ABOUT THIS IRON
A great value unit from a well-known brand that is a great introduction to the benefits of steam generators. A particularly light hand iron is a major benefit.
READ MORE
If you iron only occasionally but still find it a bit of a drag with a normal iron, you should consider a low cost steam generator. This one can produce 100g of continuous steam which is around double that of a standard iron.
A large water tank of 1.3 litres means you might only need to fill up once, even with a large ironing load. The super light iron weighs less than 1 kilo yet has a smooth ceramic soleplate.
An above average 2600 watts of power means quick heat up times - you'll have that ironing pile completed in no time!
FULL SPECIFICATION

Power2600 watts
A higher wattage allows the iron to heat up quicker and maintain that heat during your ironing session
Steam100 g/min
Continuous steam output in grams per minute. Higher output = quicker ironing
ShotNone
A short, powerful burst of steam to penetrate deep into creased or thick fabric
Weight0.77 kg
Weight of the hand iron without water. Heavier irons can be more stressful on your wrist over long ironing sessions, but generally have better crease-crushing performance
SoleplateCeramic
A ceramic soleplate will give the smoothest gliding and best scratch resistance. More expensive models might also have a special coating for even better performance
Water Tank1300 ml
Higher water capacities will mean faster ironing with less time to stop and fill up, but can also increase the weight of hand irons
Cord Length1.9 metres
A longer power cord gives greater flexibility, particularly when ironing large items. (For steam generators this figure is the steam cord length from the hand iron to base unit)
Auto-OffNO
A safety feature that turns the iron off after a period of inactivity
Auto ControlsNO
Instead of the usual heat and steam selector dials, the iron will control steam and heat automatically based on fabric type. Some irons even have both traditional manual controls and an automatic mode so you get the best of both worlds
Warranty Period2 years
Standard warranty period from time of purchase (includes any extension manufacturers may give for registering with them)
