Russell Hobbs Powersteam Ultra 3100 W Vertical Steam Iron 20630 - Black and Grey

Product Information

Step 2: Set to the appropriate steam and temperature setting - When steam ironing, you must set the steam control to steam and the temperature control to a temperature equal to or higher than the steam symbol on the dial. You also get a powerful vertical steam function that’s ideal for getting the wrinkles out of hanging garments, curtains and upholstery. Thanks to a non-slip heel and anti-drip feature, this innovative iron couldn't be easier to use. Just one touch of those chunky buttons delivers a powerful 210g steam shot, and the iron provides 70g continuous steam. The Russell Hobbs Powersteam Ultra can also be used for vertical steaming - great for blasting out wrinkles from hanging clothes, hanging curtains and furnishing fabrics. Good every day iron for regular use. The iron looks similar to others apart from the quite pointy tip, the instructions on how to use the different functions and fill up with water etc were clear and simple and all the functions were easy to find and switch on and off. Also, to prevent shiny patches, you can put a cloth (e.g. a tea towel) between the iron and the fabric.

When you hear the word "iron", a traditional steam iron is probably the first thing that springs to mind. These compact models feature a built-in water tank that heats up and releases steam to relax the fabric and remove any creases.

The buttons are chunky and the slide moves smoothly from top to bottom, so the whole thing feels very user-friendly.
