Really good Iro
I am so Happy about this Iron. It was 50 cheaper than in the store.
Steamiron is on the heave sidee
I like the Idea it has auto temp control so nothing will stick
Excellent iron.
Best iron I’ve ever used. Very hot not too heavy. A must buy for effortless ironing.b
Very nice shaped
It’s a very good item nice long cord and it works very well with the different types of materials temperatures set up themselves only bad things is I think it is very heavy and also it tips over easily if in the upright position apart from that I would recommend this iron for the price
Does a great job of ironing without any heating adjustment control.
Very good cable length, no need for an extension lead. Cable tidies away, no controls and works very well.
Great to use!
Bought this in a rush and didn’t realise it had no temperature dial! Soooo, very nervous when I first used it. But, now I just love this iron. The handle is so comfortable to hold, and it irons everything wonderfully well.
Best iron I have owned
I have never owned very expensive irons before. I did have a middling steam generator from regal before this, which Came with the apartment I was renting. But when I had to move, I decided I would get a stand alone iron. The steam generator just takes up too much space and getting it out is the bigger mental block for me than the chore of ironing. I tried a cheap iron first, but just could not take to it. It was like rubbing a sand paper over clothes compared to the tefal I had. So then decided I would buy a proper iron after doing some looking around. Landed up on this. The ironing on this is definitely a lot better an experience than the cheaper irons. And compared to tefal I had, it takes lesser ironing to remove the wrinkles. I haven’t thrown too many challenging combinations of garments at it, but so far the temperature control is working as advertised. Overall, happy with the purchase.

it does what it says on the box
I received the iron very promptly It is brilliant this is from someone who detests ironing. I did wonder if it would work as it said it does I ironed bed linen mixture of pure cotton and poly/cotton and no altering the temp, I even tried a flimsy scarf no problems. I can recommend this iron very pleased.
best iron I have brought eve
It’s a heavy iron and bigger then I expected as it’s bugger than my old iron as you can see from the picture but it’s an amazing iron all round u can iron from 1 fabric straight to the next any type y want when u come to it no need to wait it auto changes depends on the speed y iron the slower u go the lower the temperature goes
Quick iro
Amazing for quick ironing but it does steam the room up and needs water filling often.
Love it!!
Bought when on offer, best iron I’ve ever had, definitely recommend
Great iro
So far so good, great for getting creases out only slight issue I would have is having to fill up the water tank regularly but everything else is grea
The first on is Used product!!! But the replacement one is perfec
I think the product has been used before! When I open the box, there are some water on the surface of the iron. And there are some loose scale particles in the quick calf release. And the main point, there are 2 scratches on the iron surface!!!!!!
Updated: The replacement one is in perfect condition.
Perfect ironing with less hassle
Really like this iron and the fact you don’t have to sort clothes. You can just lift cotton item one second and synthetic the next. The only drawback is you have to fill the small water tank quite often as it produces a lot of steam. It was an expensive iron but I think it was well worth i
Super iron! Not very reliable!
I have two minor gripes about an otherwise excellent iron. It’s heavier than expected & therefore more difficult to lift into an upright position. The instructions say that you don’t need to stand it up, you can leave it flat on the ironing board. Which leads me on to my second gripe! Despite having a mesh ironing board with a thick fabric cover, the area where the iron sits while I move the garment ready to iron the next bit, it gets very damp thanks to the steam. Having said that, despite the gripes it does an excellent job of ironing and has a good length of cable.
Update: sadly, have had to return it (November) as it stopped working, despite trying it in three different sockets and cleaning the filter yet again.

super iro
It is a super iron, no settings required for different jobs, but it is very pricey. For the money we shouldn’t have to put up with flimsy brittle plastics though. The front “door” where you put the water in is an example. This is our second Elite, the plastic on the first one came to grief. The poor quality of the plastic bits knocked the star rating off a would be 5* for the rest of the iron.

Brilliant for pressing cotton for quilting.
Amazing, this iron is great. So easy to use, never burns, glides easily. A little heavy though.
2 year warranty
Great Iron.
Dislike. The same iron that I bought before
this one emitted smoke and foul electrical burning smell after 7 months. With the warranty of 2 years sent that one back with a 1 week turn around. Bought this new one ( a week is too long not to have an iron), now we have two the same ( so now we have a spare for next time). Will see how long the new one lasts.
🙂
amazing
makes the chore of ironing a shorter occurrence and a very professional finish
Great Iro
Although the iron is slightly heavier than other ones of the same size it glides beautifully over the garments and irons them flat without any effort.
Good produc
Very good product. Found it really weird that I wasn’t in control of a temperature dial but it works well on all different materials.
Quite heavy but as you don’t have to stand it up once you’re underway, not a problem
