CHI Handheld Garment Steamer for Clothes, 2 Continuous Steam Modes, Full-Size 300 ml Capacity Water Tank, Ergonomic Handle, Vacation Essentials, 1600 Watts, 10’ Cord, Red (11590)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Love this for tackling wrinkled clothes anything from tee shirts to jeans and formal wear. I use distilled water to keep any calcium from building up. I purchased a cheap bbq sauce dispensor for use filling the tank up since my iron has a small opening to fill its tank. So the dispensor just sits ready in the laundry room to fill either this clothes steamer or other laundry items that require water. However the tank to refill on this steamer does easily turn right out of its base to fill by bottle or faucet. I really like the soft grip finish on this steamer and overall think it’s an attractive looking steamer. It does get VERY hot if you chose that setting and the only thing I would recommend besides distilled water with it is to make sure to unplug it once you’re finished with using it. I’ve discovered that even when I switch the lever to off it maintains the heat to be started quickly back up. That might be an operator error since I did not read the instructions and I’m pretty confident that it clearly states how to use it. I just didn’t take the time to read the instructions. Since purchasing it’s been working great with tons of use and has shown to be a great laundry go-to.Highly recommend.

I purchased this item at a bit of a premium price to some of its competitors due to its extra power and larger width, which tackles a larger surface area. The heat and steam are very impressive, even without using the max power setting. It easily takes the wrinkles out of thin fabrics. But what impressed me most was its ability to remove wrinkles from heavy cotton shirts and chinos. Wrinkles remove quickly. The water reservoir is big and lasts a very long time. I took the wrinkles out of a heavily wrinkled shirt and the reservoir was barely reduced. The reservoir is easy to fill and empty, and attaches easily to the bottom of the steamer.

Works great! Steamed thirty shirts my ex wife never ironed. The steamer did the trick, almost as good as ironing. Two design flaws in my estimation, water vessel is a little small for longer jobs and you cannot dry the interior of the water vessel by hand. Otherwise a great product for anything wrinkled.

I had one of those old Whirlpool vertical steamers that you zippered shut and walked away that was awesome, but it finally gave up the ghost. Anyone from Whirlpool reading this, bring that back please. I needed something so landed on this based on some other reviews. The instructions say this thing heats up and is ready to go in 12 seconds. Ok, whatever, I'm sure it's more like 30. Nope, they aren't lying. The red light will blink for about 10 seconds and she's ready to work. Pull the trigger button, let her gurgle for a second and you will have plentiful steam for about 30 minutes. There's a 'turbo' on this that blasts more steam when you need it. The cord is long, so you have freedom to move as you work. All in toll, it takes much less time to use this than to wait for the Whirlpool vertical steramer, but the vertical steamer would still also dry damp clothes- I still want you to bring it back Whirlpool.

After trying different steamers without success and having to return them because the water kept spilling all over the place, I finally came around this one. This was the best purchase ever, as it's super easy to use and does the job. I've been using it for a good while now and have had no issues at all.

This steamer is impressive. I just received it today and decided to try it out on some blouses. I purchased the blouses from Amazon and they came shrink wrapped with a million creases and fold lines. I tried washing and drying, using wrinkle releaser, my old steamer and nothing removed the creases. I thought I was stuck with three blouses I would never be able to wear. I had been thinking about a new steamer for a while, but kept reading that the one I had was the top rated. I did a little more digging and discovered that in some of the trials, the Chi actually squeezed out the highly ranked Conair. I decided to give it a try and I am so glad I did. It removed every fold line, crease, and wrinkle and now I have three new blouses that I love. I will update if something changes my mind, but for now if you are looking for a steamer you won't go wrong with this one.

I thought this would save me ironing and dry cleaning. I did not feel like it helped with the wrinkles as I expected it would. I did not send back but wish I had not purchased

Love this steamer. The water reservoir is easy to fill and also has a big enough opening so that it can dry out completely after being emptied. I like the easy to reach steam boost button, which stays turbo once pressed until you press it again and it goes back to regular steam. The on/off regular steam switch has a slide option that can be moved for continuous steaming, which is nice. The attachment brush works well and really helps to gently get the steam into the clothing fibers for things like a wool blazer or pants. Overall, I am very pleasantly surprised to like the steamer as much as I do and I think it is a very good value.
