PurSteam SteamTech Elite 1750W Steam Iron, Digital Temp Control & LED Display, Ceramic Soleplate, Adjustable Steam, Self-Clean, Anti-Calc, Anti-Drip, Auto Shut-Off

This steam iron is EVERYTHING as advertised. It is light in weight, but powerful. I particularly like the digital "mode" display that provides the best application of heat and steam dependent upon the material. The ironing was smooth and easy. Steam was perfect for the variation of material I was ironing - linen, cotton, polyester blends, etc.All indicators on the steam iron and instructions were easy to use and follow.I recently purchased a Rowenta steam iron. The instructions were unnecessarily complicated, it had a "dial" type steam indicator that was hard to read from under the handle. The Rowenta was heavier. The instructions stated NOT to begin ironing until the power light indicator turned off. This is when the iron is supposed to reache the precise level of heat/steam. I waited 20 minutes for the light indicator to go off. The iron never got hot and it leaked water as a result of never reaching the desired temperature. I immediately returned the Rowenta and bought this iron. I am so happy I did.

I’ve been using this iron for about 2 months and so far, it’s been great. It heats up quickly, the ceramic soleplate glides smoothly, and the steam output is strong and consistent. The digital temperature control and LED display are easy to use and give it a high-end feel.I’ll admit I was a little hesitant at first since I didn’t recognize the brand, but it’s performed better than expected. No leaks, no weird quirks, just solid performance. Hopefully it holds up long term, because right now, it’s one of the best irons I’ve used at this price point.

The iron irons my clothes just fine, temperature is good, soleplate is smooth. Good price.Hand ergonomics: a little interesting; first of all, it's quite large and heavy. I think I prefer a smaller iron for nooks and crannies as I'm usually ironing around a collar, around buttons, around pockets, and hardly ever large areas like a bedsheet or pillowcase. I also think the area where you press your hand down on the handle is too far back. I usually want to press down on the tip around buttons (precision!), but the steam burst/water spray buttons are right there. The handle is positioned in a way that if you were to press down, you press on the heel of the iron. I would prefer they move all the controls and handle further forward relative to the soleplate.Steam function: Probably the worst feature on this iron. Works fine, but the anti-drip feature is a bimetallic 'popper' that will turn off the water flow from the tank onto the soleplate (creating steam) if the temperature is too low. You will hear this thing click on and off. It will not create steam (at all!) if it is popped into the closed mode. The manual claims that this is how they prevent drips when used on a lower heat. However, I think it's a little overzealous as you need it on nearly maximum temperature mode to generate any steam at all, otherwise the temp is too low for the popper to open. I think I would prefer the iron without this popper, risking drips instead.Worst case, I can still spritz the clothing with a spray bottle and iron it the old fashioned way, and it still generates "steam" by ironing damp clothing on a lower temp setting. 1700 watts is good enough to stay hot even ironing over cold, wet clothing. I'm sad that steam iron technology has not come further in the last 15 years (I had an old iron that similarly dripped and whatnot and I reverted to using a spray bottle... and that was 15 years ago).Self clean feature is a little weird, water doesn't flow out as fast as they seem to advertise. It just dumps water onto the hot soleplate and generates a lot of steam, which I believe could be effective at cleaning? But not fully convinced.Lastly, they claim you can use tap water in it and not to use distilled water, but I am calling their bluff as an "amateur" chemist (took several chemistry courses throughout college... I know) - there is no way distilled water is more corrosive than tap water. If it ends up leaking/failing due to my usage of distilled water, I will update this review; in the meantime I will enjoy zero calcification.

Awesome price. Lightweight. Compare this iron to the other irons that are approx double in price. Don't waste your money. This is top of the line quality. Doesn't the money you save on something for yourself. I'm sure we deserve it. RegardsAlso, this is meant to be a "5" star review, but I couldn't get the 1st star in the lineup to cooperate.

The Pursteam SteamBurst+ has completely upgraded my ironing game. It heats up fast, and the ceramic soleplate glides effortlessly over all types of fabric from delicate shirts to heavy jeans. The adjustable steam settings and burst of steam function are especially handy for stubborn wrinkles. I also love the built-in self-clean and anti-calc features it gives me peace of mind knowing it’ll last longer with minimal maintenance. The anti-drip system actually works too, so no more annoying water spots on clothes. This iron feels solid and well-built, but still comfortable to handle.
