Unlocking the Power of Steamers: Your Ultimate Guide

Are your friends raving about their trusty steamers, leaving you with burning questions before you decide to get one for yourself? Well, you've landed in the right spot. We're here to demystify how steamers work and unveil the incredible range of tasks they can tackle.

How Do Steamers Work?

At the heart of a standard handheld steamer lies a water tank that requires filling. The water from this tank makes its journey into a reservoir and eventually finds its way into the steamer's boiler. Here, the magic happens – the water is heated and transforms into steam, eagerly waiting to be released through the vents or openings. This mighty steam then weaves its way into fabrics, gently relaxing the fibers and making wrinkles disappear like magic.

How Hot Does a Steamer's Face Plate Get?

The temperature setting on a steamer can vary depending on the model you choose. For instance, the Steam Genie 2-in-1 boasts a faceplate that reaches a safe and effective 140 degrees. That's a temperature perfect for handling all ironable fabrics, ensuring your steamer is never too hot to handle.

Can Steamers Remove Odors?

Absolutely! Especially if your chosen steamer comes with a nifty scent attachment like the Steam Genie Aroma. Imagine customizing your fabrics with delightful scents – from a floral spring fragrance for your sofa to the crisp scent of clean linen for your clothes. Steamers not only make things wrinkle-free but also keep them smelling fresh.

Can Steamers Clean Clothes and Remove Bacteria?

You bet they can! Beyond ironing out the wrinkles, steamers can do double duty by cleaning your clothes. Take the Steam Genie Aroma, for instance; it's designed to wage war on up to 99.9% of bacteria in a mere 60 seconds*. So, not only will your clothes emerge beautifully crease-free, but they'll also be refreshingly clean.
