After adding water and powering on, the heating element inside the garment steamer vaporizes room-temperature water into high-temperature (generally above 98 degrees Celsius) high-pressure steam, which is then released through steam pipes and nozzles.
During use, simply aim the steam at the wrinkles in the garment and use accessories such as crease clips, brushes, dust brushes, and ironing boards. The "pulling," "pressing," and "spraying" actions smooth the clothes and fabric, achieving a smooth, soft, and dust-free finish, as well as removing mites, bacteria, and dust.
The steam generation mechanism of garment steamers varies depending on their design. Common types include direct-flow, high-powered, and variable-frequency steam steamers. These designs differ in steam pressure, flow rate, and temperature control to suit different ironing needs.
