But what if you didn't have to iron your clothes?
That's where steamers come into play. These handy machines can zap out creases and wrinkles from your clothes in no time, eliminating the need to bust out the iron every time you need to look presentable. Here are some of the best clothes steamers you may want to invest in for instant dewrinkling:
Conair ExtremeSteam Handheld Fabric Steamer, $81.99, Neiman Marcus
Equipped with advanced steam technology, this steamer is designed to deliver the performance of an iron to make your favorite clothing appear fresh-pressed. It has a built-in creaser for perfect pleats and folds and is capable of standing on its own.
What the fans say: “I’m going nuts steaming everything in the house! It really is so easy to use with the powerful smooth and steady steam that instantly takes away the wrinkles on delicate fabrics to upholstery. The included attachments make steaming on different materials just perfect.”
Sunbeam Power Steam Fabric Steamer, $27.99, Amazon
This handheld steamer boasts a clever design, with a powerful shot of steam feature that lets you work horizontally or vertically. It heats up within seconds with its 1200W of power and can blast off an extra-strength shot of steam with just a double click.
What the fans say: “This is the best small hand held steamer I have ever used. You have much better control over the amount of steam plus you have the hot plate that functions similar to an iron. It is fast, convenient and inexpensive. All of these hand held home steamers will spit from time to time but with a little practice with different fabrics, the proper temperature and the amount of steam you are using, this one does not.”
Rowenta X-Cel Steam First Handheld Steamer, was $99.99 now $66.38, Amazon
With 1600 watts of power, this steamer boots in only forty seconds, so there's virtually no waiting time to get it ready. It has two steam levels — turbo and delicate — to give you the option to choose depending on the fabric you're steaming. And with the heated soleplate, you can use it both horizontally or vertically without incurring any condensation.
What the fans say: “Key is the high wattage with 2 settings! Only takes a few seconds to heat up & then a few swipes over the garment. So great that I bought 2 more for gifts.”
Hilife Handheld Garment Steamer, was $38.99 now $30.99, Amazon
With a water tank capacity of 240ML, this budget-friendly option offers 15 minutes of continuous streaming to zap out wrinkles from garments. It has a 9-feet power cord for extra flexibility and additional brush attachments for smoothing out creases and getting rid of lint. Plus, thanks to its portable size, it's easy to carry anywhere and everywhere.
What the fans say: “This little steamer is amazing! To be so little, it gets the job done. I bought it initially to take it on a trip, but after I realize how simple and easy it was to use, and what a great job it does, I have started using it all the time. I even have one in my office for quick touch ups on my jackets! Leaves clothes wrinkle free, and the amount of heat and steam it delivers does wonders on my curtains and anywhere I need it! Highly recommend it!”
Conair Complete Steam Hand Held Fabric Steamer, was $24.99 now $19.99, Amazon
Clocking in at only 9x5.5 inches, this steamer doesn’t demand much room in your home. It packs an easy-to-fill, removeable 4.9 ounce water tank and 1100 watts of power, delivering 10 long minutes of deep penetrating steam.
What the fans say: “I had doubts about a steamer. OMG this steamer is beyond fantastic. Heats up quickly. Does a phenomenal job. Better than an iron. I absolutely love it and highly, highly recommend it. Price is great. If you're looking for a steamer, stop right here!"
iSteam Steamer for Clothes, $29.67, Amazon
This portable steamer packs superior iron steaming technology that heats up in just 60 seconds and can cater to all kinds of fabric, including drapery and beddings. It’s TSA-approved, too, so you’ll have no problem including it in your carry-on luggage.
What the fans say: “I had a big stand up steamer for years that finally broke. Thought I would try this little hand held unit and I absolutely love it! Small, portable, stows away in a drawer. Heats up fast and puts out lots of steam. Does it replace a big, bulky stand up steamer? For me the answer is "Yes."
Jiffy Esteam Handheld Steamer, $75, Amazon
Designed for portability, this steamer is small enough for packing when space is at a premium. But despite its minute size, it’s powerful enough to provide up to 15 minutes of steam time per filling. It’s also made with high impact engineered polymer outer housing for added durability.
What the fans say: “I am a professional stylist and I have used many steamers over the years. This one is hands down the best I have ever had. It is super easy to fill and holds a lot of water. The steam level is amazing for a handheld and most importantly it is light, perfect for jobs on location and traveling.”
Beautural Travel Steamer, was $39.97 now $32.97, Amazon
Safe to use for just about any fabric, this steamer can make your garments look crisp in no time. It boasts a 30-second fast heat-up and comes with three additional attachments: a lint brush, a soft brush, and a creaser.
What the fans say: “This is a great little steamer. I have a fancy iron and a professional large steamer and could not love this more. It steams wrinkles away quickly, the steam output is steady and did not spit water on any garments, and the ability to remove lint while steaming was smart and more importantly IT WORKS!! GREAT item and gift for anyone that likes wrinkle free clothing.”
Chi Handheld Garment Steamer, $49, Amazon
Specifically designed for travel, this garment steamer weighs only 1.1 lbs and comes with an included travel bag. It also comes in a wand design, making it easy to pack in your carry-on or luggage.
What the fans say: “I got this for traveling, but it’s turned into my daily steamer because of how good it easy. With my other steamer, things take forever to steam because it has to reheat every so often. With the Chi, I can steam multiple items without an issue.”
