Mmmmmmmm, so easy to use too :smile:

I googled "steamy gif" but the results weren't suitable for the thread so I'll leave it at...

Voted hot. :laughing:

I've just read a review on this signed ' the queen ' she's even posted a pic of herself holding this very same iron :laughing:

This has gone up to £109 on Tesco website but still £60 from third party reseller on Amazon. It seems the output rate of steam is good but that the size of the water tank is about half the size of most steam generator irons. Also the lack of seeing how much water is left is a negative is as well.

Any thoughts from anyone who has tried theirs out? Worth getting at £60? thanks

Good price, but find it hard to justify for 1 pair of jeans a fortnight.

Thanks OP just ordered

Thanks; just bought.

we only buy Tefal irons and have a perfectly good one (Pd catalytic base, no less) but, as my flatmate Tommy Lamb used to say (about bleach), "you can never have enough".

To be honest, it got to the stage where we had 4 perfectly functional Tefal irons in a cupboard. Now it will just be 2.

Paid with vouchers, so it only cost 50p in reality.

This seems a very good price. For anyone who would like a traditional steam iron (also the Tefal brand), I just posted a 'Which?' best buy:
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/5-62-price-drop-tefal-ultimate-anti-calc-steam-iron-fv9630-50-63-amazon-2420005

It's just dropped in price by £5.62 (to £50.63) at Amazon.

Btw, there are some extreme ironing shots in this thread.

I bought this Iron for £50 over xmas and it's a really good iron but it runs out of water pretty quickly which can't be refilled till its cooled down. I get through about 8-10 shirts before it runs out.

Thanku so much, ordered n collect 2moz aft.

here's me testing it on the way back from tesco

Heat from me too :smiley:.

heat from me. really needed an iron, picked one up this morning. thanks

Have some steamy heat! I've wanted a steam generator iron for a while and never wanted to pay the price!

Wheres elvis these days? :smiley:

One more :smiley: obviously the irons not sswitched on! :wink:

mmmmmmacccyyyyyy just picked mine up.heres me doing my ironing :wink:

We've had this iron for around a year. It's pretty good to be fair.

I've got a ceramic base iron and it seems to do the job fine. What benefit would I see using this (apart from being 3 times the size)?

this is going to be hot
steaming hot.

Just ordered it - thanks OP. :smiley:

Hope they don't cancel my order (like a few previous ones!).

Just bought this iron.
Didn't even know I needed an iron.
Got an iron already.
But this one's purple!
Nice.
HUKD strikes again :smile:

Thank op. Was looking to buy one a couple a days ago. Perfect timing :smile:

Used to buy Tefal steam generators all the time, they would last about 14 months and then clog up with scale so bad they were useless, but the price kept us going back This was with keeping up with changing the descale filter every couple of months, admittedly we do live in a hard water area. These are next to impossible to descale properly, all you end up with is scale marks all over your clothes, even after running several tanks of water through it after descaling.

Ended up with a Swan, little more money but its still going strong after 18 months so fingers crossed.

One tip, if the sole plate stops gliding as it should, after about three months use, mer car polish applied when its cold puts the glide back.

Well I'll be coming back to this thread and saying...does my hair look big in this? :laughing:

:laughing:<3

​Thanks and have fun with yours lol :man:

<3:laughing:

Finally managed to buy a tesco hotukdeal before it disappeared from my basket! Thanks

I'm well aware! You're always offline :disappointed::laughing:

Its not you. Its me. <3

Thanks, Maccy - a great back up for when the straighteners break down on me. :smile:

You're using more Skype emoji's here, than you are with me :disappointed:

:laughing:

oh bless you, don't worry, if I do come across a continuous fill, you'll be the first to know :laughing:

It's not you. It's me. I've always said that if it's anything less than...



It's cold. Apologies, maccy. But that's just how it is :disappointed:

I hope so daffers <3

​what I need is the hubby to do the ironing but he's so pedantic about the creases all I can see is the numbers on my electricity meter going higher as he takes so long! it's more cost effective for me to do the ironing lol.

so maccy if you come across a continuous fill one do put the deal up please mine is on its last legs.

Not today, tomorrow maybe

Thankyou so much for leaving this comment, tefal are absolutely the best iron to get (sad that I know this!) looking to buy my son one and found your tip for tesco' deal so have just bought one. Discount code didn't work though - still a great price thanks!

:laughing:

I was just saying earlier in JHT...I think I've still got chocolate from last year...probably hidden in a safe place :laughing:

Bought this for £50 last year, it's brilliant.

All good here thank you maccy, hope you have a great easter in chocolate heaven :smile:

Hot find maccy, hope your well, nice to see you, heat added :smiley:

this is also the instore price until the 29th, I saw it today in Linwood store

Thank you

I think you need 2 of these... :laughing:

Thank you for the feedback though and it's much appreciated, everyone has different needs, pleased you like it while it has enough water in though :smile:

​just one weekend of ironing is about 1.5 litres of water for me. family of 6 though so I'm guessing that's normal plus I life to hold the button down all the time when I'm ironing!

great price but not continuous fill so you have to wait for it to cool down before you can refill it if you need to do more ironing. mines a 1 litre and I end up refilling so this wouldn't do me at all.

Thought you had a lisp for a min then Andrew...then I saw the image :laughing:

Well that's scary...

:laughing:

Just found daffers...
