Worked great for a week
For the first week this iron was working great.
Previous iron was a philips azure and the steam was never good.
This Braun was ticking all the boxes with quick reheat, large water jacket and especially steam was plentiful and strong even on the level it was set at out of the box at level 3.
Only issue i had was the handle was a little loose and it was a bit hard to see the thermostat adjustment as its obscured by the handle and setting it was guess work.
So after a week the steam pretty much gave up. It would work ok straigt after ...Read more
the water tank was filled but within a few shots of steam it just wouldnt work as if the button was disconnected or something. Obviously the button was fine because once the water tank was refilled from say 3/4 tank to full the steam would be ok for a couple of shots again.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Braun SI7046VI TexStyle 7 Pro Iron Great Iron that does the job
Was tossing up between two irons and glad I went with this one as it handles all types of fabrics well. The other one did not handle delicate fabrics - but this one did!
Great amount of steam, very good.

Died at 2years old
Very disappointed to have to buy a new iron after only 2 years. It was great while it worked- heated up quickly, no water leakage once hot, auto shut off and textile protector was great on delicate and black fabric. But 2 years (almost to the day) it started smoking after about 1hr of ironing and now won't heat up when I turn it on. I won't be buying another Braun iron.

2yrs of everyday ironing and still working as new
This iron puts all previous irons including the last 4 top of the range Tefal irons to absolute shame.
The sapphire sole plate still looks brand new and glides exactly the same. The iron doesn't leak while ironing at all, although patience is needed till iron has fully heated otherwise it will leak.

Serviceable, but not much more
The Braun steam iron is adequate but not much more. It is well made and feels comfortable when in use with enough weight to it but is not overly heavy that it becomes tiring. Taking note of the advised heat settings it delivers a good flow of steam without drips. The steam flow gradations are a bit optimistic though with no steam evident from 1 to 2 but seems to come on vigorously from 3 onwards. It was not obvious if the flow of steam was greater at max (6) compared to 3. Similarly, it was hard to tell if the steam burst (Vario plus steam) del...Read more
ivers extra steam when using a steam setting, though if used with no steam and the burst was used, steam is produced but not much. A feature of the iron is Precision Shot which is meant to generate a strong burst of steam in the horizontal and vertical positions. It sort of works but is mostly rather feeble even at the max heat setting and priming it first. The manual shows steam being shot out of two nozzles at the front but this does not happen. In the vertical position it is useless and is unable to steam clothes hanging up, despite the claims made in the manual. Overall, it irons well enough but the extra steam settings are not particularly good.Purchased in November 2021 for $115.00.

Does the job without any issues
It's lightweight and gets the job done. Myself and my housemates all use it with no issues and no complaints. No reported leakages, heats up quickly, and goes into "sleep mode" automatically when left on, which is a helpful safety feature. No amazing whiz bang features, but meets expectations for a base model. Would buy again.

Perfect Everyday Iron
Great little Iron. Heats up within 30 seconds and does a sufficient job on all my business clothing (Pants and Shirts). Has not damaged any non-iron properties on t-shirts or cause any issues with delicates.

Works as expected
This iron is decent, can't say its the best iron but it does its job. From time to time, the iron does leak. It does work well on all different types of fabric and I would say its quiet reliable as I have had other irons and they have no lasted that long. Overall, performs well enough for what its meant to do.

Really happy with this item apart from a few small things
A nice shape that is comfortable to pick up and move around. May be a little heavy for people with arthritis. Irons smoothly, I've had it for about a year now and the plate is still nice and clean.
The steam is strong, but you have to make sure you've got the right steam setting for the heat chosen or it will leak while ironing. Good range of light heat to strong heat settings - although it took me a while to finally find the ironing heat guide on the bottom of the iron! A copy of this in the manual would be good.
The water cup provided is t...Read more
oo small to be of any use, I'm not going to refill it a dozen times to fill up the iron once when I can use a large water jug instead. Either make the cup bigger or ditch it, it's now just a bit of plastic rubbish for me. Also a bit stupid that although the iron can only be filled from the horizontal position, the water fill measuring lines (including the one you're not supposed to go above) are only accurate when the iron is in the vertical position. So you add some water, turn the iron back up to measure, turn it back down to fill, turn it back up to measure etc :(. Using the heat and steam levels correctly, the iron works perfectly on delicates and polyesters.Purchased in July 2021 at Myer.

