"The steamer is simple to use: plug it in, it heats quickly, and doesn't spit water. The water tank is generous enough to do a number of items before needing a refill," they added.
Another wrote: "Fantastic! Sturdy, portable and got a nice weight to it (doesn’t feel 'cheap'). Heats up super quick with no leakage.
"Steamers will never beat an iron in my opinion, however, this is fantastic at what it does - saves time and good result!".
