5 Stars Good little steamer
I had read pretty much all the reviews of several steamers before purchasing this one. I was tempted to buy the Jiffy but couldn’t justify the $44 price tag as I’m not a frequent traveller and was only looking for a steamer to help me get through my pile of ironing quicker. I agree with other reviews – do not overfill the tank. I found that it still spit a small bit, but the fabric I was steaming was not delicate and the spots dried without a trace. It worked great on light cotton, denim and knits. Struggled a bit on the heavier cotton/twill pants but still got most of the wrinkles out. After I got the hang of it I found that I averaged 3 – 4 cotton shirts in one tankful of water. The instructions recommend using distilled water. Overall, I’m pleased. As another reviewer commented, nothing beats the crispness of an iron, but if you’re not looking for crisp and just want to look neat and unwrinkled this is a great product.
5 Stars great steamer!
This steamer works great; it’s compact and easy to take with me, and store away. It heats up quickly and releases wrinkles fast!
5 Stars SteamFast is an Excellent Compact Steamer
Hello – I am in no way related to the SteamFast company. I have owned two other travel/compact steamers:
Jiffy, which makes a very good steamer as well, however, it is more than twice the money and, although I had their compact steamer for at least six years, I didn’t use it very much (as I had their industrial steamer) and recently the heater unit on it broke. So I’m not sure that their quality is so good unless I got a lemon. Additionally, the Jiffy model is slightly larger than the SteamFast model.
The other model I used was a Franzus and the only thing better about this one was it’s size. As a steamer it doesn’t perform well at all.
The SteamFast Compact Fabric Steamer SF-435W does a very good job (just as good as Jiffy, if not better) at steaming out wrinkles – it has more steaming holes than Jiffy – (though if you want a super crisp look nothing replaces an iron), it’s price is great for the quality, and it’s a bit smaller than the Jiffy. I’d like to see them make this unit at least a couple of inches smaller but it’s still a great unit. In my opinion, this unit can be used at home (especially since home units are much more expensive and take up a lot of room) or for traveling. A very good product. I highly recommend it. (I also recommend using distilled or purified water in clothes steamers whenever possible as it will extend the life of the unit.)
4 Stars Great steamer for the price
We purchased the SteamFast steamer for work to steam out heavey creases on fabric tradeshow banners. Voila! It works great with a little time and effort. Make sure that you don’t fill the reservoir completely to the MAX fill line, as you need to give it a little “boiling” room. Highly recommended.
1 Star bad product
It just spews water in the vapor all the time, it just gets collected in the nozzle holes and drips down on your fabric, even if you put very little water in it. Also leaves stain no matter what type of water you use, distilled, drinking, ect. And it does in no way compare to and iron, there is not crispness to it. Just a product that has not been fully designed to work properly. I would not recommend it to anyone or ever buy one of these again.
