 I HATE looking like I’ve slept in my clothes when I travel, or worse, like I’ve worn the same clothes for the last 3 weeks.
Ergo, most of the clothes that I bring don’t require ironing - but (and there’s always a ‘but’) sometimes you just need to have something really nice with you that will need ironing from time to time, e.g. linen or silk.
To that end, I’ve tried a number of different travel irons and most of them were complete disappointments. Then my buddy Colin turned me on to a steamer iron that he picked up from Brookstone. After hearing what he had to say about it, I couldn’t order it fast enough.
Yee-ha! It works like a charm. Here’s how Brookstone describes it..
This Steamer Iron has a steamer to banish the most stubborn wrinkles from your suitcase-mangled clothes. And it has a powerful iron that applies crisp creases to your shirts and slacks. The fabric and lint brush finish off your best look.
Powerful steam function works fast to eliminate wrinkles. Iron allows you to press clothes quickly and the adjustable temperature feature is perfect for different fabrics. Non-stick surface keeps iron from sticking to clothes.
Size is perfect for travel; includes its own nylon case and the Steamer Iron fits neatly into a carry-on bag. Dual voltage for universal use. Has a switch that accommodates both 120V and 220V so you can use iron anywhere. Water reservoir is removable for easy filling.
It gets a 5-star rating from me!
