How do they work.... do they just blow steam,

Steam +a mist of hot water droplets.

or is there also a suction action to removed the dissolved

No, but some of them can be used with an absorbent pad applicator.

Not really, IMHO

Women like them because you can freshen up fabrics like curtains and

colours more contrasty, when they dry out, it's back to square one.
