So good I bought another!
I bought one of these for my charity to freshen up pre-loved clothing, for a swap shop. More expensive than I’d bought before but wanted quality and British made as previous ones (different brand) were just not up to the job. This is easy to use and does exactly what we need it to. So good that, 6 months later, I’ve bought another for a 2nd shop. Customer service really helpful too. Wouldn’t consider any other brand now. Perfect, thank you.

The best steamer I’ve ever used
Having a shop, steaming is a daily chore and it’s something we do for an hour a day. It’s very sturdy, holds a lot of water and more importantly it’s very safe for staff. Nice little alarm lets me know when the water is low.

Great steamer with a loud buzzer when it’s time to refill
We got this for a great price. Great customer service when we requested a VAT invoice too. Highly recommend the product and this store. Made in the UK, so that’s great too! Good to buy local form smaller companies too!

A real professional clothes steamer
I have owned several steamer irons (including the ridiculously overpriced Laurastar). I decided to buy this British steamer after I saw it in several charity shops in London – and it turned out that those stores keep Speedypress steamers for a reason. Firstly they are a lot easier to use than the normal iron – and does not require any complicated assembly at all. You just have to screw on the metal rod (comes in 3 pieces) that holds the steamer head and then connect the hose – and it’s ready to use. The steamer rolls around easily on its casters and can be just left standing somewhere in the corner. It is much better at dealing with delicate fabrics than a standard steaming iron would be since it doesn’t leave any streaks from the steam (which are impossible to remove, by the way, since the steam literally burns through the fabric), or make the fabric shiny from heat and pressure. The reason for this is that the steam comes out continuously and from a larger area than in the iron – so you get a little cloud instead of several strong streams that burn the fabric. It doesn’t make the fabric wet either, so you can put the garment on straight away. At the same time, it gets rid of creases on wool and silk perfectly.
