TefalOrigin Travel Handheld Steamer, Travel-Friendly, Foldable, Compact Design, No Ironing Board Needed, Reliable Steam Performance, 25-Second Heat-Up Time, Refreshing Steam Power, DT1034G0

This item is exactly as pictured. Well made and has a cute retro vibe to it. Yes the water tank is small but it heats up in no time at all so it doesn’t need to be larger. I can steam a whole maxi dress with one tank full. If I want to do another garment I just fill it up again and it takes only seconds to be ready. I actually like that it doesn’t store lots of water as it’s a pain having to empty out if there’s some left when you’re finished, like I had to do with my old one. The smaller tank makes this easily packable too as it lies flat. There is a knack to using this, what I do is hang the garment up on a coat hanger against my full length mirror (I bought a suction hook to hang it on) or the back of a door. It definitely works better when you have something behind the garment. I start with the sleeves every time, this seems to make it easier, you pull the sleeve taught with one hand and use the steamer with your dominant hand (I’m right handed so steamer in my right hand). I work from top to bottom and this seems to make it easier. Then I do the front top, then front bottom parts of the garments, paying attention to any button plackets or collars. If you pull the side seams out and go down them you get a nice finish. Once the front is done I flip it round and do the same on the back, then go back and go over any places I’ve missed. Takes maybe 5 mins to do a dress. Is it any better than ironing? This is fine for modern dress fabrics but if I was doing a formal shirt or a special occasion dress I would still use the iron and ironing board. You just don’t get the pristine crispness you do with the iron. For casual everyday garments it’s more than fine and means you don’t have to get the ironing board out and put it away again. I also keep one in my bedroom to give things a quick refresh if I’m wearing a second time between washes, or if they come out of the wardrobe a bit creased. It’s also really good for refreshing the cushions on the sofa after the cat has been laying on the backs and flattening them down. I give my suit jackets and my cashmere a steam before putting them away, as I don’t get them dry cleaned every time I wear them. Great for linen tops if you spray with a bit of laundry starch, let it dry then steam they stay nicer for longer. You can steam curtains while they are hanging up. I think this is a lot better than other hand steamers on the market I have tried many of them and with this one you have the reassurance of a known brand. I’m going to get one to keep at the office too.

I really like this handheld steamer. Easy to use, warms up fast and tank isn’t too big so you don’t really have to empty at the end of use. The only downside is it is advertised as a boobing remover as well and it doesn’t really do anything for bobbing which is a shame.

I absolutely hate ironing, but this steamer has been a game changer. It’s compact and easy to use, and it steams clothes really well. The water tank is quite small, but that’s expected with the size. Still, I’m genuinely impressed with the results. If you don’t want the hassle of ironing, this is a great alternative!

Great value and effective. Bought last minute to steam satin bridesmaids dress and great tool - quick to use and good steam capacity.

Sadly mine came used, the wrappers clearly were undone and redone, with someone else’s lint on the brush and house dust/debris on the cable.The price point is great given the quality and speed of this item. Given my most favourite super quality brand would be £150, which I can’t afford at all, I’m happy to stick with this.Speedy basic steamer, each tank refill last for one garment, brush works okay, light enough for my 10yo to practice doing their own “ironing”, shorter cable than others meaning lighter to travel with.

Compact and easy to use.

Good product, does what it should be. The watercontainer could be bigger though. After steaming 2 shirts the container is already empty. The only issue i had was minor. The button kept getting stuck every now and then. Keep in mind that it doesn't replace a real iron.Everything else was good or great.

Oh I love my steamer as I needed it to take the creases out of a dress I got for a wedding. The dress was rolled up and thrown in a bag and it was so creased. My steamer has worked wonders and there are no creases now. Would recommend. I bought new curtains and I have used the steamer to take out creases in them.
