What is the difference between the Hilife Clothes Steamer and competitors?

The Hilife Clothes Steamer stands out when compared to competing products because of its portability, strength, and compact size. Since it only weighs 1.7 pounds, it's easy to use and your arms won't be fatigued when you're done steaming your clothes, and it won't weigh down your suitcase or carry-on bag if you use it while traveling.

What design features of the Hilife Clothes Steamer will enhance the user's experience?

The long 9.2-foot cord is one of the Hilife Clothes Steamer's prominent features because it allows you flexibility about where you're going to steam your clothes.

What drawbacks of the Hilife Clothes Steamer should the user consider?

While the majority of buyers were happy with the Hilife Clothes Steamer's affordability, portability, and performance, there was one mild drawback mentioned by many users. While you're using the steamer, it can sputter and spit out tiny water droplets when the tank is less than half full, so if you're using it on delicate fabric, you should hold it back some to avoid water splotches.


FAQ

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

Can you use this clothes steamer on bed sheets?

You can use the Hilife Clothes Steamer to remove wrinkles from your bed sheets if you follow safety precautions. Before steaming, you should place the bedding on a hanger, folding it over if necessary because of its large size. If you try to steam the sheets while they are on your bed, you may get burned because if you tilt the steamer horizontally, the hot water will spill out. 

Does this clothes steamer make the clothes too wet to wear immediately?

Clothes steamers use moisture and heat to remove wrinkles. While the Hilife Clothes Steamer won't make your clothes soaking wet during the couple of minutes it takes to remove wrinkles, they will feel slightly damp when you're done steaming them. Ideally, you should steam your clothes for at least a couple of hours before you need to wear them so they have time to dry.

What type of water does this clothes steamer use?

Although the Hilife Clothes Steamer will technically work with any type of water, it's recommended that you use distilled water instead of tap water in it. If you use tap water and have hard water, you will start to see mineral deposits build up over time. That can negatively impact the lifespan of your clothes steamer or cause the steam output to decrease.


Final Thoughts

The Hilife Clothes Steamer is a great choice to use for removing clothing wrinkles at home or while traveling because it is lightweight and easy to use. It can be used on all types of fabrics and has a large enough tank for 15 minutes of continuous steaming.
