Consumer review (johnlewis.com)

Good product, easy to use

 

At first a little daunted by the size of the steam generator but once I used this I wouldn't replace with a normal iron. Ironing is so much easier!

Excellent!

 

I bought the iron to replace a similar model which stopped working after 6 years, in an area with hard water. The new iron so far has been excellent. There is some noise when the water is heating but it is still much quieter than my previous iron. I do...

Great product

 

Very good product. Easy to use and set up. Bit expensive but worth it. Like the fact that you can lay the iron flat on the ironing board, without scorching the board. Very large water reservoir which means that you can tackle a pile of ironing without...

So much better than I expected

 

I'd used good quality steam irons for decades but decided to upgrade to a steam generator as I'd heard lots of positive reports from people. This particular model had a number of attractions (including the design and colour) but it is undeniably...

Top of the line iron, with bottom of the line parts! This one didn't even make it to its first year anniversary! Normally I wouldn't bother with reviews, although I don't want someone making the same mistake I did! When it worked, it wasn't a bad iron,...

Disappointing

 

hour each way to my nearest authorised repairer only to find out the cost would be more than the iron and at my expense (it would not be covered). I did consider buying another one (and putting its short life span down to an unfortunate one off,...

Huge disappointment out of the box!

 

Never been so disappointed at a brand new product specially to one to be the best in the market and awards winner! We bought it to replace a previous model GC7635 which after 2 years gave up by the now popular Eco+Power buttons of death. Out of the box...

Best iron I've ever had

 

Philips PerfectCare Elite Silence 290 Gram Steam Station GC9642/60 This thing is amazing. I've never had a steam generator iron before, but this one makes ironing extremely easy. I used to hate ironing before I got this thing. Got it at David Jones on...
