Top specs

  • Steam Output (Continuous)

    Continuous steam is your everyday "ally." It is the steady amount of steam (in grams per minute) that the iron releases as you move it. The higher the number, the easier it is to smooth out clothes without needing to apply pressure with your hand.

    120

    "The sweet spot" for most families. It easily softens cotton clothes and sheets.

  • Power

    2400

    The absolute "sweet spot"! With this power, the water heats up much faster and the soleplate does not easily lose its temperature, even when you keep pressing the steam button continuously. It is the perfect choice if you iron often and want the iron to keep up with your fast pace, without "hesitating" or cooling down in between.

  • Steam Boost

    Boost is the "superpower" you call on when you come across a very stubborn crease that just won’t smooth out, or when you want to iron a curtain vertically. It is an instant, huge amount of steam that literally lifts the fibers of the fabric.

    360

    It quickly removes most stubborn wrinkles from shirts and trousers.

    Excellent! Especially compared to the previous one that was made to torture people (Juno Pro! Heats up quickly, you can see the water level, you can refill it while ironing if it runs out, and it's designed in such a way that you can rest it on the ironing board for a long time, so your hand doesn't get tired lifting it up and down from its base. It glides comfortably over the clothes; for the first time in my life, I enjoy ironing!

    Finally, after 6 months of use, it started leaking water from the plate. I contacted 2 different services and after 3 months the result is the same. Instead of ironing the clothes, it just dampens them. I am so disappointed because after so many years of using Siemens, this is the only model that I just want to throw away. I really regret my money.
