As you unpack the first impression was once more negative: While the iron is very well made, but it is also very difficult (1.5 kg with empty water tank). When ironing, however, it turned out that this is not such a big problem, as I would have expected. This complaint can therefore be neglected, as it is hardly noticeable when ironing. What I've been looking forward only to me a thorn but is now in the eye: the cable is very long. What I had considered an advantage, but it bothers me when ironing, because the cable is constantly hanging somewhere. While you got included an attachment; depending on where you ironed out, the cable already disturbs some.
The steam lever bothers me when ironing not (unlike other reviews). I have no problem with the fact that the lever under the handle (I'll never accidentally it, but also have relatively small hands).
Super I also think that you can operate the device with normal tap water. I use the iron now for nearly four weeks and it runs with tap water properly (a Entkalkerfunktion is installed). While it consumes quite a lot of water, but I did not want to perform a real negative point.
And now the most important thing: the iron convinced me to 99% in the practical test! What I had previously doubted strongly, actually works! With a setting you get thick winter sweater as easily ironed how thin office shirts and blouses. I had only one blouse, when I have relatively long time and I really think to myself that it's up to the material. All other things, no matter how sensitive or thick, can be quasi idotensicher "with this iron smooth. Okay, the price is admittedly pretty high. I hope that the unit for many years without any problems giving good service, because otherwise I would say that also a more favorable iron with several stages that enough can conjure up even this unit -. You have to own ironing ;-) When the unit stops, however (and I'll adjust the review as soon as it should go broke), then I recommend the Iron definitely continue despite the price!
Summary:
+ Quick and easy - "idiot-proof"
+ Operation with normal tap water
+ A setting for thick sweaters and slim shirts alike
- Cable interferes sometimes
- Relatively expensive
I gladly forgive 4 stars and hope that my iron will remain for a long time!
Supplement from June 2014:
I raise to 5 stars because I very quickly get the laundry done now with the iron. Even the long cable is now not care and no longer interferes. I just needed maybe some practice, but now I bow in record time (so much faster than with other iron!) And would not easily give up the iron! After some practice, you can save time definitely. And there are more beautiful things than iron, is to me worth the 5 stars.
