Need a New Iron

Haven't bought one in 10+ years,
What's new?
Any decent ones that are recommended?
Have garment steam cleaners replaced irons?

  • Have steam cleaners replaced irons?

    Maybe I'm missing something here, but one is for cleaning a floor, and the other is for getting wrinkle out of clothes?

    For the last forty years or more, irons have had a steam function, but it that doesn't clean anything.

  • I hate ironing so very rarely do it. Am interested in whether garment steamers are better/more efficient/are as effective/easier than ironing?

  • +1

    We bought this as it’s pretty high on the consumer recommendations, but also very cheap.

    Only use it every couple of weeks but has been going well for nearly 2 years

  • I think invest in winkle free shirts that you can hang wet on a hanger and then go straight into the wardrobe to wear after they are dry

    • Nice - this makes so much sense!

    or

    Both work well and no need to pay an over the roof price. 👍🏻 (Though that Russell Hobbs from the link above for 45 bucks seems to be good too… 👌🏻)

  • absolutely recommend garment steamers! im still using an old garment steamer i got for cheap. only problem is one water refill is equal to about 1 and a bit shirts so maybe get something with a larger tank
