Customer Reviews: A Good Value  If you have a home project that involves stripping wallpaper, this is just what you need! It is easy to use, effective, and relatively inexpensive. It won’t stand up to heavy use, though. Our first unit broke down after being used weekly (mostly on Fridays/ Saturdays) seven months after we got it. We bought another one after trying to get the first one repaired under warranty– that’s been nearly impossible.
great!  I had been fighting with removing wallpaper in my home for 3 months. Ordered this in desperation and it has been a life saver! I just wish it had an optional smaller plate to get into tighter spots.
Well worth the investment!  After trying the gel stripper in one room there was no way I was ever going to use that method EVER again. I purchased this little steamer and the next room I tackled was super easy and went quickly. I scored the wallpaper with a utility knife and started steaming. There was no mess like there was with the gel and it left the walls in much better shape to prep for paint. ONE WORD OF CAUTION…Be sure to check your extension cord for the proper size indicated in the steamer instruction booklet. I used an orange outdoor cord but it wasn’t the correct size and I ended up frying the power cord to the steamer and had to call Wagner to replace it, which they did. The steamer gets very hot during use and will actually weld the power cord to your extension cord if the proper size is not used.
Wallpaper. Yuk!  This product is really great as an improvement over using liquid gels or solutions to remove wallpaper.
We did three walls with this in the time we did 1/2 wall using liquid removers.
You can’t go wrong using this wallpaper remover.
It saved my Sanity……  i had to remove a ton of really terrible wallpaper from a townhouse i just bought. The people who owned the place before me did weird stuff like papering over previous wallpaper, papering on top of thin paper backstock that had been pasted over semi gloss, etc. No rhyme or reason to how they did it - but this steamer took care of pretty much everything i had in the place. For more difficult layered paper, i sometimes had to steam off each layer (using the machine along with a paper tiger) but once i got the hang of it, the stuff came down pretty well - so well, my paint contractor told me i did a very good job of stripping the paper and prepping the walls (and this guy has seen it all), which i did to cut down on the expense of having to pay people to do this otherwise tedious task. The steamer takes 20 min or so to boil/steam once you plug it in (so i spent the time doing other prep work) but once steaming, it ran for around 70 min or so on one filling - enough to definitely make significant progress in each room. Renovating any house/townhouse WILL be a money pit, but there’s NO QUESTION in my mind that this may be the best $50 or so i spent on this whole project. i have no idea how i would’ve gotten the stuff down otherwise (in relatively clean fashion).
