Steam Irons

[niceguy2]

Our current iron has given up the ghost last night having performed faithfully for quite a few years.

I've heard good things about those steam generator irons but don't know anyone who has used one.

Are they really that good? We have a busy family of five so anything which helps cut down the time it takes to tackle the ironing mountain can only be a good thing.

Can anyone recommend a good one? Ideally one where you don't have to buy additional limescale filters if one exists.

Thanks

i have a Tefal SG iron. had the last one for around 10 years' again Tefal.

very impressed with them. the new one has an anti calc thing on it as they do get scaled up.

however wouldn't go back to using normal iron. these are light and quick

I have a phillips steam generator and its brilliant. Wouldn't go back to a normal iron either.

I recently bought a stem generating iron and it is amazing. Would never go back to a conventional iron again.

It cuts your ironing time on half, and is just easier to use, lightweight, and very satisfying sad

If you search on topics there are a few threads about them inc one started by myself raving about mine. (Can't find link at mo as breastfeeding wee one and typing one handed as it is!)

I got mine 2 months ago and it was top of the Which tests and on offer on Amazon. A Philips one.

I havethis and its great.gets out stubborn creases and dont have to keep stopping to fill up the iron with water.
