Abstract

A steam-cleaning device (10) that enables a user to dispense a liquid, such as a cleaning fluid, soap or detergent while simultaneously steam-cleaning. The steam-cleaning device (10) having a handle (12), a connecting rod (14), and a cleaning head (16), whereby the connecting rod (14) and cleaning head (16) are connected by multiple joints and can be disassembled into several parts. A removable cap (40) can be removed to enable a user to add water and a liquid cleaner separately to the device. The cap (40) can be used as a measuring cup for the water and is sized to act in a predetermined ratio with the amount of cleaning liquid inserted into the cleaning liquid area. This allows for the cleaning liquid to run out at approximately the same time that the water in the reservoir (44) runs out.
