Advantages: Heats up quick

Disadvantages: price...

Not many people like ironing, especially me. So anything to make ironing a little bit easier is great! I was recently bought this iron as a gift when I moved into my new home. I have seen this being sold in Tesco before for over £100.00 so it was a pretty generous gift. I would never have spent such money on an iron but after using this for a few weeks I can see why people love it and spend so much money on it.

The iron heats up very quickly, and heats the water up too. The water tank holds 1100ml of water which is fab if you are doing a huge pile of ironing as it means you do not need to keep refilling the water tank. The iron comes with a tank which it rests on, that is quite heavy, however, the actual iron is very light in weight.

As with most irons it is a simple case of fill with water - plug in and go. The iron seems to glide over clothes really well, int he past I have had to push down very hard to get rid of creases, and after feeling how light this iron actually is I thought that I would have to do the same thing. I was wrong!

Another great feature on this iron is that you can adjust the rate in which the steam comes out!

Overall I would give this iron 10/10 it is fast at heating up and quick at removing creases. Great timesaver!

Summary: love it!
