The Rapid Steam #3500 is a gravity-fed electric steam iron built for high-volume linen pressing in Canadian hotels, restaurants, and uniform services. Professional operators choose this unit for its consistent steam output and durable hard-anodized soleplate that glides through starch-heavy chef coats without sticking. A typical use: a 150-room hotel pressing 200 tablecloths daily for its restaurant and banquet halls.
Rapid Steam High-Quality Electric Gravity Fed Iron w/ Iron Shoe #3500 — Professional Grade for Canadian Food Service
This is a commercial-grade gravity iron with a 1000W heating element and a 4.6 lb weight that provides enough mass for crisp creases on linen napkins and tablecloths. The gravity feed system delivers a steady stream of steam from the overhead water bottle, so you're not stopping to refill a tank every 15 minutes. It's the go-to unit for linen rooms that process 50+ chef coats per shift.
Stocked by ChickenPieces.com at our Calgary distribution hub. Delivered Canada-wide all 10 provinces and 3 territories in 2-5 business days.
"We sold two pallets of these to a Calgary hotel group last month they run 10 irons per shift in their linen room. The gravity feed saves constant refills vs a standard iron. I'd stock an extra iron shoe per machine if you're doing high-volume napkin pressing."
In Canadian food service operations, pressing equipment is often an afterthought until you're burning through chef coats or dealing with wrinkled tablecloths on a Saturday night. The Rapid Steam #3500 addresses that directly its gravity-feed system means you get continuous steam without the pump noise or downtime of typical boiler irons. The 4.6 lb weight gives enough heft to press creases into heavy cotton aprons used in steakhouses.
