Disadvantages: None

...travel iron. Then the Home-Tek Travel Streamer Iron was thrust into my hands by a work colleague whom after hearing my moans assured me that if I took care of her precious item I could use it and return it. The Home-Tek Iron is to be blunt shaped like an old fashioned Joystick and looks nothing like an Iron or in fact a travel iron, which I must say look naff and cheap in any capacity. This iron is really lightweight and fits into my travel case ...
...decided to purchase my own. Home-Tek are not a brand I had heard of, so with my basic computer knowledge I managed to find out a little bit about the company using Google and found that they are championed by Ainsley Harriot and make an array of household good from kettles, carpet sweepers, sterilizers and irons to juicing machines, ovens and slow cookers and sell their items in 70 countries worldwide, so they are definitely a brand on the move and ...

Disadvantages: None

...pound shop that they had Comfort Vaporesse in there, I thought for just £1 it would be worth a try. It was the original type that I tried, but I wasn't overly keen on the smell so when in Sainsburys, I checked the laundry aisle and found that there is another fragrance of Vaporesse, yay! Comfort Vaporesse is basically an ironing water which aids ironing, prevents your iron getting clogged up with limescale and helps fragrance your clothes because ...
...nicely his clothes smelt! Comfort Vaporesse is definitely a product which has made my ironing and nicer and much more pleasant experience that it has ever been! The nice smell quickly surrounds you as your iron releases the fragranced water as steam, and it left all of my clothes lightly fragranced and very soft too. The easy pour spout prevents spillages when putting the water into the iron, and the clear bottle allows you to keep an eye on how ... Read review

Advantages: Light and easily maneouverable
Disadvantages: Some small niggles

Its the old story. When my trusty iron of five years faithful service finally packed in, it was time to buy a new one. Loathe to spend to much of my precious weekend and hard earned dosh trawling through the shops, I headed straight to my local Co-op supermarket as they usually stock a bit of kitchenware. ~~ THE BASICS Price: around £13.99 . Appearance: mine is mid blue and white, quite large in size and nice and shiny and new! Comes well packaged ...
...instruction booklet in a variety of languages. ~~ CAN IT DO THE JOB? My previous iron finally pakced in when little pieces of plastic holding the water tank became wedged in the side of the tank. This caused the tank to expand slightly, and as aresult, it leaked. This shorted the fuse (13 amp), and as aresult, my fridge,kettle and radio also went off. When I removed the stray pieces of plastic, the problem seemed solved, but I increasingly found ... Read review

Breville IR29 Steam Iron The Breville IR29 Steam Iron is a basic but good quality iron, it is the only Breville product I own and I must say I am impressed! It cost £14.99 from JTF Warehouse about fourteen months ago and so far I've had no problems with it. The main reason that I bought this iron was that it is pink, sad I know but I love all things pink! Coinsidentally one of my friends bought the exact same iron for the exact same reason so I'm ...
...out and buy the same or the nearest model Breville iron again. For £14.99 it can't be faulted as this is a good performing reliable iron with enough features to cater for the needs of most households, and if you like pink then the colour is an added bonus!! ... Read review
