Can this be used for virticle steaming such as on a hanging garment?

Actually yes, you can, though for large jobs, you'd want a steamer made specifically for that purpose. There's an extra long steam hose made for the i500s and larger, specifically for vertical steaming, so if you plan to do large vertical jobs and pressing, the i500 might be a better fit.

I think it would be very impractical. This is a traditionally shaped iron and it is heavy... which is great for traditional ironing or the kind of pressing I do with sewing garments. I love it. But, it would NOT occur to me to use it for vertical steaming.

You can sit it on a table with no problem, I'm sure. The hose is heavily corrugated, but you would probably want to use gloves holding the hose. It produces a steady, thin stream of steam, however I have no idea how it would work steaming hats.

If you are thinking about using it to steam wrinkles out of fabric, clothing, etc...though I haven't used it for that, the steam is certainly ample enough, there are a few diffusing attachments to spread out the steam so, assuming you don't scald yourself, I doubt there is any wrinkle that could withstand the steam....that said...try it on a small section at first and wear gloves in case the steam contacts your hands while handling the item you are steaming. I've heard people use their steam iron to shot a jet of steam at wrinkled fabric....even if that does work, it's gotta be clunky to manage and the Easy Steam has got to be 100 times more effective...hope that helps?

Yes it can, just make sure you don't overfill it so, and let it steam a little while so all that comes out is the steam, not any drops of water. It works very well on all materials.

I have not done that, but I don't see why not. It is very nice and highly recommend for steaming fish!

When I owned this the company made an accessory that could be used for steaming clothing ...at an extra cost. I never used it on rugs. Don't know about that one.

I am sure that you can. I am not sure what you want to use it for but keep in mind that this does put out a significant amount of steam which may be invisible and will cook your skin on contact. Depending on the amount of water you put in it the time to get to the steam part will vary. I usually fill mine all the way up and it doesn't take too long to get going though. It just isn't as quick as say a clothes steamer. I have had zero problems with mine and it seems to be a good quality item. KEN

I just checked and hanging shirts on hangers will work nicely. I use mine for hanging wool socks, and it is perfect for that. I drape my socks over the rods.

the material is great, I would hang it to dry, when its rehung, the shower will produce steam for whatever wrinkles.

Yes that is correct. This is not really a garment steamer. I use mine to steam and reshape hats.

There is an attachment and setting for garments. I have not used mine for that but it is set up for it.

The hose is about 4 feet long--plenty to do any garments hung on the rack at the top of the stand. The whole unit stands about 5' tall and the hose reaches about an inch or two higher than the top of the fully extended hanging rack. If you want to use this to steam curtains or fabric hanging on some other place than the rack, you might have to retract the hanging arm and pick up the unit to get the reach you would desire. It's a GREAT little unit. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I suspect it could. Depending on the thickness of the material, I think this steamer could work just as well on curtains as it does on my suits.

If you mean an attachment for that singular purpose, then no, but if you mean the hanger which opens up to allow you hang pants and steam them, yes.This device is for basic steaming in your home. Admittedly it is a good product and I use it in my stores, but it is just a steamer. The only way I know how to crease pants is with an iron. Which is not included.

Well, when you spray with this, it's wet/damp...so I don't know if steaming the garment will help. Once you spray this, you pull/stretch the wrinkles out so steaming won't hurt it but I don't really think it would help either. Now I have used an warm iron to assist in drying the relaxer...just not a steamer. I hope this helps.

I'm not sure what the reason would be for doing that, but I don't see why not. you would have to be sure you were not near the stem outlet to prevent a steam burn of course.

There is an insert which is like a basket. I think it could be used as a steamer.
