Light weight, Works Great.
Got it as a temp replacement for our steam station that stopped working. Was a bargain from Amazon AU sale.
Heats quickly, steams ok, works well on cotton and silk, light weight. Cord is long enough. Temperature control is quick to respond.
Having used steam stations before, I would still go back to the larger Steam Stations and keep this as a backup. But for most people, this is an excellent iron. Highly recommended.

To Each His Iron
The best iron is the one that matches a user's requirements. This is an excellent 2000W steam iron. It heats up quickly. The temperature control is accurate. It has an auto shut off mechanism. But it is not for everyone.
I find it suitable for my load consisting mostly (90%) of school uniforms, business shirts and office pants. It is light, it glides smoothly, and can be swished about to and fro quickly. Wrinkles disappear in one or two strokes. The narrow tip makes me reach small areas fast. Heat is limited to the plate and the clothes bei...Read more
ng ironed and does not spread to the surrounding areas. Other irons made me feel warm and tired within half an hour of using them, but not this one. The steam output is low, which means less frequent refilling and less interruptions in ironing. Mistakes are very easy to retract, and pleats come out sharp with minimum repetition. My ironing time has been reduced considerably. But this model requires help with denim and linen. I have to either iron the fabrics while still damp or spray the fabrics with water to improve the capacity of the iron to remove the wrinkles. I think that with its low wattage, its steam output is insufficient for denim and linen. But low wattage (2000W) is important for me as I have to work within the capacity of our circuit. Also, I could live with this model's disadvantage because there are only a few (10%) denim and linen clothes in my basket. Still with adjustment, with denim and linen already damp to begin with, ironing is a breeze and I am able to achieve the quality that I want. For me, this iron works like a magic wand with school uniforms, business shirts and office pants. But while this low-powered model would still achieve good results with denim and linen, those working on mostly denim and linen might find other models more suitable.Similar opinion?

Questions & Answers

why some times spill water from steam holes?
2 answers
Hi Hassan,
Mine has never dripped water from the steam holes. Almost all modern steam irons have some form of anti-drip technology built into them.
There are 2 main reason for dripping water (i.e. the anti-drip function is not working):
- The unit is defective so you will need to get a replacement, or
- The most common reason, you are trying to use the steam function on too low of a heat setting.
To avoid dripping water from the steam vent the temperature should be set at around the cotton level or near the highest level. If the temperature is too low then water and steam will occur and this happens with all steam irons.
I hope that answers your question.
Ours hasn't dripped yet. We make sure to fill it upto the water mark and also to keep it in standing position when not in use.
If yours is still in warranty, maybe try getting it replaced.
