Tools and Hardware Reviews of Jiffy Steamer J-4000 Pro-Line Commercial Garment Steamer
Customer Review: Fabulous Tool for Busy People Who Have to Look Good
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I never know what I want to wear (to work) until morning usually, my modus operandi previously was to iron in the morning if I felt up to it. In addition, to get good results was a huge pain and time consumer, let alone that the clothes that I ironed looked worse and worse over time.
Enter the J-4000...
I first purchased the Jiffy J-2000 based on reviews on the Web and the fact that it was on sale at Costco.com. Upon receiving it and trying it out, I was not especially impressed because the steam seemed to merely seep out of the head. It did a passable job of getting wrinkles out, but did not seem to have what I felt was the power to really get my clothes in great shape quickly and effectively.
I then visited Amazon.com and re-read the reviews of both the J-2000 and the J-4000. I noticed that people were absolutely raving about the J-4000. I also discovered that the price at the time was a steal, so I decided to try it side-by-side and return the model I did not want.
Well, I received the J-4000 today and whipped out a few of my daughter's tiny little button-down lacy shirts that have been a nightmare to iron (and hence, have not been getting any wearings). I also steamed a suit I wore today to an all-day meeting and now it is as fresh as if I'd just gotten it dry-cleaned. Unlike with the J-2000, I actually could see the steam moving through all of the layers of fabric and making a true difference in my suit's appearance (and odor with a little Febreeze).
I am sold on the J-4000 and will be returning the J-2000. I think the J-4000 works so well because of the 1500 W vs. 1300 W heating element. It makes a big difference.
I paid $124 with shipping at Costco.com for the J-2000 and $199 with shipping at Amazon.com for the J-4000. Since then, I've only seen it as low as $250, so you'll have to watch for specials.
Customer Review: Fabulous!! Beats ironing!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this to get wrinkles out of store stock and I am so pleased. Works wonderfully! I am so glad that I opted for this model and did not cheap out and buy a lesser one. It is well worth the money for how good a job it does. It is fabulous on wools and silks.Customer Review: Finally a steamer that works!

After purchasing and returning two steamers, I decided to go for the Jiffy Commercial Steamer. It does what I needed it to do. The drawback is that it does take considerably longer to heat up. But, it does the job. In fact, I decided to try it removing wallpaper, and it did that too. This is the steamer for me.Customer Review: Good Steamer
Summary: 4 Stars
Fast delivery by Amazon with free shipping, is a bit slow to heat up but works great for a long time with a large water capacity and I like buying an American made product. If you need a heavy duty product I think this will fill the bill.I should have bought more attachments as it has a lot of potential for more uses.Customer Review: Good, but not perfect
Summary: 4 Stars
The Jiffy steamer works well on linen and shirts with a lot of hard-to-iron detail, but this is not a replacement for your iron. If you are tall, you will bend over a lot to reach the bottoms of pants, etc. that hang while you steam. Also, this is very hard to use without a steam board to push against. But there is a lot of steam and it is very hot, so drapes, linens, etc. are quick work with this steamer.
