If you've ever dragged out the ironing board just to smooth one shirt, you know the appeal of a handheld steamer. But what if the same tool could also press fabric like an iron? The Conair Turbo ExtremeSteam GS59Z is designed to do both, combining high-powered steam with a heated aluminum soleplate for clothing, curtains, upholstery, and other household fabrics.
Quick Verdict
The GS59Z is a practical buy at USD 49.99 if you want a single device that can steam hanging garments and press fabric directly. It warms in about 20 seconds, has a refillable water tank, and includes a creaser for sharp pleats. For most everyday touch-ups, this is a strong value.
Who It Suits
If you're tired of jacket wrinkles on a hanger, curtain folds that refuse to fall out, or an upholstered chair that looks tired before guests arrive, this steamer fits. It's compact and portable enough to move around the house, and the versatile design means you can switch between steaming and pressing without changing tools.
What Stands Out from the Listed Details
The defining detail is the heated, quilted aluminum soleplate. You can press it directly against appropriate fabrics for a polished, iron-like finish, which is more than a typical garment steamer can do. The 1875W heating system gives it serious power for a cordless handheld, and it reaches temperature in about 20 seconds. Removable attachments include a silicone band that pulls fabric taut and a fabric spacer for delicate or bulky fabrics, which extends the steamer beyond shirts. And if you want a crisp line, the built-in creaser lets you create pleats in trousers or skirts without setting up a board.
Meaningful Trade-Offs
The main thing to weigh is the open-box condition: you're getting an open-box unit rather than a factory-sealed one. The handheld format also means you're supporting the device while you work, which can get tiring on taller items or a long pile of clothes. It's better suited to quick refresh sessions than a full ironing marathon.
