 This steamer can really remove wrinkles from my shirts and t-shirts. It sometimes can reduce wrinkles only depending on the type of fabric. With less than 30 bucks, I'm satisfied with it. Of course, it cannot be compared with a regular iron. My apartment now doesn't have enough space to expand an ironing board so I have to use this steamer.
The only thing I don't like is it cannot hold much water so I have to refill water after ironing each shirt. However, with a travel-size steamer, other brands also have the similar water capacity.

One time I noticed a leak somewhere at the top part while steaming. It's too dangerous to continue to use. I had been using it for over one month so could not return for exchange. I contacted customer service and they offerred a replacement for me. That's great customer service!

I was looking for one of theses for a trip overseas that was not to big and easy to use. And it is both of these. For a size comparison you can see it is about the size of a water bottle.

Though it is perfect for travel you may have to refill it more than once per garment. So if you are doing multiple items it may be a pain to stop and refill. You will know when it's getting near the end because it will start spitting out hot water. Which can be dangerous so watch out, also when working on items make sure not to tilt it down because water will come out.

Pros:
- price,
- size,
- easy to use,
- ready to use in less than 2 mins,
- comes in carrying case,
The mitt is nice but I've never used it. I like to live dangerously. ;)

It does not do the same work as a iron. Which is silly to expect because it's not an iron. I like my collared work shirts to be ironed with some starch. So it's not comparable to this. But for a quick steam to get out wrinkles it is fantastic! And the short time frame it takes to do it is unbelievable.

The only thing to consider is, the smaller the product the more often you will have to stop and refill. So if you are using this for travel it is 100% worth because of the size. If this is to be used only in the house you may want a larger product to hold more water so you can do more items without stopping.

I love this product and definitely recommend it.

Love the steamer! It works great and fast! The only drawback that I can find is that it must be refilled rather frequently. However, if it held more water it might be too heavy. I think it's perfect. Curtains in picture were my first project! It look no time at all left side is after, right side is before.

I recently got rid of my old steamer because it was just too big and bulky for my small apartment. I purchased this steamer because of its small and portable size. I was skeptical because most reviews were from people who were given the product without paying for it, but I decided to buy anyway and figured I'd return it if didn't work as expected.

I'm very pleased with this product. I have used it a few times already and it works wonderfully. You cannot fill it all the way to the top, be mindful of the max fill line - any above that and it will spill water on your clothes. But otherwise it works very well, heats up quickly and steams powerfully. The water reservoir holds enough water to steam one extremely wrinkly long sleeve button down dress shirt at a time. Will see how it stands the test of time.

When I opened this I was thrilled. It came with a heat mitt, brush attachment, and carry bag. Unfortunately the plastic on the main body of the steamer had a hairline crack in it. I returned it and have not reordered it. I have decided to do some more research before trying my luck on this one again. Besides the crack it looked to be a nice steamer, but I was worried that the plastic was cheap or brittle and that I would have the same issue on a different one. I gave it three stars because I really did like the looks of it other than the cracked body and in fairness I didn't get to use it so I have no idea if it worked.

**ABOVE was my original 3 star review**

After I returned the steamer TaoTronics customer service contacted me to apologize that I received a damaged product. They quickly issued me a refund and offered to send me a new steamer free of charge. I have to say this is a first for me. Talk about superior customer service. I got my new steamer and it arrived in perfect condition this time. Yay!

I love this steamer. It is exactly what I was looking for. It is very compact, came with a travel case, heat mitt, and brush and it heats up super quick. I put distilled water in it and in about 1 minute in was just shooting out the steam. This thing was so efficient that when I had my shirt hung the steam was making the fabric move away. I am so impressed. I have a gigantic upright steamer and it doesn't have this kind of power.

I highly recommend giving this steamer a try. This company really stands by its products and that is refreshing.

. . . and it performed exactly as I needed it to. Whew!

When I received this LimoStudio 9 x 15 ft. Green Chromakey Muslin Backdrop Background Screen for Photo Video Studio, 3 x Backdrop Clamp, AGG1777 that I'd ordered from Amazon, it had some well-pressed wrinkles and creases throughout the screen from the folding required for packaging. What to do?

Ironing such a large piece of fabric was a daunting prospect. I first tried a wrinkle-relaxing product, thinking it and the way the screen is hanging from its supports when raised in the studio would do the trick. Nope. Total waste of money.

So, the next step to try is a hand-held steaming device. There are many available here on Amazon, and after pouring over reviews I opted for this one. Bingo. The green screen was quickly wrinkle-free.

This device is super simple in design. I had it up and running in three minutes out of the box. It removed wrinkles in the green screen fabric within seconds (!). The fabric of the screen is muslin (cotton), but the wrinkles were pretty sharply defined. I was delighted at how quickly they resolved into unwrinkled fabric.

For my purposes, the only drawback is the relatively small tank capacity - about one cup of water. The heating element makes this boil in about 90 seconds - about the same amount of time as a heating element you'd put into a mug of water for tea - and if you leave it on until the water is almost completely evaporated you'll have about four to five minutes of steam. Using this to dewrinkle clothing, I'd turn it off between garments to lengthen the time between recharges. From reading other reviews, I decided to use distilled water to avoid any mineral deposits on the fabric.

My wife loves it. She has some very lightweight shirts that she uses this for and it works like a charm. I have used it with success on a couple polo style shirts, but if you start getting into heavier weight t shirts, it starts to struggle. It will still do the job but takes about the same time as an iron so you're not gaining much. It hold enough water to steam 2 lightweight shirts or 1 thicker shirt before you have to refill. It fits great in a suitcase though! This is perfect for what I wanted, but just be sure you know what you're buying. Definitely recommend.

I can't believe I waited so long to buy myself a little steamer like this. I HATE ironing, and after many times of putting on a wrinkled blouse and hoping the wrinkles would just fall out while I do my makeup in a steamy bathroom, I realized I should probably get a steamer. This thing is way more powerful than I was expecting, heated up in just minutes, and all of the wrinkles were gone after one or two passes of the steamer in each area. My only regret is that I didn't buy one years ago!

I will warn you, it advises to NOT tip it, and keep in mind, it is filled with molten hot boiling water, so please be careful if you are a rushed mom getting ready for work, with little ones running around the house. I had to be very vigilant to make sure I put this out of reach after using, as the water remains VERY hot for quite some time. Be sure to unplug and put on a high shelf!

This things works really well! I got so tired of using an iron and thought I would give this a try. So much easier than an iron, so much less hassle and it totally takes the wrinkles out without burning your clothes! Highly recommend this product!

I had a travel clothes/fabric steamer once a long time ago and, frankly, hated it. But time marches on, products improve, and it was time to either purchase a new steam iron or revisit the idea of a clothes steamer. I decided to try the steamer since it struck me as being more convenient - if it got the wrinkles out, that is. And it did. I tested it using a corduroy shirt and then a polyester blend casual top. It was easy to use. The wrinkles were gone. I didn't have to worry about changing the heat setting. I still had water/steam left over. And the heat resistant mitt included just seemed to be the proverbial icing on the cake.
