An essential appliance in every home, the iron is part of most people’s daily lives. However, when it comes to choosing one, we do not always opt for the appliance that best suits our needs. With this in mind, today we are sharing some tips to help you when making your purchase. With a range that includes steam irons, steam generator irons and irons with boilers, Flama offers different options that can easily adapt to your daily routine.
Curious? Read our advice and choose the ideal iron, with or without a boiler, for you!
Steam iron or iron with a boiler: which should you choose?
With a smaller water tank and lower steam output, irons are ideal for people who iron less frequently and/or smaller amounts of clothing. They are also smaller and therefore easier to store.
Irons with boilers, on the other hand, have a larger tank, making them more autonomous and suitable for people who iron larger amounts of clothing.
Is the soleplate material important?
As the part of the iron that comes into direct contact with your clothes, choosing the soleplate material is essential. The ideal soleplate is always the one that glides best over clothing and is least likely to stick to it. Aluminium soleplates generally have a greater tendency to stick to fabrics. Ceramic soleplates, on the other hand, are the least likely to stick to fabrics while also distributing heat effectively. Explore Flama’s range and find the many available options with ceramic soleplates.
Anti-scale system
This is a very important feature in an iron, given its steam production and the high risk of limescale build-up that results from it. It is therefore best to choose appliances equipped with this feature. Alternatively, whenever possible, try to maintain your appliance with the help of descaling products.
Should I choose irons with higher power?
Yes. The higher the appliance’s power, the greater its heat-generation capacity. As a result, the appliance’s steam jet and pressure will also be higher, making it easier to iron even the most difficult fabrics. With power ratings ranging from 2000W to 3000W, Flama offers a diverse range adapted to the needs of every family.
