Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of SteamFast SF-407 1500-Watt Fabric Steamer
Customer Review: Recommend this steamer
Summary: 4 Stars
I put it together quickly and with no problems. I heated up in about 30 seconds.
I puts out a nice, even flow of very hot steam.
The wide steam head it a plus.
I just road tested this steamer on a pair of wool dress pants, a cotton shirt and a linen blend skirt.
I attempted to put the crease back into the wool pants using this steamer instead of my iron or steam press (also a SteamFast) because of the shine they leave on dry cleaned wool and found this is going to take practice. The steamer removed the wrinkles beautifully but they were not that many to begin with. I started with the pants hanging up on the attached garment hanger but put the pants on the ironing board and was able to get a crease, but not as perfect as I can with the iron. But again, with practice I think I will be able to with this steamer.
My cotton shirt was very badly wrinkled. The steamer again performed beautifully. While it did not impart a crisp starched looking pressing like an iron will, it did remove all but the very worst wrinkles at the hem. To finish, I again put the shirt on the ironing board and removed them. I also was able to get the collar nice and pressed looking, too.
The moment of truth was the linen blend skirt. You know how linen gets. This was skirt was air dried from the wash and was a skirt shar pei. Add to that, this is a tailored skirt with a buttoned vent. A serious pain in the behind to press. This is where the steamer would have gotten five stars from me - it got this skirt work ready and much, much faster and easier than had I used the iron. I was seriously impressed.
I did not have any problems with water drips except the 2 or 3 I got when I laid the pants flat on the ironing board. None with them hanging on the stand on the unit. And none after that.
The loss of a star is for the hose. It gets very hot and nowhere do they mention that in the instructions (but I did see that in a review here). I had to maneuver around it for fear of burning myself and that was distracting/cut my efficiency.
I tried using the heat pad that comes with the unit but found it too awkward so I just used my hands. Barely burn myself a couple of times, and not at all after a few passes (once I got the feel of the weight of the steam head and direction of the steam).
With the caveat of not having tested this on silk, I do recommend this steamer. It passed it's first test with me with flying colors.
