Clothes rail for steaming

2 replies

Hello,
I have recently swapped my iron for a steamer and I love it.

Only problem is, that when I usually do the steaming in the bathroom, I either hang clothes on the shower rail or on the door. Too high on the shower rail so my arms ache after a while and awkward with it on the door as it may affect the paint.

There are many options out there but has anyone got a recommendation for a nice sturdy one please? Ideally with adjustable height?

TIA

Get a valet stand that’s meant for this kind of thing? If you get something that’s meant to be a clothes rail I don’t think it would stand up to wear and tear and the steam, might have a coating or finish as well that would make it worse. There’s some moisture resistant ones listed here, I can’t vouch for them and it might be an advertorial but might be good for ideas. helpwiththewashing.co.uk/tips/drying-ironing/best-valet-stands/

Thanks @BakeOffRewatch for the link. I think the cover might be more practical not to mention compact than a rail.
