Rowenta, Steamer for Clothes, Pure Force 3in1 Steamer & Iron, 7.1 Oz Tank Capacity, Vertical Steaming, Horizontal Ironing, Lint remover, Lightweight, Auto-off, 1875 Watts, Black Clothes Steamer,DR8855

I bought this Rowenta hand steamer and it only worked once. The plug is not compatible with standard outlets, and when I used an adapter, it immediately burned it. I tried two more adapters and even a power strip – all got fried. Now the steamer doesn’t turn on at all. Extremely disappointed and honestly concerned about the safety of this product. Used only once and it’s completely useless now.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING PURCHASE. I got this “fancy”’ steamer thinking it would perform great but instead it broke merely a month of usage. When it finally started working again after leaving it untouched, it stopped working correctly ever since. I had a cheap steamer before which lasted 2 years with no failure. Save your money and get something else.

After very light use of 3 months the steamer has stopped working

The device is 110V and not compatible with the 220V power in the UAE. I purchased it from Amazon UAE and expected it to match local standards. I’d like to return it. Thanks.

Wish I could give this a minus score. Have had this item assessed by two reputable electricians who both reported it to be dangerous and a fire hazard. Item is gauged for the USA and not UK market as they are both different wattage. DO NOT BUY

Extremely powerful. Quick & efficient without taking the iron & ironing board out. Love the product. Highly recommended.

Si buscas algo que te saque de un apuro o bien, quitarle las arrugas a las camisas después de la secadora, esta es la mejor opción

I endorse this product. I have used it for two days to iron shirts, shorts, pants and even a dish towel (for practice). I also have a full size Rowenta Pro Style floor standing steamer and a conventional high end Rowenta iron. Compared to a conventional iron, the Pure Force hand held is much faster to use for anything with detail, such as shirts and pants. It takes me about 90 seconds to de-wrinkle a shirt with the Pure Force unit versus 5 minutes with a conventional iron. It heats up almost instantly, so it's practical to use it for just a single garment and then put it away. The Pure Force is also easier on your clothes especially if they have delicate fabric. However, a conventional iron does leave clothes a more "pressed" look. A conventional iron is also better if you like that creased look for your pants. I so zero advantage to the floor steamer. The hand held one is simply much better. One other comment. I saw a reviewer remark that the Pure Force is tiring to use, especially since the person reported that she had to squeeze the trigger the entire time she was steaming her laundry. This isn't true. The unit has a simple way to keep the steam on without constantly squeezing the trigger. Also, I did not find the unit to be overly heavy even when steaming a number of shirts. However, if you do find it heavy, use it horizontally on an ironing board, as you would for a conventional iron. It works great and still removes wrinkles very fast.

This item is fitted with a 2 pin plug which cannot fit UK 3 pin as the pins are flat tipped. Please can someone advise what to do?
