Very good for the price

published

Not as good as an iron of course but on curtains and bedding it definitely does an okay job. Recommend it for the price. Good size water tank, heats up quickly as well.

Short circuited the power

published

I only had this steamer about 5 months before it started tripping the power in my home, rendering it useless.



It was messy with the water, too. Water often pooled in the bottom of the reservoir and sometimes, if it didn't seal right, it would pool up and spill over and I'd have a big wet puddle to clean up.

Purchased in September 2021.

Fine until it short-circuited the house

published

I was happy with this steamer for the first year but then it started short-circuiting my apartment. Every powerpoint, and other appliances I had no problem with, I don't know if the water flooded the wiring at some point in the steamer, which is possible because it's very leaky, but anyway. Prepare for electrical failure :l

Great steamer!

published

Im a bit shocked at the negative reviews on this steamer. This is the 3rd steamer I have owned and by far the best. It heats up quickly,produces a LOT of steam and comes with handy attachments. With a large family it is a godsend-I can steam a whole line full of clothes in about 20mins,much faster than using an iron! You can steam straight over iron on prints etc with no need to turn inside out and steam really delicate fabrics that you could never iron. Its very stable,has different steam settings and is height adjustable. The last steamer I had cost over $200 and wasnt this good,for around the $50 mark,you really cant go wrong. Well done Kmart!

Very very average

published

This steamer works okay, works well on very thin clothing but if trying to steam iron a button up business style shirt I wouldn’t bother.
It was missing parts in the box although it was fully sealed with no signs of being repackaged. Hose is hard to manoeuvre.
I’d spend the extra money and get better quality. I’ve gone back to using a normal iron.

Not good at all!

published

I was thinking of replacing my traditional iron with the steamer, but after using the garment steamer from kmart, i'm very disappointed! It is not even close to what the traditional iron does. Yes, it helps to reduce the wrinkles a bit, but doesn't do anything near to what the iron does. Will surely be returning this.

Great, a bit time consuming

published

Overall a great product, has good accessories to affix various clothing items. It’s just a bit slow and you have to wait in between gushes of steam. Still I prefer this over ironing. It’s nice and sturdy and should last. No staining or damage to clothing at all. I recommend this product.

Works really well

published

Bought this in Dec 2017 and it has since replaced my iron. It takes about 10 minutes to warm up, but goes quickly after that. It works on every type of garment, even curtains. I was a bit wary of having this break down, but it has defied expectations and been steady and reliable. At $49 it's a steal.

Hi, I’m not sure,I haven’t had a problem with mine leaking at all. I would probably take it back to Kmart if it’s less than a year old and they should replace it for you...sorry I can’t be more help!
