The ESP-2's streamlined design can be operated with one hand, reducing the strain commonly associated with ironing. The Singer ESP2 press can be placed on a table so the operator can be comfortably seated while using the press. Pressing will not distort the fabric grain or stretch fabrics the way ironing does, allowing you to take better care of your fabric and reduce shine commonly caused by ironing. Using the Singer ESP2 will also improve quilt-piecing accuracy by pressing instead of ironing. Pressing helps eliminate the possibility of distorting the fabric, resulting in more exact piecing. When working on projects that require fusing, your results are more precise when using a press.

25" x 10" Pressing Area Since the ESP-2's pressing surface is almost 9 times larger than a conventional iron, pressing time is greatly reduced. In a fraction of the time, large fabric surfaces such as table linens and draperies can have a professional-looking press.

100 Pounds of Pressure Use a gentle motion to lower the handle and 100 pounds of pressure is exerted. Effortlessly places creases and pleats in even in fabrics that tend to resist creasing fabrics, such as jeans. With 100 pounds of pressure, it is easy to remove stubborn wrinkles or press several layers at one time.

1540 Watts The ESP2 heats up quickly and stays hot with its 1540 Watt rating. Presses better, faster and longer than other presses at comparable prices. If you are using your press for ironing on stabilizer for your embroidery project this is definately the press for you.

Electronically Pumped Variable Steam Steam helps eliminate wrinkles and set creases. The ESP-2's steam is pumped electrically from the 300ml water tank to give a true burst of steam, not just a squirt. The steam openings cover the entire pressing area, ensuring the total pressing area receives the benefits of steam.

No-Steam Option The press can operate as a dry press which is ideal for delicate fabrics.

Power and Temperature Ready Indicator The power and temperature ready indicators take the guess work out of knowing the press's temperature. Choose the nylon, silk, wool, cotton or linen setting. The ESP-2's indicator light will illuminate when it reaches the correct temperature. The press will then remain at a consistent temperature, protecting your fabrics.

Electronic Alarm The alarm sounds every 10 seconds if the handle is left down. The alarm will remind you to lift the handle to ensure that fabrics are not exposed to the heating plate for too long.

Plenty of Space at the Back of the Pressing Board There is ample room behind the pressing board for holding table cloths, bed linens, draperies, and other large items as they are being pressed.

Safety Shut-Off If the handle is left up for 15 minutes the power to the heating unit is stopped. The safety shut-off also works if the handle is left down for 10 seconds. Automatic Safety Shut-Off offers you peace of mind knowing that the unit cannot be left on unattended.

Portable Lock the handle and it conveniently stores in a vertical position. The press's weight (only 22 pounds) allows for easy transportation.
