Hey, don't knock those things! They work incredibly well... When you're done, just fold up the steamer with the USB cable inside of it and tote it with you. It's functional AND practical.

Apparently it's cheap and surprisingly effective. The upshot is that you don't have to know anything about connectors or do any soldering.
