Know before you buy
The cork handle is designed to provide a natural, non-slip grip that stays comfortable during longer ironing sessions. It is also moisture-absorbent, which helps keep your hand cool and steady while you work.
Yes, the unit features a vertical steam function, making it suitable for refreshing hanging clothes, curtains, or delicate fabrics that are difficult to iron on a board.
The iron includes a built-in Calc Collector that captures mineral deposits. You simply need to remove and rinse the collector periodically to ensure the steam performance remains consistent over time.
The 1.1L tank is designed to balance capacity with a compact footprint. While it is large enough to handle a standard family load of laundry without frequent refills, it is smaller than industrial-sized stations to keep the unit easy to store.
This soleplate features 400 active steam holes that ensure even steam distribution across the entire surface. This design allows for a smoother glide and more efficient wrinkle removal compared to irons with fewer steam ports.
Eco Mode reduces energy consumption by optimizing the steam output. While it uses less power, it is still effective for everyday ironing, though you may want to switch to the standard setting for heavy-duty fabrics or deep, set-in wrinkles.
