FAQ

We've researched and answered some common questions that arise when consumers are shopping for clothes steamer.

Is the Conair Turbo Extreme Steam hand steamer electric or battery-powered?

The Conair Turbo Extreme is a corded electric device. It plugs into a standard 120V wall outlet via the 9’ cord. It can run for an unlimited amount of time; however, the 7.3-ounce water tank holds enough water for 15-20 minutes of continuous steam. It is dual voltage, but you will need an adapter.

Does the Conair Turbo Extreme Steam hand steamer turn off automatically?

The Conair Turbo Extreme does not have an auto-shutoff feature. Since there is no on/off switch, you must plug it in or unplug it to turn it on and off. The steamer will run continuously if left on; however, it will eventually run out of water in the reservoir. Leaving your steamer on for too long can damage the unit.

What kind of water should you use in the Conair Turbo Extreme Steam hand steamer?

The manufacturer recommends using only distilled water in the Conair Turbo Extreme. Although regular tap water will work, it contains minerals that can clog the pores of the hand steamer, causing device failure over time. Tap water can also “burn” and cause brown spotting on your fabric.
