Irons > 40 GBP to 49 GBP Irons

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 ... Read review

Advantages: More steam then you can wish for
Disadvantages: None

I brought the Bosch Sensixx Comfort Power iron a few weeks ago now after mine gave up the ghost with a bang. I needed something that will be reliable and powerful, so I chose this one. ~Features~ It has the maximum power wattage which is 2600w which heats up very quickly. It has a large water container which holds up to 300ml. 3m length power cord which is very handy for me as I lack plug sockets in my home. Stainless steel scratch resistant ...
...I can happily say my customers think it is. I have never used Bosch before but am happy to say I would do again in the future so therefore I would recommend this iron. The iron comes with a full instruction manual Thank you very much for reading. ... Read review

Advantages: no more burn marks on clothes

...is heavy and although heavy irons might not suit everyone i prefer this. the ceramic plate means it glides wonderfully with little to no effort which is great because i have karate suits to iron all the time as my husband is an instructor. The only negative i have found with this iron is it has no automatic switch off like some i've seen around. ... Read review

Advantages: Solid unit allowing effortless ironing
Disadvantages: Water level difficult to check

I have had a Morphy Richards iron prior to this one so you might guess that I am generally pleased with the make. I hate ironing so a good iron that makes ironing easy is important to me. I purposely looked for an iron in this price range to ensure that it would be a decent unit, and I am not dissapointed. I bought the iron on special offer from Argos. It is a good solid heavy iron, but not too heavy to use comfortably (I am only 58Kg and 5'3"). ...
...spray nossle keeping the iron surface clean. My only critisism is that the water level is hard to check due to the lilac plastic being a little too opaque to see through properly. My last Morphy Richards lasted 5 years, and this unit has a 2 year warranty with it. ... Read review

Advantages: lightweight, non drip, easy fill, easy clean, good temperatures
Disadvantages: none that I've found.

I bought myself this Phillips steam iron after my old one kept blowing the electric to the house. Slightly serious I thought it's time I got a new iron, pronto!!! I will also basically describe the problems I had with my old heavy iron and I'm sure some of you will recognise similar problems. The opening for the filler was very small and it always spilt over resulting in a puff of steam and once filled, always leaked down the handle. I had to iron ...
...the steam off once you had filled the reservoir. Apart from blowing the electrics, nothing else!!! However, my new iron is amazing. It features The opening for filling the reservoir is nice and large and has a good fitting plug so there is no leakage by filling too quickly or otherwise. UNIQUE DRIP-STOP SYSTEM which basically stops the water dripping out of the sole plate should the temperature become too low. Great for ironing more delicate fabrics. ... Read review
