The Electromagnetic Mineral Crystallization Chamber (EMC²) is a powerful magnetically charged filter inside the VIVA E40. EMC² converts the molecular structure of larger minerals found in tap water (like calcium) into smaller crystallized molecules. By crystallizing the molecular structure, calcium and magnesium minerals are rendered smaller and lighter. This allows the minerals to float on the surface of the water in the tank rather than sink to the bottom as sediment. As such, there is no scale build up in the machine. In fact not only is the life of the machine extended, but steam containing crystallized minerals much like soft water leaves no residue. This is an even more effective method of sanitizing surfaces than that of steam generated without the use of EMC².
Benefits of owning a steam cleaner in your home or office:
- Chemical-Free Cleaning: You only use water to clean your home and does not contain harmful chemicals that many standard household cleansers on the shelves contain. You eliminate chemical residues and provide a safer home and environment for you and your family.
- Eliminates Bacteria, Viruses, Dust Mites, Mold and other Allergens: The heat of the steam penetrates the pores of the material being cleaned and instantly kills dust mites, viruses, molds, fungi, bacteria and other hazardous pathogens. This significantly improves indoor air quality reducing the possibility of having allergies, asthma, irritations and infections. Using a steam cleaner is a great way to keep everyone in your home healthy.
- The Power of Steam: You no longer have to use messy buckets, sponges and scrubbing methods to thoroughly clean. The Reliable steam cleaners provide powerful, high heat steam that deodorizes, sanitizes and deep cleans any debris, grout, grease, etc quickly and effectively. The included attachments make any cleaning task a breeze. From bathrooms to kitchens, tile floors, countertops, carpeting, upholstery, windows, inside of cars, grills, large surface areas, tight corners and much more. We also have found a steam cleaner to be a great way to keep your kid's toys free from germs and chemicals after a play date.
- Spend Less on Cleaning Supplies: Can't decide on lemon, pine or lavender scent while at the store? With a Reliable steam cleaner you will never need glass sparkler, oven cleaner, degreaser, mold buster or any other cleansers that seem to be never-ending when you enter the cleaning aisle. This also means no more cluttered cabinet filled with cleaning supplies. Just imagine the amount of money and space you will save over the years when you use the Reliable steam cleaner!

Reliable has certainly improved with its steam cleaning ability and has introduced the fun and stylish VIVA E40. Simply put, this machine cleaned like a dream! Over time my home was building up grime, dust and dirt and was in need of a deep clean. I’ve tried traditional household cleaners, multiple lower-end steam cleaners and lots of elbow grease but certain areas, such as the tile in the bathroom, just weren't getting that sparkling clean needed for a healthier environment. So I was excited to take the VIVA E40 home and put it to the test – and let me state that I wasn't expecting different results compared to my hard labor and normal cleaning routines. Within the first 10 minutes of using the VIVA E40, I was completely floored and quickly realized that I will never go back to my usual cleaning methods. Here are some of the results.
Pluses:
- Not only does the VIVA E40 feature a fun, eye-catching design and color, this is a machine which also has a sturdy and durable construction that can withstand much abuse when moving throughout the home.
- The VIVA E40 was also lightweight (particularly when not filled with water) and had a well-built carry handle, which made it fairly easy to carry from room to room.
- Compared to some of the lower-end steam cleaners, the Reliable VIVA includes high-quality and sturdy attachments that I found very easy to detach and attach. Plus this model comes with a bonus 7-piece accessory set for added versatility!
- It includes a unique filling bottle that made it extremely easy to fill up the tank - there was no spilling or mess at all!
- While cleaning throughout the home, I was impressed with how well the VIVA was able to maintain a consistent temperature and pressure. I was able to steam away for longer periods compared to the lower-end steam cleaners I've used in the past.
- Cleaning the bathroom has never been easier! I used a variety of attachments to tackle tile, grout, soap scum and sinks.
- First I used the angle adaptor (which had a nice brass tip) and nylon brush to blast away all that grime and dirt in between the tiles and along the edges of the walls and bathtub. The results were astounding and my tile and grout shined like never before – and without bleach! I was able to get into those deep crevices and tight corners with such ease. And best of all it only took a few minutes to complete the job.
- The soap scum in the bathtub, especially on the sides, was building up for over time. I've used bleach in the past and never enjoyed how it took a day or two for the lingering chemical smell and feel to pass. I also didn't enjoy having to get on my hands and knees to constantly scrub and scrub. I used the large nylon brush that was included in the 7-piece bonus accessory set and started to see what the VIVA could accomplish. With the high temperature steam and a little scrub action the soap scum disappeared with such ease. No more back-breaking work and chemicals!
- I wanted to touch up on the sinks which began to collect toothpaste and drip marks. The nylon brush once again made this job a breeze. I steamed away the build-up and then wiped everything over with the towel. Everything was spotless in a matter of minutes and since this steam cleaner has the ability to emit a high temperature steam of at least 245°F I felt ensured that everything was germ free.
- With the bathroom completed, I then proceeded into the kitchen to see what can be done on my cabinets. I used the large triangular brush with the towel to smooth over the cabinets. Before starting, I did test out a small area to make sure there was no damage to the cabinets (we always suggest testing an area before steaming away). While steaming there were some areas that were left a little wet but I was able to go over and dry off with an extra towel. The stains from dirty fingers opening the cabinet doors were instantly gone and overall each cabinet stood out a little brighter.
- The large rectangular brush and towel made for quick cleaning on the kitchen floors. The towels are a good size and resilient enough to gather up dirt, stains and dust. Within one pass my floors were shiny and the kitchen smelled fresh and clean like never before. Plus it took only a minute or two for the floors to be completely dry.
- When steaming for longer periods of time, the pressure gauge let me know when I was able to get back to steaming. Overall, the VIVA was able to regain pressure very quickly and I rarely had to wait more than 1 minute to start back up with full steam. Additionally, the continuous-fill system allowed me to keep on going and going without ever running out of steam!
- I knew when I was running out of water and had to refill after I heard the convenient beeping sound.
Minuses:
- At first glance, it was tough to see if the green on/off button was glowing or not. I had to cover it with my hand to see if it was truly turned on or off.
- The window squeegee can be a little awkward when in use and may take some time getting used to.
- I wish there was an area on the unit where I can place some of the most frequently used attachments but this is understandable since it may compromise the compact size of the steam cleaner. However, I did find a canvas bag to store all of the attachments.
Summary:
This is a steam cleaner that is user-friendly and lightweight for those quick cleaning tasks but is also durable enough to take out once a month for some real deep and thorough cleaning. With features such as high temperature steam of 245°F, high quality stainless steel tank, continuous fill system and the multitude of exceptional accessories and attachments, the Reliable VIVA E40 is set an affordable price point. The VIVA E40 is the perfect companion for those who like to frequently clean the home and keep a healthier environment without the use of harsh and harmful chemicals.
