Now this is what I call a steamer. I've never had a garment steamer before, but wow this Shark steamer is awesome. It works like a charm! To start, there were just about 5 or so pieces to put the steamer together, but I don't think the instructions were great. I was doing pretty well piecing it together until I had to put the end of the metal rod into the base. I was having major issues trying to fit it into the tree shaped plastic piece. I think the directions made more sense than the diagrams did. To sum it up, you need to unscrew that plastic piece then attach the bottom of the metal rod into it then screw it back on. I was just trying to place the rod into it without taking it off of the base. Besides that, I managed to put it together fairly quickly and wow does it work. It comes with a funnel in order to pour water into the small opening. This makes things much less messy. I pretty much love everything about this. I love how you can use it in its stand and that you can make it portable. I haven't tried it in the stand yet, but I did try it in portable mode. Also the rolling base is actually a little heavy, so it's very nice it rolls easily. Also, FYI, the black fabric over the bottom of the hose is zip tied on but it's supposed to stay on. I cut the zip ties off, which I'm assuming I was supposed to, then I almost cut the black fabric off but I saw it in the picture on the box. It's covering some metal rings. To see how well it worked I hung up a garment, filled the base with tap water, and started steaming it in an up and down motion, never leaving the steam in one spot. I chose a fabric that wrinkles very easily. The tag states it is 100% rayon contrast, 100% polyester lining, and 100% polyester. See the before and after pictures for the great results. This steamer worked its magic so fast I was so amazed. I had to look back at my before picture to even remember how bad it was. If you are looking for a great garment steamer, this has got to be it.

okay quality ... alright results
I recieved this product as a member of the walmart spark reviewer program.My first impression with the steamer were not good. Out of the package there was condensation within the water compartment which signifies that it was used prior, though the product is supposed to be brand new. This notion was supported by wear and dirt underneath the wheel tracks and bottom compartment. The setup process is fairly easy. There will be some difficulty twisting the hose component to the water housing unit due to obstruction. I found it easier to remove the water housing unit from the base and install the hose first. It comes with a funnel but the unit does not have a place to secure, so you will need to find a place for it (very inconvenient).once plugged in the steam output was okay. It works well on dress shirts but when the clothing is made of thicker material, you will need to work a lot harder to get the wrinkles out. Similarly, it is not efficient to use with large traditional garments and suits (the main reason i got it). It requires a significant amount of energy. Also, it would be nice to have a clip at the bottom that holds the bottom of shirts so i don't burn my hand from holding the shirt straight when i am steam the bottom portion. I likely wouldn't recommend this to a friend.

    Steam is better!!!
    This was my first time using a clothing steamer and I have to say that steaming your clothes is much better than ironing! Haha I made sure I used the distilled water inside the tank and i made sure all the parts were connected and put together correctly. I offered to let my daughter’s preschool teacher use this steamer to steam their graduation gowns for their graduation ceremony but my daughter’s preschool teacher was like me and had never used one before. So I decided to do it and I found that once the steamer in plugged in and turned on you just need to wait a little bit about a minute or so and let the water heat up and start steami. Once you see a good amount of steam coming through then you can hang the garment and place the steam head under the clothes and pull towards you in a downward motion which was easiest for me. Thankfully the shark steamer has a telescopic pile that has a hook on the end to hang your garment and it goes pretty tall up for longer garments. It took me a few tries to the hang of it and find my rhythm but once I did I liked it better than trying to iron out the wrinkles! And the steam helps with smells and bringing the freshness back. I do like this shark steamer I wish I had others to compare it too, it felt like it was a little while before it was ready to use but I’m sure that’s with all steamers. I did notice if the hose wasn’t connected right the steam wouldn’t stay steaming it would steam and then stop but that was me fault when I would take the water tank off I would move the hose around. But I do like this better than ironing and I would recommend and it’s light weight and easy to move around on its wheels which is fantastic!

    Convenient, easy to use
    This is a convenient, easy to use Shark Garment Stand Steamer. To provide this review I steamed two dresses, two skirts, a pair of slacks, two blouses, a scarf, and two jeans. Yes, it steams heavy weight fabrics like jeans too. I was also pleasantly surprised that I can do my curtains while hanging from the window, no need to remove them from the windows. It is all possible due to the convenient portable canister. I read the instructions on the box flaps and it explains how the stand mode and portable modes work. However, there is a helpful owners guide for setup. The steaming unit is small and slim. Easy setup, with an adjustable height stand, does not requiere a lot of storage space and it works well. I love using it because it easily gets the job done. However, I do recommend you read the important owners guide warnings, for example, do not touch the steam nozzle when on, water cap must be secure or it will not emit steam, etc. I have used other steamers and this model works well. I do recommend it, I love it. Once again, you can trust another well built, easy to use Sharp product.

    I really like it......
    I really like the steamer. It's a great tool for wrinkles if you don't want to iron, or can't use the iron on the clothing. I used it on a couple of dresses that said "Do Not Iron", and it worked perfectly. It's simple to use too. I thought it would be bigger, but it's about the size of a hand vac. It's on wheels too, so you can use it anywhere. I like that it comes with it's own hang up bar. So you can do one piece of clothing at a time. Also the handle where the steam comes out has bristles on it. So the bristles can get stuff like dog hair off of it too. I really do like it.

