Reviews of Irons »

Steaming ahead of the market!

Advantages: Everything!
Disadvantages: So expensive!

This iron is simply amazing; expensive, but amazing. You could probably iron two tee shirts at once, it's so powerful and quick! I only need to iron one side of a garment once, rather than going over the same spot several times or spray it with water first, even on jeans! I have just done a duvet cover, folded in half, ironing only one side and finished it in about a minute! Don't be worried by all that steam either; there are several presets on ...
...the type of material you are ironing, so you won't destroy any delicate garments. The steam is so powerful that you can even hold the iron a couple of inches above your clothes and blast out the creases without touching the material, saving delicate garments from damage. Make sure to use a low setting though! This iron works by filling the reservoir with tap water and letting it heat up for approximately 30 seconds. Make sure you have chosen your ...

Not good!

Advantages: Very efficient when new, I was very impressed for the first few months.
Disadvantages: Poor quality product, not durable, and dreadful customer service from Philips staff

...over time. I phoned Philips for advice - they confirmed that no descaling should be necessary...but tell that to the dirty brown sludge that spat out every time I tried to iron something. So, ultimately, the iron got louder and louder (a downside of steam generators) and the performance got worse and worse, until finally, I just couldn't put up with the dripping heap of rubbish any more! I stress that it was fab when new, but it's lack of durability, ...

Disadvantages: - the steamer making really strange voices, - its quite heavy, - in higher temperatures (allowed f

It is my first bought iron (before i was using one Tefal iron - light and quite good one, dont remember the model). This iron had to be not a budget one, but for a years. After buying it i was a little dissapointed, and if had to choose again, probably i would search an iron among Tefal (or try others, before buying). Here are pluses and minuses.

Reliable, basic steam generator

Advantages: Light, easy to use, easy to refill, makes ironing quicker and easier.
Disadvantages: Difficult to store, tank poor shape.

...needing to be refilled, the Morphy Richards lasts me for at least an hour. With the water tank (which can't be detatched) the iron isn't particularly easy to store, I've kept the original box and return the iron to that after each use but with the box being cardboard I'm not sure that this offers a longterm solution. I've also had a bit of a problem placing the iron and tank on my ironing board. It doesn't feel all that secure so I think that at ...

...We decided on a Morphy Richards 42296 Elite steam generator Why Morphy Richards and who are Morphy Richards This is a company that I know has made many household appliances for many years, after some research I can now tell you that they have developed and manufactured products for over 70 years. To be more exact the company started back in 1935 when two friends Charles Richards and Donald Morphy formed the name we know and love so well today. ...
...Personal Opinion – Morphy Richards is a name that I can trust and will continue to trust for years to come, there reliable and provide excellent products at affordable prices.
