Correction – it’s an Earlex Steamaster.
I bought this sucker on ebay 2 months ago, used it for 1400 square of wallpaper in my new house, and now don’t see the need to keep it around.
It’s one of the big rental units, the same model the home despot here carries for rental – used but works great. I only have the large paddle not the small. Has a brand new pressure cap. I’ll send a pic if anyone likes.
I’m looking to get what I paid – about $100 – UPS shipping would also be about $30. Brand new they run about $400.
I was going to put it back on ebay but thought I would try here first

My husband removes wallpaper for a living, believe it or not,so maybe we should talk .We never used one , how does it work?what does the paddle do? We live in Fort Myers Fl. Where are you Susan http://www.homedecsewing.com
here's a link to the webpage for the manufacturer - I have the same one http://www.wallpaperstripper.com/features.htm
The paddle is the steamplate. You hold it against the wall, the steam loosens the wallpaper and paste, and you scrape it off.
I would imagine your husband probably has used one of these before -
If you click on my name in the post you will see my location - update your profile and the same will happen for you.
