Would you recommend this model for polyester tablecloths &amp; linens? I own a linen rental store, looking for heavy duty steamer.

Yes, I have discovered that I probably should have bought the smaller one (it's a little overkill for home use, takes too long to warm up) but when I have to steam both cotton and synthetic tablecloths, it's great. I would totally get it for your use.

I have been using the Wagner steamer for everything - and, as far as I'm concerned, it works just fine. I don't have to steam dress shirts anymore - hubby has retired. But I still have casual and a few dress slacks. I have been using the window cleaning tool, which helps smooth the fabric. It makes it possible to put a slight crease in slacks and sleeves. I press it agains my hanging ironing board to do collars. It works for 90% of what I do, and although I've been very particular over the years, I've relaxed some in this regard.If Wagner reads these posts, most of us would appreciate an attachment for garment steaming, though.

YES!! Very well. My niece uses it daily in her bridal shop for all their gowns. I was thoroughly impressed by the professional quality of this steamer when I steamed 32 large table cloths for a wedding with it. Worked like a dream. Must hang the item being steamed. Steam needs to flow through the item for best results. Tip from the pros: Fill with DISTILLED water for wedding gowns, so they won't turn yellow or have brownish yellow 'stains' from the chlorinated water. I'm bound and determined to have this steamer. I've personally owned two others that were returned for their lack of putting out quality steam. This one is the real deal. YES!! Very well.

I tried it with the white muslin, and I suggest you don't. It was more wrinkled coming out than into the washer and dryer. My wife had a steamer unit that did the best when the muslin was hanging on the cross-beam. I suggest you do the same.

No, not this one. It could result in moisture getting into the flooring and causing warpage and damage to the wood.Some steamers are specifically designed for hardwood floors.

I am sorry I can't offer you a comparison. I went for the 9280 because I iron a large variety of fabrics, and I sew as well. I have owned the iron for less than a month, but I have ironed linen, polyester chiffon, 100% cotton (both knit and woven), girl scout patches, and cotton poly blends. No leaking, no scorching. This is a big, heavy iron that ejects lots of steam, so be prepared. It glides smoothly and effortlessly. I have experienced no scorching or yucky marks transferring to the soleplate after almost a month of daily use.

I cannot help you as I use these things solely for steaming things that should be kept moist. I did not save the book. But contact Nordic. They should help you. Sorry.

I just threw my white tablecloths in the washer with a Tide pod and hot water. I used "Shout" on any stains and they came out perfectly. I didn't even need to iron them since they are a polyester blend.

Ask manufacturer, I don't know. It get plenty hot to do wrinkled cotton and steam works great!

Excellent steamer for t-shirts and jersey knit materials but not specially a cleaner,but makes most items wrinkle free or odor free (as to prolong dry cleaning process). I used this item mostly for new brought items to kill any germs that might be in items from persons trying items on.

You don't want use it for dress shirts and pants.. A steam pro station much better for that like a Rowenta Pro Precision. I use the rotary iron for high volume of bedding, table cloths, napkins which it is so great for. Hope this helps you ....

This unit is rather large & sort of bulky....i just got one the other day, and i still have lots of questions...i assembled it, and filled it with some water & waited until the light came one & tried it out, but i don't think i had the right attachment....i too would like to know how hot the steam gets & what all can i use this on? i thought it might be good to clean some of our grandson's toys, etc...i think i'll call the info number this week....

I bought the 5 ply NC-00238 and it fits well with the 32cm steamer, the best thing I have ever bought for the kitchen.

I would say no. It is more for cleaning. You need to search for a clothing steamer.

Hi Cathy, Thank you for the question. I would not recommend that steamer. I have had two of them and the plastic bottoms deteriorated and broke apart -- unusable. I then purchased the Secura 3-tier stainless steel food steamer with steam 360 technology at Amazon. I totally love it. I works great--very happy. Plus, you are not getting the plastic by-products in your food. Have a great day!

Aren't garment steamers much more gentle than the steam blast this machine produces? I would be very careful about using this machine as a garment steamer.
