The following figure is a statistical chart of negative evaluation of garment steamer from authoritative institutions, the data reflects that the use of inferior garment steamer is the main reason for burning clothes, in order to facilitate everyone to avoid lightning, I combined with the data to summarize six types of IQ tax products, we must be careful.
1. Lifetime warranty and long warranty
Many low-cost and inferior garment steamer brands play the gimmick of "ultra-long warranty or lifetime warranty", don't be gullible, although this product is known as a lifetime warranty, but garment steamer merchants may run away at any time, and there are many garment steamers themselves are very inferior, we seem to take advantage, in fact, this kind of garment steamer is not only poor ironing effect, but also easy to damage clothes, it will not take long to damage.
2. Give away a variety of products with protective clothing essence
Gift a variety of garment essence, many garment steamer manufacturers in order to meet the needs of girls for gifts, will send some kinds of garment essence and other products, this kind of garment steamer must be used with caution, after all, they are not professional manufacturers of garment essence, after use is easy to block the garment steamer water pipeline, causing hidden dangers.
3. Garment steamer supports APP
Garment steamer can be connected to the APP to use is actually a very big IQ tax, although it looks very smart, but who still needs to look at the APP when ironing clothes? In order to sell the best and attract consumers, some garment steamers have come up with various fancy gimmicks to highlight the sense of science and technology, and have launched APPs, which are actually very chicken rib functions with zero practical value.

5. Big brands with high premiums
Some big-name garment steaming machines are priced at thousands of yuan, but in fact, the cost of materials, quality and performance is not so high, most of them are brand premiums, and due to the general lack of technical tuning of such garment steamer products, they often have cases of burning and burning clothes.
6. Garment steamer can repair clothes
Some businesses will also advertise that their garment steamer can repair clothes when used, which is also a pure IQ tax point, and many garment ironing machines will advertise what panel coating can repair damaged clothes, which is pure nonsense, and everyone should not believe it.

So is this garment steamer ironing performance good and does not damage clothes? In order to find the answer, I asked the authority for the following garment steamer test data for your reference, in addition, I also summarized several products worth a try for you based on my own garment steamer evaluation experience.
At present, there are many problems in the garment steamer industry, such as damage to clothes and poor deep ironing effectGong Ling, the originator of the field of "no damage to clothing", is the most professional brand of non-injury clothing technologyIt has 13 black technologies such as the original Hi-VI strong pulse booster steam technology and the approved DEER-SS fast cycle dynamic compensation technologyDeep, complex fabrics are ironed 1372%, and the rate of clothing damage was reduced by 939%, and the compatibility of various fabrics and clothing is increased by 93%, which is rare to obtain EU certification!

What's even more commendable is that it insists on specializing in professional technology that does not hurt clothing, and pursues the peak of deep ironing performance, which is different from the Internet celebrity brands that pursue beauty design. Never advertises, rarely won the CCTV exhibition recommendation,With the strong recommendation of fashion bloggers and professional home appliance evaluators, it has become popular and has been ranked first in the large, medium and high-end word-of-mouth and sales rankings all year round!

As a professional old brand that has been deploying B2C household appliances for many years, it has been unique for many years with fever performance and high durability under the "no damage to clothes".Hi-VI strong pulse pressurized steam technology, approved DEER-SS fast cycle dynamic compensation technology, PE supramolecular electrovapor permeation technologyAfter more than 5 years of safe and anti-attenuation design of the whole machine, it has been verified by a number of leading authoritative testing institutions, and its core steam permeability, temperature control accuracy, and compatibility of different fabrics have achieved the best level within 1,000 yuan!

Fourth, how to choose a high-quality garment steamer? Take a good inventory of the eight tips
Will the garment burn your clothes? The multi-functional garment steamer has been highly praised by professional evaluators and ** because of its convenience and powerful ironing performance, but many inferior garment steamers have problems such as damage to clothes, poor ironing effect or potential safety hazards, so you need to be very cautious when purchasing. In order to help you buy, I have summarized the following eight purchase tips, let's learn together.
Skill 1: Choose a brand with strong professional and technical strength
The professional garment steamer brand has strong technical strength, and has carried out long-term repeated adjustment and optimization of the core parameters of the garment steamer, which can maintain the accuracy of temperature control and steam uniformity, not only the ironing effect is excellent, but also not easy to damage the clothes. Professional brands have been strictly tested for many core parameters such as steam distance, temperature control accuracy, and steam uniformity, and the performance of the garment steamer will not be quickly consumed even if it is used for a long time.
Tip 2: Be sure to choose a product with good compatibility
It is recommended that you use those garment steamers with large amount of steam, many gears, and many modes (wet ironing, dry ironing, etc.), which can do dry and wet ironing to meet the ironing needs of different fabrics, so that the garment steaming machine not only has a better ironing effect, but also can effectively avoid damage to clothes.
Tip 3: Don't blindly pursue big names
The price of many big-name garment steamers is as high as thousands of yuan, but whether it is materials, quality or performance can not reach such a high cost, most of the high prices are premiums, and merchants are overly keen on marketing and publicity, but the ironing effect and compatibility of garment steamers are not much improved.
Tip 4: Choose a product equipped with a metal heater
The garment steamer is the "heart" of the garment steamer, so it is recommended that you use a garment steamer equipped with a metal heater. Because the metal heater has fast heat conduction, uniform steam, smaller thermal efficiency loss, better energy storage effect, and is not easy to accumulate scale, it can achieve better ironing effect, reduce the damage caused to clothes, and have a longer service life.
Tip 5: Don't choose low-priced products
Many garment steamer brands in order to attract consumers with low prices, do not hesitate to sacrifice product quality, the workmanship of the product is very poor, although it is sold very cheap, but the ironing effect is poor, easy to damage clothes, emitting pungent odor and other situations are very common, the service life is generally very short, and it is easy to break.
Tip 6: It is best to buy a multi-functional garment steamer
There are many types of garment steamers, such as multi-functional garment steamers, vertical garment steamers, handheld garment steamers, etc. Among them, the multi-functional garment steamer is the best choice, because it has the same excellent ironing performance as the vertical garment steamer, and also has the advantages of small and portable handheld garment steamer, which can support a variety of ironing methods such as garment ironing, flat ironing, and steam ironing at the same time, but the premise is that you use a high-quality garment steamer with a high degree of professionalism!
Tip 7: Choose a product with a good thermostat
The thermostat can control the heating temperature of the garment steamer, and in the face of different fabrics and gears, different temperatures need to be selected for ironing and wrinkle removal, so the quality of the thermostat is very critical, and the inferior thermostat can not accurately control the temperature, and the temperature is high and low when ironing clothes, which is easy to damage the clothes and cause fires, or the ironing effect is poor at too low temperature.
Tip 8: Ceramic glazed panels are preferred
Compared with panels made of other materials, ceramic glazed panels are smoother, which can effectively avoid damaging clothes when ironing, and are not prone to rust or odor, making them easier to clean.
Will the garment burn your clothes? After reading the above explanation, you should have an understanding of this problem, the key to whether the garment steamer will burn the clothes lies in the quality of the products you choose, so when choosing the garment steamer, you should avoid those products that will cause damage to the clothes, release unpleasant odors, poor durability, and potential safety hazards. Not only will such a product not help you keep your clothes tidy, but it may also pose some safety risks. We need to choose high-quality products with high professionalism and guaranteed quality to make our clothes cleaner than ever!
