Tools and Hardware Reviews of Jiffy Steamer J-2000 Residential Series 1300-Watt Garment Steamer
Customer Review: Awesome steamer!
Summary: 5 Stars
I helped my dad pick out a steamer for my mom for christmas. I had been using a toby steamer at my boyfriends and LOVED the convenience of steaming. We received the steamer ahead of schedule just in time for christmas. Let me tell you, you can tell a huge difference in the quality of this steamer. All of the components are sturdy, (ex. brass nuts, heavy duty hose) This brand is made in U.S.A. and is superior quality. It is tested before its packaged so you know it works. This steamer produces steam within a minute and it continuously flows without sputtering water. My mom is really excited about it (she doesn't get excited over much, so what a success!) This steamer puts the Toby to shame, love this steamer, and love that I can support an American made product!Customer Review: Bachelor let down

I was hoping to reduce the number of times that a shirt goes to the cleaners. The product works as advertised, but its difficult to steam the wrinkles away. It works best on the no-iron shirts, but it seems that an iron would be just as effective. The other detractor is that you cannot control the steam - once it heats up, the steam just pours out and after doing a few shirts, the small laundry room's windows begin to fog over.
Bottom line - As far as steamers go, it works very well, but if you're a guy looking to touch up shirts in lieu of taking them to the cleaners then an iron works as well or better.
Customer Review: Basically perfect

This machine rocks!! I've had it about 2 months, and it's gotten tons of use already. I make costumes as a hobby, and needed a better quality steamer than the cheapie I had. This baby is it! It heats up literally in seconds, has a large water reservoir, and just performs like a workhorse. I have steamed costumes made out of machine-washed and very wrinkled prom dresses, wedding gowns, silk, wool... everything. Plus my own business and casual clothes. I have some delicate fabrics in my career wardrobe, and this steamer is safe on all of them. The steamer is more effective than an iron on most things, but doesn't replace the iron for some things, such as creases on slacks, linen, dinner napkins. It's also kind of hard to steam sleeves on blouses and shirts. The trick to steaming is definitely steaming from the underside of the garment. But watch out - it gets really hot under there! Also, you need to hold the handle "upward", versus holding it down toward the ground. If the steamer suddenly stops steaming, either you're holding the handle too low, or you're out of water. If you're careful, and once you get a little experience with it, you'll love it.Customer Review: Best Garment Steamer at a reasonable price

Hate ironing . . . goal was that TOBY steamer, researched and TOBY had a lot bad reviews. Research some more and found consumer reports to stated JIFFY was better and at a resonable price. And boy were they correcting in stating so. This light weight wand steamer quickly removes wrinkles from fabric. It heats up in a minute; with high-velocity steam jets and a wide head. Very easy to use. The whole family loves it. Should have bought two!Customer Review: Best bang for your buck!!!

After a lot of research I purchased this Jiffy Steamer about a year ago. I can't speak more highly of it, it heats up quickly and after some learning how to use it I can steam a shirt within minutes. CAUTION... be very careful while you are learning how to use it because you will burn yourself. A great tip is an oven mitt works great to keep from burning yourself when you got to get in close to put pressure on the clothes. After trying to learn how to use it I did realize it was difficult without having something to be able to apply pressure against the clothes to get the wrinkles out of it. I went back onto Amazon and looking at a steamer board but for $200 I don't think so. So, what I did do is buy a door hanger so I could hang my ironing board against my closet door and use it as a steamer board and it works great and only cost me 6 bucks. Plus, I also purchased a over the door coat hook hanger to hang the clothes in front of the ironing board and that only cost another $5 bucks.
