Powerful, Burn-Free Ironing
OptimalTEMP for Guaranteed Burn-Free Use
This iron uses OptimalTEMP technology, so there’s no need to adjust temperature settings between fabric types. Because Philips guarantees it won’t burn any ironable fabric, you can leave it resting on your ironing board or clothes without worry, even mid-session.
High-Pressure Steam with 550g Boost
A maximum steam pressure of 8 bar drives steam deep into fabrics, while the steam boost function reaches up to 550g per minute for stubborn creases.
Meanwhile, continuous steam output of 130g per minute handles everyday ironing tasks efficiently. Therefore, this iron works equally well for tough, deep-set wrinkles and routine touch-ups.
Product Highlights
The SteamGlide Advanced soleplate glides smoothly across all fabric types while resisting scratches, so it stays in good condition over years of use. Because the built-in anti-calc collector and automatic anti-calc function prevent scale buildup, performance stays consistent without extra maintenance.
A large, transparent detachable water tank shows you exactly how much water remains and refills easily through a large filling door, giving extended continuous ironing before a refill is needed. Additionally, the vertical steam function removes wrinkles from hanging garments, curtains and upholstery without needing an ironing board.
