And we’re not done extolling their virtues, yet. The steam’s high heat can kill bacteria, meaning your clothes are refreshed without turning to the washing machine or the dry cleaner. They’ll make light work of cleaning up the upholstery before the in-laws arrive, too. Let’s be realistic about this. There is likely never going to be a better way to get really deep wrinkles out of clothes other than by using an iron.

That’s probably where the trade-off comes in. Do you really want to spend long periods of time wresting with an ironing board and all of the palaver of ironing when you can get a very acceptable result with a steamer?

In my opinion, the results are pretty good. Often when ironing, I accidentally manage to make new creases and then need to iron them “out” again. This is not the case with this steamer. Just let the steam do the work. These powerful gadgets banish dishevelment in an instant, using steam to relax the fabric of your clothes. Consequently, any creases simply fall away. Their sorcery doesn’t end there – because the steamer’s plate never touches fabric directly, they are much safer to use than an iron on delicate textiles like linen. That’s no more scorch marks, then. Choose wisely and you won’t have to sacrifice your grooming routine on the go either – many are compact enough to fit comfortably into your suitcase so that your holiday wardrobe is just as pristine as your day-to-day. A couple more tank refills may be required if you’re steaming a few garments in one session, but that’s a small price to pay in our book.

How we test garment steamers

The product is in "Stand-by" mode ==> Press the "On-Off" button and wait until it stops flashing. I can see water leaks.If you plan on using your clothes steamer for one-off occasions or touch-ups, a smaller tank will suffice, ideally with a transparent casing so you know when to refill it.

Of course, the bigger the water tank, the longer your steamer will last. Transparent casing is handy for knowing when a refill is required. Look for a choice of steam settings if you’re likely to be steaming an array of fabrics, including more delicate silk, chiffon and velvet.

Go beyond creases

Setting yourself a budget will really help you to narrow down your search. It can also help you to avoid the slippery slope of buying a really expensive product that perhaps had advanced specifications that you didn’t need or couldn’t actually afford.
