Guide to Irons

Kinds of Irons include the following:

Dry iron

• The dry iron is the traditional type of iron; it is simply plugged into a wall socket and the temperature is adjusted to suit the ironing requirements.
• It has simple operating features and does not require water to work.

• The steam iron uses water to produce steam to make creases disappear faster.
• A small amount of steam is applied on the clothes while flattening them with the hot iron.
• Compared to the dry iron, the steam iron produces better results.

• The steam/spray iron has a small water spray housed in front of the iron.
• It allows the person to spray or ad moisture to the clothes when necessary, making it easier to press bone dry clothes.

• The steam/spray/shot iron releases a blast of steam through the metal plate, directly to the fabric.
• It is ideal for ironing certain fabrics such as denim.

• The steam generator iron allows a constant flow of high-pressure steam for application.
• It offers the best results in the fastest time.

Metal: Choose an iron that has a stainless steel plate for a smoother glide. Stainless steel also allows better heat distribution.  

Anti-scale: Look for a (wet) iron that has an automatic water filtration system to prevent the buildup of limescale inside the iron.
