Great job and the stand helps.

By Charles Stewart on 15-Feb-2024


Working well and the stand is very handy.

By Charles Stewart on 15-Feb-2024


First time using the Ultra XL steam iron press, wished I bought one years ago cuts my ironing in half the time. Delivery prompt only took a couple of days and well packed.

Super

This was smaller than I expected but that's not the seller or manufacturer's fault at all. I knew the measurements before I purchased. However, I would say that this size of iron press is probably the smallest I reckon anyone should own. Anything smaller than this sure would be too small in my opinion. In terms of the product itself, I LOVE it. The stand is what makes a world of difference as the last one I used didn't come with a stand and I still needed to place the press on an ironing board.

Brilliant Steam Press

My wife hates ironing but loves the Ultra XL steam press. Thanks for advice on the choice of steam press. Ironing takes a quarter of the time. She looks forward to using it. So pleased you persuaded us to go with the larger one. Thanks again ????????

Speedy iron press

Top quality product. Very pleased. The stand is at fixed height and is higher than expected. But not a problem once a suitable chair was found.

By Suzanne Grainger on 06-Apr-2023


Love this

A great bit of kit. Irons sheets and other flat things very well. Good heat and steam. Prob quicker and better with trad iron for other items. The stand is an unnecessary extra if you have any flat area to sit or stand at. Would have preferred without and for £50 less. Just another thing to store.

By Mrs Anne E De Saxe on 14-Dec-2022


Great product

Excellent delivery

Ultra XL Steam Ironing Press 90cm with Stand

Bought this for my partner for our B&B to save time on ironing. It has cut the ironing time down by 50%, and she advises that it is very easy to use and does the job wonderfully. Thank you.

ironing press

excellent should have bought one years ago, saves time and presses really well so easy, also has stopped my arm and shoulder from hurting.

By Judith Tyler on 25-Oct-2021


Brilliant device!

Wish I had bought this years ago when I think of all the time it would have saved. It's made a huge difference to my achy back too.

By Irene Jones on 03-Sep-2021


Impressed

Having just opened an AirBnB this steam iron press is a must. Makes light work of the ironing. Product is solid on the stand. Recommended

By Julie Greenslade on 08-Aug-2021


Time saver!

Brilliant steam press, I got the XL due to doing lots of laundry for my business, and it saves me so much time, I hadn’t ever used a press before but this company was recommended to me by my business partner and it so easy to use, I got the stand too which is also a space saver, highly recommend this product and company!

By Jemma Ashby on 05-Jun-2021


Great piece of equipment

Looks good and fits stand perfectly. Stand is a bit shaky when using steam and you need muscles to spread the stand legs.

By Alison Langford on 04-Feb-2021


great fast ironing

highly reccomend

By Chris Parr on 05-Jan-2021


eaier quicker ironing

The larger plates mean easier and quicker ironing

By Nasreen Rafiq on 12-Oct-2020


steaming

sturdy/easy to use/well worth the price/ not giving it full stars as they could not supply the stand

By George Wilkie on 06-Sep-2020


Bit to get use to but love it when you get the hang of it

By Susan Devine on 30-Aug-2020


Almost perfect for bedding

We use it for our Airbnbs so lots of sheets. Definitely worth it but bear in mind, with sheets you don’t get as good results as you do with an iron but then they don’t have to be perfect so it works for us. The essence is the time saved. Including the time spent folding (the quality of which, is key) it is three times quicker than an iron so the time saving is immense when doing large volumes.

Great machine

great iron press

By Mr & Mrs Melton on 17-Jun-2020


really speedys up ironing

By Mr & Mrs Melton on 17-Jun-2020


Excellent Machine

I have now used the press on two occasions and have really noticed the time saved and the quality of pressing for the majority of items. Sheets and Duvet covers are easier to press, as are t-shirts and polo shirts. No ironing marks on garments and logos can be pressed without fear of them lifting. More practice needed with ordinary shirts to speed up the process and improve the quality over a conventional iron. I am sure this is down to user error. Overall, very pleased I purchased the press. Ironing is not as much of a chore now.

By Kevin Moore on 15-Jun-2020


Love this ironing press

It's very easy to use and makes ironing less of a chore!

By Susie Sainsbury on 12-Jun-2020


WOW

So easy to use, from t-shirts to king-size duvet covers, they're just so easy to press, just have to learn to fold fitted sheets now!!!??

By Jacklyn Dawson on 25-May-2020


Originally faulty but replacement machine is great!

I have given 4 stars as unfortunately the press that I initially received was faulty. The customer service was very good though. i explained the issue with my press and they sent me out a new one which arrived the very next day. That is the only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars.

By Marilyn Draper on 30-Apr-2020


Quick to use

I bought this for doing bedding but I find it crinkles covers or pillowcases at the sides. I haven't figured out if it's coming from the foam below or if it would work better if I replaced with felt, that's the only thing I can think of trying. I wouldn't mind some feedback in how to get rid of the crinkles.

