Advantages: Large Output of Steam, Vertical Steam Shooting for ironing hanging curtains, self clean button, long lasting.
Disadvantages: Insulated Cable wear and tear.

...The Philips Azur Excel Plus 525 was heavily advertised across out TV screens at one time as the iron that could push steam vertically like no other iron had done before. The famous advert of a lady holding the iron to a hanging curtain and shooting vertical jets of steam at it, made me all the more eager to purchase this rather ‘vogue’ featured iron. The iron itself has a six steam setting and 3 buttons: one to squirt out water, one to give out more steam and one to give out stronger shots of vertical steam. It has an ergonomically designed handle which aids in the effortless ironing. The heat setting dial is labelled, unlike other irons, with the type of material it should be set at for example linen, cotton, wool, silk. The iron provides large volumes of steam and gives out more steam when the iron is horizontal and stops giving out... Read review

Advantages: Good steam power
Disadvantages: Noisy. Takes a while for steam to come through when refilled.

...This is an upper to middle of the range corded steam generator iron. It has all the standard functions you would expect with a modern iron and the steam jet is particularly powerful. It irons very well, I used to spend ages ironing until I bought one of these and a new board and now I get it done in half the time - it's amazing what a difference a decent iron makes! Overall the iron is sturdy and seems well made. The cord is a bit thick and can get twisted which is a minor irritation. One thing I would say is that it's very noisy! In fact, it scares the s*#t out of my dog! Also, it is quite a bulky and heavy object to shove away in a cupboard - nobody wants to look at the iron when they're not using it! To sum up - this thing reduced the time I spend ironing so it was definitely worth the £90! SPECIFICATION Power: 2200 watts... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: none

...I have recently purchased a new iron and it is the Tefal FV 8210 Aqua Turbo 210. The colour of the iron is blue. It is a typical steam iron. It has no removable tank so you have to fill it up very carefully with a jug which could be a disavantage but I have not found it a problem. The plus factor is it does not build up with limescale. The maximum wattage is 2400 .Also the iron is not cordless but it is very easy to use with a very easy to grip handle. Has it is a traditional steam iron the steam and spray comes out vertical. The cost of the iron is between £30-£40 pounds so it is best that you shop around. It is quite a large iron and it is not a travel iron only for home use.... Read review
