Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Corby 5500 Original Trouser Presser
Customer Review: works but not what I expected
Summary: 2 Stars
I also was disapointed with the product but maybe I expected too much. It does seem to perform an adequate job of getting out those wrinkles around the knees by pressing a pair of pants from the bottom of the pockets down to the cuff. I am 6-4 so it appears that the machine might cover more area on a shorter pair of pant. But if you're expecting to never iron your slacks again forget it. It does not touch the pockets or butt area. But then looking at the machine I now realize it was never meant to do that anyway. I was hoping to discove a secret device to make my life easier and me look better. Instead I have a curiosity that I'm not so sure I want to show my friends.Customer Review: Does nothing to wrinkle pants
Summary: 1 Stars
Don't buy this thinking you will never iron your pants again.I tried both wrinkled and ironed pants on this thing and saw nothing that would justify its purchase.
Plus, only the bottom portion (the legs) go into the machine. This means that the part around your butt, front, and waist is left to itself. And if you are 6 feet and above, then only about 80% of the legs go into the machine. It is designed for short people.
It is nothing but a fancy closet appliance. You are way better off with an iron, and the plies you get with an iron are a billion time better than what this thing promise to deliver.
I returned it the next day.
Customer Review: It's not your mother's dry cleaner, but ..................
Summary: 5 Stars
Bottom line it does what it is suppose to do, press your pants.Does it press your pants as good as a dry cleaner would? No, but it is fairly close.
Will the product save you money? You bet it will, I cut my dry cleaning bill by 40 percent the first week I had it.
Is it easy to operate? Yes
Customer Review: Didn't work
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this for my husband since he hates to iron and doesn't like to spend money on dry cleaning. The first one I received did not heat up and neither did the second one. We both were terribly disappointed.Customer Review: Does not work.
Summary: 1 Stars
This trouser press does not work. It does not heat up hot enough to get the wrinkles out of slacks especially those with rayon or polyester material which requires a higher heat setting. Also since only one side is heated, the slacks will have an uneven press on the two pant legs. I have found that if the slacks are not positioned right, you will end up with double creases on the pants which will require ironning to get out.
