Setting up this steamer is a breeze, no matter how little experience you have with ironing. With the Rowenta X-Cel, you’re getting the ultimate level of convenience. The water tank is easy to access, a Velcro wrap secures the cord for flexible storage, and a built-in hook lets you hang the steamer on the back of a chair.

With its ergonomic design, this steamer is as comfortable to hold as it is easy to use. Instead of being bulky like some steamers, this one is very lightweight, and you get a firm grip without having your hand cramp up. That’s partly thanks to the locking mechanism, which delivers continuous steam without your having to hold a button down. The steam output is not as powerful as that of some steamers, but that’s what makes this one perfect for delicate fabrics. It also comes with three attachments specifically designed for delicates, upholstery, and lint removal.

Steaming your drapes, beddings, and tapestries has never been easier. The steamer is also effective at what it does, with both the options of continuous steam and burst of steam.

Why you should buy the BLUETTI AC240 all-weather portable power station

Imagine for a moment that you're camping with your family, hiking through the great outdoors, or even taking a long, scenic road trip through the countryside. In all of these situations, even when you're off-grid, you'll still need reliable access to power to charge your phone and tablet(s) and power up other electronics -- like a coffee maker when you wake up in the morning. Of course, power stations and power outlets don't exist randomly out in the wild. You could use your vehicle, but that will drain the battery and, in some cases, still won't provide enough power for what you want to do. Cue the BLUETTI AC240 portable power station and devices like it.
