    Would like to know about this too!
  • Just picked one up from my local Droylsden branch of Kwik Save.

    It's a Prima PSS002 (Google didn't find it)

    2200Watts
    700ml tank
    1.2bar Pressure
    70g Steam Strength

    Looks good to me. Will get it tested after dinner.

  • Well...after an hour of ironing I'm pretty impressed. Took a couple of mins to heat up and then we were off.

    Steam isn't constant, there's a large button that sits naturally under the thumb that calls up a more or less constant steam supply, just breezed through a basket load of shirts, trousers, t-shirts & jeans, MUCH faster than my regular iron.

    Very quiet in use, the only noise if the gentle hiss of the steam blasting through the creases. My living room window is however a bit on the steamed up side right now. What will the neighbours be thinking?

    For only £14.99 this thing is fantasic.

    not really sure why this has generated such little interest? i bought the iron yesterday, went home and breezed through the ironing, it's fab! It's also only £14.99 compared to the one in aldi which is far more expensive, yet the aldi thread has much more interest - bizarre.

    anyway, as I said, this iron is excellent!
