Iron recommendation please :-)

Jamberie I wouldn't be without my Laura star. It is my second one, the first one lasted around 10 years. We use it for ironing on delicate fabrics and steaming suits in between dry cleans. It is a LOT faster than a standard steam iron and that's important. I'm trembling thinking of the ironing once I'm back at work in a suit and shirt and the boys are in school. It would be horrific without my steam station.

Oh yes. ..I should have looked into Laura Star... I'm a bit impatient and bought a Tefal pressure steam for $179 which was a great deal. .... I've ironed three things so far and it is amazing!

[beyondbeeton]

That sounds like a great deal Jamberie!

Just bought a Phillips steam station this month. Doesn't even have a temp dial - it automatically varies the temp depending on the fabric you are ironing. Was very helpful getting through the 5 suitcases of clothes we had brought home the week before.

I just really can't believe how much time these things save! !!
I'm about to pick up an extra day at work and bought this to save a little bit of precious family time... so far (in the three hours I've had it), it's worth every cent

What's an iron?

I don't associate much with mine either Gert but I did give DD2 a Russell Hobbs steam iron a few years back.  I got sick of doing her ironing and thought it was time she started doing it herself    This iron does make much lighter work of such a boring, endless job.

I son't like the sound of it so I won't be buying one.

I don't know when the last time I ironed was.... hence buying a toy to make it more interesting
Not as interesting as an iPad though.
