Ironing using our powerful steam iron relaxes the fibres, thus taking out the most stubborn creases.
Ideal for light usage. For heavy usage, we would recommend one of our higher spec ironing boilers, such as the Snail 3-litre, the Snail 5-litre or the Magpie boiler- all of which boast a blow-down system which allows immediate refilling of water, without having to wait for the boiler to cool down.

Snail 2
Delighted it arrived very quickly, we did have an issue with the excessive steam. We phoned the company and returned it to them and they replaced the iron and everything has been perfect. I would recommend this company, excellent service!

Excellent service
Overall excellent service, I have ordered parts from them in the past, impressed by the company in the past and they have always been excellent quality. I have just purchased a new steam iron for one of my care homes and I will look forward to purchasing more in the future, excellent company.

Insufficient info on website
I would have liked to know – before purchase – that the ironing time on a full tank is only 60 at most and that one has to wait 20 mins for the boiler to cool down before refilling. In a large household with, occasionally, 10 beds worth of linen to be dealt with the only option for us was to keep a steam generator iron going at the same time to be able to get through the pile of ironing. Having said that, it works beautifully and is very good on linen.

Very pleased
Very pleased with my lovely iron and the service from the company. Fast efficient and helpful. I’ve wanted one of these irons for years first encountering them at college. Wonderful control flow of steam and separate steam from the iron heating element means steam even at lower temperatures for iron more delicate fabrics. No problem with hard to iron creased fabric either. A dream.

Absolutely fantastic product for dressmakers!!! If you sew at home and do not have space for industrial iron is the perfect product for you! I’m very happy with the purchase 🙂

Reasonable iron
Advantages over cheaper irons: Hold the steam button down and have constant steam as long as you want, without any downtime. Great results. Disadvantages: Iron is quite heavy. Only takes 1.2 litres of water so it needs filling often. Takes 20 minutes to heat up.
