Smart laundry tool with lots of functions.
Great product with its temperature control for each product. It glides over materials without problems easing out creases leaving a smooth surface from silks to denim. It has plenty of steam when required and is light and easily manageable with a great length of cable

Best iron I have ever had
I wasn't sure about spending that much on an iron but worth every penny for me. I just need to go over clothes and bedding once and it's done. Cut ironically time by half. Only niggle is the cord the is really short and I have to have an extension lead

Not grate as l thought it would be.
I regret buying this iron. Each time I’m using it the water comes out. I’ve abandoned it only used not up to ten times. Can l still return it for an exchange?

Easy ironing
Have had this iron for a over a year now as my previous 'heavy weight' died. It's lightweight which is a bonus, and does a great job on all types of materials. There is a removable cap at the back which collects the excess calcium which is brilliant, just rinse and screw back in, surprising how much is collected in there, ideal for hard water areas. Would like a bigger water tank, as have to refill frequently.

Irons well, but...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was expecting a good steam iron and it certainly produces a lot of steam. The downside of this is it is impossible to see the water tank through the purple plastic. I had to keep a torch next to me as I ironed so I could see the water level. The heat setting wheel is also not clear and partially hidden by the handle. Very poor design features. My next grouse is the set of instructions that comes with it is impossible to decipher. I had to take to Google to find out, in English, how to clean this machine, even then it is not entirely clear. At the price it will do for now but will be looking for something else in the near future.

Not impressed based on description

Hello Mad.
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Tefal FV6872G0 Smart Protect Plus Steam Iron:
This iron does not have a temperature dial. It has just the one single setting which allows you to go from denim to silk without setting.
