Rowenta Iron Steamer for Clothes, 3in1 Hand Held Steamers, Clothing Steamer, Ironing, Lint Remover, 7.1 Oz Tank, 1875 Watts, Auto-Off, Black & Copper, DR8855

Worked very well as a steam iron on my pants made from rough heavy material. The steamer is large and bulky for a handheld but I suppose it's because it can be used as a steamer iron also. It has an extremely large steam output on the high settings. The directions recommend using tap water because it contains minerals. Instructions state that using water without minerals such as distilled water and purified water can cause a low steam output and goes on to explain in detail why. My review is based on me being 1st time owner of a steamer.

I endorse this product. I have used it for two days to iron shirts, shorts, pants and even a dish towel (for practice). I also have a full size Rowenta Pro Style floor standing steamer and a conventional high end Rowenta iron. Compared to a conventional iron, the Pure Force hand held is much faster to use for anything with detail, such as shirts and pants. It takes me about 90 seconds to de-wrinkle a shirt with the Pure Force unit versus 5 minutes with a conventional iron. It heats up almost instantly, so it's practical to use it for just a single garment and then put it away. The Pure Force is also easier on your clothes especially if they have delicate fabric. However, a conventional iron does leave clothes a more "pressed" look. A conventional iron is also better if you like that creased look for your pants. I so zero advantage to the floor steamer. The hand held one is simply much better. One other comment. I saw a reviewer remark that the Pure Force is tiring to use, especially since the person reported that she had to squeeze the trigger the entire time she was steaming her laundry. This isn't true. The unit has a simple way to keep the steam on without constantly squeezing the trigger. Also, I did not find the unit to be overly heavy even when steaming a number of shirts. However, if you do find it heavy, use it horizontally on an ironing board, as you would for a conventional iron. It works great and still removes wrinkles very fast.

This steamer is amazing! I had a cheaper one for a few years, it would spit and leave water spots, it finally quite literally blew up so I needed a new one. I decided to spend a bit more money and I am just amazed at the difference! This steamer has multiple settings and I normally use the medium which works fine for most things. It heats up fast, and has a really big steamer plate that steams a larger area safely. It steamed so nicely and quickly, it only takes one pass with this one whereas before I had to go over and over areas to get them flattened. I am only taking off one star because it is quite heavy, not a big problem on a single item but if you are doing something big or multiple items you may need to give your hand a break. Other than that, it’s awesome!

This baby is easily the “Cadillac” of garment steamers, and I haven’t even used it on an actual garment yet! I purchased it because I’m swapping out all the Stone Age window treatments in my house for newer, better looking drapery, and nothing arrives more wrinkled in the mail than curtains/drapes that have made the trip on a slow boat from China. Typical Rowenta quality, well made and fairly heavy (2.95 lbs), despite being described as “lightweight” by the manufacturer. At 1,875 watts, it heats up within seconds, and has several heat settings: low, medium, high, super high, and boost, with super high being most effective on those wrinkled drapes from China. It works horizontally as well, so would make an excellent “2 for the price of 1” appliance; you really wouldn’t necessarily need a regular clothes iron if you don’t do that much ironing, but if you do, I’d recommend the next model up, which includes a microfiber attachment intended to capture lint and hair while you’re ironing your garments. Easy to use straight out of the box, no setup or assembly needed. Just add water to the reservoir and plug it in. Decent value as well, generally about what other manufacturers are charging for a garment steamer of similar quality and capability. Considerations: it does take up a little real estate at 11.8” L x 8.66” W x 6.69” H; and the water reservoir is a measly 7.1 oz., which gets used up pretty quickly when you’re steaming 7’ H x 52” W drapery. A big plus is the 8.5’ cord, which is especially handy in a Stone Age house with electrical outlets few and far between. Highly recommended!

Works well. Heats up well. Has different settings.

Easy to use, multi settings help make quick work. These polyester gowns steamed out quickly and easily. Got 6 done in less than 1 hour. Highly recommend this steamer. A little heavy but works great. Only spits water on high setting.

After comparing a number of garment steamers from different brands, I ultimately chose Rowenta and I’m very glad I did. Rowenta has been making garment care products for a long time, and that reputation for quality and reliability definitely shows here. The steamer feels well-made, heats up quickly, and does a great job smoothing wrinkles from shirts, suits, and other clothing. I also appreciated that it comes from an established company that stands behind its products with a warranty. Overall, it feels like a much more trustworthy and durable option than many of the newer brands on the market. Very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend it.

Good steamer if use it on appropriate materials. Doesn’t work pretty good on linen. Powerful but a bit heavy.

Wish I could give this a minus score. Have had this item assessed by two reputable electricians who both reported it to be dangerous and a fire hazard. Item is gauged for the USA and not UK market as they are both different wattage. DO NOT BUY

It's heavy, but not an issue for me with my dress shirts. Will save me on dry cleaning bills and time ironing.

I bought this Rowenta hand steamer and it only worked once. The plug is not compatible with standard outlets, and when I used an adapter, it immediately burned it. I tried two more adapters and even a power strip – all got fried. Now the steamer doesn’t turn on at all. Extremely disappointed and honestly concerned about the safety of this product. Used only once and it’s completely useless now.

Si buscas algo que te saque de un apuro o bien, quitarle las arrugas a las camisas después de la secadora, esta es la mejor opción

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING PURCHASE. I got this “fancy”’ steamer thinking it would perform great but instead it broke merely a month of usage. When it finally started working again after leaving it untouched, it stopped working correctly ever since. I had a cheap steamer before which lasted 2 years with no failure. Save your money and get something else.
