About this product
Meet the Russell Hobbs Colour Control Pro Steam Iron, your reliable partner for tackling everything from delicate silk blouses to stubborn denim jeans. What sets this 2400W iron apart is its clever digital colour display that changes from blue to red, showing you exactly when the temperature is spot-on for whatever fabric you're pressing. Ready in under 30 seconds from switching on, it delivers a powerful 45g per minute continuous steam and an impressive 185g per minute steam shot to blast through wrinkles on cotton, linen, synthetics and heavier materials with ease.
The non-stick ceramic soleplate glides smoothly across fabrics without snagging, while the variable steam function lets you adjust power to suit your ironing. The 380ml water tank means fewer refills, and the anti-drip system keeps garments spotless without water marks. The vertical steam function freshens curtains or hanging clothes, and the self-clean function ensures long-lasting performance. Weighing 1.3kg with a 2.5m power cord and auto shut-off for peace of mind, this iron includes a 3-year manufacturer's guarantee when registered online.

Customers Say
Lightweight iron with smooth gliding, effective steam, and easy-to-use color-coded temperature controls. Long cord and comfortable grip praised. Main issue: dark water tank makes water level hard to see.

Russell hobs pro steam iron
Russell hobs pro steam iron,lighter than my last iron cord a good length,holds a good bit of water,like the colour code for the heat selecto, so pleased at moment with it only used twice.

Good value solid iron
Excellent value and quality for the price. The right weight, glides well & a good level of steam which seems to last. The cable winds easily around the base when not in use. Only negative is that it’s difficult to see how much water is in the tank because of its dark colour & I’ve overfilled it. I can live with that & just careful now I know, I would still recommend it.

Performs well
I bought this iron recently and have been very pleased with its performance both with or without steam. I find it glides and removes wrinkles well, depending on the setting and am happy to recommend it.

I’m liking the look of it very much.
I am very happy with my new iron choosing a heat I want is simple and accurate, steaming is very successful with getting the creases out, I have arthritic hands but this iron is comfortable to hold and not too heavy.
