Spec me an iron - Page 3

EDIT: so far I've only ironed 3 shirts, 1 top and a pair of trousers but on the whole it is an excellent item, huge improvement over the old iron we had. It doesn't have a squirt option which was a bit confusing to start with but the steam really does the job and the creases go very quickly.

I have a philips one (can't remember the model number) but it's brilliant, fully adjustable for the amount of steam/temperature etc... However I'm quite sad and enjoy ironing my clothes - do it in front of the tv or music and just get on with it!!! I have to iron them for work anyway so it's part of the process - doesnt' take long for half a dozen shirts and some t-shirts half an hour max.

Non iron shirts and hang them up

(never tumble dried either)

Failing that I look like a slob and work twice as hard

I enjoy ironing too, worked my way through most of Band of Brothers getting it done.

Strewth! It takes me 10-15 mins to iron 1 shirt! Either I have a severe case of OCD, am unordinarily slow or you Sir are some sort of ironing demon!

Probably OCD then

Though more likely a lack of practice? I've been ironing my own clothes for a good dozen years or more and just find it really easy, but surprisingly relaxing

But I like the thought of being an ironing demon

I still haven't bought one but I'm still seriously considering it, the top of the the range ones are about £100 on ebay
