Russell Hobbs Quiet Super Steam Pro Iron Review

The Russell Hobbs Quiet Super Steam Pro Iron is a very powerful piece of equipment capable of smoothing out wrinkles and creases more often than not in only one stroke. Its high steam output/pressure allows you to breeze through piles of washing very quickly indeed. It's definitely a top of the range product. Its best feature is its automatic temperature adjustment, allowing you to iron silk straight after denim jeans (for example) without having to alter the settings.

The iron has a ceramic soleplate. Ceramic is both scratch resistant and also allows for a smooth glide. Our favourite feature is the low noise level. It's up to 20% quieter when compared to the previous model, and allows you to listen to the TV whilst ironing. The iron is also capable of operating vertically to iron out creases and wrinkles in curtains, suits, bed covers, etc.
