Thank you 'Daughter' [planning ahead and making sure she's not in distress], for your question about choosing a steam iron.
First, absolutely super to hear you actually want to iron your own clothes whilst you're at Uni [old fashioned concept I know, but sometimes necessary] - and not just save them up for your mum's visit or reading week.
To answer your question [and believe me, having 4 teenagers, I've motored through a few irons on extreme ironing days], the type of steam iron with the water tank in the separate base are easily the best. They're usually a bit more expensive but well worth it. [Why not surprise your parents and ask for one for your birthday?] Try this Morphy Richards steam iron - I paid around £69 from Comet a few months ago and it's still going strong. And you must all know how I like multi-tasking - you get a Full Steam Facial every time !!
- Quick to heat up.
- No arm-ache. The iron is lightweight [cos the water is in the base of course].
- Super steaming saves time as the steam eases out difficult areas without extreme ironing.
- Super steam means you don't have to press on or repress the garment a billion times.
- Super steam means you can glide over the garment with super-speed - more time in the pub.
- Super steam means you can steam garment on the hanger - no ironing board necessary.
- Super steam means you get a facial at the same time [multi-tasking the way I like it]
