The product, in the report: Garment Steamer to press clothes while on hanger
I bought CONAIR Garment steamer on 5th April from Costco used it first time on April 7th. The garments as instructed were hanged on the safe Iron Board Rack. While I fill the water I noticed that the white lid was not perfectly closing and I put pressure to close it. After spending several swipes on first shirt which never became wrinkle free or pressed. I tried to another shirt as I moved the steamer all of sudden big steam blow hit my chest and burnt my skin. At that time I was wearing cotton shirt not shirtless but somehow the steam started towards my chest and hot water leaked from the water container too. I saw [REDACTED] in [REDACTED] Mississauga and she diagnosed it 2nd degree burn and prescribed the Ointment which I am currently using. Since the incident I was not able to attend my office for two days and had severe pain and irritation on my chest area.
To resolve the issue, I contacted Conair Canada who directed me after several calls to US office who said to send the unit back for investigation. After weeks they told me there is nothing wrong and its not our fault?

The product, in the report: Conair GS61R Commercial Quality Compact Fabric Steamer. It is white with a blue section to check the water level.
I have purchased several conair steamers. They are always fine to use for a little while then, after many uses, hot water comes out of the nozzle with the steam splashing on my hands and arms. I usually purchase another one when this starts happening.

The product, in the report: Conair cloths steamer.
I have owned over the years 2 Cloths steamers. A [REDACTED] , and a Conair M#GS28L They both overheat after 10 to 15 minutes of use. The [REDACTED] actually melted the bottom of the casing. The Conair can not be left on for more than 5 to 10 minutes at a time with out causing the plug to get so hot it can burn you. Have you posted this problem.
