Advantages: Continuous steam, 2 minutes heat up, great steam output and great finish Disadvantages: cleaning required on a regular basis
I run a small ironing business and I have used many tefal irons in my time. I can honestly say that the GV8150 is the best yet. It give a great finish to clothes in half the time and is ideal for large or small loads. The steam output is great for all fabrics and the turbo boost of steam really helps with stubborn creases.
Another advantage is that it has continuous steam so you can carry on ironing even if you run out of water. This has come a long way from the lesser steam generators when you had to wait for the steam to settle before opening it to refill it. This was time consuming and quite dangerous for the ones who tried to speed the process up(a few minor scalds on my hands on occassions)
It also heats up in about two minutes so can be used for a couple of shirts without having to wait forever. It is durable, as so ...

Advantages: STILL A GREAT STEAM GENERATOR, GREAT FEATURES, GREAT FINISH IN HALF THE TIME Disadvantages: TOO EXPENSIVE FOR WHAT IS AN OLD MODEL IN NEW COLOURS

Decided to order it and wait with trepidation for the delivery(have to get the excitement where you can). Once it had arrived, end of the day as usual, I couldn't wait to try it out so I got some of my own ironing and got going(yes sucker for punishment, I know). All my previous experiences with new versions was always a treat as they always had something more to offer. I opened the box to unravel a very similar ...
This is my second steam generator iron and I thought my last one was good but the GV 8150 is excellent. It heats up in about 2 minutes, glides through the most stubborn creases and has a turbo boost button for really stubborn creases..
One of the advantages is that it has continuous steam so you can carry on ironing even if you run out of water, my old iron you had to wait again for it to heat up, also it sis relatively quiet compared to my old one. It has cut my ironing time in half and if you have a family it is well worth getting one, anyone thinking about getting this iron then don't hesitate, you won't be disapointed it a great addition to the family . ...