By Catherine Taylor on 27-Apr-2020


So much quicker then my old singer press

The large size really speeds up my ironing, can now do all the ironing in half the time compared to my old Singer press!

By Mr Spalding on 26-Apr-2020


Large pressing area, it does what it says on the tin.

Noisy steam compared with previous press, and stand for standing use, not adjustable to lower for sitting. Matter of getting used to.

By Brian Melbourne on 10-Apr-2020


Best Steam Press

Pressed within seconds It’s awesome.

By Shashu Amir on 21-Mar-2020


great press really saves me hours a week standing by ironing board

saves me hours a week standing by ironing board

My iron gave me a pay rise

I can't comment on the stand yet as it hasn't arrived yet. I was told right at the start that the stands were out of stock but would follow a week later. The press is so amazing. I am disabled and ironing the 120 meters of material I use every 6 months took me 6 weeks. This time is part of my 'cost of sales' and effects my profit margins. This evening I ironed 20 meters of fabric in 30 minutes. You can fold it behind the board (where the hinge is) but I personally find it easier to fold my fabric in half along the long side, then in half (long side ) again and iron from left to right. It has literally saved my life. The 'cost of sales' has dropped dramatically so I have better profit margins immediately. It's like I bought this and it gave me a pay rise. In fact it's already paid for itself. Heats up fast, is really easy to use and really good at its job. I love it!

By Amanda Reed on 20-Jan-2020


Great service!

We had great service with our order, from the dispatching to delivery we were kept informed about the delivery. It was a 5 star service, and I'm very happy with the ironing press so far.

By Martin Tolley on 09-Dec-2019


Great machine

Good delivery and well packaged. In operation it provides a very good finish.

Super Amazing Product

I highly recommend this steam press!

The joys of ironing (not a chore anymore)

My wife suffers from chronic arthritis and finds using her steam iron and ironing board an uncomfortable chore. Since using her new Speedypress Ultra XL Steam Ironing Press plus sturdy Stand, now in it's pride of place conveniently set up permanently in place in the corner of spare bedroom, she finds it a joy to use.

Big helper in small size

Very nice and helpful thing. Ironing now takes up to 10 times less time.

Ultra XL ironing press

Best value for money I've had in a while. Excellent performance!

By Maria Macleod on 30-Jun-2019


First time for me owning and using a press. Water compartment is rather small, it's going to take more practice to comfortable do king size bedding. The small free pad could do with being longer. But saying all that it's seems to do the job.

By Carole Fulford on 14-May-2019


Time saver

If you have arthritis, this ironing press is brilliant. If you're short on time, it's brilliant. If you've never ironed before, it's brilliant. Everything about this press is ease of use so I would recommend to anyone thinking about getting an ironing press to purchase this one.

By Keith Burnett on 21-Apr-2019

After sales was most impressive

By Peter Cox Jackson on 16-Mar-2019


Pretty good but could be better

I bought this at my wife was convinced it would be great. As I'm a sucker or a new toy I agreed to go along. First the good points: The size is fine, though I wouldn't like to go any smaller and a bit bigger would be nicer. If you tend to leave your ironing board up then this actually takes up less space. It gets rid of creases and is indeed faster than a normal iron. How much faster will depend on the state of your clothes. If they've been scrunched in a ball for a few week then you're going to spend a lot of time trying to flatten it out before you can pull down the lid. It does have a steam function though the pressure and heat mean that it isn't really necessary, at least for anything I've ironed. It takes very little effort or concentration to use so its much easier to watch TV etc than when using a normal iron. The less good points: Slippy clothes tend to slide off and are difficult to hold in place when bring the lid down. It doesn't hold a steady temperature. For example on cotton setting, it heats up to about 200 degrees, but when you use it it drops to to less than 170. The temperature drops even more quickly when you use the steam. It's hot to use. You have a very large metal plate heated to 200 degrees pumping out heat. That may be fine in winter but in some it's going to be unpleasant. The top plate only opens to about 45 degrees so when you are smoothing out a garment, your knuckles are only a few cm away from the hot plate. There's not a lot space at the back in front of the hinge so ironing large items can be tricky. I'm 6ft tall and find the stand a bit low. I might be able to adjust the height but haven't tried yet. If you sew, you can't press open seams on it so budget another 10-15 pounds on a basic dry iron. Despite the problems, I'm glad to have it though next time I might try a larger commercial model.

By Matthew Helliwell on 16-Feb-2019


Halves my ironing time

This is a great machine, easy instructions, you can sit down to iron, fast to get through a large pile of ironing!

By Tricia Surridge on 02-Jan-2019


Excellent

Bought the large model and it is excellent, heats up quickly and really gets the job done fast. The large model let's me put a good crease in to pants as well. Highly recommended, glad I didn't go with a cheaper unit.

