A portable steam generator includes a steam generator base including a water reservoir and a steam generation unit that is operatively fluidly connected with the water reservoir for water supply to the steam generation unit. The portable steam generator also includes an iron including a sole plate with openings so that steam can pass through the sole plate. The portable steam generator also includes a flexible hose between the steam generation base and the iron including a steam conduit that is operatively fluidly connected with both the steam generation unit and an internal cavity of the iron for supply steam to the iron. A plurality of handles allow grasping and provide portability to the steam generator.

A heat press including a body, a heat plate, a handle, a cover, a control compartment and an insulation portion. The body includes a first end and a second end. The heat plate is located proximate the first end of the body and is configured to engage ironable materials. The handle is located proximate the second end of the body and is configured to withstand forces from a user. The cover covers a portion of the body and the handle. The control compartment includes an electrical circuit, controls and a display. The control compartment is spaced away from and is at least indirectly electrically coupled to the heat plate. The insulation portion is positioned between the control compartment and the heat plate. The insulation portion includes a first layer of insulating material.

A handheld steam iron for straightening creases in wrinkled fabric is disclosed. The handheld steam iron can combine the benefits of both an iron and a steamer by providing heat and steam to a garment. The handheld steam iron can include an upper arm and a lower body. The upper arm and/or lower body can include a plate, steam chambers, or both. The steam iron can include a pump to provide fluid to the upper arm and/or lower body. The steam iron can also include a fluid reservoir that enables a user to quickly provide the liquid used for steam.

An ironing device includes: a housing, provided with a first mounting cavity, and a clip ironing steam port and a hanging ironing steam port that are connected to the first mounting cavity, where the clip ironing steam port and the hanging ironing steam port are disposed opposite to each other; a steam generation assembly, disposed in the first mounting cavity and connected to the clip ironing steam port and the hanging ironing steam port; and a clamping plate, rotatably connected to the housing and disposed opposite to the clip ironing steam port. The ironing device can implement functions of clip ironing and hanging ironing of clothing via the clip ironing steam port and the hanging ironing steam port that are disposed opposite to each other and the clamping plate. The ironing device can better adapt to different use scenarios, so that user experience is improved to a greater extent.

An iron includes a housing, a sole plate coupled to the housing and having a plurality of openings formed therein, a water reservoir in the housing, a first steam chamber in selective fluid communication with the water reservoir via a first feed channel, and a heater in thermal communication with the sole plate and the first steam chamber. The heater heats the sole plate and water in the first steam chamber received from the water reservoir to generate steam. A steam nozzle is mounted to the housing and is in fluid communication with the first steam chamber for emitting at least a first volume of the steam. A three-position switch coupled to first and second valves includes a first position where the first and second valves are closed. In a second position, the first valve is open and the second valve is closed. In a third position, the second valve is open and the first valve is closed.
