Steamfast SF-717 Home-and-Away Mini Steam Iron

Admittedly, your average traveler looking to hike the world’s trails, climb soaring mountains, fish the trout-filled rivers of Montana or camp in Mammoth Cave are not going to have much in the way of a need for a travel iron. However, for the rest of us, whether for heading to the club or a business meeting, a powerful, lightweight travel iron is a must. This is where Steamfast comes in with its SF-717 Home-and-Away Mini Steam Iron, ideal for those looking for something that heats up fast. This magnificent piece will only set you back about $30, and one pound of your luggage allowance.

The Steamfast comes with its own travel bag and, for those that travel overseas, it offers dual-voltage capability so you can continue to charge your phone with the voltage convertor as you ready yourself for a night on the town. It’s non-stick, press plate is just that and for those that hand wash clothes in a hotel sink an iron is a must. With the airlines charging an arm and a leg for additional luggage, its been a number of years since I’ve seen people traveling with a garment bag and without one you’ll need to do some pressing of your own and this travel iron will get the job done.