By Alex Koshy on 20-Oct-2018


Great machine, great customer service

This is a fantastic board. You do need to purchase the stand. But, the combination stand and board are unbeatable and a must have if you do any ironing at all. Quick to set up, quick to heat and operate, and quick to break down and put away. I was missing the bolts with the stand and informed the seller. He was in constant contact with me to ensure I received the bolts and followed up with me personally to check to see if I was happy with the product. One cannot ask for better customer service. The best thing I like, wow, what a great, sharp crease on my trousers.

By Jack on 20-Oct-2018


Ironing? No problem

Delivered as promised. Easy to commission. A pleasure to use. Impressive results. The reviews were correct and fair for once!

By GM FIELD on 17-Sep-2018


Very good

So far the press has proved very good. I am pressing lots of large bedsheets once you have worked out the best way to fold them you can fly through them.

By Claire Jackson on 04-Mar-2018


Pros and Cons

Some great things about this press are the ironing surface and the stand. Sadly unless you are doing multiple layers there are 2 circles one at each side that crinkle. I now have an extra layer of foam (which came with the purchase which has helped a little)

By Helen Powell on 14-Feb-2018


Great iron press

Really pleased I've bought this iron and found out what I've been missing out on the last couple of years. All you neex to know is that its quick,speedy and excellent results.

By Mohammed jaber Ahmed on 12-Feb-2018


Excellent Product

Ordered this as it was taking me so long to iron my sheets. I had so many to iron after all my guests left after Christmas. Fantastic machine I pressed all of them in half the time it normally takes to iron them and with a better finish.

By Cherrilyn Ward on 08-Jan-2018


Brilliant!

Bought this to try and reduce my time ironing every week. Cant believe I have not looked at a press before. The Ultra XL Press is robust, well built, powerful and quick. Practice will make perfect. Great product, excellent Service from The Ironing Press Company, highly recommended.

By Gillian Butler on 09-Aug-2017


Great service and personal response- very impressed !

By Miranda Wharam on 23-Jun-2017


Delighted

We run a guest house and needed to replace a failed steam press. This was one of the least expensive options but we are delighted with it. It is robustly built and practical. We could easily has spent £100 more and got the same or less.

By F&T on 20-Apr-2017


Ironing no, steam pressing yes !

Outstanding press for the money, good quality and works perfectly. My wife would never go back to using an iron again and this is the third steam press in 25 years. She rates this the best one she has used.

By J F NOBLE on 11-Mar-2017


Excellent product, excellent seller

Excellent product! Delivered very fast, packaged well. Very happy with it.

By Annmarie Judge-Preston on 04-Jan-2017


Great

This is great. I bought it because I had a frozen shoulder and found normal ironing a pain. I use it for everything - even shirts and 'fiddely' things. It's particularly good for bed and table linen. Ironing is my pet hate so I set this up in front of the TV and before I know it the ironing pile has gone!

By K. L. King-Wilson on 12-Dec-2016


Amazing Value

Fabulous machine, is a huge relief to the ironing chore. If you've never used one, persevere with the folding and placing of laundry, it is a different concept to a hand held iron and well worth it once mastered

By d bolas on 01-Dec-2016


Five Stars

Wish I had found this product years ago. Makes ironing a pleasure (believe it or not!)

By Debra Guttridge on 05-Nov-2016


Wouldn't be without this

I love this machine! Bought for applying heat transfer vinyl to clothing and upholstery projects; it is so easy to use that I also use it for all of my ironing! Debating whether to get rid of my steam generator and ironing board - I haven't used it since I have had this ironing press. Every home should have one!

By Sandra Haggerty on 04-Nov-2016


Proven usage!

This replaced one I had for at least ten years. There was a fracture of the plastic handle on the old, which although mended to usable state with Super glue, made me think it about time to purchase a new one! Amazingly it is identical to my old one, and I look forward to many years of using it as before.

By D. HARTLEY on 10-Oct-2016


So happy with this press

This is so good I can not believe I have lived with out it for so long, I have a B&B and holiday cottages and its just changed everything and made things so easy, so much so that I purchased 2 one for my housekeeper so she can now help as well and she just loves doing her own stuff with it as she has a large household and takes in ironing for other people, it is just such a great size and the bedding, t.shirts, almost everything but shirts comes out wonderful

By henia slack on 19-Aug-2016


Perfect!

Arrived in double quick time and perfect for my needs brilliant

Great item

Excellent item, great service from the company.

By Mr. Grumpy Pensioner on 20-Jun-2016


Great unit

It's big, so it takes up a lot of space, it's not light, but it does exactly what it's supposed to do, large sole plate and loads of steam make this a delight to use. Feels really robust. We've been using this for a long while with no issues whatsoever. Delighted with product. Exactly as described. Thank you. A+++++
