This steamer is an absolute must for us here at Anna! The hot steam from a handheld steamer lifts the textile fibers – instead of pressing them down like the iron – and makes them swell and regain their natural shape. Steaming is similar to airing clothes. The hot steam removes signs of a garment ever being worn, such as odors, shallow dirt and bacteria. Unlike other steamers this Steamery one has a sleek and chic look.
