Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Smooth out wrinkles quickly and easily with this 1500-watt iron. The unit features a professional stainless-steel soleplate for exceptional heat retention and gentle, effortless gliding, plus a pointed tip that works well for getting into pleats, between buttons, and along seams. Choose from a range of temperature settings to accommodate almost any type of fabric--intelligent electronic controls maintain and indicate the actual and selected temperature settings. In addition, the unit produces variable steam and a spray mist for ironing, or it can be used vertically to steam hanging garments or curtains. To ensure safe operation, the iron automatically shuts itself off if left unused in any position (sideways, flat, or upright) for more than seven minutes. Other highlights include an anti-calcium filter that prolongs the life of the iron, an anti-drip design so there's no need to worry about water spots, an ergonomic handle for a comfortable grip, lightweight construction, and a long power cord, which pivots 360 degrees for maximum maneuverability. The iron measures approximately 12 by 5 by 6 inches.

Product Description

Take smooth to a whole new level with the most powerful steam iron around. Vertically or horizontally, the professional stainless steel soleplate glides effortlessly over virtually any fabric, while intelligent electronic controls maintain and inform you of actual and selected temperatures. Advanced electronic technology automatically turns iron off from any position (sideways, flat or upright) after 7 minutes of inactivity for peace of mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Lightweight for arthritic hands, or not!, June 12, 2008

By	T. Aubuchon (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I love this iron! It has ton's of steam, with the plus side of strong, verticle (and horizontal) blasts of steam for just steaming items, over a foot away! Nice "large" filling cup for adding water, and it can use "tap" water, (an amazing perk for a long-time "distilled" water user like me for years!)

I really needed a "lightweight" iron with arthritis in my right hand and this one is perfect. I can iron for long stretches without pain or discomfort. I bought a large wonderful (Rowenta) iron, which was beautiful, but I couldn't use it due to the weight. It's amazing what a great job this "lightweight" can do up against it's "heavier" bigger, rivals!

It gets out wrinkles better than any other iron I have owned in over 40 years of ironing too. The digital readout of levels and readiness are a colorful light show treat too! The automatic shut off feature is a must too (with annoying "Senior" moment forgetfulness episodes!)