    Portable steam iron
    Good for doing something that does not require a crisp crease like down the arms of a shirt or on dress pants. The body of a shirt is good and for the delicate fabrics that will not tolerate a regular iron. It's great for curtains while hanging. It holds enough water for a big job and is removable from the base to make it portable. Has a hook to hang an item while steaming and the holder for the steam nozzle is very convenient with quick in and release. Holder and garment hook are on a adjustable height rod which is easy to adjust. Instructions are clear and is easily assembled, no tools. Small enough to fit in a closet etc for a quick ready to use and base has wheels. The steam bonnit protects clothes from water marks and is removable to clean. Heats quickly and ready to go in just a couple of mins. Two things I would like is clips to wind up the cord when not in use and I also had some problems filling the tank. It's kinda small at at an angle that I ended up spilling the water.

    Saves TIME and MONEY!!
    This is my new toy!!I'm always preparing my family for the week which includes ironing or taking clothes to the cleaners. I've seen these on infomercials but never really thought it works. IT REALLY WORKS!! What was I thinking?! This is something I needed long time ago...lol. It looks like I took it to the cleaners. Very easy set-up and just add tap water and watch the majic happen. It didn't even take long. Very time consuming. The Shark Garment Steamer GS300 just saved me alot of trips and money!

    Great steamer
    I was pleasantly surprised at how well this garment steamer got the wrinkles out. I generally prefer to iron most fabrics, but the Shark steamer made the job much easier. Although, I would probably only use this steamer mainly for steaming drapes, pillows, couches, etc. The steamer comes on a roll around detachable base with an adjustable pole and hook to hold your garment whilst dewrinkling your fabrics. The long hose that is attached makes steaming and refreshing your curtains a breeze. And because the base is detachable, the steamer becomes portable, thus more freedom to move about while refreshing the heck out of your stuff. To be honest, I was intimidated by the steamer, at first, because of the size, and the fact that I had never used a steamer of this capacity. But once I got the hang of it and the steam was rolling, then it was smooth sailing. It made me want to steam the whole dang house and its contents; I still might do this. It is claimed that this steamer can kill bed bugs. Now, I don't know if this statement is true or not, but the fact that I can steam my mattress with it and extend the "life" of the mattress a little, makes the purchase worth it. I wished I had gotten one sooner. Overall, I would recommend this product.

    What a Great Steamer!...
    Thank you, Walmart Sparks Reviewer Program, for showing me the light! Thanks for giving me the opportunity to review the "Shark Garment Stand Steamer" and for giving me the chance to realize there is a better way to iron clothes... without an iron. Being a single guy , I have had to learn to wash a dish, and launder my own clothes. I also have the task pf ironing them. With this steamer, I have discovered that there is a better and easier method of having nicely pressed and fresh looking garments. The stand was easy to assemble, and even easier to use. I was pleased at the fact that it didn't take up much space. Fully assembled, you can set it in any corner of the room. It can be used on the stand or as a hand held device. I preferred the stand. Much easier to get to every area of the piece that you are steaming. The steamer can also be used to on drapes and get this...the steam kills bedbugs and dust mites! I had never realized that. The pole telescopes for easy height adjustment and the steamer features a securely fitting water tank cap. No leakage. It works like those fabric steamers used by professionals. Great for clothing and any household fabric. Steam irons are great, but I have noticed that I am using this steamer more often. A great tool.

    Wonderful Fabric Steamer and Sanitizer
    The Shark Professional Fabric Steamer arrived in a nice thick and heavy brown cardboard box by FedEx. Once the product box was opened all items were wrapped in plastic and arranged very well with a cardboard caddy to prevent damage during shipping. Assembly was extremely easy no tools required, just follow the instruction in the owners manual. The Shark Steamer is lightweight and the telescopic pole makes it easy to steam a garment with the hanger hook and to store the steamer away for future use. It is also portable simply remove the steam unit off the base by pulling the release button, hold the tank close to your body just be careful not to touch the steam nozzle or the metal spring when using they also get hot. This step makes it easy and convenient you can now move it around the house room to room. It also can be taken on a vacation to freshen folded clothing after being in a suitcase. The Steam output is super hot by using the steamer fabric bonnet it gets out the toughest wrinkles without leaving water spots, but still gentle on the fabric. This will also save on taking expensive clothing to the dry cleaners. Since the Shark Steamer gets so hot it also kills bed bugs and eliminates dust mites. This makes it safe to use around children and animals no harsh chemical just hot steam. A full tank of distilled water last about 50 minutes on a contentious use. The Shark Steamer will freshen, remove wrinkles and sanitize most garments (use caution on silks). It could also be used on other textile fabric including microfiber on a sofa, love seat, bedding and drapes. The owners manual recommends not to be used on leather, suede, vinyl or plastic items. Let the unit cool for at least 30 minutes before emptying the left over water in the tank. It would make a great gift. Another great product by Shark.
