Heading on a trip soon? During your travels, you may be planning on exploring a foreign city, indulging in a few special dinners aboard a cruise ship or enjoying evenings out with friends and family on the road. You'll want to pull out your best outfits for the occasion, but a wrinkled look? Probably not the vibe you're going for. A simple solution thousands of Amazon shoppers (and our home and garden writer) swear by is the top-selling (as in, more than 20,000 purchased in the past month) Hilife Clothes Steamer. It also happens to be down to just $24, but only for a limited time ahead of the Amazon Big Spring Sale.

If you're traveling for an out-of-town wedding or need to get wrinkles out on the go, this compact steamer will give you so much bang for your buck. In fact, this is the best price we've seen it marked down to in years — you're saving nearly 50%. That said, this is a lightning deal that'll disappear once it's 100% claimed, so you'll want to act fast.
It's popular for many reasons, including its uncomplicated nature, ease of use for travel and fun factor. Yep, "fun" was a recurring descriptor in the reviews. The heat panel is stainless steel, which is anti-rust and anti-oxidation — and it lasts longer than aluminum models. Plus, it has a conveniently long cord.
The handheld design and the extra-long 9-foot cord make it a cinch to move around, so you can complete the task quickly, easily and some even say joyfully. The petite size of this 1.7-pound wonder makes it particularly popular for travel — it's like a mobile spa treatment for travel-weary outfits.
The Hilife Clothes Steamer isn't just for everyday garb. The manufacturer recommends it for use on everything from wedding dresses to plush toys, and users have loved how it's made fast work of curtains, comforters and more. Here's what Yahoo Home and Garden Writer Kristin Granero has to say: "The Hilife Steamer was incredibly effective at removing the wrinkles from my silky skirt — and that was with only a few passes of steam. For being so powerful, it's also incredibly gentle and fast (it took seconds to heat up and only a few minutes to de-wrinkle my skirt from front to back)."
More than 80,000 shoppers are also in love with this steamer.
Pros 👍
"Let me tell you, this clothes steamer is like a magic wand for your wardrobe," raved one buyer. "It's like the Harry Potter of home appliances — waving its wand (or nozzle) and making your clothes look like they just came out of the dry cleaners."
"This is a great little steamer!" wrote another satisfied customer. "I hate to iron and don't need my clothes absolutely perfect, just nice and presentable, and this does the trick! Very easy to use, quick to heat up and does a great job [of] getting wrinkles out!"
A third superfan said, "If you don't have an iron, this is the next best thing. It literally takes one minute for it to heat up, then you are ready for wrinkle-free clothes. I'm obsessed with this."
One jetsetter wrote that it was the "best small steamer I've had!" adding: "Heats fast, has great steam output and with the extra long cord, I'm able to hang the garment on the shower rod to steam. Really convenient for taking along on a recent trip."
"I used this steamer on my fiancé's wedding shirt and it worked way better than I was expecting!" exclaimed a five-star fan. "I have tried using irons in the past and have actually ruined shirts, so I wanted to give a steamer a try and I was not disappointed! Very easy to use!"
Cons 👎
"Easy to use!" echoed a generally pleased reviewer. "I used this for several items of clothing, and I was so pleasantly surprised! The only complaint I would have is that the water runs out too quickly. It still does a lot of clothes, though."
A final shopper said it would've been nice if "it had a stand for clothes," but stressed that "it works well and is effective at removing wrinkles."
If you are wishing for wrinkle-free clothing at home and on the fly, this may be your $24 ticket. Happy travels!
And to keep your clothes clean while you're away from home, these Tide Liquid Travel Sink Packets are good to have on hand:

