Great product does the job!
Great product. Rotating through heat settings at initial switch on soon becomes instinctive but a little strange initially. Auto switch off may be a useful function for some although I don’t leave it on unattended

Great Iron - auto turnoff
I really liked the auto turn off feature which gives peace of mind. A key requirement

Effective Steam Iron with Auto Switch-Off
I bought the Russell Hobbs 27280 Colour Control Pro Steam Iron online and I really like it. The auto switch-off feature gives peace of mind, and the heat control works well for different fabrics. The iron feels a bit heavy, but in a good way — that extra weight helps smooth out folds easily and gives a sturdy, confident feel in hand. The control panel is neat and easy to use, which makes adjusting settings simple and intuitive. One thing I noticed is that the steam/ moisture sprays quite heavily when using water, which can be a bit much at times. Overall, it’s a solid, reliable steam iron with effective performance and thoughtful features — just be mindful of the strong steam output.

Lovely iron
I bought this about 3 weeks ago and I must say I love it so light and love the beeps on it when you first switch it on then when it let's you know it's at its temperature. Great changing the temp with the colour codes to , I've got trouble with my shoulder and arthritis in my hands but this is so light and no strain on my joints best iron I have ever bought .

Best steam iron
Brought this about couple of weeks back & must say that it’s awesome. One of the best steam irons that gig could ever get. Just love it.
Santosh, 45 - 54, London
Looks great performs average
Took one back because despite using ironing water and the steamer being on, brown water came out despite only owning it a week and used minimal times. Replaced with another and it is doing exactly the same so seems to be a manufacturer issue.
