Top 10 home garment steamers

With the advent of the child, the question arose about choosing a steamer for clothes. I used to use an iron, now its use has become simply unsafe. Then the idea came to my mind: "Why not a steamer?" More comfortable. All that remains is to choose the best model. Today we will deal with this issue.

1st place - MIE Graze New

When I first saw the option, I thought - this is it. This is what I need: to fit well in my hand, to be small and not to get dirty. It turned out that this model also heats up quickly, and a hanger is given with it as a gift. Great, I'll take it. I read the reviews, they say that she quickly smoothes clothes. Let's see, I hope everything will be as they say.

Main pluses:

• compact;
• it is convenient to use;
• good ironing.

The main cons:

• no.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Manual
Power	1500 watts
Working hours	20 minutes
Brush attachment	Included
Max. steam supply	40 g / min
Anti-drip system	There is

Reviews

I dreamed for a long time and finally bought it. In my small apartment, there will definitely be a place for this option. Heats up very quickly. The design pleases, I recommend it to everyone! (Tatiana, Moscow).

2nd place - RUNZEL VAG-160 Plantag

Another interesting option, somewhat similar to the first. A distinctive feature is the large volume of the tank. But, as they say, the jet itself is rather weak. That is, it will be possible to smooth out ordinary cotton fabrics, but heavy ones, for example, linen, cannot. Better than an iron anyway. But since there are disadvantages, I will not take it.

Main pluses:

• heats up quickly;
• compact;
• weighs a little.

The main cons:

• steam jet power.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Manual
Power	1500 watts
Working hours	12 minutes
Brush attachment	Included
Max. steam supply	40 g / min
Anti-drip system	There is

Reviews

I don't know, maybe I got a defective product, the jet is weak. I'm just shocked. (Maria, Podolsk).

3rd place - MIE Piccolo

In principle, it processes light fabrics well, but cannot cope with heavy ones. If you do not need a complete replacement for the iron, this option may suit you. I need to be able to stroke absolutely everything. And this model finds a common language with tulle and children's things.

Main pluses:

• convenience;
• storage bag;
• weighs a little.

The main cons:

• steam jet power.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Manual
Power	1200 watts
Working hours	15 minutes
Brush attachment	Included
Max. steam supply	40 g / min
Automatic shutdown	There is

Reviews

I took it to iron the tulle in the country. The device coped with this task. You need to pour less than half of water, otherwise it starts to "spit". (Olga, Nizhny Novgorod).

4th place - RUNZEL VAG-170 LillaBaby

An elegant device that can work both vertically and horizontally. The cost is quite high, but justified. A big minus is a small water tank. That is, you have to add it all the time, which is extremely inconvenient for me.

Main pluses:

• compactness;
• ease;
• copes well with steaming.

The main cons:

• tank capacity.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Manual
Power	950 Wt
Working hours	8 minutes
Horizontal steaming	There is
Max. steam supply	35 g / min
Automatic shutdown	There is

Reviews

I bought it for business trips - I was not disappointed. Of course, it will be difficult for them to steam off heavy curtains, but the model will cope with other tasks completely. (Arina, Pyatigorsk).

5th place - RUNZEL PRO-290 AngaStark

An almost professional model that can handle all types of fabrics. It looks impressive, there are no complaints, but the price is not satisfied. In the future I intend to buy such an option, but for now I will take a cheaper one.

Main pluses:

• stable stand;
• large tank;
• beautiful appearance.

The main cons:

• price.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Floor
Power	2100 Wt
Working hours	180 minutes
Steam adjustment	There is
Max. steam supply	55 g / min
Automatic shutdown	There is

Reviews

All creases and wrinkles are smoothed out instantly, even on thick curtains. The result is excellent. (Galina, Mozhaisk).

6th place - RUNZEL MAX-230 Magica

Another chic option that handles all fabrics. Again, it is expensive. Among the shortcomings, one can also single out the fact that the hose is constantly kinking. And this also affects the quality of work. Despite the fact that the model is comfortable and beautiful, I will not take it.

