Review on 👕 Efficient and Portable OGHom Clothes Steamer: Handheld Garment Steamer with 240ml Capacity for Wrinkle-Free Clothes by Matt Abba

Revainrating 1 out of 5

UPDATE: DO NOT BUY - it's ok, good price.

Update: If you plan on steaming the delights, DO NOT BUY. A year later I can say. It is not worth. If you know how to use an iron, stick with it. Learning to use it is an acquired skill. It's so contradictory, no. I'm never sure if it's going to splatter big drops of water and mess up my delicates. If you're used to steaming delicate materials, large water droplets can completely ruin the texture. Especially if you do it right before getting dressed. Initially, I bought steam curtains. The water splashes didn't matter much because they were curtains. But I acknowledged the problem in my previous review. A year later this thing spits out more water every time, and no, I'm not overfilling. As you approach the fabric you run the risk of touching your head where water will form and/or splash. If you vape too far, it will take forever. It is not worth. It was often quicker to pull out my iron and steam the laundry with it. I bought it to deaden new curtains and to be honest I knew it was going to be a tough first job to test but oh well. It was fine considering they were heavy linen and very wrinkled. It took about two fills per panel. Enough to really notice the difference. I can definitely see it working well on clothes. Minor cons: takes some getting used to as the steam builds up around the nozzle and if you get too close to the fabric it will wet it. It's not a big deal, but if you don't have time to let it dry, it will annoy you. In addition, filling the maximum line will spray even larger drops. He even threw a giant beach ball at my panel from two inches away. It left a wet spot about six inches in diameter. It didn't bother me, but if I steamed a dress or shirt at the last minute, I got banned. In addition, the supplied brush was very difficult to remove. I put it on but the underwear was a bit tight because of the bristles so I tried to take it off. It was almost like it wasn't going to be removed. I broke my nail and spilled a cup of water while trying to cut it off with a knife. Ridiculous. In general I don't like it. But I don't hate either. Husband travels a lot for work so he figured if this doesn't work for the curtains he could use it for work as it's very cheap. Will update after the trip.

Pros
  • Good for many
Cons
  • Some trouble
