How to consider before choosing a garment steamer

• Type: gravity or pump

The steam supply system can be of two types. In a gravity flow device, the flow is generated in the lower compartment of the housing. From there, it independently rises to the hose, passes through it and exits in the nozzle. During this time, he manages to cool down a little, but still works effectively. The pump units are equipped with a valve that keeps the vapors in the boiler. As soon as they gain the required pressure, the valve opens. A strong stream processes the web more efficiently.

You need to know that the powerful flow in pump-action varieties is not stable. It is served for several minutes, then it takes time for the formation and accumulation of a new portion of vapor. A stable flow occurs in models combined with a steam cleaner . There, instead of a pump, a pump is used.

• Power

Determines the amount of supplied steam and the rate of heating of the water. It is clear that the higher this indicator, the more efficiently the equipment works. But electricity consumption is also growing. Professionals advise choosing 1400-1500 W devices for the care of fine textiles and knitwear. For dense cotton such as jeans or coat fabrics, 1800 W is chosen. If you intend to handle winter coats, you can take an even more powerful device.

• Pressure

The steam supply is determined by the pressure at which the jet leaves the nozzle. The weakest are gravity devices, it is better to choose pump pumps. The optimum working pressure is 3.5-5 bar. Sometimes the technical specifications indicate the force with which the flow is supplied. The average value is considered to be 37-40 ml / min. More powerful models deliver 55 ml / min. and higher.

• Modes of operation

Several operating modes can be provided for devices. In this case, they are equipped with switches to select the appropriate temperature setting. This is very convenient and guarantees the most efficient and at the same time gentle processing. Such models are more often bought for shops or ateliers, since their price is higher. Devices with one operating mode are quite suitable for domestic needs. Therefore, they are recommended for those who do not know how to choose a steamer for home use.

• Tank volume

The larger it is, the longer the unit works continuously. But at the same time, the volume and weight of the tank affect the size and weight of the case. A bulky device is inconvenient. Therefore, a tank with a capacity of 1.5 liters is considered optimal. This amount of water is sufficient for approximately two hours of operation. Another point is the quality of the poured water. Expensive appliances are equipped with filters , so tap water is suitable for them. Others require only purified distilled water for filling.

• Features of the nozzle

The lower part of the ironing nozzle can be plastic, metal or ceramic. The most unreliable option is plastic. An additional heater can be built into metal parts. This makes it possible to get rid of condensation. When choosing, take into account the number of holes for the exit of steam jets on the sole. There should be a lot of them.

Selection options before buying Garment Steamers

Let’s consider the main characteristics that will help you choose a steamer:

Power. This criterion characterizes the strength of the steam acting on the fabric. For example, a steamer with a power of 900 W is suitable for ironing tulle, but for a denser surface (curtains, curtains), an electrical appliance with a higher power (1500 W) should be chosen.

Volume of the tank. The time of continuous operation of the steamer depends on this indicator. To iron curtains, you should pay attention to equipment with a capacity of 1 – 2 liters.

Equipment. For example, the length of the telescopic rod. It is better to choose a steamer for curtains with a high bar, and when working with clothes, a low version is also suitable.

Additional functions. Some electrical appliances have many functions; several types of attachments are provided in the kit. There are models that work with the addition of detergents.

Rating

At present, the assortment of goods is regularly replenished; more powerful and modern novelties are replacing the old models. We suggest considering the rating of steamers. When choosing the best device, such parameters as price, quality and general characteristics played a great role.

How to choose a garment steamer for home use

Few people enjoy ironing linen. Most consider this household chores to be a duty that cannot be canceled. If the iron copes with bed and table textiles , then delicate and heavy fabrics give in to it with great difficulty. Tidying up coats, jackets, thin blouses and dresses takes an unreasonable amount of time and effort. But a garment steamer helps to cope with them – we will tell you how to choose such a unit for home.

What you need to know about your steamer

The equipment generates steam, which acts on the fibers of the fabric and gently straightens them. The temperature of the steam flow leaving the hose is on average 97-99 ° C. Despite this, it does not stretch or melt the thread, but gives it the desired shape. Simultaneously with smoothing, the textiles are disinfected and cleaned.

The device works effectively with materials of different composition and finish. It gives shape well to heavy drape, long-haired velvet and light organza. At the same time, it does not leave traces on the seams and areas that are glazed. The pile is not crushed, but, on the contrary, straightens out. Embroidery, sequins, lace, beads, beads and other decor are not damaged. Some models smooth fur well.
