner, I was wondering what had happened to it.
