For All Types of Fabrics
This Sienna steam press machine has a competitive ironing surface (seven times larger than that of an iron) that will allow cutting the ironing time at least in half. Unlike most of its rivals that only offer 5 temperature options, this model has 6 modes to choose from - nylon, silk, rayon, wool, cotton, and linen.
The operation is pretty straightforward. On the unit's front panel, you will find an on/off button and a temperature selection button to quickly choose the desired setting. It also has a power indicator light (red), a ready light (green), and a steam ready light (yellow). The green light will appear when the press reaches the desired temperature, and the yellow one when the unit is ready to produce steam (available for wool, linen, and cotton settings).
The steam burst button is on the unit's handle; just keep in mind that you should not press it when the unit is closed - it is important to leave 1-2 inches between the ironing board and the pressing plate. Alternatively, you can use the included spray bottle for dampening fabrics.
Also, the purchase includes a pressing cushion for taking care of garments that should not be pressed flat.
Safety Comes First
The unit has an auto shut-off and auto wake-up features. If you leave the pressing plate closed for more than 10 seconds, an audio alarm will sound and the heating element will be turned off. If you lift the plate to continue pressing, the operation will be resumed.
The auto shut-off feature will also turn the heat off if the pressing plate is lifted for more than 10 minutes; if this happens, you will need to press the on/off button or temperature control buttons to switch it on again.

The steam press machine has an innovative design that will make your chores a breeze.
First of all, the unit has an automatic steam function. If you choose the steam mode, it will be activated automatically as you pull down the handle. Because the unit produces more steam than other models, it needs a larger water reservoir, which it does have. Moreover, this water tank is equipped with a replaceable anti-scale filter that will prevent residue build-ups and prolong the unit's service life.
Next, the steam press machine has a high-quality thermostat that provides accurate temperature control (with 140º F minimum and 428º F maximum temperature) for excellent ironing results with no damage to delicate fabrics. As you choose the desired setting (nylon, silk, wool, cotton, or linen), the ironing temperature will be displayed on its LED screen. It will also show if the steam function is activated (not available for nylon and silk ironing modes).
The only thing you should keep in mind is that this large steam press will take a little longer to pre-heat than more portable models (about 12 minutes for the linen setting).
Safe and Convenient
In addition to all the features we have mentioned above, the item has a non-stick soleplate for hassle-free ironing of any fabric. Meanwhile, its lower board has a durable padded cover for an excellent ironing experience. The boards can be opened wide enough to place clothing and linen easily and safely.

What Is a Steam Press?
Just like everything, clothes need care, and that's why ironing is essential. However, very few people really enjoy doing it. Sounds like you? Then you may want to consider buying a steam press, an alternative to your regular iron that will let you steam press dozens of clothes with little effort required on your side.
The operation principle of a steam press is simple yet effective: a piece of garment is pressed between a heated and a padded plate and steamed. As a result, not only does it smooth out wrinkles in seconds, but also it kills dangerous bacteria that might have settled down on your clothes.
Not so long ago, you could see steam presses only in dry cleaning or tailor workshops, but things have changed. Today, there's a great variety of steam press models available, with many designed specifically for home use.
A clothes steam press is a user-friendly and easy-to-use appliance, and handling it requires neither special skills nor experience. With that, it offers some great benefits. For instance, it can provide you with an ironing surface up to 10 times larger than a regular iron, which means you can iron more clothes in less amount of time.
You may also want to take a look at our selection of steam cleaners that will let you keep your house tidy and neat. And if you aren't sure whether you need a handheld garment steamer or a full-sized model, make sure to read these reviews too.
What Features to Compare
Size
When choosing a steam press, one of the first things that should be considered is the surface area it can work with. Naturally, the bigger it is, the more space you'll have for ironing larger clothing items. This also means you'll be able to press in a more convenient way, as well as speeding up the whole process. The flip side of the coin is that this large surface area will also need more room for storage after use, making it problematic for those limited in space. On the other hand, buying a small steam press will also be a bad option since it will make quick ironing jobs more difficult and longer. The golden mean is to choose a steam press with the surface area between 20-22 inches long and 8-10 inches wide.
Power
Moving on, you should consider the power. It is a defining characteristic that can tell you a lot about the unit's ability to produce heat. For instance, steam presses that yield about 1,000 watts won't be as efficient at removing wrinkles as those with 1,540 watts of power and definitely won't stack up with 1800-W models. So, if you need a powerful steam press that will be able to provide fast results and ensure thorough pressing, make sure to opt for models with at least 1,500 W.
Another feature that you might want to look into is whether a steam press you choose comes already pre-programmed, saving you the guesswork when choosing a perfect temperature for delicate or thin fabrics. Auto shut-off function should be included too, especially if you have little kids or pets that tend to prowl everywhere. This function can give you peace of mind if you ever happen to forget to unplug the device.
Steam Settings
Most steam presses come with digital panels allowing you to quickly adjust the steam settings according to the type of fabric that you need to press. Generally, if you work with linen, for example, you'll need to apply more heat and to turn it down a bit for fabrics such as silk, flax, etc. With automatic settings though, there will be no guesswork. Once you choose the right program, the device will heat to the perfect temperature and provide the perfect output.
Water Capacity
Just like with conventional irons, with a steam press, you'll be using water to press wrinkly clothes. That's why it makes sense to check out its water tank capacity. Typically, the more water it can accommodate, the more steam the device will be able to pressure out onto your clothes, and as a result, the better the smoothness of your clothes will be. Besides, the bigger the tank, the less often you'll need to refill it during use.
Additional Accessories
For the convenience of use, most steam presses come supplied with additional accessories. More often than not, in the package along with a steam press, you'll find a pressing pad, a spray bottle, and a measuring cup. A pressing pad is helpful for steaming shirts sleeves, curved seams, and darts. A spray bottle will come in useful for dampening clothes before ironing to get rid of the most stubborn wrinkles, while a measuring cup will let you quickly and easily add the right amount of water to the unit's water tank.
