I bought it because I have different fabrics and was never sure which heat setting to use, only to go over it three times afterwards; now there is absolutely no problem anymore. You do have to wait 2 minutes first, but that time flies by. It is a bit heavier, but even with a bad elbow, it is easy to handle.

Our digital expert will help you, but it can sometimes make mistakes, like humans do.
According to our iron expert
For small loads: with a steam iron, you can iron small loads wrinkle-free.
Always the right settings: the iron automatically adjusts the settings, so you’ll always iron with the right temperature and steam.
Low maintenance: limescale automatically ends up in the limescale collector, which you can easily rinse under the faucet.
Not for stubborn wrinkles: this steam iron has a low steam output, so you smooth out stubborn wrinkles less quickly.
Small water tank: because of the small water tank, you can iron less laundry in a row.
