A standing steam iron is a variation of a steam iron. It operates on the same mechanism as a regular steam iron, but the shape of a standing steam iron resembles a shower head, with an adjustable metal rod for hanging clothes and a long tube for water to be delivered from the tank to the ironing surface.

Benefits of a standing steam iron
Straightens quickly and optimizes energy efficiency
A standing steam iron straightens clothes quickly thanks to the strong steam flow from the iron head, which helps to remove even the toughest wrinkles on the fabric surface. It can iron clothes 2-5 times faster than regular irons, saving energy and time.
Suitable for ironing all fabric materials
A standing steam iron can effectively iron all fabric materials, including difficult-to-iron fabrics such as silk, lace, wool, velvet, denim, and fleece. Therefore, clothes made of these materials can be easily ironed with a standing steam iron. Clothes with pleats will no longer be a problem as the iron is equipped with a convenient pleat clip.
In addition to clothes, the iron can also effectively iron other items such as tablecloths, curtains, bedspreads, and drapes.
Provides maximum comfort for users
A standing steam iron has a convenient design that allows you to iron clothes without bending over. Simply hang the clothes or item to be ironed on the hanger and choose the most comfortable position for yourself to start ironing.
Safe to use
A standing steam iron has an automatic shut-off function when the voltage is unstable, when there is no water in the tank, or when ironing for a long time. The iron will automatically shut off within 10 seconds to increase the durability and lifespan of the product.
In addition, the iron also has a thermal sensor that automatically shuts off the power when it detects sudden changes in temperature to prevent damage to clothes and ensure user safety.
Easy to clean
After use, wait for the iron to cool completely, then open the drain valve, usually located on the body of the iron, to drain the water in the tank and prevent water from accumulating. Then, remove the water tank and use a soft cloth to clean the contact area between the tank and the body of the iron for better cleaning.
If you use the iron frequently, it is recommended to clean it regularly, once a month. If you use it less often, clean it every 2-3 months to preserve and prolong the durability of the iron.
3. Wait for the water in the tank to boil and steam to be released from the iron head before using. Move the steam outlet to the desired position for ironing. The hot steam will quickly straighten the clothes.
Note: The steam released is very hot, do not put your hand close to the steam outlet to avoid burns. It is recommended to use gloves when ironing.
