I don’t know, personally. But perhaps consider getting a cheap one and seeing how well it works for you. Or see if you can borrow or rent one – quite a few areas have libraries for this sort of thing, and a test could save you a lot of angst later.

I don’t have one but have been looking at options too lately. There are so many out there that it is hard to know which one to pick. Hopefully you are able to get some great ideas from other mum members. I have heard the Kmart one is good but not sure how long it would last for.

Sorry I don’t have alot of help to offer because I’ve never had a steamer but I have an iron that has a steam setting. So when I have an item of clothing that would be better with a steam rather than an iron, I press the steam button on the iron and steam it near the item of clothing without actually touching it. It’s not perfect but it works good enough for me 🙂
