Polti offers a very complete range of steam cleaners under the Vaporetto series. The SV450 Double comes with 13 attachments that allow it to clean different surfaces and convert into a handheld cleaner.
The Polti Vaporetto SV450 Double is not only quick to heat up, but also very efficient. It’s one of the few cleaners to remove all stains from our tests, and in a short amount of time. The possibility of transforming it into a “hand-held” cleaner in two stages and three movements is also very significant. In short, there is not much to complain about this steam cleaner, except perhaps that its cable does not offer it a wide field of action. For 149 €, the quality/price ratio of the Vaporetto SV450 Double is undoubtedly very good.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
With the SV220, Polti offers a versatile steam cleaner. Its portable format and its power variator allow it to strip all types of surfaces. It comes to the end of all the substances, and this, without wasting time. If its finishes and its tank could be improved, the SV220 is nonetheless a device that perfectly fulfills its sole mission: to clean. It is thus positioned as a serious competitor to the most advanced devices and risks overshadowing them thanks to its more aggressive price placement.
