Buying Advice
Is the Handy Maid the Right Steamer?
Choose the Speedypress Handy Maid if you need a professional garment steamer for regular daily use but do not need the longer 100-minute runtime of the larger Handymaid-i.
If your team steams garments back-to-back for long periods with minimal breaks, the 3 litre Handymaid-i may be the better choice. For lighter commercial use, retail, hospitality and specialist finishing, the Handy Maid is a strong, long-lasting option.
3-Year Warranty + Lifetime Boiler Warranty208cm hose available on request. Accessories may also be available for specialist applications.

Find quick answers to common questions about this product.
Yes. Its all-metal construction, stainless steel pressure boiler and 2.5-litre capacity are intended for regular professional use in settings such as hotels, dry cleaners, bridal retailers and costume departments. A full boiler provides up to 75 minutes of continuous steam, making it a practical choice for light to medium commercial workloads rather than constant, back-to-back production.
It is suitable for garments and fabrics that benefit from crease removal without direct contact from a hot soleplate, including silk, wool, velvet, synthetics and blended materials. It can also be used on hanging clothes, curtains, upholstery and display textiles. Operators should still follow each item’s care label and test an inconspicuous area where fabric sensitivity is uncertain.
The unit has an approximate four-minute heat-up time from a partial fill, while heating from a full boiler can take around four to ten minutes. Its 2.5-litre stainless steel boiler delivers up to 75 minutes of continuous steam from a full fill. This supports productive steaming sessions for fittings, room turns, retail displays and final garment presentation.
The steamer has its own built-in boiler and is designed to be filled with standard tap water, so it does not require an external steam supply. It is rated at 1.5kW and has a three-metre cable. As the supplied information does not state the required voltage or plug type, buyers should confirm electrical compatibility before ordering.
The larger Handymaid-i is better suited to teams that steam garments continuously with few breaks, as it offers up to 100 minutes of steam from a 3-litre boiler. This 2.5-litre version is more appropriate for regular light to medium commercial use. Both have 1.5kW power and all-metal construction, but the larger model provides longer operating time between refills.
