Morphy Richards Speed Steam Steam Generator Iron Review

The Morphy Richards Speed Steam Steam Generator Iron is a fast and efficient product. It has a high performance in terms of output and pressure, with an impressive 120g per minute of instant steam and a 220g per minute boost for those more challenging creases on even tougher fabrics. We particularly like how it's capable of penetrating multiple layers of fabric, meaning your total time spent ironing can be significantly reduced.

The iron's soleplate (underneath) is made from a ceramic material. It's one of the best materials to use for irons as it's simultaneously non-stick, and also allows for a smooth glide across fabric. The iron's handle has been designed to provide a comfortable grip. There's also an emphasis on safety, with a safety mechanism which locks the iron to its base, and automatic switch off it it's left idle for too long.
