When using a steamer to remove wrinkles from your clothing, does it matter if there are stains or smells in the clothing? Or is it possible that the steaming may lock these into the fabric?

I’m thinking of buying a garment steamer (the Jiffy J-2000, to be precise). I’m sick of ironing and my style is such that most of my clothes require it.
Most of the clothes I would like to use the steamer on are skirts and dresses that are either cotton or a cotton/spandex blend. Will the steamer work well on these fabrics? Also have a few rayon and polyester dresses I’d like to steam… will it work well on these? Are there any fabrics that the steamer will not work as well on?
And I already know not to expect perfect, crisp results from the steamer as I would get from ironing. :)
Thanks, I appreciate your help!

Usually, the higher the wattage, the more powerful the heater and the quicker it will raise steam. However, the more steam is raised, the bigger the water tank needs to be, otherwise you will be constantly refilling it. With regard to performance, steam is steam and all models do the same thing.

I have two steamer and neither have a switch. You must have directions for it but if not it’s very simple. You have to put a little salt and some water in the container, plug in and steam away.
Read the instructions is my best advice.
