Rowenta Pure Force 2in1 Steamer & Iron: Powerful 1875 Watts, Vertical Steaming & Horizontal Ironing, Auto-off, XL Tank Capacity (7.1 Oz), Green Clothes Steamer DR8822

This baby is easily the “Cadillac” of garment steamers, and I haven’t even used it on an actual garment yet! I purchased it because I’m swapping out all the Stone Age window treatments in my house for newer, better looking drapery, and nothing arrives more wrinkled in the mail than curtains/drapes that have made the trip on a slow boat from China. Typical Rowenta quality, well made and fairly heavy (2.95 lbs), despite being described as “lightweight” by the manufacturer. At 1,875 watts, it heats up within seconds, and has several heat settings: low, medium, high, super high, and boost, with super high being most effective on those wrinkled drapes from China. It works horizontally as well, so would make an excellent “2 for the price of 1” appliance; you really wouldn’t necessarily need a regular clothes iron if you don’t do that much ironing, but if you do, I’d recommend the next model up, which includes a microfiber attachment intended to capture lint and hair while you’re ironing your garments. Easy to use straight out of the box, no setup or assembly needed. Just add water to the reservoir and plug it in. Decent value as well, generally about what other manufacturers are charging for a garment steamer of similar quality and capability. Considerations: it does take up a little real estate at 11.8” L x 8.66” W x 6.69” H; and the water reservoir is a measly 7.1 oz., which gets used up pretty quickly when you’re steaming 7’ H x 52” W drapery. A big plus is the 8.5’ cord, which is especially handy in a Stone Age house with electrical outlets few and far between. Highly recommended!

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.

I’m honestly so impressed with this handheld steamer. It heats up quickly and removes wrinkles from clothes in just a few seconds, making it much easier than pulling out an ironing board. Steam relaxes the fabric fibers so the wrinkles disappear without pressing the fabric flat like a traditional iron.  The size is perfect—lightweight, compact, and easy to store or travel with. I’ve used it on shirts, dresses, and even curtains, and it works great on all of them. Another thing I love is how simple it is to use: fill the tank, wait a moment for it to heat up, and start steaming. It saves so much time when you just need a quick refresh before leaving the house. If you want a fast, convenient way to keep your clothes looking neat without ironing, a handheld steamer like this is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend! 👕✨

I've never used a steamer before so I was hesitant to use it on some dresses I bought off of Amazon which arrived super wrinkled. I didn't want the silky and lacy fabrics ruined. But it worked beautifully! The head is large and covers a pretty wide area at a time. I hung it on the shower rod and was finished pretty quickly. The water reservoir is small, and easy to fill, so the weight of the steamer is from the machine itself. It is heavy but also very well made. I love it and I'm keeping it, I can't wait to try it on other fabrics that I have laid out to dry that are also super wrinkled.

This is my 2nd time owning a steamer. My first one I purchased. Was an upright Rowenta steamer. I purchased it back in 2012 on QVC. I loved it. (Rowenta will know which older model, sold on Qvc I'm referring to) Until last month it worked flawlessly. Then it simply stopped heating up & streaming. (I still have the upright one as I can hang clothes on it and steam them with the new steamer) I almost purchased a different brand this time. Until I saw this handheld Rowenta steamer. Since I had a good decade with owning a Rowenta. I went ahead and bought this handheld. Granted, it's not light. Especially for those with arthritis. And the water tank is small. However those 2 negatives are miniscule. Compared how well it's built and the quick steam ironing it does. I immediately took it out and tried it on several tops. Some whilst hanging on the old Rowenta and some on the ironing board. And I'm impressed!! Doesn't leave your clothes damp and gets the wrinkles out, fast. I'm very glad I found Rowenta products on Amazon. I hope this steamer, gets me through another decade!

It does good steam iron but leaves wet streaks behind . I end up using hair dryer to dry those water marks if I am rushing to work.

Such a great steamer!!! Nice size, appearance. Used almost daily for my sewing and embroidery cottage business in my home. It’s lightweight, portable with a long power cord. The levels of steam makes wrinkle removal simple for all fabrics and projects. I purchased it primarily for the steamer, but the flat iron plate is a wonderful feature to press a bit while steaming, not disappointed. The water reservoir is a bit tricky to remove, it fits very snuggly in place, which is good! I wish it was easier to fill. The fill port is very small. No additional attachments come with the steamer. Great value.

This steamer is high quality and works well but it is very heavy.

The device is 110V and not compatible with the 220V power in the UAE. I purchased it from Amazon UAE and expected it to match local standards. I’d like to return it. Thanks.

Wish I could give this a minus score. Have had this item assessed by two reputable electricians who both reported it to be dangerous and a fire hazard. Item is gauged for the USA and not UK market as they are both different wattage. DO NOT BUY

This is the handiest! No need to have an iron anymore Hang clothes and steam away This is the second one I have bought- good quality product

Si buscas algo que te saque de un apuro o bien, quitarle las arrugas a las camisas después de la secadora, esta es la mejor opción

This item is fitted with a 2 pin plug which cannot fit UK 3 pin as the pins are flat tipped. Please can someone advise what to do?
