Argos shoppers can currently buy the Tefal Pure POP Garment Steamer for £29.99, down from its usual price of £50, as part of the retailer's end of summer sale. The discount applies to both the blue and red versions of the gadget.
Fast heating and versatile use
The steamer heats up in 15 seconds, making it a quick option for busy mornings when there is no time to set up an ironing board. It can be used on garments hanging vertically or laid flat.
It produces 20g of steam per minute, giving four minutes of continuous steam. A reversible pad system is designed to handle delicate fabrics with care, and it can also be used for pet hair removal. The 2m power cable offers reach for longer items.
Shopper reviews and alternatives
At the time of writing, the £29.99 price is matched by John Lewis and Currys. One Argos shopper gave the steamer a five-star review, writing: "This is the third one I've bought for family members who used mine and loved it, works perfectly and is good for travel as smaller and lighter than a hairdryer."
The same reviewer added: "The last person who borrowed it said it worked better than one they had paid over £100 for." Another pleased buyer said: "Bought it last week and I am so pleased! It heats so quickly and removes wrinkles on your clothes in seconds! I am so pleased with this purchase."
However, one buyer deducted stars, writing: "Good steamer but cable is not long enough. I need to use an extra extension to hange item on the door and be able to steam it. I will not buy again."
