Premium iron
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

It's one of my favourite iron so far. It does the job brilliantly. It feels heavy and expensive.

Very disappointed but not with seller
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I am absolutely disgusted with this product. I have contacted Philip's myself numerous times and have been ignored. The water leaks out of the water spout and runs down the handle and on to the electrical cord

Happy with this iron
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I’m glad that I have choosen this over the big steam genarator stationsThis iron is light, easy to use and has got long cordI have been using it for a month and there was no leaks so farThe steaming settings are great as you can choose from few optionsThe cover is black but seethru and you can still see how much water is in the tank and top it up any time

Good iron

I've always had Phillips irons because I feel they have all the functions I want. Good steam and water spray. I like how you can iron between buttons with the button groove.

Quick to reach temperature and excellent cord length
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

This is a great iron. Simple to use, reaches temperature quickly, holds a reasonable amount of water and has a sensibly long electric cord. There's a useful groove just above the plate so you can get around buttons easily and I'm very pleased with the overall results.

Great iron
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

Had to panic buy a new iron because our old one died suddenly. This iron so far has been great. Nice and light and easy to use. My only minor moan is that when I am using it I keep knocking the dial and changing the setting as the dial moves very easily.

My third Iron, same type, different colour.
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I had to buy this and throw away our older model. My wife rates it as a better Iron so that's fine. Reason I had to buy this is that I had a golf club fall over and the shaft hit the transparent steam cover jut in front of the handle. It broke and I couldn't mend it. I tried but the pivot pin had snapped off, and my wife complained at being scalded... She prefers the colour but I would have liked a stronger steam cover.

This iron really works well with good heat and steam and does a great job on all fabrics so far..I have the black version and the only problem i have found is that it is difficult to see the water level when filling so easy to over fill but otherwise pretty good
