Hello, On Celebrity Connie this September, and we iron everything each day to wear, and looking at ironing costs on board it's going to be $$$'s

 

Has anyone used these, USA based company? World's First Eco Friendly Clothing Steamer - InstaSteam (instasteampod.com) 

 

I live in the UK and deliver is expensive, but would be worth it if they are good and to be a few?  🙂

I cannot vouch for this particular product, but we find just using the shower to steam some things helps to take out wrinkles. 

My other advice would be if you're adverse to spending money to press your clothes is to: 1)Rethink the types of clothes you bring on your cruise and 2)Try to be less set in a frame of mind that you have to press your clothes everyday whilst on holiday. Compromise is a wonderful thing. 

Lastly, many a times if I feel something in my suitcase isn't up to par and we are at a precruise hotel I would spend a little time using the iron in our hotel room to do some quick pressing. But nowadays I bring shirts that are considered 'iron free' so there aren't the same issues. These men's shirts are just as comfortable as the ones that aren't pretreated as no iron. In fact the blue flower print shirt I'm wearing in my Cruise Critic Avatar pic is a no iron shirt(Taken on the Summit). This is what I mean by rethinking the types of clothes you bring on holiday.

I hang the shirts while we shower and then cover them with a dry cleaner plastic bag - works great (though not as crisp as freshly ironed) and doesn't cost me anything.  Most of our clothes are knit or easy care fabric to eliminate ironing.

THIS is what i mean when I say to rethink the types of clothes one takes away while traveling.

Reviews on Amazon are a bit mixed. Also kind of pricey since you have to use one pouch per garment. Does not seem worth it to me.
