First impression after unboxing
The moment I opened the handy garment steamer, this small white square box was much lighter than I thought. The official weight is 1.2kg, but it feels like holding a large bottle of mineral water. The design of the non-slip silicone pad at the bottom is very considerate. I tried to stand it on the edge of the hotel sink, and it didn't move at all. However, it should be noted that its water tank capacity is only 200ml, and heavy use may require water to be added halfway.
Survival test in the suitcase
When I stuffed it into the clothing compartment of the cabin, I found that the folding handle design helped a lot. I was originally worried that the protruding steam pipe would puncture other items, but the storage bag that came with it just stuck to the key part. Special reminder: Remember to take it out in advance during airport security check. I was delayed for five minutes last time when I was asked to go through the check alone.
Actual ironing experience
I ironed three shirts in the hotel. The preheating time was about 1 and a half minutes, and the steam volume was enough to deal with ordinary cotton clothes. But it was not up to the task when it came to silk dresses. Later I found out that I had to switch it to "silk mode". A small surprise is its automatic power-off function, which will not burn the entire towel rack if you forget to turn it off.
Details that designers didn't tell you
The 1.5-meter power cord is enough for hotel rooms, but you still need to use an extension cord when the socket is awkwardly located
The steam hole is prone to scale accumulation, so it is recommended to invert the body and spray for 10 seconds after each use to clean it
When used at night, the blue working indicator light will turn into the rhythm of late-night disco
Final purchase advice
For business people who often need to maintain a professional image and hate the inferior hotel ironing machines, this handy garment steamer is definitely worth investing in. But if you are a backpacker who pursues extreme lightness, you may need to weigh the carrying burden of it and the portable wrinkle removal spray.
