Jiffy Steamers are the leading choice in garment steamers and steaming equipment. This guide explains all of Jiffy's models and their uses. As with any new product, you are safest buying from an authorized dealer, which we are pleased to be for Jiffy Steamers.

Jiffy Steamers is the oldest and largest producer of clothes steamers and steaming products in the world, for both personal and professional use. Their steamers are easy to use, highly reliable, and made of the finest industrial quality components. They are found in clothing stores, manufacturers, private homes, upholstery shops, marine shops, milliners and haberdashers throughout the world. They have an unsurpassed selection of specialty steamers in addition to their standard lines.

As your drycleaner knows, steam is the gentlest, safest, most efficient method to remove wrinkles from fabrics. The powerful action of garment steamers penetrate the fibers, relaxes them and causes the wrinkles to release. Unlike ironing, the gentle method of steaming increases the life of clothing. Garment steamers breathe new life into fabrics; conversely, ironing crushes clothing fibers. Many garment steamer users have found that steaming is up to five times faster than conventional ironing.

Jiffy Steamers have 4 primary lines, with variations in each:

  • J-2 (basic model, mainly for home or small business use)
  • J-2000 (basic model, updated and ergonomic)
  • J-4000 (pro-line heavy duty commercial model)
  • eSteam (portable hand-held steamers for travel)

Within the J-2 line, variations include:

  • J-2 (standard steamer with hose and plastic head)
  • J-2B (steam brush instead of standard handle/nozzle)
  • J-2M (metal steam head with wooden handle)
  • J-2W (for wig steaming)
  • J-1 (for hats, no hose or head included)

Within the J-2000 line, variations include:

  • J-2000 (standard steamer with hose and plastic head)
  • J-2000B (steam Brush instead of standard handle/nozzle)
  • J-2000M (Metal steam head with wooden handle)

Within the Pro-Line J-4000 Series, there are more options:

  • J-4000 (standard Pro-Line steamer)
  • J-4000A (w/ upholstery brush)
  • J-4000B (w/ steam Brush, 7.5' hose and longer rod set)
  • J-4000C (w/ Carpet steamer head)
  • J-4000D (Drapery steamer, 7.5' hose and longer rod set)
  • J-4000DM (same as D, but with metal head)
  • J-4000H (professional grade Hat steamer)
  • J-4000M (Metal steam head with wooden handle)
  • J-4000W (Wig steamer)

We recommend these models for the following applications:

  • Automotive: J-4000A
  • Furniture: J-4000A
  • Hat Manufacturers: J-4000H
  • Floral Applications: J-4000W
  • Hospitality Industry: J-4000C, D and M
  • Retail: J-4000M
  • Steam Cleaning: J-4000B
  • Photography: J-4000M
  • Movie Production: J-4000M
  • Interior Designers: J-4000C (for carpets and wallpaper) and D (for drapes)
  • Beauty Salons/Hair Replacement/Wigs: J-4000W

The eSteam Travel Steamer is the most powerful handheld steamer on the market. In fact, it is over 3 times more powerful, with 800 watts of steaming power, and the largest reservoir on the market.

Regardless of your application, there is a Jiffy Steamer for you. We hope this guide has helped sort through their many products.
