This product is the perfect size for traveling. I put it in my carry on bag while flying, and TSA did stop my bag and pull it out. However, no problems after that. I love how well this steamer travels, as it fits perfectly in a smaller compartment of my carry on size luggage. I also really like the color. It's nice to have a pop of color rather than just white or black. As far as actually steaming clothes - the product did a pretty decent job. It took a little bit longer than my full sized steamer, which is to be expected due to the size. I would definitely use this for light steaming, but I don't know how well it would do on clothing that's completely wrinkled. It did a great job at getting minor wrinkles from traveling out. I used it on a silk blouse and had no issues with it burning the fabric or anything. Overall, a great product for travel.
