How I began to spend less time ironing: an overview of the modern iron

I had an outdated model of iron, and it took a long time to iron bed linens and shirts. In one place they had to drive them for a very long time, which was very exhausting, and the steam from the iron raised the temperature in the apartment. And after a year of torment, I decided to change my assistant to a more modern model.

How to choose an iron

I went to the nearest store to buy it, it was M-Video. When choosing an iron, I was guided by the following characteristics:

· Manufacturer country. Many products are made in China, and they do not have a long service life. And so I was looking for another manufacturer and settled on Hungary.

· Adaptation to hard water. The ability to use tap water was important to me.

· Weight. I iron often, and therefore the weight of the iron is important, the optimal parameter, in my opinion, is 1.5 kilograms. My iron weighs 1.2 kg.

· Cord length. There are few outlets in my house, it is important that the cord is long and not kinked.

· Coverage. I have a small child and she scratched the old surface of the iron, so I was looking for a stable surface.

The color of the iron was not important for me, white and dark models were presented in M-Video, I bought a second one.

Advice! When choosing an iron, it is important to pay attention to the power of steam supply, in this model it is 30 g / min. The steam boost is 150 g. Also important is the automatic shutdown function, which will protect against fire if you forget to turn off the iron.

Advantages and disadvantages identified during use.

I did not find any drawbacks in using the iron. In my opinion, the main advantages are:

· Long-term operation;

· Rubberized handle, due to his hands do not sweat;

· A sharp nose that strokes all corners;

· The presence of a measuring glass for water;

· Protected cord from kinking.

The cost of a Braun TexStyle 5 iron was on average 6,000 rubles, but I got it for 4,000, there was a promotion in the store. I am very pleased with the purchase and recommend the equipment from this manufacturer to everyone. Write in the comments which irons you use and share your impression of the Braun brand.
