Pro Express Protect High Pressure Steam Generator Iron, 1.8 L Capacity, 7.5 Bar, 140 g/min continuous steam & 560 g/min steam boost, 2600 Watt, Removable Scale Collector, Burgundy & Black GV9230

This is a nice iron, at the expensive end of the scale. It looks sleek and smart, and is very efficient. Both the power cord and the steam cord are long enough to enable easy use, even if the base is on the floor. It heats up to temperature quickly. The base is easy to fill with water and the steam button is extremely sensitive, delivering a lot of steam almost instantly. While I wouldn't say my ironing time has been halved, it has certainly become easier and quicker. There isn't a temperature control dial/button (corresponding to the 'spots' guide on clothing labels), but the temperature appears, so far, to be suitable for all fabrics, so if you don't like having to remember to change the settings this is ideal. For me, there is one con: This is an expensive and well designed iron, but the designers neglected to include power cord storage. The steam cord slides in to a slot on the side, but there is nowhere for the power cord to be stored neatly out of the way. Wherever I try to put it, it isn't securely stored - and could possibly cause a problem if the iron is stored in a limited space as it could get caught on other items. I'm surprised the designers didn't think of this. It also spoils the overall look. However, it's a very good iron and I would recommend.

The Tefal Pro Express Protect High Pressure is an excellent product. Very powerful steam, fast heat-up, and outstanding ironing results. It makes ironing quick and effortless, even on thick fabrics. Build quality feels premium and it works flawlessly. I’m extremely satisfied and highly recommend it.

This is a good steam generator iron, but not great. On the plus side, it generates a lot of steam, the iron itself is lightweight and the removable water tank is a great feature. The auto-temperature feature also works very well. The negatives for me are all design-related. Starting with the controls, these are the 'blister' type, so no real positive feedback when you press them, the labels for the controls are printed in white text on a silver background (some are backlit when in use), so can be difficult to see. The iron sits lower on the base unit than the design suggests, which takes a bit of getting used to, and if you stand the iron vertically, the integrated stand is prone to allowing the iron to fall backwards due to its light weight. The steam button is also very sensitive, resulting in steam being dispensed when you might not intend (and you get a lot of steam...). All that said, the hose length is very good and the integrated cord storage does work quite well. Too early to tell how durable this unit will be, and I suspect the blister controls will stop working before anything else does. Not sure I'd pay the full price for it, but it's often discounted and therefore worth considering.

This is probably the best iron on the market. I found it impossible to find in the shops and when I did, a cheaper model was all that was was available for a much higher price. The iron is light and delivers super fast results. Brilliant iron. Cannot recommend it highly enough

Had similar Tefal model for 15+ years but it died, that was excellent but this one is a league above, much better steam pressure and volume. Effortless. Confusing no. of models, so choose carefully ... differences are not obvious

Very good powerful iron which produces excellent results. Not for the faint hearted though.

We’ve had this iron for quite a while now, and I’ve finally decided it’s time to share my thoughts on it. As a household of three, we use it regularly, and it has proven to be a fantastic purchase! While it was a bit more expensive than some alternatives, I can confidently say it’s worth every penny. The performance is outstanding, making the task of ironing much easier and more efficient. Next time we need a new iron, I will definitely consider the Tefal steam generator range again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality iron!

This is the most expensive iron I have ever bought but wish I’d bought it sooner. I have halved my ironing time and it’s a dream with duvet covers. The electric cable and iron cable is long, so I’m not moving my ironing board closer to the socket any more. Absolutely love it

Highly recommended

I have now used this steam iron 3 times and I can say the iron offers value for money. On the plus side, it does heat up quickly, holds plenty of water and the steam generation is on demand and about 80% of what I would want in terms of steam power alone. On the downside, I wish the iron were a tad heavier, when standing the iron up, it does not give confidence and I am expecting it to fall over, it hasn't done so yet but its a matter of time. I also wish it had temprature control, for most day to day stuff its ok, but for linen or duvet covers it lacks the heat. Also, there is no stowage for the power lead, again at higher end models you do get this, so I guess you get what you pay for.

This is terrible. After only 6 months, the iron is staining my clothes with rust... I will chase the manufacturer in order to return the iron. I hope It is still possible. It is totally not worth the price.
