I bought this at an estate sale of a lady that made draperies in her basement. The D 17 model draws 800 watts, it is set up to sit on a table although I believe the handle can be moved for a ceiling mount. The hose is 3.5 M long about 13 feet, included is a adjustable counter weight to keep the iron off the fabric when not being used. There are some good Youtube videos that show the operation and give operating instructions.
