Here's what I had to do to keep my Jiffy Garment Steam going for 11 years: After about 7 years it got clogged with black mold and stopped steaming. It took lots of rinsing and soaking as instructed with the recommended cleaner to unclog it. Unfortunately once those mold spores get established, they come back. The second clogging was harder to remove, requiring multiple applications of the cleaner. From this I learned it wasn't enough to remove the steamer's water container in-between sessions. The water channel inside the unit must also be emptied. You can remove the post to upend the unit and drain it, but I find this inconvenient. I now siphon the water out of the base with a clean turkey baster purchased for this use, returning excess water from the base to the distilled water container before I wipe the base unit with a paper towel. So far, so good. Love my steamer. Haven't used an iron in 11 years.
