Tools and Hardware Reviews of Jiffy J-2000"I" All-purpose Residential Garment SteamerCustomer Review: Great steamer, well worth the price! Summary: 5 Stars
After owning and using two previous clothing steamers in the past, I was a little disappointed by the lifespan they had and anxious to try a different model. I had a Steamfast model the first two times and they lasted about a year and a half each one. Customer service was great and they sent me a replacement piece (20 bucks) to fix the problem for a while but eventually it broke down again. Still, I would have no problem buying one again, but i had to try out this Jiffy.
This Jiffy is great because it has a metal head! The head does seem to act more like an iron than the previous plastic head pieces that would eventually melt apart over time on the older Steamfast models I have had(lots of duct tape over the years). The head as well as the two other pieces to attach to the tubing led me to give this Jiffy a try.
Another great feature that I am very happy about is the water fill tank. In previous models, I had to use a funnel to fill the tank. My dog would often steal the funnel and chew it to pieces and I would always end up having to soak up some spilled water. A real pain in the behind that this model avoids.
There is a nice metal clothing rack that is much sturdier than models I used in the past. There is a wrench that sit cleverly magnetized under the unit for head swapping. Very cool features.
This unit comes to a full steam so much quicker than any other unit that I have used.
One major concern that I have is that where the tube meets the wood on the hose, it seems likely that it will wear out eventually. Maybe this will not ever be a problem, but it does seem to be wearing down already. I would think so sort of spring would be a nice fit to bridge the gap at that point.
Another slightly upsetting thing is that the steam hose attachment end for cleaning did not see to work at blasting away dirt or mold around my shower as I had hoped. Maybe I will have to spray the area beforehand next time, but after one trial run...not impressed with it yet.
Overall, as you can see, I am very satisfied with my purchase. I think it is the best steamer I have ever owned and laundry seemed to take much quicker to steam that with units in the past. It is faster to heat and faster to clean with. The metal head is a great feature as it heats up as well creating that synergistic "iron" like situation when contacting the clothing. I would definitely buy this unit again. It will be well worth the money.
