We speak for anyone who’s ever used an iron on their clothing when we say that it isn’t the easiest and most pleasurable task in the world.

Especially when it can easily be avoided. Thanks to OptimalTEMP technology, we guarantee that this iron will never cause burns to any ironable fabric. You can even leave it resting face down on your clothes or ironing board. No burns, no shine. Guaranteed.

This extra steam is perfect for vertical steaming to refresh clothes and if you wish, curtains too.
