The conceptual 'Nip' steamer has been designed by Kim Jaehee from Designer dot as new iteration of the classic garment care appliance that will help to make the process of ironing far easier for users. The unit highlights an iron clip that can be positioned onto garments to flatten both sides of the fabric at the same time to eliminate the need to flip it over. This would allow for garment care protocols to be dramatically increased and reduce the amount of time needed to steam an entire load of clothing.
The conceptual 'Nip' steamer, although outfitted with its clipping functionality, is still capable of being used like a conventional iron to help make it as functional as possible for users.
