Conair ExtremeSteam Handheld Garment Steamer

4.5

1 sourceall derived$56.54as of Oct 11

The Conair ExtremeSteam is a 1,200-watt handheld steamer with two heat settings, a removable water reservoir and three attachments, according to its listing. The Bitter Lemon, after a few months of use, called it easy to use, said the tank holds enough water to steam two or three items per fill, and liked the long cord. The same review found it larger than expected, though still compact enough to take on trips.

Strengths

— The Bitter Lemon found it easy to use and reached for it more than a standing steamer owned for years
— Tank holds enough water for two to three items per fill, per The Bitter Lemon
— Long cord, so it does not have to stay close to the outlet

Watch-outs

— Larger than The Bitter Lemon expected for a handheld steamer
— The tank needs refilling after two to three garments

Ranked #4 in Best Garment Steamers

OGHom Steamer for Clothes

4.0

1 sourceall derived$22.03as of Oct 11

Apartment Therapy and Shopping.yahoo.com highlight the OGHom steamer’s 1.2-pound weight and stainless steel heating panel as key benefits for portable travel and durability. Reviewzy found its steam output effective, though it notes that users must apply physical force to remove wrinkles from larger items like drapes. A significant design flaw identified by Reviewzy is the top water reservoir’s insecure attachment, which can detach easily when handling boiling hot water. Additionally, Apartment Therapy points out that the device operates exclusively on 120-volt outlets, limiting its utility for international travelers without a voltage converter.

Strengths

— Stainless steel heating panel resists rust and oxidation better than aluminum models.
— Weighs only 1.2 pounds, making it highly portable for travel.
— Includes a long power cord that provides flexibility when steaming larger items or drapes.

Watch-outs

— The top water reservoir does not lock securely and can detach easily while handling boiling hot water.
— Designed exclusively for the US market, limiting use to 120-volt outlets without a converter.
