Before you jet off to faraway destinations, you need to make sure your luggage has all of your travel necessities to avoid any frantic last-minute runs to the store. When you’re on vacation, taking photos or attending events require you to look your best, which means crisp and smooth clothing. Not all hotels or Airbnbs offer an iron or steamer on-hand — or, some will have it, but for an added cost. That’s why a travel steamer is a must-have travel item to have at the top of your packing list.

The best portable steamers offer wrinkle-free coverage in a lightweight and compact size that you can easily stuff into your backpack or carry-on luggage. While size is just one quality you should look out for, the most notable feature should be how well it steams away any unwanted wrinkles and creases that may have developed from being quickly shoved into your bag.

Below, you can learn more about the vacation essential and where to buy portable options online.
