Irons

Irons are simple but extremely useful appliances that have come a long way from antiquity to the present day. In a recognizable form, they have existed since the 14th century and have evolved greatly due to the development of technology. Changes affected both the appearance and tasks, and ways to solve them. Irreplaceable household helpers are used to tidy up clothes, bed linen and other textiles, responsible for the perfect appearance. Unlike the simplest ironing machines, ultra-modern functional devices provide comprehensive care, easily cope with any fabric and guarantee an unsurpassed result. Also, they are significantly distinguished by thoughtful ergonomics, improved design for safe ironing, advanced functionality and the ability to configure settings, reduced energy consumption, and the widest model range.

Available from white, black and red to multi-colored, glossy and matte, with a transparent body, with a textured finish and other distinctive features. All of them are conditionally divided into two types according to their intended purpose - for home and professional use (characterized by maximum performance and technical equipment). Among them there are various types that differ in design features and functionality:

● without steam - classic, the simplest and cheapest, smoothing is carried out solely due to temperature effects;
● with steam - one of the most popular, without fail equipped with a water tank and greatly simplifies the work, suitable for the most delicate products;
● steamer - designed for steaming, used for both shirts and curtains, curtains without removing from the eaves, almost indispensable for large daily volumes;
● cordless - no cord, mobile and practical, periodically heats up when placed on a special stand, and the rest of the time it keeps warm and does not hinder movement;
● road - designed for travel and travel, has a compact size and low weight, often with a folding handle and only basic features;
● with a steam generator - complex devices compared to conventional steam counterparts, provide powerful steam supply, smooth out wrinkles even on too wrinkled, dense and rough fabrics;
● ironing system - a universal complex with advanced options includes a complete set of ironing equipment.
Features of the right choice of iron or ironing system
It is not difficult to pick up and buy an iron in Ukraine. Its key characteristic is power, which determines the heating rate, efficiency and speed of achieving perfect smoothness. For example, for infrequent use on the road, up to 1000 watts is enough. If, on the contrary, you often have to iron a lot at home, it is better to purchase an electrical appliance with a power of at least 2000 watts. Another important criterion is the sole material:
● aluminum - valued for its relatively low price, lightness and high thermal conductivity;
● steel - a little more expensive than aluminum alloys, but much more practical and durable due to resistance to mechanical stress;
● stainless steel - superior anti-corrosion properties;
● ceramics - heats up fairly quickly and evenly, glides well, is energy efficient, easy to clean with a damp cloth;
● Titanium is one of the strongest metals, but it is very heavy and heats up slowly.
To improve reliability, the main element is usually coated. Heat-treated anodized aluminum improves strength and glide performance. Ceramic-metal coating perfectly withstands impacts and other mechanical stresses, while Teflon coating prevents damage to demanding things.
What else to consider when buying
Most irons are produced with a narrow spout, a groove for buttons, rounded corners at the “stern”, and a relief surface. They minimize friction, reach hard-to-reach places, get rid of wrinkles as close to the fittings as possible, and prevent creasing when moving backwards. In various modifications, there are the following main modes:
● vertical steaming - intended for vertical ironing without contact and very gentle on the fibers;
● steam boost - short-term enhanced supply under high pressure helps to eliminate difficult creases at the touch of a button;
● constant steam - automatically enters through numerous holes for the fastest softening of naughty material;
● spout delivery - promotes occasional humidification with a spray nozzle located on the spout.
Particular attention should be paid to equipment.
You can order an iron with automatic temperature setting, with auto-off, with an overlay for delicate fabrics, self-cleaning from scale. More advanced ones have an anti-drip system to protect against water leakage. Convenient search and comparison options, a detailed description, photos and reviews will help you choose equipment with the desired functions and parameters. If you need help, qualified consultants are ready to clarify the details of interest.
