I will not compare this product to other steam power plants as this is my first. By cons I can say that I am absolutely delighted and, waw, what a change from an iron classic! At the opening of the carton, first rapture aesthetics. The iron and the base are very nice. Sober, white and beige, classic, I love. But turn to the most important arguments! Starting time: 2mn => fine. One branch, the time to organize and ironing clothes iron is ready for use. Silent technology: everything is relative, this plant is not 100% silent. She gets a little heard during the heating time, but nothing really sound or disturbing. I suppose this detail is emphasized in the description because the other plants are generally noisier? In short, in any case I find nickel that side. No setting: I was skeptical (and a little frightened) at the prospect of trying ironing a silk scarf. Well he survived! This is true, no adjustment necessary, the plant returns perfectly any type of tissue without damaging it. Regarding handling, no complaints. Iron is light, rather small, in short it like a conventional classical iron and ironing is faster. One can choose to stream all steam iron or just on the tip for extra ironing. I found it very convenient. I have not yet tested the "Vertical Steaming" referred to in the description, but given the quality of the plant, I do not have many doubts. In short, all that to say that I recommend! 349.99 is a sacred amount to invest, but it is true that ironing becomes (almost) a pleasure with such a tool. :)
