About this product
Forget sorting your laundry by fabric type before ironing. The Tefal Smart Protect Plus Steam Iron uses Smart Temp Technology to automatically adjust heat and steam levels, safely ironing everything from denim to silk without changing settings. This 2800W iron heats up in 2 minutes, delivering 40g per minute of continuous steam and a 260g per minute steam boost that works through stubborn creases in tougher fabrics like cotton and linen.
The ceramic soleplate glides smoothly while the precision steam tip reaches collars, cuffs and buttonholes. Its 270ml water tank provides ample steaming time before refilling, and the anti-drip system keeps garments spotless. Variable steam control adjusts output for different fabrics, and the vertical steam function freshens hanging garments and curtains. Weighing 1.2kg with a 2m power cord, it features auto shut-off for safety, an anti-scale system for easy maintenance, and a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Customers Say
This lightweight Tefal iron auto-adjusts temperature for all fabrics, glides smoothly, and has strong steam output. Users praise ease of use and performance but note issues with short power cord and hard-to-see water tank.

Clever iron
Replaced my ild Tefal with this model. I was sceptical because it has too jeat settings. But, it is great. Its a clever iron that knows what temperature it needs to be. I am very pleased with it.

Small water tank
Good weight iron. Glides smoothly across your clothes removing creases easily however I do did I’m constantly having to refill the water tank - seems to be much smaller tank than my previous tefal iron. I’m only managing to steam press one / one and a half shirts before needing to top the water up again which is a little annoying. Other than that it’s a great iron.

Does the job
Good iron and heats up fast and steams well with no dripping onto clothes that I find happens with a few I have tried, a good range of heat settings to choose from, only downside with the colour I find it awkward to see the line to fill the water compartment up.

Great iron
I love this iron,the fact that you don’t have to change temperature for different fabrics is a real bonus

Cannot see water level clearly
Basically this iron seems to do everything we want from it. We also appreciate the 3m flex. However there is one problem- the plastic of the water container is such a dark colour that it’s almost impossible to see how much water is in it.

Great Iron
Good long lead. Irons well. Reservoir is dark as others have said.

Brilliant smart iron!
Very pleased with this iron. You don’t need to adjust the heat settings because it does this itself depending on what type of fabric you are ironing. It heats up very quickly too. It glides well and has good steam output. It does well at removing creases and I haven’t noticed it dripping water at all. Would highly recommend.

Good iron
This is a good iron by tefal for everyday use, it’s lightweight and glides easily across the fabric, steam is good and makes an easy job of ironing.

Fantastic product
I really enjoyed using this product because it was super light, & it’s a nice size to be able to hold & control comfortably. It glides along the clothes really smoothly without any problems. Highly recommendable product.

Poor quality
The iron sent to me spurts out water when steaming and it’s very difficult to see the level of water when refilling. Very disappointed and would not recommend buying.

Hi, Your appliance is designed to work with tap water. If you live in a hard water area, you can use up to 50% tap water and 50% distilled water, and it’s important to regularly use the self-clean function to prevent limescale build-up.
Please avoid water with additives or pure distilled/demineralised water, as this can cause damage or performance issues.
Hi Jac,
I can confirm this item has 2 functioning steam settings.

Hi, this iron is manufactured in France.
Hi Mad, we can confirm that this iron does not have a temperature dial. This appliance has a smart temperature technology soleplate, to ensures the optimum balance of heat and steam to iron any fabric safely.
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.
Thank you for using Q & A.
