Good product
4 Stars for the looks and lightweight design. 1star deducted because of a slower startup and smaller glove size coming with it.

This garment steamer does not get wrinkles out of linens and cottons. I have since discovered it is more of a refresher than a replacement for an iron. I am in the process of trying to return this steamer to Philips to get a refund and believe me it is a long process.

Garment steamer
Happy with the steamer- much easier to do quick touch up on suit jackets keeping them looking sharpe without needing to get the ironing board out.

At a glance
This entry-level standing garment steamer is a practical pick for households that want fast wrinkle removal without setting up an ironing board. It suits everyday clothes care, delicate fabrics and quick touch-ups, with 3 steam settings, a 1.8 L tank and integrated Styleboard. Its main limitation is that it is less powerful and precise than premium steam stations or dedicated irons for crisp, heavy-duty finishing.
What it’s great for
- Everyday garment care
- Quick wrinkle removal
- Delicate fabric steaming
- Coat and dress touch-ups
- Clothing refresh between washes
Where it works best
- Home laundry
- Bedroom dressing area
- Apartment living
- Family home
- Small wardrobe space
Who it’s for
- Busy households
- Everyday home users
- Renters
- People who avoid ironing boards
- Users with mixed fabric wardrobes
Things to consider
With continuous steam up to 36 g/min, it is well suited to everyday de-wrinkling, but premium garment steamers and steam irons can deliver faster results and sharper finishes on heavy fabrics or formal wear.
Travel friendliness
Low - designed as a full-size standing steamer for home use rather than travel.
Allergy friendliness
7/10 - hot steam can help refresh garments and is stated to remove over 99.9% of bacteria, though it is not a specialist allergy-treatment appliance.
Quick refresh suitability
8/10 - 45-second heat-up and continuous steam make it well suited to fast pre-wear touch-ups.
Ease of use rating
8/10 - simple controls, adjustable poles, detachable tank and onboard support make everyday steaming straightforward.
Noise level vs category average
About average - expected to produce typical standing steamer boiler and steam noise without evidence of low-noise design.
Key benefits
- 1.8 L detachable water tank: Lets you steam multiple garments with fewer refill interruptions and makes top-ups easier.
- 36 g/min continuous steam: Delivers steady steam output for quick wrinkle removal with only a few strokes.
- 3 steam settings: Helps you match steam intensity to thinner fabrics, everyday clothing and thicker garments.
- Integrated Styleboard: Provides support behind garments so steaming feels more controlled and effective.
- 45-second heat-up: Gets ready fast when you need a quick outfit refresh before heading out.
- Safe on all ironable fabrics: Suitable for delicate items as well as everyday garments, reducing the need to sort by fabric type.
- Adjustable double poles: Makes it easier to steam garments of different lengths, from shirts to longer dresses and coats.
- Included accessories: The heatproof glove, fabric brush and hanger help improve convenience and garment handling during steaming.
Q: Can this stand steamer replace an iron for work shirts and trousers?
A: No. Philips 1000 Series is better for quick de-wrinkling and refreshing than for a crisp pressed finish on collars, cuffs and trouser creases. Deeply set folds can take longer to smooth, and an iron is usually more precise for sharp edges.
Q: Is the integrated Styleboard useful for steaming jackets and thicker fabrics?
A: Yes. The integrated Styleboard gives garments a firmer backing, which makes jackets, coats and other thicker pieces easier to steam with more control. It helps support the fabric, but heavier materials still need slower passes than lighter items.
Q: Does the 1.8L tank reduce refill stops during a full session?
A: Yes. The 1.8L detachable tank is designed for longer steaming sessions, so you can work through several garments without frequent refill breaks. It is better suited to a laundry pile than a small handheld unit, and the tank removes for easier top-ups.
Q: Can you steam delicate fabrics like silk without an ironing board?
A: Yes. Philips 1000 Series is safe on all ironable fabrics, including delicate items, and the lower steam setting is the better starting point for thinner materials. The hanging design and Styleboard mean a separate ironing board is not required for normal steaming.
Q: How quickly is it ready for a last-minute clothing touch-up?
A: Philips 1000 Series heats up in 45 seconds, so it suits quick touch-ups before getting dressed or heading out. That fast start helps on busy mornings, though thick fabrics and deep creases will still take more time than a light blouse or shirt.
