The Speedypress 81HD steam ironing press is a large ironing press designed to make ironing faster and more efficient than a traditional iron. With an extra-large 81cm pressing surface and powerful steam performance, this clothes press delivers consistent, professional results with less effort. Ideal for both home use and light commercial environments.

The Speedypress 81HD is a professional steam ironing press built to handle larger volumes of ironing quickly and efficiently. With a pressing surface up to 16 times larger than a standard iron, it allows you to press garments, bedding, and household laundry in far less time.
Unlike a traditional iron, this garment press applies even pressure across a wide area, helping deliver smooth, consistent results while reducing effort.

Key Benefits

The large 81cm pressing surface enables you to cover more fabric in one press, helping reduce ironing time by up to 75%. This makes it particularly effective for larger items such as bedding and sheets.
The steam ironing press function provides powerful bursts of steam, including a booster for stubborn creases, while multiple dry and steam settings allow flexibility across different fabrics.
The ability to press multiple layers at once further improves efficiency, making it suitable for both busy households and light commercial use.

Ease of Use

This clothes press is designed to be simple and practical for everyday use. The pressure-sensitive handle requires minimal effort, allowing the press to apply consistent pressure for you.
The wide opening angle provides more space to position garments easily, while the fast heat-up time of around 2 minutes means you can start ironing quickly.
Designed to reduce strain on the arms, shoulders, and back, it offers a more comfortable ironing experience.

Is an ironing press faster than using a conventional iron?

Yes. The pressing plate is much larger than a standard iron, allowing you to press more fabric in one movement. This makes ironing significantly faster. Many customers reduce their ironing time by up to 75%, especially when pressing items such as shirts, trousers, bedding, and duvet covers.

Are ironing presses easy to use?

Yes. Ironing presses are designed to be simple and practical to use. After a short period of practice, most users feel confident operating them. Simply position the garment, lower the handle, and let the press apply consistent heat and pressure for effective crease removal.

Can I iron shirts with an ironing press?

Yes. Shirts are one of the most commonly pressed items. Once you are familiar with the process, a standard shirt can usually be pressed in around 1–2 minutes, making it much quicker than using a conventional iron.

Can a steam ironing press also be used as a dry press?

Yes. All steam ironing presses can also be used as dry presses without water. This is ideal for lightly creased garments or when fabrics are slightly damp.

What fabrics can be pressed with an ironing press?

Ironing presses are suitable for a wide range of fabrics when the correct temperature setting is selected, including:

Cotton
Linen
Wool
Polyester
Silk
Nylon

Always choose the appropriate setting to ensure safe and effective results.

Can an ironing press press multiple layers of fabric?

Yes. Many fabrics can be pressed in multiple layers, helping you complete ironing more efficiently. Depending on the material and thickness, up to four layers can often be pressed at once.

Do I need a stand for an ironing press?

No, a stand is not essential. Ironing presses can be used on any stable surface. However, a stand can provide a more comfortable working height and improved stability, especially during longer ironing sessions.

Do ironing presses use more electricity than a regular iron?

No. Most ironing presses use a similar amount of energy to a conventional iron. Because they complete ironing more quickly, they are often used for less time, which can help reduce overall energy usage.

How long should the press be closed when pressing garments?

In most cases, 2–4 seconds is enough to remove creases. Thicker fabrics may require slightly longer. The exact time depends on the fabric type, thickness, and temperature setting.

How much pressure does an ironing press apply?

When fully closed, many ironing presses apply up to 100 lbs of even pressure across the garment. This consistent pressure helps deliver fast crease removal and crisp, professional results.

How should I store my ironing press?

Most ironing presses include a locking system that keeps the plates securely closed when not in use. This allows for safe storage either flat or upright, helping save space.
