Ditching Irons for Good: My Game-Changing Steamer
summarizeEditor's Summary
I used to hate ironing, but this steamer has been a total game-changer. It's super compact, heats up in 15 seconds, and gets the job done without making a mess. The instruction manual is super detailed, which is great, but I did notice it mentioned a carrying case that wasn't included. All in all, it's a solid choice for anyone looking to ditch their iron.

I'll be the first to admit it: ironing has always been a total pain in the neck for me. So, I decided to give a steamer a shot.
The Tefal steamer has been a total steal for the price - it's like they're giving you a ton of value for your money. The box comes with the steamer, a brush, and a super detailed instruction manual that even mentions a carrying case, but I couldn't find it in the box. Either it's missing or it's just not included.
The instruction manual is so detailed, it's almost like they're trying to make sure you don't mess anything up. But hey, a little extra guidance never hurts, right?Here are the steamer's key features:
1) The steamer is super compact, measuring 30 * 18.4 * 10.6 cm (W*H*D), making it perfect for packing in a suitcase. I love that it's so portable!
2) It heats up in just 15 seconds. To get started, you need to flip the switch to the 'on' position and hold down the button. To keep steaming, you just need to keep holding the button. It's pretty straightforward, but I did have to read the manual a few times to get the hang of it.
3) The steamer only does vertical steaming, but you can also steam things in a slightly horizontal position. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning.
4) The water tank is removable and has a capacity of 70 ml. At first, I thought it was small, but I could only steam two t-shirts at a time. And honestly, if the tank were bigger, my hands would get wet and the water would stagnate. It's a good thing it's not too big, or it'd be a real pain to use.
5) The steam output is 20 mg/min, which is perfect for cotton and synthetic fabrics. I've been using it on all my clothes, and it's worked like a charm.
6) The steamer comes with a brush attachment that's supposed to smooth out wrinkles and collect lint. But after two uses, the bristles started to bend, and I didn't find it very useful. It's a bit of a letdown, but not a deal-breaker.
7) The power cord is really nice to the touch, thick, and has a sticky plug. It's 2.6 meters long, which is plenty long enough to reach from the wall to my steamer.
The steamer's main advantage is its ease of use - it freshens and disinfects clothes in no time. I've been using it for a week now, and I'm hooked.
I highly recommend testing the steamer on a cotton t-shirt. It's the perfect way to see how well it works, and it's a great way to get started with steaming.
The result is 10/10 - all wrinkles are gone, and it only took 3 minutes! I'm seriously impressed with how well it works.
If you want to get rid of wrinkles quickly and hassle-free, go for the steamer. But if you want to keep the wrinkles on your shirt or pants, a iron is the way to go.
