There is a self-cleaning function in steam irons, but we can also clean them ourselves by wiping the soleplate with a paper towel. The spray function delivers a fine fog that soaks the clothes, making it simpler to iron out wrinkles. The iron can be used to steam vertically with enough capacity to remove wrinkles and refresh curtains or hanging garments like suits or silk dresses. The vertical steam capacity of this iron gives you a chance to refresh garments directly on the hanger and remove creases from curtains as they hang. There is no need for a pressing board.

The auto steam control function removes the stress of choosing the amount of steam you need. Simply select the temperature for the clothes you are ironing and off you go. Besides this, you can clean the soleplate of steam iron by merely heating the iron and rubbing its soleplate on a dry or wet piece of cloth.The automatic turn-off feature turns off the appliance when it’s left unattended. If it is left on its heel rest, it will turn off in 8 minutes. When it is left on the soleplate, it just takes 30 seconds to turn off. The steam boost feature can be used for vertical steaming and for dealing with the most intense of wrinkles and creases. The soleplate is large and smooth, and there’s even a texture brush attachment to remove any debris before ironing. Our only slight criticisms are that there’s no built-in de-calc facility – so, depending on how hard your water is, you’ll need to buy and use a descaler from time to time – and the iron is heavier than many others.
