efficacy of pants pressers?
I always press my pants because they're pure cotton. And because they
were properly tailored to measure, so pressing them makes them last longer, too. I'm intruiged by the pants-presser appliances I've seen (for example, at Hammacher Schlemmer). Do these things really work well? |

In article .com, of
http://groups.google.com uttered I always press my pants because they're pure cotton. And because they were properly tailored to measure, so pressing them makes them last longer, too. I'm intruiged by the pants-presser appliances I've seen (for example, at Hammacher Schlemmer). Do these things really work well? Can't honestly comment - I'm allergic to ironing. Why does pressing prolong the life of the garment? -- AJH no email address supplied |

If you take a bit of care you can also press tops in them. I often use one
in a hotel when I am working away from home. I would like one at home but not sure how much power they use - they are switched on for quite some time for one item. Helena "Charlie" wrote in message ... The boyfriends stepbrother has a corby and he works in the city in London. You can't tell the difference between them being pressed "properly" and from being in the corby! He did my suit trousers while I was there last and it made a hell of a difference to them! I actually didn't look scruffy! Charlie. "Charlotte" wrote in message ... wrote: I'm intruiged by the pants-presser appliances I've seen (for example, at Hammacher Schlemmer). Do these things really work well? My father's third ex-wife's new husband-like-person gets all of his suits bespoke in London. He swears by his Corby 3300 (or a model number like that). I've seen it work. It is great, he puts them in the press, pushes a button, and gets perfectly pressed trousers X minutes later. (I think the 3300 has the variable-timing cycles, one of their models has only one cycle) I intend to get one as soon as I have a house. They're only about $100 on eBay and what a time saver! (of course right now I don't press my trousers at all, but I do want to look nicer at work someday). -Charlotte |

wrote in message oups.com... I always press my pants because they're pure cotton. Most arent silly enough to 'press' pure cotton jeans. And because they were properly tailored to measure, so pressing them makes them last longer, too. Bull****. I'm intruiged by the pants-presser appliances I've seen (for example, at Hammacher Schlemmer). Do these things really work well? Its unlikely they'd be able to sell them if they didnt. |