Main pluses:

• beautiful;
• works well;
• large tank volume.

The main cons:

• weak hose.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Floor
Power	2100 Wt
Working hours	100 minutes
Steam adjustment	There is
Max. steam supply	50 g / min
Automatic shutdown	There is

Reviews

I have long wanted to buy myself such a device. Confused only by the price. I bought it and did not regret it: it copes with the tasks set perfectly. Five points. (Vadim, Yekaterinburg).

7th place - MIE Compatto

Of course, this option looks very attractive. It will be convenient to steam your clothes. The model copes with all types of fabrics. I don't like the fact that the mounts are made of plastic. In the reviews they write that they often break. In addition, the board is located low - if the height is less than 170, it will be normal, more - uncomfortable. The price is high with so many drawbacks. I won't take it, although the idea with the board is not bad.

Main pluses:

• compact;
• there is a board;
• functions well.

The main cons:

• the board is rather low.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Floor
Power	1100 Wt
Working hours	35 mins
Horizontal steaming	There is
Max. steam supply	80 g / min
Weight	9.4 kg

Reviews

I was happy for six months until the mountings broke. Here's what to say here - is it really impossible to come up with something more reliable. Now there is a renovation to be done. (Anton, St. Petersburg).

8th place - RUNZEL VAG-190 Hoga

Of the budget options, I liked such a device. Comfortable grip, operating time as much as 20 minutes is not bad. But the steam feed rate let us down. And so not bad, especially since the device weighs a little - even 1 kg will not be typed. I will not take it, because it will definitely not cope with heavy fabrics.

Main pluses:

• easy;
• heats up quickly;
• There is a LOCK & WORK system (activation of the working mode).

The main cons:

• power.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Manual
Power	900 watts
Working hours	20 minutes
Water shortage shutdown	There is
Max. steam supply	25 g / min
Weight	0.8 kg

Reviews

While working, everything was fine. But suddenly the steam supply lock broke. Now you have to hold this button on your own - it's inconvenient. (Alina, Nikolaev).

9th place - Philips GC552 / 40 ComfortTouch

It looks very elegant. Provides steam evenly, does not "spit" with water. There is a special nozzle included to handle the coat. I do not like the small volume of the tank: if you handle large things, you will have to top up the water. And it was also revealed that when you turn the regulator, nothing really changes, maybe this is how it should be, who knows. I think that for this amount you can find a better option.

Main pluses:

• beautiful;
• reliable hanger;
• powerful steam.

The main cons:

• volume of the tank.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Outdoor
Power	1800 watts
Water heating time	60 sec
Steam hose length	1.3 m
Max. steam supply	35 g / min
Power cord length	1.6 m

Reviews

Cool model, heats up quickly, the hanger is comfortable. I would like the water tank to be bigger, but that's okay (Svetlana, Mytishchi).

10th place - Xiaomi GT-301W

Judging by the reviews, this model has a very high-quality assembly. Another advantage is the possibility of both vertical and horizontal steaming. However, there are drawbacks - an adapter will be needed for the plug. The steam jet is weak. In general, the model is convenient, but, for example, for travel, it is better to take something more powerful into the house.

Main pluses:

• convenient;
• there is a brush for cleaning;
• beautiful.

The main cons:

• not suitable for dense things.

Characteristics:

Construction type	Outdoor
Power	1800 watts
Water heating time	60 sec
Steam hose length	1.3 m
Max. steam supply	35 g / min
Power cord length	1.6 m

Reviews

In comparison with an iron, the option is just fine - very convenient. I like the high-quality assembly. I do not like that the steaming process takes a long time. The device cannot cope with strong creases. And in general it is good. (Stephanie, Nizhny Novgorod).

Conclusion

So, I bought the device after all, the best one. Like. And we are talking about MIE Graze New! Compact, convenient, does not get dirty, does not "spit" with water, works well. What else is needed for happiness?! And it costs quite inexpensively, and got a hanger as a gift. How I used to live without him - I don't know. There is no desire to touch the iron now.
