Whether they acquire a steam generator iron, is almost a landmark decision because you usually also a much more stable, ausladenderes board required (or even a special steam ironing) to safely leave such a station and be able to serve. In this TEFAL-Dampfbügelstation "Effectis" the overall dimensions are reduced so that the handling (eg raus and clean balancing of cabinets) and the accommodation is easier, and the station requires a lower bearing surface, for staying on a board. Nevertheless, this station needs a very stable and secure storage, because the total weight is quite significant when fully filled 1.5 liter tank. There are now so many steam irons, which have a similar performance (5 bar, 120 g / min steam), and it is also the power that one by my various experiences with steam ironing systems, starting, so need a Philips-station in the household. When Tefal Effectis the power is in any case properly, especially as regards items of laundry which are to be ironed down quickly and effectively, such as linen. All wrinkles are weggedampft, and to get to the laundry apace. More you do not need me an achievement. Well, I think the automatic shutdown - this creates security, because by the various interruptions and distractions in everyday life, we not only happened once that the iron remained on.
Some getting used to is the filling of the water tank - the "Plus" of compactness is mainly due to the solid obstruction of the water tank. Previously I had a model with removable tank. The "Effectis-" station can be refilled via the refill flap - if this proves to be unfavorable in the long run, I'm still not entirely conclusive.
Overall, however, a very powerful station that I enjoy at home.
