Tefal High Pressure Steam Generator Iron, 135g/min Steam Output, Non-Stick Durilium Soleplate, 540g/min Steam Boost, 7.5-Pump Bars with Pro Express Protect Technology, White & Burgundy, (GV9220)

Amazing Iron , halved the ironing time ,powerful and plenty of steam , highly recommend

Bought this as a replacement for previous Tefal steam generator which was quite old. I like the fact that the iron is much lighter in weight. It does produce a lot of steam which can cause little droplets of water to collect on floor below ironing board. I am buying a new ironing board with steam repelling base material to see if I can reduce the water droplets. Need a new one anyway so this is why 5 stars given for iron.

Excellent ironfree moving light and creases just disappear

Opened box (damaged at one corner) removed polystyrene packaging, set up iron added water and switched on. It told me, water needed. Odd I thought but rinse and repeat - same message. It started to heat up next time but then stopped, same message but on seventh try it all worked OK . Instructions had told me that the message was because the water container (brand new...) needed cleaning, but no advice as to how. I guess some of the packaging, maybe particles of polystyrene, had got in somehow which begs questions about the packaging. Once working though, all very good - hope it remains so when next in use

Lightweight, fast and efficient. Tackles all surfaces with ease, best steam iron I have ever used.

This is a Brilliant steam iron I couldn't wait to try it out when it arrived. This iron was so easy to set up and effortless to use. It's very light when ironing and I like that you remove the water tank to fill and empty it with ease. I had my last Tefal iron for more than 10 years so I had to get another Tefal.

I was looking for a responsive and powerful steam iron to make easy work of our household laundry. After a considerable amount of research I chose this one and successfully ironed a dress (it worked perfectly). I then moved onto a white duvet cover and it spat out greasy, dirty water that stained the duvet cover. I have washed the duvet twice to try and get the stain out but as you can see it has completely ruined it.Needless to say, I will be sending this iron back which is a huge shame because it was otherwise perfect.

Every Iron I've owned breaks within 2 years due to the hard water in my area. In this case I've opted to use only distilled water - NOT deionised water. I hope this will prolong the life of this VERY expensive iron.I had a very cheap (£70) generator before, and this is a wold of difference. It is so powerful, the steam actually lifts the iron a little whist using it. It has a really easy to fill water tank, that holds 1.8L of water and lasts me a couple of weeks. It is also very easy to remove and put back. Just plug in and turn on. It takes up to 3 minutes to fire-up, but once up to temperature you can iron non stop for an eternity.There is no temperature setting for the iron head, and I've not tried delicates yet, but it seems to be good on synthetics that would melt under my old irons. The iron head glides nicely over all fabrics, and I've only needed to use a water spray (not included in this iron) once, for denim jeans that had been crumpled in the drier.The 'cable' between the base unit and the iron is a lot longer than on my last iron, which is great. You can also stand the iron head upright on your ironing board instead of having to return it to the unit as you do in many similar irons, which is also a massive plus.I'm struggling to think of any faults as of yet. Rest assured if I find any I will return and amend my review.I do emphasise the use of distilled water. I've been so disappointed with expensive steam irons in the past, but I've come to realise that if the water is not pure then they will always fail.Good luck if you choose to purchase!
