Product Information

Plus the carefully designed shape and vents provide even better steam distribution for faster crease removal.

the Philips Perfectcare Elite GC9630 is a little light but glides well on all fabrics and has a comfortable handle. The footprint of the iron is quite large and it doesn’t fit on my steam generator ironing board, but bigger steam generator ironing boards are available. With OptimalTEMP technology, you can iron everything from jeans to silk with one temperature setting. And when you do want to refill, the tank detaches easily with a large opening so that you can comfortably fill the tank from the tap.The advanced smart control processor inside the iron replaces the traditional temperature dial and maintains a constant, reliable setting that is safe on all ironable fabrics.

I have not tested the "no burn' theory, but since the heat comes from steam within the iron, not directly from the iron plate, you should be able to leave it unattended on a garment without it every burning.The Philips PerfectCare Elite GC9630/20 Steam Generator Iron is a great way to look after your clothes. Hold iron over the sink and activate CALC CLEAN – this varies by model (see images for different types).

The iron can sit on the unit while being used and there is a small clip to lock it in place if required.

I would recommend this if you are a dressmaker, or have seriously lots of ironing to do, as it is expensive. Brilliant for all fabrics and easy to use, it glides over all garments and the tip is great for tricky details when dressmaking.
