Frequently asked questions

Can I replace my Iron with a Steamer?

A garment steamer is not an iron, so it won’t give you the same results especially on thick cotton or linen shirts.

It is also great for touching up and refreshing all kinds of garments, including woollens and jackets.

Is the Garment Steamer safe to use on all garments?

Yes, your garment steamer is safe and suitable for use on all ironable garments. There’s no risk of scorching or burning.

Both are designed to be used with tap water. If you live in an area with hard water, though, limescale may build up quickly.

If this is the case, try using distilled or demineralised water (50% demineralised water mixed with tap water can be used too).

Do not use perfumed water, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids, chemically descaled water or other chemicals. Not only are they unsafe but they may also cause water spitting, brown staining or damage to your steamer or iron.

To fragrance your clothes, instead try:
• Using perfumed washing softener in your wash
• Using essential oils (aromas) during washing
• Spritzing your garment with perfumed water after ironing or steaming

Can using Garment Steamer replace a washing cycle?

There are other benefits too. Steaming with a garment steamer removes odours and kills 99.9% of bacteria¹, leaving clothes fresh, healthy and ready to wear.
