A handheld surface cleaning apparatus comprises a body including at least a rear compartment, a forward compartment and a top volume openly connected to the rear compartment. An elongate rotatable brush arrangement is positioned within and extends across the forward compartment. An electric motor assembly is positioned primarily in the rear compartment, with one or more components of the electric motor assembly residing in the top volume.

A device for generating and supplying steam is provided. The device has a body, a steam generation unit, a first side panel attached to the body, a second side panel attached to the body, a power cord attached to the steam generation unit, a supply hose for supplying the steam from the steam generation unit to a point of use of the steam, a first wrapping location formed between the body and the first side panel, and a second wrapping location formed between the body and the second side panel. The first wrapping location is for wrapping the power cord for storage, and the second wrapping location is for wrapping the supply hose for storage.

Steamer with wrapped cord and hose

A steam stop safety mechanism for a portable steam cleaner prevents discharge of steam at the cleaner nozzle when attaching and disconnecting attachments, even if the cleaner trigger is in a locked open position. The mechanism includes a steel pin that is displaced in an extended position against a shoulder in the nozzle to prevent pressurized steam from escaping the nozzle. Attachment couplings include a pin retractor plate with a central hub that pushes the pin away from the shoulder to allow the steam to flow through openings in the retractor plate and out a concentrator or attachment hose that has a trigger to release steam as desired.
