Great Iron
This iron is so easy to use. The different coloured lights for the different temperatures are really useful and stop the iron being used on a setting to high for the fabric being ironed. It is easy to fill with water and is good at removing creases on the steam setting. Very happy with it.

Light and easy to use
I bought this recently to replace an old iron. Very pleased, it irons well and is nice and light. Several heat options for delicate to cotton items. Works well with good shot of steam. Only negative is that it is difficult to see the water level in the body of the iron.

Poor temperature control
After first using this iron, I realised I’d made a mistake in buying it. It was a quick purchase as my old iron had given up the ghost. I didn’t really look at it in detail and notice there wasn’t a temperature dial, just pre-set buttons. This gives inflexibility in managing the temperature. The hottest setting is too hot for many clothes, the next one down not hot enough and results in dripping water rather than steam. A limited number of pre-set temperatures rather than a dial is a major design flaw, I won’t be buying one like this again.

Colour control very helpful
Bought the Russell Hobbs Iron when the previous ceased operation two weeks ago. Really pleased to date, and the colour coding will be helpful when I master the sequence.

Quality Iron that does not disappoint
This is the second Russel Hobbs colour coded iron, as you have deduced I was happy with the first model and this "upgrade is no exception. The colour codeing of temperatures is perfect for the likes of me. The iron is well made but light with the toggling lead cable a nice convenient innovation. An excellent product at a very good price.
laid back grafter
Light to handel and good at its job
Good iron for the price
