the positives:
- The price for product quality
- The sole that slides alone on the machine, which gives a pleasant feeling during ironing
- Fast heat
- Filling the reservoir
- The anticalculus manifold at the rear of the iron that allows the use of tap water
- The anti-drip system
- Pressing the function that makes ironing thick fabrics very easy, no need to return the legs of jeans trousers, thick cotton tablecloths ... one pass enough
- Cord length
- The base iron to ask: very stable
- Good ergonomics
- Quality of ironing
negative points:
- The weight at first surprised, I have the "Calor FV5340C1" and I know the difference between the two
- The position of the "dry" button I prefer under the handle: less fatigue when using continuous
- The absence of a small container to pour water: I am not a follower of plastic and is bt dangerous to iron under the same unplugged tap to fill the tank.
results for some tests:
- Thick denim pants fabric: 9/10 = one pass simply by leg, no need to return to have a result without folds or wrinkles, ironing trousers is done very quickly, without fatigue
- Cotton shirt for the office: 9/10: one pass forgotten wrinkles, folds ... the sole gliding alone
- Clothes mixed fabrics: 9/10 = sole does not catch, glides easily
- Tablecloths, sheets: no longer a chore: 8/10
Conclusion: An adopted iron, but the Calor brand is a trusted brand in this type of article or ergonomic is taken into account.
