Jiffy J-2000 clothes steamer, 1300 watts, with plastic steam head. Similar to the J-2 model, but with updated design and ergonomics Quick 2-minute heat-up time, high-impact polymer outer housing, 1300 watt heating element die cast in solid brass, 50/60 Hertz electrical system, low profile, easy-to-handle water reservoir, new "no spill" check valve cap for easy filling, over 1.5 hours of steam per filling, color-coded high temperature wiring, fusible link with automatic shut-off for safety, 360 degree swivel casters for mobility, assembly wrench included. Made in the USA.
This sturdy, durable wand steamer presses wrinkles out of garments, drapes, and upholstery quicker and easier than an iron, and it doesn't "shine" or scorch fabrics like an iron can. Wand steamers are popular in the fashion and entertainment fields, where wardrobe crews must keep clothing immaculate while working quickly. This 1,300-watt steamer shoots high-velocity steam jets out of a 6-inch-wide head to smooth any fabric from sheer silk to thick wool. A removable water tank provides up to 90 minutes of steaming time. The steamer heats in a minute and then rolls to work on sturdy casters. Garments and drapes can be pressed where they hang, including closets, or garments can be hung from a loop atop the steamer's sturdy aluminum rod, which screws together to rise 62 inches above the floor. For storage, the rod has a holder for the wand.
Indicative of the steamer's quality is the brass fitting attaching the hose to the tank. (A wrench to tighten the fitting is included, and it has magnets for storage on the base.) Other features include an automatic safety shutoff if the steamer runs dry and a stay-cool wand handle. The steamer's plastic base measures 11 inches wide, 17 inches high, and 14-1/2 inches deep. The steamer carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Never have to iron again...Priceless:
I've been using it for months now and our clothes never looked better. I had the technique down by the fourth garment (mostly). It's easy to assemble and use. I have not burned myself but if you get careless you could. Don't use it with children around. It doesn't work well on heavy fabrics like denim but hey, no one is perfect. We are really happy with it.
good stuff:
It can take wrinkles out of almost anything. It's especially useful for things like curtains and bedsheets that would be a MAJOR pain to iron. I use it mainly for my dress shirts. I really would like to use it on my dress pants as well, and sometimes I do, but in my experience, it tends to slightly soften the creases, so I'm very careful how I use it on my dress pants. If I had a pant press to go along with this, it would be the perfect combination.
Buy an iron:
This is great for sensitive clothes. If you can use an iron...do it. It will save you a lot of money and works a lot better.
Great Met All My Needs:
This product is amazing I would recommend it to anyone who wants an affordable hassle free means of steaming and or ironing there clothes; this beats labouring over an ironing board any day. I must also say that before purchasing the J-2000 I extensively read the reviews of those who purchase it on amazon before me. Most had sterling reviews which was a plus as well as those who may have purchased another brand that cost much less were sorely dissapointed in their buy. Assembly was straight foward and... more info
