About this product
Say hello to stress-free ironing with the Russell Hobbs Colour Control Pro Ultra Steam Iron. Its clever digital colour display takes the guesswork out of fabric care, changing from blue for delicate synthetics through to red for tough denim, so you'll always know when you've hit the perfect temperature. Powered by 2800 watts, this iron is ready to tackle your laundry in under 30 seconds, letting you breeze through everything from silk blouses to cotton bedsheets with confidence.
The non-stick ceramic soleplate glides across fabrics while the powerful 195g per minute steam output tackles stubborn creases. A 380ml water tank lets you iron many items before refilling, and the anti-drip system prevents water marks. The vertical steam function freshens hanging clothes or curtains, and the self-clean and anti-scale systems maintain performance. Auto shut-off offers peace of mind, and at 1.38kg with a 3m cord, it's comfortable with great reach. Register online for a 3-year guarantee, ensuring this iron meets your laundry needs for years.

Customers Say
Lightweight iron with good steam and temperature control via color-coded lights. Long cord praised. Issues include dark water tank making level hard to see, occasional water spitting, and some heating inconsistencies.

Great temperature control
It’s good but the wire gets in the way a lot

Nice product
Impressive product. Happy with it.
Ironman, 45 - 54
Takes a bit of getting used to.
The iron is heavy with a very long cable. It takes a fair time to heat up but once you get used to how it switches between the heating temperatures and steam choices it is a good enough iron. I wouldn't buy it again though because of the length of cable and weight.

Great iron
I have upgraded to this one from the previous model (of which i had two) Its only drawback is i cannot see how much water is in it as the tank body is dark.
Jacqui59, 55 - 64
Not a good product
The glass on the side of the iron to refill Is black and there is no way you can check how much water is going in. Consequently it floods numerous times.
Mary, 65 or over
Good value for money
Bought this as a replacement for my iron which had stopped steaming properly. Used it for the first time today, the steam is variable enough, I like the simple temperature options and colour to show what’s selected. I’ve ironed a sheet in no time. It heated up quickly, the tank is more than ample for a decent sized batch of ironing. I do look at a lot of reviews before buying, and found a lot of helpful comments. Pleased with my purchase.

Heats up quickly
Very happy with this iron. I like the colour indicators which show when the iron has heated up to the right temperature setting. Not too heavy and steams and irons well.