Travelers Say These $39 Hiking Pants Are Better Than High-end Styles

You know you've found a pair of quality hiking pants when they cost more than $100; when it comes to outdoor gear, a higher price point usually indicates higher quality. But we've uncovered a pair of under-$40 hiking pants that are an exception to that rule, with thousands of travelers comparing them to fan favorites that cost several times more. Boasting over 14,000 perfect five-star ratings, Amazon's top-selling Baleaf Hiking Pants have shoppers saying they're a close competitor for higher-end alternatives from Outdoor Research, The North Face, Kühl, and PrAna. According to reviewers, they're as lightweight as any hot-weather hiking pants on the market, though they've also proven just as suitable for wet and cold conditions, making them a reliable, seasonal staple. These Baleaf Hiking Pants, on sale for just $39, are the No. 1 best-selling hiking pants on Amazon, racking up almost 20,000 ratings within the two years they've been listed. They're made of a stretchy, lightweight blend of 90 percent polyester and 10 percent spandex and provide a UPF rating of 50+. The sweat-wicking material is designed to breathe, dry quickly, and protect your skin from the sun while clocking thousands of steps on the trail. The elastic waist is has an adjustable drawstring, and the ankle cuffs have drawcords that can be tightened shut, keeping bugs and twigs at bay. These joggers also have four roomy zippered pockets to keep your essentials safe: Two on the hips, one on the rear, and one on the left thigh. Despite their budget-friendly price point, many have called them the best pants they've ever owned for hiking or travel. One impressed reviewer said that they're comparable to the $89 Splash Roll-up Pants by Kühl, while another shopper reported that their 'high quality' rivals that of a pair they've previously purchased from Outdoor Research. After testing them out on the notoriously wet, 11-mile Mist Trail in Yosemite National Park, one hiker said they liked their Baleaf joggers better than a $90 version from The North Face. They liked them so much, in fact, they now own five pairs. In addition to sporting them on hiking trails and backpacking trips lasting up to three weeks, reviewers have also worn them while riding all-terrain vehicles in Canada, climbing over lava rocks in Costa Rica, mountain biking in Colorado, kayaking in Utah, and traversing freezing, snow-covered Alps in Switzerland. One customer who lives on a sailboat said they bought these hiking pants after they were recommended by other sailors. 'I didn't realize what I was getting myself into,' they wrote. 'We left the dock on a long trip on August 4, and it's now Thanksgiving, and I have worn these pants almost every single day since,' they continue, sharing that they're easy to rinse out and hang to dry while onboard. These best-selling Baleaf hiking pants have been tested on African safaris and the ice sheets of Antarctica alike by Amazon shoppers, and they continue to receive emphatic praise for their durability, breathability, stretch, and water resistance. As for their comfort? Reviewers say that they're so comfy, you could sleep in them. Have an outdoor adventure on the horizon? Read on for more highly rated hiking pants, all under $40 at Amazon. At the time of publishing, the price started at $39. Love a great deal? Sign up for our T+L Recommends newsletter and we'll send you our favorite travel products each week.

I wear these Sweaty Betty running shorts so much I need a pair for every day of the week — luckily they're 53% off right now

I'm very picky when it comes to finding the perfect pair of running and workout shorts. They need to handle sweat, stay put during exercise, and, of course, make me feel good while wearing them. Earlier this year, I found just that pair, the Sweaty Betty Power 6" shorts, and right now you can grab them on Amazon for 53% off. Tidal Blue is my personal favorite, and it is currently the color with the biggest discount and the lowest price I have ever seen for these shorts. The black version, which is ideal for pairing with almost anything, is also on sale for 33% off. I can't guarantee how long these deals will last, but I can promise that these shorts will keep you comfortable, supported, and ready to sweat in. These Sweaty Betty biker shorts are perfect for everything from running to strength training. Sweat-wicking fabric keeps you comfortable, an adjustable waistband ensures the perfect fit, and pockets let you store your essentials. Save $42 on them today! The Sweaty Betty Power 6" Shorts must be tired of the sight of my washing machine. I have worn them non-stop this summer on runs, hikes, and even just lounging, and they rarely get a day off. It has come to the point where I need to accept that I need a color for every day of the week, which works out well because Amazon sells a nice selection of colorways. Just be sure to check the prices, as they can vary according to color. Biker shorts have gotten a little trendy recently, and as a result, quality can vary, with some brands prioritizing fashion over function. If you need reassurance that the Sweaty Betty Power 6" Biker Shorts perform as well as they look, I can assure you they do. I tackled the London Marathon in them this year on a very hot day and could not have run in a comfier pair of shorts. They stayed put, managed my sweat, didn't cause any chafing, and completed my full marathon outfit because I believe in 'look good, feel good' on the road.
