How to choose
Heat-up time and tanks
Heat-up time sets how soon you start: the OGHom heats in 20 seconds, the HiLIFE and SpinKaze in 30 seconds, and the Rowenta and SALAV in 45 seconds. Tank size sets session length: the SALAV holds 1.8L, the Rowenta holds 51 oz, the SpinKaze holds 370ml, the HiLIFE holds 300ml and the OGHom holds 150ml. Compare heat-up with tank size, since a bigger tank suits longer sessions.
Vertical steaming and support
Vertical steaming needs support for hanging garments: the Rowenta uses a Steam and Press vertical support system for one-handed steaming, and the SALAV uses an extra-wide hanger with a dual-bar frame. The HiLIFE, SpinKaze and OGHom work vertically or flat, so they suit hanging clothes and collars alike. Check support against the garments you steam.
Weight and packing
Weight sets how easily the steamer moves: the HiLIFE weighs 1.74 lb, the SpinKaze weighs 1.8 lb, the Rowenta weighs 10.6 lb and the SALAV weighs 11.2 lb. The Rowenta folds for storage, and the OGHom fits easily into luggage. Compare weight with storage for your space.
