Perfect product
love it, a bit pricey but love it
Can't recommend enough!
Such a brilliant product from Phillips here. Faster ironing, no worries about burning any type of clothing. No need to iron on both sides, as 1 side is usually enough. You can iron any type of clothing, from day-to-day t-shirts and pants to dress suits and ladies' dresses.
Best iron out there!! Doesn’t burn clothing
Will never use another iron againThe best!!
Great product
Great product. Making a strange sound when pressing the steam button. Otherwise, works well.
So much better than the normal irons

Philips Steam Iron
This is one of my best buys . I love my iron and would definitely recommend it

This is the best iron out there…wife loves it, domestic help raves about it and even the kids says it makes ironing a pleasure

Best iron ever bought. Best quality. Iron in half the time of a normal steam iron
-
Amazing
Best iron quality I could find in South Africa!
-
The bestest steam generating iron
I thought the previous model was great. This one is even greater. Makes all ironing jobs a pleasure. Quick, efficient, faultless. Really truly the best.

Steam generator iron
Use it daily and very happy with my purchase
-
You will never iron any other way!
My first steam station (a Defy) recently broke after 26 months of very hard working. I could not find a Defy replacement & opted for the Phillips. It is just as nifty, powerful & a one swipe iron movement, to remove even creases from denims. This product is much lighter & does not leave you with a bit of an “exercised” arm the next day. It does steam at very high pressure which surprise some people. The room will become very hot inside, but baby, your ironing will not last long enough for you to overheat!

The Best
Tried them all. This is the best.
-
Great product. Big water storage is a plus though I would have liked to have a small cup to fill the water
-
This iron is fast, efficient and has proven to be impossible to burn clothes. It makes ironing pleasurable.
-
A good result
The steam is dramatic and my wife reports satisfaction. There is enough weight in the iron to help flatten creases, while the steam assists. The main negative is that continuous steam requires you to keep pressing the button. However, the button it is where you finger rests when holding the iron, so it is not too awkward to use. Satisfied.

I run a small guesthouse and find this saves time and does an excellent job of cotton bed linen. It is quite pricey though

Philips perfect care compact essential steam generator iron
this is the second steam generator iron I have purchased and I am certainly not disappointed. The first one has been used for many years and this one has certainly met my expectations. These irons are very much more robust than a standard steam iron which I have had to replace on an annual basis.
-
Excellent product. Makes ironing an easy job.
-
Best Steam iron
This is the 3rd steam station I have purchased. Ironing becomes an easy task with this steam station which automatically adjusts the temperature to whatever one is ironing. Definitely recommend!

Excellent Iron!
I love this iron. The additional space for water means I can iron for a long time without frequently needing to refill. Works well for ordinary flat ironing and steaming hanging clothes.
