Steamer v iron

[WhisperingLoudly]

Does anyone use get their cleaner to use one of those steamer thingies rather than an iron?

Saw someone using one in a shop recently and results seemed impressive but maybe too much faff?!

Yes I have one, absolutely love it. I'm crap at ironing, even with the fancy steam generator iron, always managed to press random unwanted creases on stuff. This is so easy - just hang the clothes, glide over, no fiddling with frills or buttons or whatever. And you can use it on clothes you can't iron.

Only thing is that it gets quite steamy in the room, and the steam is constant - so you don't want to turn it on and only then start thinking about what to steam, would end up with a steam sauna.

And I know this could probably go in good house keeping but good ironing is the foundation of style
