About this product

Introducing the Swan SI12022N Portable Garment Steamer – your quick and effective solution for revitalising clothes on the go. Perfect for busy individuals, students, or anyone who wants to maintain a polished look without spending hours ironing, this compact steamer delivers impressive results.

This lightweight device utilises jet steam technology, tackling creases faster than traditional handheld steamers. The powerful 1500W heating element quickly penetrates fabrics, lifting wrinkles and leaving garments looking fresh and ready to wear. The ceramic coated steam panel is gentle on delicate fabrics, minimising the risk of damage during steaming – a key benefit for those with silk or lace items.

Designed for convenience, the Swan SI12022N features a 300ml water tank, sufficient for several steaming sessions before needing to be refilled. However, continuous vertical steaming will deplete this tank relatively quickly, so it’s ideal for smaller loads and quick touch-ups. It's particularly effective at removing bacteria and odours from clothing, offering a deeper clean alongside wrinkle reduction.

This portable steamer boasts a sleek black design and is simple to use – just fill the water tank, switch it on, and steam! It’s a fantastic addition to any home wardrobe, providing a practical and efficient way to care for your clothes. It's a budget-friendly option that delivers performance, making it a valuable tool for anyone seeking effortless garment care.
