I hate ironing but having purchased an upright steamer a few weeks ago I now love it...
I originally purchased a cheap upright steamer from Amazon but it was useless so I invested in the 'so called' best steamer available, the Jiffy 2000M, which is made in the US.. like this:
They are normally about £250 but I got it really cheap via an Amazon Warehouse deal which described it as slightly damaged but it's absolutely brand new
I love it and it really makes ironing fun... it's like magic![]()

I remember that getting my arse in gear on a Sunday night to do the ironing of shirts for work was the hardest thing in the world. I don't know who invented the non-iron shirt but they should get a medal and a statue.
Not ironed a thing in years now.
