Venkillian Upright Garment Clothes Steamer with 12 Steam Levels, 6 Bar & 1400W

If you’re fed up with ironing boards taking over the room, an upright steamer like this Venkillian model is a practical alternative. It’s designed for quick wrinkle release on everyday garments and home soft furnishings, with adjustable steam levels so you can dial things back for more delicate fabrics.

On paper, it looks aimed at people who want “proper steaming” rather than a basic handheld: 1400W power, up to 6 bar steam pressure, and a stated steam output of 95g/min. It also reaches a high maximum steam temperature (170°C) and is claimed to steam up fast (50 seconds). That all adds up to a tool that should feel efficient when you’re working through shirts, dresses or even curtains.

Key takeaways

The biggest reason to consider this steamer is control. With 12 steam levels, you’re not locked into one setting for everything, which matters if you’re steaming a mix of fabrics (from cotton to more delicate textiles). It also includes pulse steam, a rotating 90° iron head, and a ceramic-coated soleplate for more even heat distribution.

There are also a few comfort and safety touches that make it easier to live with day to day. Dual overheating protection, a low water tank alert, and a self-cleaning function are the kind of features that help with longer-term reliability. It’s not a “set and forget” appliance, but it does aim to be reassuring.

What to know before you buy

This is an upright vertical garment steamer, so it’s most at home when you’re steaming hanging items. The folded design includes a foldable ironing board for both horizontal ironing and vertical steaming, which gives you flexibility if you occasionally prefer a more traditional surface.

A limitation to keep in mind: steamers can’t always replace every type of crisp, flat ironing, especially if you’re chasing very sharp creases on thick fabric. If your expectations are “pressing” rather than “refreshing”, you may find yourself combining methods.

Also, while it’s meant to be versatile for home, hotel, office and studios, the real-world fit depends on how often you steam bulky items like sofa covers or heavier curtains. If that’s your main use, you’ll likely appreciate the larger tank and strong steam output—otherwise a smaller model could be enough.

Where it shines in everyday use

For shirts and everyday clothes, the value is speed and setup. In a typical routine, you can hang a shirt on a rail, set the steam to a higher level for quicker release (the instructions suggest using maximum for first-time use), then move the nozzle steadily over the fabric. The rotating 90° iron head and pulse steam function are there to help with deeper crease areas.

For curtains and soft furnishings, steaming tends to be less faff than board ironing. You can refresh the fabric in place and reduce the “just washed but still creased” look without having to fully remove everything.

If you’re working in a studio or tailoring environment, the included foldable ironing board and stabilising frame mean you have more of a working stance than you’d get with a handheld-only approach.

Steam control and build design

The 12-level steam control is a clear focus here, especially because the product description calls out suitable care for materials like silk, linen, cotton, polyester and delicate textiles. You get the sense it’s trying to cover both everyday fabrics and the ones that can be tricky with heat.

For stability and storage, it features a telescopic aluminium pole adjustable from 1.3 m to 1.67 m, plus a sturdy triangular support frame. There’s also a single wheel for easier movement. That matters if your steamer lives in a utility room or needs occasional repositioning between laundry space and guest rooms.

Safety, tank size and maintenance

This model includes dual overheating protection and a low water tank alert. It also has a self-cleaning function, which is helpful if you use it regularly—less maintenance hassle over time than models without any cleaning cycle.

The water tank is listed as 1.6 L and detachable, which should reduce the number of refill stops for typical household tasks. Still, how long a full session lasts will depend on the steam setting you use, higher levels will naturally consume water faster.

Included extras are also part of the “ready to use” pitch: the steamer, ironing board cloth cover, gloves and towel, plus the water tank.

Pros

• 12 steam levels for more careful fabric matching
• Strong stated performance: 1400W, up to 6 bar, and fast steam-up (50 seconds)
• Pulse steam and a rotating 90° iron head to tackle stubborn creases
• Safety features include dual overheating protection and low water tank alert
• Self-cleaning function aimed at longer-term upkeep

The bits that may not suit everyone

• If you’re after razor-sharp, flat “pressed” results on thick fabrics, a steamer may feel limiting and you might still rely on conventional ironing
• Steam-focused appliances can be more dependent on technique (moving speed, distance and fabric tension), so results vary if you haven’t used a steamer before
• The upright design is convenient, but it’s still a larger appliance than a basic handheld for compact storage

FAQs

Is this steamer suitable for delicate fabrics?

The description specifically mentions adjustable care for materials such as silk, linen, cotton, polyester and delicate textiles. The practical takeaway is that the 12 steam levels should help you choose a gentler setting when needed.

What’s included with the steamer?

A detachable 1.6 L water tank, the steamer unit, an ironing board cloth cover, gloves and a towel are listed.

Final verdict

It’s worth buying if you want an upright garment steamer that’s built around control—12 steam levels, pulse steam, and a rotating head make it better suited to mixed loads of clothing and household fabrics than a one-setting steamer. It also makes sense if you value safety and maintenance features like overheating protection and self-cleaning.

You may want to skip it if your top priority is perfectly crisp, pressed results on heavy fabrics, or if you only steam very occasionally and would rather store a smaller device. If you’re the sort of buyer who steams regularly—shirts, dresses, curtains, suit jackets in a home, guest room or studio—this one looks like it has enough power and flexibility to justify the space it takes.
