Great stem iron, very pleased with it
Bella
Steam generator iron
Great steam but needs a clip to hold the iron securely in place for ease of lifting it out the cupboard
Iron, 45 - 54
Perfect 👌
I bought this to replace a Russel hobbs steamer iron almost the same, but it had a different plate which easily burnt. This one has a stainless steel plate and is much better and glide's through the ironing, steam boost is great.

Sandie
Bought this iron and I am over the moon with it, so easy to use and the pressure of the steam is great, it takes no time at all to heat to correct temperature and the iron glides over the cloths so easy. I would recommend this iron for all the above and for the price I paid excellent.
Sandie, 65 or over
Doesn’t lock
This iron is practically perfect in every way except the iron doesn’t lock on to the steam unit when carrying it to put away. It should lock into place and it doesn’t therefore I would not buy it again
Poyle, 65 or over
Disappointed
I bought this 1 month ago but had to return it as when using steam water coming out from plate staining clothes
Iron
Good for the price
Its a nice little iron if you don’t have a large amount of ironing to do,steam is a little weak and it sticks to certain materials even on low heat
Tmatthews

Hi Clare,
Russell Hobbs Series 1 Steam Generator Iron 24420
Having checked the manual it states: You may use the iron with tap-water, but if you live in a hard water area, you should use distilled water (not chemically descaled or softened water). If you buy distilled water, check that it’s suitable for use in irons.
Thanks for using Q&A.

Hi Frustrated J
Having checked the instructions for the Russell Hobbs Series 1 Steam Generator Iron 24420:
1. Set the temperature control to S or higher – otherwise the steam might condense on the soleplate,
giving you water instead of steam.
2. Squeeze the steam trigger to produce steam, release it to stop.
NOTE: When you first start your steam station and pull the trigger for steam ironing, there will be a
delay as your steam station pumps water from the reservoir to prime the system. This is normal
and may take 20-30 seconds. This will also happen after refilling the reservoir.
STEAM READY LIGHT
The steam ready light will flash while the iron is heating up. Wait until the steam ready light stops flashing before trying to steam iron. Note that operating the steam trigger will have no effect until the steam ready light stops flashing.
If this doesn't help to get steam, please see the product support page, via the link below for more help:

Hello Rusty424,
The supplier has advised the following for the Russell Hobbs Series 1 Steam Generator Iron 24420:
All the steam holes are functional. They’re arranged in a sort of pointed U-shape, following the shape of the edge of the iron. There are also various grooves and indents as well but these are not steam holes, some of them will aid the flow of the steam across the plate of the iron though.
Thank you for using Q&A.
