Rowenta Handheld Steamer for Clothes, Pure Force 2in1 Steamer & Iron, 1875W, Vertical/Horizonal Steaming & Ironing, Lightweight, Auto-off, XL power, 1875 Watts, DR8822

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.

We love this product. It makes a big difference and does a great job removing wrinkles. Good size and holds a good amount of water. So far it has held up well.

Heat up time so quick. The steam it produces is incredible. Works like a dream when used for steaming clothes etc... I've purchased Rowenta before and the irons are really good but this is the best investment. The size is large and a bit on the heavier side but not to where I can't tolerate it.

I’ve had it for a few months and this is a very good steamer. I’m able to remove wrinkles quickly and easily. It’s light enough, doesn’t taken a lot of space to store, and given the settings work as intended, I’m able to get the job done with few passes. The boost mode produces a lot of steam which is great for some stubborn fabrics.I’ve also used it as an iron and because the ironing plate is small, I’ve noticed it works best with light fabric items. Thicker fabrics require extra time. I am considering getting a separate iron just because it would give me more ironing surface and heat control in general.I frequently end up not using the attachment. I didn’t add much value in my experience, so I don’t think it was worth paying extra for it. I’ve used it for vertical steaming and not so much for ironing as it rubs against the fabric and moves it out of place.Overall, I’m pleased with my purchase and I recommend.

I am very pleased with the quality of my new Rowenta Iron Steamer! The steamer is a great value for the price. I purchased it to steam a wedding dress and veil, a groom's linen suit, two mother of the bride's dresses, and four bridesmaids dresses. The steamer worked wonderfully to remove the wrinkles from the different types of fabrics of the various garments. This steamer heats up quickly, and the steam comes out abundantly. The steamer has three heat settings, but the water tank is on the small size and needs to be refilled often. The steamer is too big for travel, and it becomes heavy to hold after using it for a while. Overall, I recommend the Rowenta Iron Steamer!

Bought this for my wife who wanted one desperately! This unit works great and is very easy to use! Small unit so easily stored or convenient for travel! Fairly lightweight. Overall im glad I bought this one instead of a giant one with all the hoses and junk.

Steamer seems fine but after second use shot rusty water all over my white tee. Maybe this is normal. Jury is out on this one.

Excellent steamer for the home. It quickly released wrinkles and the heat up time is fast too! I would not consider this a travel steamer. It has a little weight to it (not heavy though) and it is well made. Very easy to use and doesn’t require distilled water.
