I am shocked to find that the iron delivered had been used!! there are water drops on the surface of the water tank. When I open the tank and double-checked, it is wet!!!

I have received two of these items from amazon both showing the wires where the sole plate does not meet the top part, given that this is a steam iron and water will get into the main body I was advised not to use the iron and return them as they were not safe and fit for purpose. I do not know if the items were damaged and I was just unlucky but if there is a gap between the sole plate and the top part then the iron should not be used

Bought the iron, steam button broke. Got replacement, it broke again. Fuming! How difficult is it to make an iron that does not break? It's not a space rocket, for goodness sake!

This product is absolutely great, apart from the one we got kept leaking water from the steam vents. It would leave big blobs of water over the clothes, splashing out from the front when changing direction of the iron. It then started leaving puddles underneath itself when stored in an upright position, so when have returned it. Possibly it faulty, seemed to be more than one of the steam vents causing the issue so it might also be a design fault.

It's a small iron so inevitably smaller sole plate which means more arm work and a smaller water reservoir which needs filling more often.

This is a small iron so inevitably it has a smaller sole plate, which means more arm work and a smaller water reservoir which needs filling more often. The iron heats up quickly but is slow to start pumping steam again after setting on end. You find you've run it over half a t-shirt before the steam restarts and you have to go back over your work.

I didn't find it stuck on high settings, which is good. Nor did it drip on lower settings. However, the temperature dial is calibrated against a raised line in the plastic moulding, difficult to see as it's purple and tucked under the handle - some way of picking it out in white would definitely help!

Overall, a reasonable economy iron - ideal for someone who doesn't have too much laundry to iron, maybe ideal for a single person, a weekend cottage or a student in halls of residence.

This iron is fine for the money and does what it's meant to do. However, it is pretty basic and if you're looking for fancy features, look elsewhere. There is no auto-adjustment of temperature and it will catch on clothes if you're not careful (which is less of an issue with more expensive irons). Maybe worth buying as a spare or travel iron but it's hard to think this would do well as a large family's main iron. I guess it proves that you generally get what you pay for.
