Jiffy Steamer J 2000 vs. Jiffy Steamer J 2 I've read that the J 2 has an aluminum body and is less ergonomic than the J 2000. Does anyone know if one is better than the other?

J2 is the older and original style. J2000 is an updated version. The inner parts & boiler are the same in both. The hose and head are the same in both. There are two major differences: The body on the J2 is aluminum whereas on the J2000 is a durable plastic. Thus the J2's shell is more durable, but the J2000 is pretty tough also. It's not like you're going to bang this thing around anyway. The J2 uses an inverted water jug that many people complain about it falling out if bumped. The J2000 has a water tank that sits more securely. Both units steam the same, so get the J2000 - it's an upgraded design. J2 is the older and original style. J2000 is an updated version.

I asked Jiffy about this. The rep said that the 2000 is preferred because the water bottle is locked in place. He said that the J2's water bottle is just held by the gravity of the water in the bottle and that when the water gets low, it can leak slightly. He also said that the j2000 fits under a counter better, as the water bottle is lower profile. Mine just came in the mail today!

This is the latest model, but don't know if the issue with the frequent steam button has been addressed. However, there's a link in some of the negative review comments section where the buttons can be purchased for $5 a piece. I wouldn't let the button deter the decision to buy this steam generator. It's the best on the market, in this price range.

there is no difference. They are one in the same. Size 2 is a 6.5" steamer.

I hate this steamer. It has a totally inflexible hose with no control over steam. I owned clothing stores for years and sold all my steamers with the stores and went to buy a new one and this was all I could find. It is still in the original box unused. My previous steamers had steam control on the handle and flexible hoses which were much longer and way more manageable than the Jiffy.

I LOVE my iron...I've had no problems with it, I always override the auto shut-off, and the steam stays on without keeping my finger on the button. I use it constantly and love it!

This version is the model that comes with a detachable handheld steamer (BDH1850SM). What you are referring to is the model below this one which is BDH1760SM. BDH1760SM comes with what is called a Lift and Reach feature which is the triangular head you are referring to and does not come with the handheld steamer like in this current 2in1 model (BDH1850SM) on this page.

Sound quality is superior to the UE 6000's but both serve different functions. This is a dj headphone meant for djing and beat matching. The UE 6000's is built for comfort and does not swivel. If you are looking for something on a budget and do not need swivel. I'd go for the 6000's. If you're looking for a dj headphone with superior sound and build construction, I would go with the HDJ 2000.

I don't think there is a difference, the 200j is the item number for the model 200. The only difference in any Jasper jig is the size circles it will cut. So just make sure it will cut the size you need. The 200 will do 2 1/4" up 18 3/16". Which for me was plenty of size options, anything smaller can be done with a hole saw typically.

Petite is very tiny if you want to have tighter curls use that for hair around your face. The small is a bit bigger and would use them on the top of your head for the more lift. I have never found a better steamer then the carouso steam rollers. It is simple but effective and keeps your hair from being dried out. loved them when my hair was long and would not hold a curl. Found these and my worries were over. Thanks for asking. :D

With a *proper* transformer (converter), that should be no problem. Check all the specs and make sure the transformer is capable to handle heavy duty appliances like this steamer. In doubt? Contact Jiffy.

Probably, although it shoots out a much stronger stream of steam than a unit designed specifically for fabric steaming, like the Jiffy: J-2000 Jiffy Garment Steamer with Plastic Steam Head, 120 Volt

I've had them both... My mistake was thinking I could run them every day all summer. I started noticing oil slicks on my water surface and found out the hard way that I was burning them up. The hybrid is more powerful and will clean a 15x30 pool in about an hour. The jr. Take longer and the cord tends to tangle after awhile. After each use you'll have to completely straighten before the next use, or you'll burn out the motor. You must leave in the pool for about an hour after cleaning to let the unit cool. Also make sure that if you have it on a timer, you'll need to make sure it's in the water. I liked them while they worked, but opted to start using the pool blaster max vacuum and it works great. Micro bags take out the mustard algae and cleans/charges easily. I hope this helps...

I tried both the 230 and 240 today at the local Dick's Sporting Goods store. The only 230 they have for sale is the floor model which has been badly abused. I really liked the 240 better. Better console and graphics, better seat. It's actually cheaper for me to buy the 240 locally and pay the sales tax than order from Amazon and pay shipping with the danger of having it arrive in pieces as many other reviewers have experienced. The difference in warranty doesn't really bother me.

J&J;, now this makes it three! I looked at this computer at Best Buy today and am leaning toward it, but would like to know the difference also!

Gee, they seem to be the same. My Steam-It came with all the listed accessories and has the clips for attaching your own cleaning pads (towels). I wonder if one is a newer generation. You could call an Oreck store and ask.

I've spent the past week and a half researching and reading reviews from Amazon and other websites on these 2 irons. After reading the side-by-side comparison I decided to go with the cheaper iron since I have no use for vertical steaming or a detachable water tank. Thanks a lot for the helpful link.:)
