J-2M Jiffy Garment Steamer with Metal Steam Head, 120 Volt

But I was convinced that I needed a steamer (and I was right; ironing is for the birds, as any bird will tell you), so I looked at all the plastic steamer things that you can buy for half the price of a Jiffy Steamer and asked myself, "Do you really need more plastic crap laying around the house that will break or wear out in six months and look ugly while it's sucking?" " and the answer was "no," because no one needed it, so I rolled up my pennies, returned some empty bottles, and bought this thing. br>br>It's big, it's bulky, and it's hot (apparently, heat is required to convert water to steam, who knew?). ), it appears to be from a factory rather than your home or apartment - Yes, it's all of those things, but it's also a gift from the clothing gods, if you believe in gods and believe that one, or more, are dedicated solely to clothing. Isn't it true that there are multiple gods of clothing? The same god can't protect your boring Gap button down shirts while blessing your delicate, handcrafted, elaborately embroidered Indian tunics and expensive designer gowns. Don't make a fool out of yourself. br>br>The gods may be insane, but this steamer certainly isn't. You'll throw your ironing board out into the yard for the raccoons to use as a lean-to. Buy one, borrow one, or steal one and use it for 20 minutes. Your rusted old Sunbeam iron will also serve as a useful door stop. You won't need it to iron clothes because, with a machine like this that steams the wrinkles out of your clothes like a heavy, wood-burning fireplace, you'd have to be a masochist to do so. br>br>So the question isn't really who in their right mind would pay this much for a garment steamer, but who in their right mind would pay this much for a magic wand made of metal and fire. br>br> Who in their right mind wouldn't do something like that?.

I purchased the Jiffy J-Style Jiffy J-Style Jiffy Jiffy J-Style Ji In 2008, there were 4000 of them. As a result, it lasted for a total of nine years. I left the heater on all day, the water dried up, and the heating element snapped. By the way, I used to make the mistake of letting the steamer dry out. So, nine years of hard use and abuse is quite impressive. I'm sure it would have lasted twice as long if it hadn't been for the fact that it was raining. br>br>I never gave the J- a second look. 4000 because there are numerous reviews that will persuade you that Jiffy is the best steamer available on the consumer market. And if I was going to buy the best, I'd go with the flagship J-Series. 4000 br>br>I took a deep breath and opened the J-box. Up to 4000, and I'm blown away by how well it's put together- I believe it is made of heavy gauge stainless steel and brass. I placed an order for a new heating element as a result. I had to cut a wire and thermostat off after stripping a screen, and I realized I needed silicone to re-seal the tank. To put it another way, I was quickly out of my depth with the repairs and unsure if I'd be able to put it back together in time (I steam my close every morning). As a result, I made the decision to place an order for the J- 2 for my room, keeping the J- 4000 in the laundry room (if I ever managed to put it back together). This is what caught me off guard: br>br> ***The J- 2, on the other hand, is a vastly superior steamer. *** The following are the reasons for this: J- br>br>Heat Up Timebr> 4000: The tank can hold about a gallon of water, possibly a gallon and a half. Starting to produce steam takes at least five minutes. 10 minutes, at most. It doesn't appear to be a long period of time. In the morning, however, I go eat breakfast or take a shower while the machine warms up, and I forget about it. Frequently, when I start it up, it is almost completely devoid of water. As a result, when I return, the machine is completely empty. And there's nothing worse than being in a hurry and realizing that the last thing you need to do before leaving the house is run the steamer over a suit jacket that's hanging over the back of a chair, only to discover that you'll have to wait five or ten minutes for the steamer to heat up.
J- The machine's water bottle remains chilled. The water is directed into a small chamber within the machine, which may be heating two cups of water. So it starts steaming in about 30 seconds, maybe a minute at most, and I never have to walk away and do something else because it starts steaming so quickly. The shirt is already percolating with a wisp of steam coming out when I take it out of the closet. The thing is already blowing steam by the time I get the pants. br>br>Checking the Water Levelbr>J- 4000: The machine has a small window on the side, but reading from it while standing is impossible (at least for me). So, to see where the water line was, I'd have to bend over and giggle at the machine. This, of course, contributed to the machine being run dry on numerous occasions. If the machine is overfilled, the water boils up through the hose and sprays boiling water out of the wand, which is inconvenient and potentially dangerous. As a result, there is a strong incentive to refrain from constantly topping off the machine. br>J- From across the room, you can see how much water is in the plastic bottle. br>br>Interval Between Fillsbr>J- 4000: Capacity is large. But, because I'd leave it on to warm up and then forget about it, it'd only run through water every three days or so.
J- I believe the bottle has a smaller capacity than the J-shaped bottle. 4000 gallon tank (but only by a small margin- The tank inside the aluminum housing is smaller than it appears, and you can't fill it all the way to the top without it boiling over). However, because I start steaming right away and turn it off right away when I'm done, the bottle lasts me about two weeks before I need to refill it. As a result, despite having a smaller capacity, it requires significantly fewer refills. br>br>Refilling Ease br>J- 4000: Fill a pitcher with water and pour it through a funnel while kneeling in front of the window, keeping an eye on the water level.
J- Simply fill the bottle and return it to the machine (the water in the small reservoir will have already begun to boil by the time you return, and the cool water in the bottle will not stop the boiling when you turn it over onto the reservoir). br>br>Spacebr>Clearly, the J- The number 2 is less than the letter J. 4000 It doesn't appear to be a huge deal. However, it makes a significant difference in the bedroom and makes moving much easier. br>br>Contrary to popular belief, there are a number of disadvantages to using this product. There is a gurgling sound coming from the reservoir because it is constantly heating cool water. And the steam is likely to be a little weaker. However, I can't tell if the steaming is any more effective. To put it another way, wrinkles are removed without the need for a second pass. The J- Instead of the coffee percolator sound, the 4000 produces a satisfyingly quiet hiss of steam. But, trust me, if you're going to use this thing on a daily basis, the J-series is the way to go. br>br>At this point, I've got everything just right. The large one is for doing a dozen shirts at a time when they come out of the machine, and the small one is for quickly getting rid of a few wrinkles in the morning. By the way, if you're debating whether or not to buy a steamer (when you already have an iron), consider whether you really need a microwave (when you already have one), a cell phone (when you already have one), or e-mail (when you already have one). (If you already own a working fax machine). It's a huge distinction.

This steamer was purchased in December 2019 for use in our church's clothing center, where it will be used to steam donated clothing. After only a year of service, our previous steamer from another manufacturer broke down due to an "open" in the fusible link, which I was unable to replace. So, after reading numerous product reviews, I decided to go with the Jiffy J- 2M Steamer for Clothes Right out of the box, I was blown away by this device. Everything about it, from the cast aluminum housing to the casters, screams quality engineering. It took me no time at all to put this together. The supplied wrench for tightening the rod set and hose to the base has magnets attached to it so it can be stored on the underside of the base, which I really like. I had steam in only a few minutes after filling the water bottle and turning it on. The water bottle is designed to be held in place by the weight of the liquid inside; The bottle will fall out of the base if the liquid level falls too low. This is an excellent design because it informs the operator that the bottle must be refilled. filled. I also enjoy the following features of this steamer: It's made in the United States, comes with a three-year warranty, and comes with a detailed user manual. Each of their steamer models has its own user manual with a complete wiring diagram and parts list. It also contains their mailing address as well as contact information (including a toll-free number) for service and ordering replacement parts. Last but not least, Jiffy has been in business since 1940, so I believe this steamer will last for many years with proper cleaning and maintenance.
