This steamer isn't perfect, but works good enough for most tasks. Great bang for the buck. I also used it to block my knitted items and it works like a charm.
It holds a good amount of water. It will sputter a little bit if the water accumulates in the hose. It's best to use the hanger and make sure the hose is completely straight, so any condensation flows back down. Give it a few minutes to heat up completely. If it sputters, hold the nozzle upright and shake gently to get the condensation to flow back down. I used this on delicate synthetic curtains and it was fast and easy to get the wrinkles out. It's also useful for straightening fabrics before sewing. I lay the fabric on my berber carpet and then steam horizontally. It's powerful enough to get strong creases out of 100% cotton quilting fabric. This is a LOT faster than ironing on a board!
It isn't a replacement for a real iron, though. I steamed some 100% linen pants and they turned out okay, but it's hard to hold the pants straight and steam at the same time. I was steaming them vertically. It might be easier to steam them horizontally.
I like how there is a place to wind the cord underneath. It is compact and stores easily in my closet. One downside is that the hose is hard to remove for water refill. It turns to one side, and then you pull it off. It takes quite a bit of force to pull it off.

hi, ok i get back again to update this review i'll rate the ironing for fabrics (from 10 while 10 is the higher): 1. cotton 10 2. silk 10 3. satin 10 4. jeans 10 5. some difficult fabrics (difficult even with ordinary iron) from 8 to 6 for using it with clothes i gave it (8 from 10) with T-shirts is easy but with other tall clothes not easy to use we have tall clothes like dresses it's difficult to steam it at once and it's really really really need the crease attachment i don't know why they didn't attache it with it :? u can't make some clothes in a good shape without i like: 1. good with most of popular fabrics. 2. don't burn the fabric at all. 3. 110 volt. 4. small, good for storing and traveling. 5. v.good and fast with cotton (like T-shirt). 6. u can iron while u r setting, no need to bend upon the ironing table. 7. no need to press the iron when ironing. 8. u can put some perfume with water that will make ur clothes smell lovely ^_^. i dislike: 1. the wire head is not suitable for my country, really it annoy me. 2. water tank is small, it took only 15 to 20 min of ironing. 3. when start boiling steam come into the tube and that make it heavier a little bit, and while u r working up and down or left to right ur hand will be hanging for a while, that will make harm little bit (as i said not v.heavy and not v.harm.. but a little) 4. steam is v.hot it could burn u, v.dangerous if children play with it. 5. when the steam start getting out the tube become hot, not v.hot, but hot enough to hurt u if it took a while in ur body. 6. clothes become little bit wet (a little), so u can't ware it immediately, it should take some time to dry (2-3 min.). 7. noisy. 8. u should plug it to the electrical port in the wall directly, don't use ext that will be v.dangerous. 9. that's V.IMPORTANT too u have to use bottled water, not water from tap, i used it once and that was disaster. general info: 1. it took between 1.30 to 2 min to be ready. 2. u should be v.aware for the water limit, don't full it more the max. line. 3. u full the water from the same hole that u should close well before ON the steamer. 4. when u open it be aware for the water in the tube, it will be hot. 5. don't put the steamer head at floor before it come cold, that will make hot water spill out. 6. becareful from throttle the steamer head or tube, it has a port for that situation, but u have to fix it quickly. 7. becareful for ur hands from steam. in my opinion it's good for personal use, coz u have to fill the tank each 15-20 min, that will be harm for many clothes like family clothes. i really like it, wish if it have crease attachment. and i'm thinking for buying one with that attachment :) u can see the pictures to compare the clothes before and after thanks for reading

5. some difficult fabrics (difficult even with ordinary iron) from 8 to 6

3. when start boiling steam come into the tube and that make it heavier a little bit, and while u r working up and down or left to right ur hand will be hanging for a while, that will make harm little bit (as i said not v.heavy and not v.harm.. but a little)
4. steam is v.hot it could burn u, v.dangerous if children play with it.
5. when the steam start getting out the tube become hot, not v.hot, but hot enough to hurt u if it took a while in ur body.
6. clothes become little bit wet (a little), so u can't ware it immediately, it should take some time to dry (2-3 min.).
7. noisy.
8. u should plug it to the electrical port in the wall directly, don't use ext that will be v.dangerous.
9. that's V.IMPORTANT too u have to use bottled water, not water from tap, i used it once and that was disaster.
