Some people don't mind wandering out into public wearing creased clothes, but some people are not happy about it at all, whether they're at home or on holiday.
It can be time consuming and sometimes even a challenge to fight with an iron board to banish the creases, and if you're on holiday it can be even more tricky to find the equipment you need, while on a business trip, when making a first impression is vital, it makes it even more important.
The Rolipo handheld steamer is a product that could be the answer, described as 'perfect' by one happy customer, and now reduced by 20% from £34.99 to £27.99 on Amazon.

The manufacturer states that the Rolipo handheld steamer has been designed for versatility, and delivers consistent steam for various materials including silk wool, cotton, and denim, and with no setting changes needed. The large-capacity tank supports up to 15 minutes of uninterrupted steaming, ideal for tackling multiple garments in one go, without frequent refills.
The 2.1-metre cord also allows easy movement around your clothes rail or curtains—no need to stay close to the plug socket while the unit itself is compact and easy to store or pack in a suitcase and take with you.

One five-star reviewer says: "Great steamer, easy to use. Very good quality steamer. Heats up fast, removes wrinkles quickly, and is easy to handle. Perfect for daily use and travel" while another comments: " It heats up really fast, has a large water tank, and can be used vertically or horizontally. The locking trigger is a thoughtful touch. It worked well on cotton shirts and trousers, upholstery, and is a great companion for holidays."
Alternatives to the steamer are the Russell Hobbs Steam Genie 27220 Garment Steamer priced £34 from Argos and described as 'doing the job well' and the BREVILLE Elite Diamond Ceramic Clothes Steamer in black and copper costing £49.99 after a £50 reduction from Currys.

But the Rolipo handheld steamer has impressed one customer with a specific health condition, who was initially sceptical but then over-joyed, saying: "Thought it was a gimmick but now I use it more than the iron. It's much more convenient than getting the iron out, and then the ironing board. Then putting everything back. I have carpal tunnel in my wrist and avoided getting one years ago as they were too heavy. But now they are much lighter for me to use. Lighter than the iron. Brilliant."
However one buyer was not so happy, saying: "Larger and heavier than I expected. Would have taken quite a bit of room in my carry-on luggage. Needed something smaller, had to return. Would be perfect for home use rather than travel, unless you're checking in a bag." Another customer was not convinced the steamer can tackle thicker fabrics, commenting: "Bought to steam bridal party dresses and it was a waste of money".

"The 400ml water tank allows for extended use without frequent refills, and the continuous steam function means I don't have to constantly press a button. Its lightweight and compact design make it perfect for travel, ensuring I look polished wherever I go."
