So far I can say that the iron has an excellent finishing performance and produces enough steam. I put almost never at full steam power, because at level two already comes enough steam. The sole glides easily through the fabric. What has struck me while ironing at the highest temperature sometimes runs a little water from the sole. However, the previously never bothered me, I iron anyway immediately hot over it and the water evaporates immediately. A cord of three meters in length provides sufficient space for movement. No annoying beep as with my previous model, if you do not move more than 30 seconds. The unit is great for the price. I am very satisfied and would buy it again. Incidentally, I use only distilled water, although there are now many devices that you can easily refill from the tap. If only reaches no lime with the water into the device, it can not calcify also guaranteed. Better safe than sorry :-)
