what is the best iron then oh iron connoisseurs of hukd?

For people buying - I've owned this for a couple of years and although Bosch stuff is great, this is very poorly designed. The filling of the iron is a total nightmare and water goes all over the place as the hole is tiny and air gets trapped. When it's full I also find there is a lot of excess water that comes out of the bottom that isn't generated into steam. £24.99 may seem like good value but it could end up driving you crazy!!!

I've just checked the newer model and can see they've totally redesigned the filling spout....

Hot deal anyway. But I will hold.

No problem - I thought I may have been harsh, but then read on Amazon that many people have exactly the same issues and it's a common fault. An hours ironing needs about 4 fills and each time is a nightmare. I'm looking for a new iron, but it's hard to get motivated about buying an iron!!!

my bosch iron was a nightmare - worked well for a few months and then just started leaking limescale and other bits - tried everything to clean it but didn't succeed, water was leaking out the bottom - had to return after 6 months as just so fed up - shame as I love bosch products in general

Have had one of these irons for about 2 years, the soleplate has started to disintergrate.
Reviews suggest this is common I would not buy again.

I'm fussy with irons too.
it has to be perfect and 5/10 they are not.

£20 in Sainsburys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks just ordered now my second one... my last one last week after a good 3+ years of use after i accidently left it on for a afternoon.

This deal is flat in my opinion. The price is only going to de-crease, so why spend your money on a deal that just going to lose steam and burn a hole in your pocket.

Kill me. Now.

Ta.

I bought my Daughter a Bosch Steam generator I was lucky enough to get one for 60 quid which is about half what they usually sell for. I have 2 grandchildren and the Bosch is a real Time saver on the ironing and make it a lot easier.

Dude, what are you doing?
My 'Keel You' means Ninja death and stuff.
Not 'Ta'

I 'Keel U' again with vengeance.
And stay down.

Sweet.

Picked this model up in Sainsburys today @£20. They also had some other electrical offers which seemed good, like a Kenwood Kmix.

bought this a couple of weeks ago - quite impressed for the price http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shop/gb/groceries/laundry---utility/xmorphy-richards-300257-steam-breeze-iron-2600w-plm-wht miles better than my bosch one

For irons I never veer far from Philips or Morphy Richards.

No point in buying a cheap one cos they cut far too many corners

He has ironed the odd shirt for himself, they have 2 children and the amount of washing ironing is daunting, the steam generator really makes a difference. I am supposed to be at their house this morning to help him fix the floor threshold in the bathroom, phoned a few minutes ago and the lazy git is still in bed.

Would recommend too

is it auto shutt off
