Russell Hobbs 14991-56 Iron Autosteam (Kitchen)

Customer Review

After a year (at just the right moment, at the end of warranty!), My trusty Philips (which I had to pay about 30) makes the soul. I decided to turn towards this iron Russell Hobbs. Comparison.

Unquestionably, it is pretty, and seems reliable. He keeps upright and looks solid at the materials used (at least as much as my phillips).

But I find it a bit heavier its predecessor, and it slips a little worse. And fundamental point I find it less heated (2000W Yet, as much as the old one). So for once, I'm pretty disappointed. It is certainly nice, but me what I wanted was an iron, not a toy.

A friend gave me his SUPERGLISS calor 50 that satisfies me (slides and heats better, I think). This, I think, the next model that I would buy. Hoping it will not let me!
In short, I recommend.

Update 04/25/2013: 3 months ago, I use the iron CALOR SUPERGLISS 3825 (I bought on Amazon), and frankly, there's no pictures. Leger, practical and above all, HOT GOOD!
