EnglishThe types of electric irons can be divided into ordinary type, temperature adjustment type, steam spray type, etc. Today I will introduce to you the steam spray type electric iron (hereinafter referred to as steam iron).
Steam irons not only have the function of regulating temperature but also can generate steam. Some also have spray devices, which reduce the trouble of manual water spraying. Because its panel has a unique design, several holes are reserved to turn on the steam. When turned on and off, water will be turned into steam by high temperature and ejected, improving the ironing effect. It can also protect the clothes and have a specific sterilization function.
Steam irons and garment steamers have both evolved from electric irons. Their function is to iron clothes flat. Let me briefly talk about the differences between them.
1. About the ironing effect
The steam iron itself is small in size and can be controlled freely when used. It can achieve the desired effect according to the ironing force and angle. Its pressing effect is good and the clothes have better lines. Some garment ironing machines cannot produce good line effects for clothes such as trousers. But it can be used when ironing items of clothing.
2. About the difficulty of operation
The use of a steam iron has high requirements on the user's craftsmanship and requires certain skills. For some clothes made of light and thin materials, be careful when using them to prevent them from being burned. The nozzle of the garment steamer is far away from the steam engine, so it is not easy to burn the clothes. When using it, you only need to point the jet nozzle at the clothes, and the operation difficulty is very low.
3. Applicable scenarios
Steam irons are generally compact and suitable for use at home and do not take up space. Garment steamers are easy to operate and vertical garment steamers are large. Different types are suitable for families, business trips, clothing stores, etc.
