Xiaomi Zanjia portable steamer

I already have several smart home appliances from the Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi in my arsenal.Absolute

Favorites were a robot vacuum cleaner, a cordless vacuum cleaner with a large presence of practical attachments, an electric kettle, and a stationary fan.Recently, this list has been expanded with a new, no less useful device — a handheld steamerXiaomi Zanjia GT-301W, which I will review further.

Xiaomi steamer review

The main feature that attracts me to most of Xiaomi's products is the ability to use them "here and now".For example, I don't need to take out, pull the wire and plug in a regular vacuum cleaner to remove random debris.I just quickly grab the Roidmi F8 cordless vacuum cleaner from the base and vacuum the right place.The Xiaomi Zanjia steamer, which I always have at hand and which excludesThe need to take out and disassemble the ironing board, plug in the iron and wait for it to heat up.Its main advantage is portability.

Design

At first glance, the steamer from Xiaomi seems very similar to a hair dryer - you can even unknowingly confuse it.As is the case with most devices from this manufacturer, the design is as minimalistic as possible, austere and fits well into any interiorQuite compact size, light weight.Even with prolonged work, I did not feel fatigue in my hand.The device weighs very little, much less than an ordinary iron.

Using

Everything is as simple and, most importantly, fast. First you need to pour water into the container. A matte translucent water container is attached to the back of the device. In order to remove it or fasten it is enough to make a small turn. Water can be poured directly from under the tap (filtered) by directing the jet into a special hole that closes with a silicone valve. By the way, the manufacturer does not indicate special requirements for water, so I always pour water from the tap through the filter.

Now that the water container is installed, you just need to plug the wire into the socket and wait about30 secondsUsually, I plug in the device and then start taking out the thing I want.By the time I take it out and hang it on a hanger, everything is ready to go.By the way, if anything, there is a corresponding indicator here.

Hold the only button on the handle, which is used to supply steam, and steam the thing you need.I would like to note that the Zanjia GT-301W can be used both horizontally and vertically - this does not affect the quality of work in any way.Therefore, you can iron things directly on hangers, or you can lay them out on an ironing board or other horizontal surface.As soon as you release the button, the steam supply stops.

Recommendations

Several weeks of heavy useThe Xiaomi Zanjia Garment Steamer steamer made up the overall impression of this smart device. If we are talking about tissue options that can be steamed with it, then there are no prohibitions. I give them absolutely everything: from thin, silk to dense, draped, woolen, etc. Another thing is that he steams them in different ways. With synthetic, thin, silk, knitted and delicate fabrics, he copes with two times. But in the case of an autumn coat or a tight jacket, you will have to spend a little more time.

Based on this, I can safely say that thisthe device is simply necessary for those who travel often, travel on business trips, etc. Due to its small dimensions, it can be easily thrown into a bag or suitcase and removed at the right time to iron your item.

Can steaming from Xiaomi becomealternative to the classic iron? Why not. With his appearance, I stopped taking out a stationary iron, and now I put all things in order only with him. But if we are talking about ironing bedding or other overall things, it will certainly be more convenient to use an iron here.

In my life, the steamer became a daily assistant in the morning when I was going to work: I took a thing from the closet, quickly steamed it directly on the hanger and dressed.

Separately, I want to note the presence of a metal plate in Xiaomi Zanjia, which heats up during steam supply and performsYou can not only steam the garment, but also touch the fabric with this plate, as if ironing it.In my previous steamer from another manufacturer, there was no such plate - this was its disadvantage.Plus, there's another extra attachment to make it easier to handle the coat.You can find all the technical specifications of the device below.
