Best clothes steamer, Which one is worth buying?

[bozak]

I’m looking for a good clothes steamer and trying to narrow down my options. I mainly want something that works well on shirts, jackets, and trousers without taking too long to heat up. I’m considering:

Conair Handheld Garment Steamer for Clothes
https://www.amazon.com/Conair-Extreme-Handheld-Steamer-Champagne/dp/B07V91437Y/

Rowenta Handheld Steamer for Clothes
https://www.amazon.com/Rowenta-Capacity-Vertical-Horizontal-Lightweight/dp/B0CWPPXXPZ/

If you’ve used either of these, which one would you recommend? I’d like to hear what has worked well for others before buying.

Hi there, I do not have a ton of experience with steamers, but I suspect that you couldn’t go wrong with either. I purchased a cheaper Amazon option by the brand MASTEAM which looks to be discontinued. I reshaped a hat with it which worked excellently and then I gave it to my girlfriend. My girlfriend uses it for her clothing and dresses and she said it’s “Magic.” That Conair you shared the link to looks great.

I purchased the first of those 2 some time ago and didn't have much success with it...sorta just spit water out everywhere. As such, I'd probably try #2 first...still looking for a solid option myself

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. The comment about the Conair spitting water is actually useful to know, because that’s one of the things I’d really like to avoid. I’m mainly looking for something I can grab quickly to freshen up a shirt or trousers without having to deal with water spots afterward.

I’m still considering the Conair, but after reading these replies I’m leaning a little more toward the Rowenta. The ability to use it on different fabrics and in both vertical and horizontal positions sounds useful, especially for jackets and heavier clothing.

For those of you who have used the Rowenta, how is it with thicker fabrics? And does it heat up quickly enough for a quick touch-up before heading out? That’s probably the biggest deciding factor for me.
