There are in fact 9 key ways (and many more). Let’s take a look…
1. Quick Wrinkle Removal
Steaming your clothes with a Propress steamer is faster than the normal ironing approach, especially for light or moderately wrinkled clothes. Both the actual wrinkle removing process but also time saved not setting up an ironing board saves time. For the MINI, just hang clothes on a door and steam away. In the case of the Professional range, for example the PRO290 Professional Garment Steamer, it comes with a built in hanger as part of the unit. And heat up time is faster too – a Propress MINI takes just 45 seconds, irons take over 2 minutes.
2. Gentle on Fabrics
Unlike an iron, which can scorch or leave shiny marks on delicate fabrics, steamers are gentle and suitable for materials like silk, chiffon, and velvet; and for vintage/preloved clothes. With a Propress clothes last longer and stay looking new. A Propress is also ideal for clothes with embellishments. Clothes with beads, sequins, lace, or other delicate details might be damaged by an iron. Not so with a Propress.
3. Versatility
Steamers work not just on clothes but also on drapes, upholstery, and even bedding. Steam curtains and drapes without taking them down. Refresh furniture upholstery or plush items like throw pillows, sanitize mattresses or pet beds by killing dust mites and bacteria.
4. Odour Removal
The heat from the steam on a Propress kills 99.9% of the odour causing bacteria on a garment, leaving clothes fresher. In the case of light odours a quick steam with a Propress can replace a wash. Steam naturally neutralizes odors, making it a great solution for clothes that don’t necessarily need washing but need freshening up. This is especially useful for suits and jackets that can’t be washed frequently, and items stored for a long time, like seasonal clothing.
5. Ease of Use
A Propress steamer couldn’t be easier to use – just turn on, wait for the green light and steam away. Heat up time is quicker than an iron, and there’s no ironing board to set up.
6. Space-Saving
The Propress MINI is compact and portable, ideal for small living spaces and when you need to steam clothes on the move.
7. Saves Money
Steaming with a Propress steamer is quicker than an iron (saving electricity), can extend the life of your clothes, and can replace trips to the dry cleaners.
8. Sanitization
A Propress steamer will kill 99.9% of the bacteria in clothes, kill mites and other allergens, and generally help to keep your clothes and fabrics hygienic.
9. Restores shape
Steaming with a Propress can help fabrics relax and regain their original shape, especially after being packed or folded.
