I'm Glad I Ordered This Steamer
The PurSteam steamer arrived today. I put it together and used it this evening on several items. It worked like a charm. Many wrinkles fell out of garments because of the steam from the PurSteam steamer. The unit generated steam that was plentiful and the steamer was easy to operate. I enjoyed using my new toy profitably. If someone is looking for a good steamer, from my limited experience with this model, I think it would be worth trying. But, after offering that due praise, I can't avoid a negative observation. Sure the unit was made in China. It says that plainly on the box and on the bottom of the unit itself. Nevertheless, according to everything I can see, the steamer is being handled and marketed by an American firm in Wyoming. That matters because the instructions and other information about the steamer are found in the owner's manual, which is in English. Bad English. Moreover, a sentence may be half through at the bottom of a page, but when the page is turned, there may be no trace of the remainder of the unfinished sentence at the bottom of the previous page. In turn, words are either misspelled or there are typos--same outcome. Furthermore, the instructions are sometimes worded in a cryptic manner and the statements that are made to give instructions to the assembler or operator need better illustrations. Someone who knows standard English and someone who is gifted at explaining the mechanics of assembling this steamer should have a look at the booklet and put it into better shape. If no one has the will to do so, then, someone should at least clean up the content of the booklet for the sake of buyers. It's a great product. The manual should be at least as good.
