Ceramic glaze panel is currently the most ideal material choice for garment steamers, especially excelling in smoothness, garment care, and durability.

 

1. Ceramic Glaze Panel: Optimal overall performance, suitable for most households.

Smooth and non-sticky: Highly smooth surface, less prone to snagging or pulling fibers during ironing, very gentle on delicate fabrics like silk and chiffon.

Even heat conduction: Heats up quickly and has a stable temperature distribution, preventing localized overheating and damage to clothes. Actual temperature difference can be controlled within ±3℃.

Scratch and wear resistant: More durable than Teflon coating, less prone to wear and yellowing with long-term use, effectively extending the machine's lifespan.

High safety: Resistant to acid and alkali corrosion and odor blocking, suitable for households with infant clothing or sensitive skin.

 

2. Stainless steel panel: Durable but requires careful temperature control.
Advantages include fast heat conduction and high strength, suitable for high-frequency use scenarios, such as small laundries or households with a large amount of clothing.

 

3. Teflon/Ceramic Coated Panel: A good entry-level choice, but with limited lifespan.

Commonly found in mid-to-low-end handheld models, offering good initial smoothness and affordable prices.

The coating is prone to peeling after prolonged high-temperature use, and damage can exacerbate clothing damage. Not recommended for high-end fabric care.

 

4. Titanium and Aluminum Alloy Panels: Suitable for specific scenarios.

Titanium Panel: Wear-resistant and scratch-resistant, with excellent thermal conductivity, often used in professional equipment, suitable for commercial ironing scenarios.

Aluminum Alloy + Ceramic Coating: Lightweight and low-cost. Some brands (such as Suppor) have improved the smoothness through process optimization, suitable for users with limited budgets who value quality.
