Tefal Ultimate Pure Steam Iron, 3100W, 260g/min Steam Boost, 350ml Water Tank, 3m Cord, Non-Stick Durilium Soleplate, Anti Scale, Anti-drip, Black and Rose Gold FV9845G0

This is a fab iron glides effortlessly over fabrics whether it's jeans or a cotton t shirt Well balanced I prefer to iron on eco setting Only complaint rather short power cord Just had to reposition where I iron Excellent steam quality Yes it's not the cheapest but well worth the extra

Best iron we've ever had, long anti-tangling cable, quick to heat-up, smooth runner, no steam or water leaks, comfortable to use, big water reservoir. The price/quality ratio is awesome.

Good smooth ironing, but water leaks.

Great iron (so my wife tells me) heats up really quickly. Steam is great and booster is very useful

Everything we need in an iron. It's big and bulky, but it cuts through the ironing with ease. Highly recommended!At the same time, we also purchased a branded 124 x 45 cm ironing board to accommodate the size of the iron and it all works like a dream.

I just used it twice but so far I am very happy with it..It heats up very quickly and irons very well..I also has 20% off so I reccomand

Within 2 weeks of using this iron I had noticed it was staining my clothes particularly when using the steam boost button so I have stopped using this. You have to let the iron stand for a lot longer than when the light goes out otherwise it will dump water on your clothes when you start to iron.During normal use it does occasionally dump clean water which does evaporate.I bought this after owning another Tefal which lasted a good 6 years without any issues, well until it stopped working! I picked a high priced iron assuming it will be of even better quality and I stuck with Tefal since I had never experienced issues.To be clear, I have ALWAYS used straight tap water in my irons for the past 20 years.After 8 weeks of perseverance and throwing work shirts straight back in the laundry basket I decided to get in touch with Tefal Customer Service and I was deeply disappointed by their answers.This iron in particular boasts a calc filter, something I havent had before. With the first issues of staining clothes, I pulled this out to inspect (even though the calc clean light hadnt come on) it had a few deposits but nothing much.I have extracted these responses from Tefals email:"We only recommend that untreated tap water be used in all of our generators. ; if you know you live in a hard water area the untreated tap water can be mixed 50/50 with either distilled or demineralised water but there needs to be at least a 50% concentration of untreated tap water used. Do not use pure demineralised water, de-ionised water or rain water as these may damage the iron. These types of water contain organic waste, mineral elements that become concentrated when heated and cause spitting, brown staining, leaking or premature wear on your generator.The boiler must be rinsed out after every 10 uses or more frequently if your water is very hard.An iron can act a bit like a vacuum cleaner on clothes and suck up soap deposits from fabric. It's essential therefore that clothes are thoroughly rinsed before ironing. If these are not removed by washing they may appear later out of the soleplate in the form of small brown or white spots or streaks on your linen.Please see the video below on how to descale your iron .You need to descale your iron every after 10 uses"Had all these points been made clear at purchase I think a lot of people would be put off.I did respond and tell them that in over 20 years I had never had to conduct timely maintenance on my iron every 10 uses. This is ridiculous.Tefal responded with:Do not hesitate to let us know if you carried out the above procedure and still experience the fault so we can arrange for a collection and repair.Pictures attached. The ironing board showing weeks of dried deposits.Dont waste your money, there is no advanced technology in these expensive irons.Thoroughly disappointed !!

Very good iron, does the job.But, it is impossible to see the level of water in the iron. It is too difficult to see the level, then therefore it tends to over fills and spills
