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 quick heat-up, smooth glide, effective steam, and easy-to-use colour-coded temperature controls. Water level visibility and short lead length are common minor issues.

Great features
This iron has some excellent features and heats up quickly. It is useful being able to gauge the heat settings by the coloured lights. It is a bit heavier than my previous iron but not unbearably so and does press the items really well.

Great steam iron
Bought this as a replacement for my old one. Much more lightweight and continuous steam. Heats up quickly. The water tank holds a good amount of water and there is no issues in seeing the level.

Good solid iron
Only used it once so far but is good. Bit lighter than I like. I like the colour coding of the heats, makes it easy to use and change.

Smooth iron
Really great iron. Only 4 stars because of the length of the lead. It’s a little short, otherwise would have been 5 stars!

Every day use iron.
I bought this iron around a month ago and have been pleasantly surprised with it. While it is quite a basic iron the heat settings are sufficient and super easy to use with the colour coding. Preheats quickly and has a good glide to it. The steam function is good and can be used to quickly go over stubborn or difficult to iron areas and remove wrinkles. The only downside is that the water reservoir levelis quite difficult to see see and can result in water dripping from the iron if overfilled.
