Conair GS4 Compact Fabric Steamer - Conair
Our price: $29.99
Very Good Value
Consider this product in the context of it being under $50 bucks! I would say it works about 80% as well as going to a dry cleaner and it paid for itself immediately because the shirts and pants I steamed on the first day would have cost much more at a dry cleaner. Based on that, what's to complain about?
Works perfect.
Came on time and works as described. Really convenient. A lot easier than using an iron, especially for college kids like me. Worth the $30
It is okay!
This is the second steamer that I bought. This one was cheaper and it is not as good as the more expensive model but it is okay. It does the job but it takes longer than the other one because it does not give off the same amount of steam.
It does everything it is supposed to do and if time is not an issue, I recommend it.
Other steamers are soooooo much better
I've used a lot of good steamers--this is not one of them.
1) Takes forever to heat up
2) Spits water
3) No place to put nozzle (get one with a vertical pole)
4) Hose too short
5) Calcifies after 1 use and no easy way to clean it.
I'm returning mine and getting a better one. You get what you pay for.
Works for the price
I wasn't expecting a pro piece of equipment when I ordered this, but rather, only something that would make ironing an easier task for me (hate it, can't-won't do it). Once you get the hang of it, this thing actually works well, however I wouldn't say steaming is faster or better than ironing, it's just different. Obviously, you can't do folds or crimps on trousers, but it does a great job on dresses/skirts/tops (specially ones with flowy, soft fabrics). In fact, one of the best uses I found for it is deodorizing long-stored "humid stinky" clothes: 5-10 min steaming on a formal gown washed 6 months ago was enough to wear it confidently to a last minute fancy event. By the way, all the "dangerous performance", steam burns, etc. commented on some reviews CAN be avoided handling the device with common sense and being faily careful the first times you use it. =)
