What fabric steamer is best?
I’m planning on replacing all my blinds with sheer curtains. But the thought of ironing all those panels seems daunting! Can someone recommend a steamer to do all this work? And, is this the best option for all these curtains?
Thank you!

Hi Chriss, a steamer will work well. I have also found that if I wash sheers on the gentle cycle and then hang them up while they are still wet, it greatly reduces the wrinkles as they dry. Gravity pulls them down and you can smooth them out with your hands after you get them hung (while they are wet). Sheers dry really quickly so they will be dry in no time and have a lot fewer wrinkles this way.
I have the Joy Mangano steamer and it has been wonderful. It's rather inexpensive, lightweight, and versatile. I've used it for steaming my clothes and valances as well as removing the wallpaper in a 14x14 room.

Hey Chriss, spritz with plain water where they are hung and the wrinkles will fall out
Hi Chriss. I did a bit of reading on steamers and this is what I learned: best overall steamer is Conair Turbo Extreme Steamer Handheld Fabric Steamer. (They are also the best value steamer). Best Household Steamer is Black & Decker Advanced Handheld Garment Steamer. Best Travel Steamer is also from Con Air. It's called Con Air Complete Steam Handheld Fabric Steamer. And, Chriss, I also learned that you could always use your iron set on steam. Good luck to you.

I would wash them first and hang them with some weight attach to the bottom. The weight will pull out the wrinkles and your curtains will smell all fresh and clean.
Here are some on Amazon that have great ratings https://amzn.to/2MOZfMo
You could wash and then dry them with the wrinkle release
