Does this steamer spit water onto the clothes?

If your clothes are hanging up straight then it won't spit water. However, it spits a little water if you're steaming your couch or anything that is laying horizontal. The steamer also stops producing steam for 30 secs and then it'll steam again, but this is only if you've been steaming for awhile.

Some "spitting" on garments, but I have not tried it on silk or delicates as listed below. I find it useful for daily maintenance for work clothes, refreshing already worn clothes, and most everyday items. Keep in mind it has no temperature control as does an iron, and it IS a steamer! I rarely use the steam function on silk or other delicate items, and if I do, even an iron has the possibility of spitting.

Yes!!!! That's what I meant in my review about it "bubbling"... :( Especially bad for silk dresses, takes forever to dry afterwards!

No. This machine spits out as much water as it does steam. Although I tried to use it on various cleaning tasks and wanted to love it, I ended up getting rid of it.

Actually I found that if you always put in the steamer basket nothing gets spit out the top. Had a mess the one time I didn't use the steamer basket and since then absolutely nothing.

No,not at all. I'm very pleased with the one I've purchased from Amazon. It does a great job with dry or wet clothes. I love it, I have no complaints!

In my opinion no. Yes you can use the steamer to wipe away the misses. But you will have to use a special cleaner to actually get rid of the organic odor and stain. Steam alone won't do it. Also please keep in mind that you can't add the cleaning solution to the steamer, that risks your steamer's performance and the cleaner will not work as well because it will be diluted with all the water.

Yes, but it's way smaller than the older models. Now these so-called "modern" models have such small agitators that it does not clean your clothes very well -- not at all like the models of past. Terrible!!!!

No. This is only a garment steamer. For floors search floor steamers instead.

Yes it does. I admit, it IS a bargain and does work (it works, doesn't usually arrive 'broken' etc.) And it doesn't stick to non-synthetic fabric. Yes, it does have bottom plate-holes and does steam through them. Just if you get this- DO be careful to make sure the heat, steam and spray settings are correct, give it plenty of warm-up time and test it on a towel, to avoid water-spots on your garments. It takes a few runs (iron a few old scrap-towels when you first get this, eg) to get itself up and going. Thanks for your question!

Yes it does. It heats up really fast too. I love this iron, it was worth every penny. It has never spit water at me ever.

Yes it does, this product however is not the best and after a few washes will allow liquid to penetrate.

Yes that is correct. This is not really a garment steamer. I use mine to steam and reshape hats.

I usually mist some clothes with water instead of using stream from the iron; especially with denim that I've forgotten to pull out the dryer in-time. But to answer your question, I feel the iron does get hot enough to use with out steam.

No. Does have a metal band around the top of each steamer, but one could remove it. The segments or top slide over that part anyway.

this steamer will do it all..plus it has the metal head with wood handle rather than plastic head plastic handle..much sturdier also no cracking or splitting..I use mine on garments and costumes..and also on light..medium and heavy sheet fabrics...

No - I don't believe I'd try that... I think it would probably get too wet. I personally have a Conair Fabric Steamer - and I think it would do the job nicely. You might want to consider something along those lines.

Yes. The steamer automatically shuts off when the water level gets too low.

Yes. I found out the hard way. It spits out hot water with the mist without the converter. With the proper voltage, it's the best facial steamer I've used. Salon quality.
