Dream Machine
By The Iron-ing LadyVerified Reviewer from Belfast, N. Ireland on 7/1/2008

Never thought I would enjoy ironing but this product makes it so quick and easy even shirts don't bother me now. Just a little tip - if your going somewhere special don't do your hair first and then iron what your wearing as the amount of steam generated plays havoc with your hairstyle. (Or maybe only a mad Irish woman like me would do something so daft!)

lightwieght handset, easy to use but if you aren't careful you can iron in creases. Saves time when ironing. steam flex ok but would like it to have been longer. The locking feature to lock the handset to the base for movement is very useful. Overall assessment very good

Bottom Line:

This iron is a replacement for another steam generator iron that I had which broke. Once you have used a steam generator there is no going back to the slow old days of a normal iron. This iron is reasonably quick to heat up, but once up and running blasts through ironing very fast. The water tank lasts through a great pile of ironing and the safety clip is a nice touch keeping the iron locked onto the base for carrying and storage.

It seemeed like a lot of money for an iron, but after recommendations from family, reading some reviews on the web and finding this one heavily reduced in price I decided to take the plunge. It is just as good as I had hoped. It makes ironing significantly easier and quicker - and who could say no to that!

Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I used to hate ironing because it took so long! I had a steam generator iron from another leading iron manufacturer and wasn't at all impressed. The clothes were always damp after ironing and the results were poor.

Since having this iron, my ironing time has been cut dramatically, the clothes are dry and the results excellent! Plus, my ironing board isn't soaking when I've finished!

I never thought I would actually enjoy ironing - until now!

For the busy housewife or professional rest assured that with the Tefal Express you will dramatically cut down your ironing time - and I mean dramatically!

Although expensive it really is money well spent.

I've had my iron for a couple of years now and love it (hate ironing but love the iron) it is such a big time saver - ironing goes so much quicker which makes the job you hate a lot easier to do. My mum used it at my house and loved it so I bought her one for christmas - she was delighted and keeps calling me saying how brilliant it is - I think it is a must have household item - worth every penny

This is the second Tefal steam generator we have owned - I dropped the first one and broke it. It does an excellent job and given the amount of ironing we get through, a major plus is the fact that you can top up the water tank without turning off the iron. It gets up to temperature very quickly and is a pleasure to use - if it's possible to say that about an iron! [...]
