Tefal Pure Tex Handheld Clothes Steamer, 1700 W, 200ML, Blue & White, DT9530

Great Product , Performs as per advertised and good value for Money

This is well made and looks cool. Easy to use and produces a lot of steam. If you wanted to do a lot of clothes you would have to wait for it to cool before refilling the water tank which is on the small side. Still, I bought this for the odd thing which I don’t want to iron so about 4 shirts is ok. Also it doesn’t drip! Overall a good purchase.

OMG this is so good. I have been using a cheap nasty steamer for years that always left water marks in my clothes so I decided to spend a bit more money…I’m glad I did. This packs a good punch of steam, has different heads for steaming, cleaning etc. the only downside is that it’s heavy so you definitely wouldn’t want to put this in your suitcase but is absolutely perfect for me at home, in the caravan, when we so self catering in the UK. It’s a quality piece of kit.

I purchased this brand new from Amazon but it was faulty. There was an airlock in the system that, despite following all instructions, wouldn't pass and we couldn't get any steam. We sent it back and were sent a replacement - which had obviously been used/returned already as it had signs of wear/tear. I did consider whether my star rating was bias because of the fault of amazon of replacing a brand new full price but faulty item returned the day after it was delivered with something used - but there are the following points. I did try the working item out before returning because it was already clearly used and I wasn't sure whether to waste time trying for a third. 1. There is only enough steam per canister to really drop out half the mild creases from a ladies shirt. You couldn't steam anything substantial with this. 2. I've used professional steamers before and they replace irons, as I now struggle to get an ironing board up/down I was hoping to be able to use this in place of an iron for at least some things to reduce the frequency of wrestling with the ironing board - it's just not good enough. Baring in mind I hang dry clothing and most of the creases drop out that way, it's still just not up to the job. 3. It's much too heavy, the heating unit and the water are all in the one device, one shirt (half done) was enough to make my shoulder and wrist really ache. So in a nutshell, it didn't work because it was air locked and needed specialist equipment to release the lock, the replacement (overlooking Amazon sent me a used one) wasn't up to the job I was hoping it would do and was heavy/cumbersome/limited in scope to use.

I love this! I find it so easy to give clothes a quick blast to get the creases out. I am not a fan of ironing, and this is so much easier and doesn't leave shiny patches or more creases. I use it all the time and have also used it for steam cleaning upholstery, which worked very well too. I then cleaned the dirt off the cleaning attachment with a small brush and washing up liquid and it is as good as new again. Very pleased with purchase, would highly recommend to fellow ironing avoiders.

Does a great job!

I had to give this a three star since I had a lot of trouble getting it up and running. I set it up as directed yet there was no steam, I tried several times but to no avail. I assumed it was broken and rearranged a replacement through Amazon, who were brilliant and I received a new one a few days later and returned the “broken” one. Set up the new one and had the EXACT same problem. I couldn’t believe my luck, I assumed I must be doing something wrong as no one is that unlucky, right? Trawled the web, found lots of people have been dealing with this same issue. It’s possibly due to air bubbles in the tubing that need clearing out. There is several methods to remove them, some involving specialised equipment that I don’t have at hand. The easiest method was to fill the tank with distilled water (I did use tap water however) turn the handset upside down, pointing it away from yourself any people or pets. Then tap the side firmly, with a decent amount of strength but not going overboard. This will hopefully dislodge the bubbles. Turn it on and continue to tap it, you should then eventually hear the change of sound as it begins to work and steam will start to generate. However, in the advice i was using it said it would work within half a minute of this.. I was going from around 15minutes before it started to work. I was seconds away from giving up and declaring it broken. The steamer itself is good, easy to use and efficient. I can’t help but think if I paid £99 for this I wouldn’t be happy having to trouble shoot a brand new product to get it up and running. It also doesn’t speak well on its longevity if it can suffer from these types of issues from the off.

Good products, needs regular refilling but the different steamer covers are a cool feature
