Oprah's favorite double-sided iron makes a fabulous Mother's Day gift for jet setting moms

The ingenious gizmo tackles both sides of a garment at the same time — you'd be hard-pressed to find a better travel partner.

Oprah knows a lot about, well, everything. That's why people clamor for items on her Favorite Things List every year. It's a fabulous resource for anyone looking to upgrade their lives. One thing from her 2022 list, in particular, jumped out at us year after year as an amazing travel solution for spring vacations — the Nori Handheld Steamer and Iron, a compact, 2-in-1 gadget that just might change your life. No one wants to look like a crumpled pile of laundry when they're on an adventure in a far-off place ... and don't you get the feeling there aren't any wrinkles in Oprah's world?

Why is it a good deal?

This gadget rarely goes on sale and we don't expect the price to drop again until at least June. If your mom has a vacation planned, this is the gift you want to snag ahead of her special day while there's a coupon available.

Why do I need this?

Since it tackles both sides of a garment at the same time, the Nori is incredibly efficient — two times faster than a regular iron, according to the company. But on top of speed, it has six fabric settings and a steam function so you can customize the results depending on what you're ironing.

It kind of looks like a flat iron for your hair — it's a tong-like wand with heating elements. "This gadget quickly presses both sides of a shirt, dress or pair of pants and reaches its highest temperature in three minutes," Oprah shared.

It's also lightweight at just over a pound, and you don't need an ironing board to use it — together, those features make it the perfect travel companion. It also has dual voltage settings which means that whether you're traveling around the country or around the world, you can plug this baby in.

It even comes in handy for the times you don't have access to a washing machine or dry cleaner. "You can also use it to steam or refresh clothes," Oprah suggested. "And with people traveling again, it’s ideal to throw into your suitcase."

"I hate ironing!" shared a happy shopper. "This iron is just what I needed to get my clothes looking more presentable. No ironing board either? Sign me up. I love that it can go with me in my suitcase when we travel too! My husband is enjoying the benefits as well with his dress shirts! Even my mom, who is the QUEEN of ironing, is impressed."

"I bought this for my weekend trip and used it all weekend!" wrote an enthusiastic traveler. "It immediately removes wrinkles with a few swipes and I found that the steam feature helps a lot. It fits perfectly into my carry on and I didn't have to worry about using the hotel iron! Highly recommend."
