"Jiffy Steamer Esteam" personal travel clothes steamer
You're in your hotel room, finally, and you drag your folded/rolled/crumpled mess of a shirt/dress/suit out of the travel bag and hang it the closet hoping the wrinkles will miraculously fall away. Or maybe you are a crafty one, and you hang them in the bathroom to passively steam as you shower. The trouble is, neither method really works on a worthy wrinkle. I finally bought a travel steamer to smooth out this problem.
Jiffy Steamer Esteam personal travel clothes steamer.

Price: $69.99
I was tipped off to this steamer in a wardrobe book written by a stylist, someone who uses steamers on a regular basis for work. She had used several and swore by this one.
Pros:
- 800 watts of power baby!
- heats up instantly (under 2 minutes)
- simple to operate - put water in, plug in, steam clothes
- lightweight, compact
- very effective at getting rid of wrinkles
Cons:
- ugly, seriously utilitarian design
- small water chamber, must fill often if doing many clothes
- smaller nozzle than some, due to its small portable size
Sure you can get less expensive ones, but they won't work as well. Sure you can get ones that work better (bigger water chamber, bigger nozzle) but they won't be near as portable.
This is a portable travel gadget that gets an A from me. It just works. In fact it works so well, I use it all the time at home when something needs a touch up. It can't recreate a crease, but it does well on everything else.
