Eliminates any skepticism

The Philips GC4918 / 30 Azur Perfect Care steam iron ironed these objections, however, just as quickly settled as the wrinkles in his shirt. Because the one-Heat-fits-all "temperature control actually works - in cotton shirts and jeans, in wool and cashmere sweaters and even Silk everything goes slightly out of hand with a very good result and without damage would be visible in the more sensitive materials Toll. ! Almost makes ironing fun now.

When I say slight of hand, lacks the terrible irony, because of the amazing sliding the sole contrasts with the equally amazing weight of the iron. This naturally helps when ironing, but can tire your arms after some time, eventually you have to raise the iron so often. Useful when working on the other hand is the 2,50m long cable and the big water hole. Very commendable is the Anti-Calc.

2,800 watts are at first glance not very energy efficient. Since it ultimately saves time but by the good results and you just can not iron without heat, objections are irrelevant here. The same applies to the relatively high water consumption - that's not a real cost factor. The increase in humidity (in winter so possibly a good thing) is very limited.

Not I can especially make friends with the purple-white design that focused obviously on a female audience. But iron is not a design object that you issue.

Overall, Philips is doing so very, very good. Better might be just an iron when it hinbekäme the same result with a significantly lower weight - there's possibly physical limits. Anyway, I'm very satisfied.

Against this background I see the price also justified. I will pay not for plastic and metal, but for the utility. And if I reckon together what I save on time and frustration by the faster and better ironing, then the Philips is almost, almost a bargain.