Broke at 3 and a half years
It was a good machine as it did a very good job. But it just worked for 3.5 years then it stop heating. At a $98 (on sale) it should have last longer. Called 2 repair shops, they said the part to repair would have been the hotplate and there is no parts available. Seems to be that Braun uses closed parts that can't be open therefore the only option is to throw away the iron and get a new one. More waste.

I'm Happy With It
Works pretty good so far. Not too heavy and the amount of steam required can be adjusted. It hasn't stuck to anything yet, unlike my last one, so I am very happy.

Linen Perfect
At last an iron that really does get hot enough to iron pure linen and pure cotton. Since purchasing this iron my steam generator iron has been left untouched and all my ironing has been done with the Braun. It is heavier than most similar irons making it ideal for those fabrics which require pressing as well as heat.
The soleplate has a good pattern of steam holes and lots of them. There is a sliding scale control for the amount of steam produced. The instructions say that the soleplate should be cleaned with steel wool which I haven't had to ...Read more

Anti-dripping however start dripping so much the first moment when I used it.
As per my title, I bought the iron "TexStyle 7 Steam Iron with Eloxal Solepl" from goodguy few days ago and pickup yesterday. As I was using it, the water start dripping from the holes. Really bad. Now, I have to travel back again to the shop for refund and at the moment I do not have the times. So felt really let down with the product.

Very disappointed
I bought this iron just over 2 years ago and was pretty happy with it most of the time. It did leak at times if not on the hottest setting and is quite heavy but I coped. Unfortunately today the iron is not heating up. The light blinks and then nothing! I would have thought a reputable brand like Braun would last much longer than this. Very disappointed and unsure if ai would purchase again.

Best iron I've had - and I've been through a few!
Excellent steaming capability, especially good for items that crease easily
Nice weight which contributes to its ability to remove creases, and nice to hold
Excellent cord length - not too short
Can't fault it:)

Good reliable feel
Good hefty feel to it without actually being too heavy, and is comfortable to weild.
Intuitive design, swift heating and has loads of bells and whistles.
Several steaming options to choose from but also simple enough for the layman to pick up and use without the aforementioned abundance of added features.
Adequate enough cable length and the overall design looks and feels very sleek.
Good on all my clothes of varying fabrics, impressed at how quick, easy and smooth gliding it feels.
Got a good Amazon Cashback deal on this and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Perfect for the job
This is probably the best iron I have ever used, and I have been through quite a few.
Heats up quickly, and the steam function is excellent. It sits very sturdily on the ironing board and I have never had an issue with leaking. Highly recommended.

Very good, but did not last as long as expected
I have been very happy with this iron but it has recently stopped heating. Had it lasted longer I'd have given it 5 stars.
It lasted 3 years and 2 months. I believe the warranty was 12 months, but for $145 I thought I would get maybe 5 years with it. It has been well looked after and still looks like new. I took it to my local wonderful Repair Cafe (check these out on the web for one near you) as it was out of warranty so had nothing to lose. Long story short, it needed a replacement part but sadly these are no longer available. Now it will go to landfill, like many other items that are irreparable these days.
I'll probably replace the iron with a Tefal or Phillips, and will be looking for a longer warranty period.

Amanda D.asked
Why did it catch on fire brought in October this normal takes two years before my irons catch on fire or stop working. Can you recommend a iron that can handle 6 to 12 hours of ironing per week. Every time they catch on fire I buy a different brand. I had not had a Braun before . Why do l irons catch on fire ? Amanda
2 answers
I would be more worried about your dwellings safety switch not killing the power when your iron/s supposably caught on fire.
"Mike"
Thanks for your "concern" about my safety switch, it works just fine thanks, unlike the iron. I would gladly pay overs for an iron that works more than 8 weeks.

I don't have this particular model, however the manual for this iron is available as a free download from the Braun website. Hopefully this will answer your question.
